Chapter 5

I began to doubt whether I was overthinking things.

Until a phone call came in.

Conrad pulled me along, walking somewhat hastily, and I felt something was off.

When we arrived at his place, he saw his girlfriend lying on the floor and looked very anxious.

I said, "Let me take a look at her first."

Conrad's girlfriend clutched her stomach, yelling not to let me touch her.

She clung to Conrad, adamantly refusing to let me examine her.

Conrad couldn't persuade her and insisted on taking her to the hospital.

I had no choice but to accompany them to the hospital.

We ran into the intern doctor Fintan, who told me breathlessly that there was a patient with severe bleeding who needed my help.

After a busy night, I finally finished the surgery.

I rubbed my throbbing head and called Soren, but the call was disconnected.

I tried again, but the phone was turned off.

My heart sank. Surely Soren wasn't with Felicity right now?
