After the two had their dinner, Nina thought Percy was heading home, but she realized the car was not heading in that direction. Hence, she got curious and asked, "Where are we going now?"

"To the hospital," replied Percy.

"Are you not feeling well?" Nina asked anxiously. She looked at him and noticed that he seemed fine. There were no signs of discomfort. Suddenly, something came into her mind, and she asked, "Are you going to visit Pierre?"

"Yeah, just to check on him. You don't have to come up. Can you wait for me in the car downstairs for a while?" asked Percy. He had not visited Pierre since he came out of the detention ward. Percy planned to pay him a visit since the hospital was nearby.

However, when Percy heard Nina’s tone a moment ago, he hesitated and intended to ask for her opinion.

"If you don't want to go to the hospital, we can go home.”

It would be the same if he went later.

Nina shook her head and replied, "No need. Just go, but I won't go up. I'll wait for you downstairs in the hospital."

"Alright." Percy gave her a gentle smile. Nina was always so considerate.

Even though Pierre had done many wrong things to her before, she endured everything for Percy.

What the Island of Despair did to Pierre was a form of revenge for Nina.

His younger brother had been too arrogant and had done too many wrong things. He deserved some punishment.

Percy drove to the hospital and parked the car in the hospital parking lot.

Nina unbuckled her seatbelt and pointed to a café nearby. She said, "I'll wait for you in the café for a while, okay?"

"Sure, I'll just talk to him for a bit and then leave. It won't take long. But if it gets too late and if you're thirsty, order some juice instead of coffee so that you can sleep at night.” Percy remembered her sensitivity to coffee. Just a little in the evening would keep her awake.

"Okay. Got it." Nina nodded, agreeing. Then, they parted ways.
