Chapter 12: Meeting the Mysterious Man Again

Finally, when the time came, she made her way to the far end of the VIP ward, heading for the man's room.

As she approached, her steps faltered when she noticed two familiar figures standing outside his door, the male nurses that day.

One of them was the mysterious man, still seated in his wheelchair, his dark eyes focused intently on the board. The other was a young male doctor in a white lab coat, a playful grin on his face.
