“I believe you,” Axel replied in a single word, gripping her palm ever tighter. The realization hit him-this explained why she was so
jumpy. He had noticed it himself. Whenever he encountered her-or walked across the street from her, there seemed to be

The puppy, sensing its owner’s return, bounded over, wagging its tail in sheer excitement, seeking attention and affection. Axel
obliged, squatting down to stroke the furry companion. That wouldn’t do, he concluded. For some reasons, he still felt a sense of
restlessness thinking of just how terrible the night might have turned if he hadn’t been there. That thought alone made him panic.
With a determined sigh, Axel retrieved his phone, dialing Ethan’s number, “Have my car sent back; I need it,” he stated, the
urgency evident in his voice. “Fine,” Ethan curtly replied.
“I have the butler drop it off later tonight,” Ethan added.
Axel, sensing Ethan’s evasiveness, inquired further, “Where are you?” A brief pause followed before Ethan cryptically responded
ignoring the question, “You’ll get your car before tomorrow morning,” with that he hung
up.
Ethan’s gaze lingered on the top floors of the hospital, his mind filled with a tumultuous mix of emotions. The twins, Daisy’ and
Liam, occupied his thoughts like a persistent echo. Despite having arrived at the hospital. some time ago, he remained seated in
his car, grappling with the conflicting feelings that surged within him. Earlier that afternoon, instead of spending precious
moments with the twins, he had abruptly left, leaving a trail of unresolved tension in his wake. Now, a sense of regret gnawed at
him as he pondered over his actions. He needed to talk to Hazel, to unravel the complexities that seemed to entwine their lives.

With a determined breath, Ethan finally extricated himself from the confines of the car. He decided it was time to be honest, to
confront the emotions that had festered for too long. The yearning to be with Daisy and Liam. had become insistent, and he
couldn’t bear the distance any longer.
Ethan?” Hazel’s voice echoed with surprise as she encountered him minutes later at the entrance of their
room.
“Hey.” He replied, a subtle nervousness lingering in his demeanor.
“Hi.” She replied, but he noticed the curiosity in her gaze. Ethan’s presence at that late hour seemed unusual, especially after his
abrupt departure earlier in the day.
“It’s pretty late, why are you here this late?” She probed, her eyes searching for an explanation. Ethan, caught off guard, could
not conjure a plausible reason for his unexpected return.
Ethan only stared at her, his mind grappling with the absence of a coherent excuse for being there. Finally, he cleared his throat.
