"Greg!" Gregory hurriedly responded, "I'm here." I was both angry and heartbroken.

He smiled at me, even though beads of sweat had formed on the tip of his nose.

When Dr. Andrews was treating his wound, I saw him wince.

He was trying to bear it, but sreactions are just involuntary.

I turned away, unable to bear watching him in pain and admittedly, a bit upset.

Gregory signaled Dr. Andrews to hurry up.

Once Dr. Andrews had skillfully finished up, he left Gregory andalone in the room.

Gregory grabbed my hand, but I pulled away, only to hear him hiss in pain. I immediately turned back, "You okay?" "Never better." Gregory wrapped his arms around my waist, pullinginto a hug.

I was about to protest when I heard his hoarse voice, "Jane, it hurts." I froze, knowing all too well this was one of his schemes.

"Serves you right." "Yeah." Gregory played along, "I deserve it." "Then stop being mad, and take care of me, okay?" "I'm so pitiful." Fine.

Seeing I didn't respond, Gregory nuzzled into my neck, like a big dog seeking its owner's comfort.

It wasn't anger I felt, but deep concern.

Now, how could I resist him? I looked up at him, "No more next times." "Deal, I promise." Afterward, we headed htogether.

Dinner was unsatisfying, so we picked up spastries on the way back.

I bit into a pistacpastry Gregory offered, asking, “Lucius hasn't returned?" "He's dealing with the aftermath with Dailey," Gregory replied truthfully.

I paused, "There's something I need to tell you." Before I could continue, he guessed, "Advise Christine not to put all her eggs in one basket." "Stop it, you just want to win that bet about who gets married first." Gregory huggedcloser, laughing, “How can I ever keep anything from you? But, I've been wondering." "What?" I asked.

"Whenever someone spoke ill of Christine, you'd defend her. Why didn't you say anything this twhen Dailey crossed the line?" I pursed my lips, "Because I know Dailey didn't want Christine to move abroad. I didn't want that either. You getting hurt shows how dangerous it can be." "Exceptional circumstances call for exceptional measures." "But Dailey did hurt Christine, and she's decided to stop chasing him.” "You must be thrilled, your bet looks like a win." As soon as I finished speaking, he raised an eyebrow, a smile playing on his lips, "Are you proposing to me?" Shameless! On the weekend, Gregory and I visited the Myers family.

Ramona was already waiting at the door with apple pies.

"You look much better today." She glanced at Gregory, "Indeed, love is the best medicine." "Once you returned, she recovered." "Ramona..." I was embarrassed, as if I couldn't live without Gregory.

Though, it seemed somewhat true.

"It was Dr. Brown's medicine. His expertise is commendable." Ramona didn't burst my bubble, "As long as you're well, that's all that matters." She handedthe pie, “Just seeing you eases my mind, go on now." "Alright." I knew Ramona was aware of my reluctance to see Victor.

Seeing her well also putat ease.

After exchanging a few more words, Gregory and I left.

Upon returning to Elmwood Villas, we saw Lucius, whom we hadn't seen in days.

"Gregory, everything's been taken care of." Lucius glanced at me, hesitating, "Jane..." Gregory gave him a cold look, "What, you forgot how to speak English after a few days abroad?" Lucius stumbled over his words, "Uh, Mr. Clarkson, well, got a bit hurt." Gregory immediately understood, "Serious?" Lucius pondered, to lie toon Gregory's behalf and risk my anger, or to be honest and face Gregory's. But my anger was decidedly more daunting.

"Not serious, but he's hospitalized. Maybe he's waiting for someone to visit." Gregory drew out his response with a "Hmm." I observed their performance silently.

After Lucius said his piece, he quickly excused himself.
