The air in the spacious corridor hung heavy.

Jasper was stung by the sight of Alyssa leaning weakly in Jameson’s arms. Tears welled up in his eyes.

Jasper thought that Alyssa’s relationship with Jameson developed speedily during his absence. Feeling bitter, he stared at his feet and tightened his grip on Newton’s wheelchair handle.

Jameson did not flinch at Newton and Jasper’s presence. He addressed Alyssa with affection and

concern, “Lyse, you’ve just completed a difficult surgery. You’re exhausted and need rest. I’ll send you

Jasper pursed his lips after he was ignored by Alyssa. She seemed only to have eyes for Jameson.

“I’m fine. It’s just a heart issue. It flared up, so Jasper insisted on sending me to the hospital at night,”

His heart leaped into his throat. “What?”

She refrained from interrogating him. She slowly rose from the bench and announced, “I’m hungry. I’ll go get some food.”

Worried about her, Jameson rose from the bench and said, “I’ll go with you.”

Suddenly, Alyssa pressed against her forehead. She felt dizzy, nauseous, and frail. Due to a lack of food intake, her blood sugar was dangerously low, causing her to suffer from fainting spells.

Thankfully, Jameson quickly held her, saving her from a fall. “Lyse…”

A familiar voice echoed in the hallway. “Alice?”
