"I know Dr. Lydia is kind-hearted. But the fact remains you saved me, and not only that, you broughthere for treatment. All these favors combined, I'd be indebted to you for life, yet all I'm asking is to take you out for a meal. Is that too much to ask?" Ethan said, looking hurt.
He's at it again! Lydia rolled her eyes at him, "I don't want to have dinner!" "Fine, how about I dedicate myself to you then?" Ethan joked.
