Percy looked at Nina, who lay peacefully on the hospital bed.

She nodded and spoke in a low, gentle voice, "Go. We're in the hospital. Nothing will happen to me."

When he heard her, Percy stood up and walked out of the ward with Luke.

Luca approached the hospital bed and looked at Nina's thin face. It was pale and ashen. "You've lost a lot of weight."

"I couldn't eat when I was there, so naturally, I lost weight." Nina looked at the person in front of her. She could not stop crying when she thought of how Percy was right in front of her as soon as she woke up.

When she saw Luca, she was completely relieved and knew that she was truly safe.

Luca sat on the chair beside the bed and held Nina's frail hand. "After you're discharged, you need to make up for the weight you've lost and eat more food so that you can get back to how you were before."

"I'll eat more if you're the one cooking for me!" Nina was more relaxed when Luca was around. She did not want Luca to worry about her, so she pretended to be at ease and joked.

Luca poked her forehead and asked, "Did Mr. Percy take you to the hospital?"

"Yeah. If it weren't for him, I'd still be sick and stuck in the villa. Luca, if I wasn't on my period, Pierre would've gotten to me. During my time there, I thought about everything that had happened. I was overwhelmed with endless grief and fear. I regretted being so willful and thinking that I could solve everything by myself. In the end, it was Percy who helped me solve all of my troubles. I'm not that capable..." Nina told Luca the things she had thought about over the last few days.

Luca nodded with a smile on her face. "Yes, Mr. Percy has put in a lot of thought and time for you but you didn't notice it before."

"I see it now. Luca, do you think it's still possible for me and him?" Nina hesitated for a few seconds before she asked.

After she went through everything that she did, she saw the truth that she had tried to bury and knew that Percy held a special place in her heart.
