Percy listened to her screams and hugged her silently. "Don't be scared. We're going to the hospital now. You'll feel more comfortable once we get there."

Nina heard his reassuring words and subconsciously grabbed the corner of his clothes. She was scared that he would disappear as soon as she loosened her grip.

‘It's not a dream, is it... Percy came to my rescue...'

Nina said nothing. Percy hugged her tightly until she arrived at the hospital.

Johann had arranged for someone to wait for Nina at the hospital's entrance. Percy got out of the car and felt Nina grip him tighter when he wanted to place her on the stretcher.

"Nina, we're at the hospital now. The doctor will take care of you." Percy noticed her unease and reassured her.

Nina shook her head and said, "Don't leave me. I'm scared..."

When he heard that, Percy felt as though his heart shattered.

"Okay, I won't let you go. I'll carry you in." Percy carried Nina in his arms and walked to the hospital.

The doctor who was on stand-by said when he saw that Percy refused to put Nina on the stretcher, "Sir, put the patient on the stretcher so that it'll be easier on you. It's a less bumpy journey for the patient as well."

Nina quickly grabbed Percy's shirt where his chest was when she heard what the doctor said.

"No, I'm fine. Just lead the way." Percy turned down the doctor's offer.

The doctor had no choice but to trot in front to lead the way after seeing how persistent Percy was.

Johann was waiting for them in the consultation room. He was slightly startled to see that Nina was carried in by Percy instead of a stretcher.

"This is..." He noticed the sweat on Percy's forehead. "Aren't you tired from carrying her all the way here?"

"I'm not tired. Quick, help her get rid of the fever," Percy said as he tried to place Nina on the bed in the consultation room.
