Diana’s pov
“You stop!”
Avia shouted behind me.
But I didn’t stop my steps.
“I said stop. Didn’t you hear me? Healer! How dare you ignore me?”
Avia soon realized that her shouting was of no use to me, so she could only seek help from Nathan.
So, just as I was about to push open the door and walk out, Nathan spoke up.
“Healer, I apologize to you on behalf of Avia.”
I paused and turned to look at him.
“I don’t understand. Why are you apologizing on her behalf?”
Nathan fell silent.
After a moment, he said in a deep voice, “Because Avia is about to become my fiancée. I have reason to apologize on her behalf.”
Although I had already learned about this news last night and even received an invitation, when Nathan told me this personally, my heart still pricked uncontrollably.
Fortunately, I have become accustomed to this pain amidst repeated disappointments.
“If I got it right, ‘about to become your fiancée‘ means that she is not yet your fiancée, right?”
Nathan frowned and remained silent.
“So, you’re not qualified to apologize for her. If you want me to treat her, let her apologize to me personally.”
My tone was beyond doubt.
Avia’s expression had originally improved a lot due to Nathan’s words, and she was even proud.
However, when she heard what I said, her expression froze instantly.
Nathan sighed and whispered to Avia, “Apologize to Healer.”
“Nathan, I…”
“Apologize!” Nathan’s voice became much harsher, “Do you want to die?”
Avia obviously didn’t want to apologize to me, but she was afraid of death, very afraid.
“I’m sorry,” She said angrily to me after a few seconds.
Perhaps the word “said” was not accurate. Because in decibels, it was clearly a “roar“.
I held my arms and looked at her with a lazy and relaxed posture.
Then, in her angry gaze, I said calmly, “Your attitude doesn’t seem like an apology, so I don’t accept it.”
“What are you saying? Do you really think you’re some kind of savior? I’ll tell you, 1…”
“Avia!” Nathan interrupted her coldly and ordered, “Apologize to Healer again. Be polite.”
Avia was about to cry in anger. Her eyes and nose turned red, and her lips turned white from biting.
But in the end, she still chose to compromise.
“Healer, I’m sorry, please forgive me.” Avia bowed and said in a tone that suppressed her resentment.
I smiled faintly.
–“My gaze
“It’s okay, I forgive you. I hope there won’t be another time, otherwise turned to Nathan, “Even if you become Alpha Nathan’s fiancée, or even his wife, I won’t save you.”
Avia trembled fiercely, her face turning pale.
“I, I know,” she said in humiliation.
When I was giving Avia an examination, I saw three cuts on her wrist and raised my eyebrows.
“Did you try to commit suicide?” I asked.
Avia’s eyes immediately tinged with sadness.
“Yes… You don’t know what I’ve experienced. Before yesterday, I even didn’t want to live…” Avia looked at Nathan, her sadness turning into happiness and sweetness. “But now, Nathan gave me the motivation to live. I think I can face this world again.” Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
The two exchanged affectionate glances.
I shouldn’t have disturbed such a good atmosphere, but I couldn’t resist it.
“Actually…” I smiled awkwardly, “Your wounds look grim, but they are far from the arteries and cannot cause any harm.”
Avia’s expression gradually froze.
I chose to ignore it and pressed a spot on her wrist, saying seriously, “Next time, you can cut here and cut harder. I guarantee you will achieve your wish and leave this world soon. There will even be no time for rescue.”
Avia suddenly withdrew her arm.
“What do you mean?” She stuttered, “Are you implying I’m pretending to commit suicide?”
I spread my hands and said innocently, “I’ve never said that, miss. What are you panicked about?”
“I, I panicked?” Avia swallowed frantically, “I just, just…”
“That’s enough.” Nathan’s impatient voice rang in the ward. He pinched his brow and said, “I’ll go out. Let me know when the results come out.”
After speaking, he walked towards the door with an indifferent expression.
Avia called him from behind, but he ignored it.
With a loud bang, the door was closed, isolating his figure from the ward.
Avia gave me a fierce glare. She wanted to scold me, but considering that I was currently the only person who could save her life, she could only hold back all her anger.
After completing all the examinations for Avia, I left her ward.
Nathan sat on the bench in the hallway, burying his face in his palms, exuding a sense of exhaustion.
I walked up to him and lowered my eyes to look at him.
I didn’t understand. He was about to get engaged to his beloved Avia. Why was he still unhappy?
“Alpha Nathan.”
Nathan raised his head, and I saw blood in his eyes.
“Finished?” He asked.
“Hmm.”
“What’s the result?” Nathan’s tone was like asking about something official. I couldn’t hear any of his concern for Avia.
But this obviously had nothing to do with me.
I was just a doctor, and my responsibility was to treat and save people.
“The situation is not good, but it’s not too bad either. Diana has handed me the formula. I believe a new antidote will be developed soon.”
Nathan’s lips moved.
I was taken aback and didn’t hear him clearly.
“What are you saying?” I asked.
“Has, has Diana received my engagement invitation?”
My hands, hidden in my pockets, unconsciously clenched into fists. I forced myself to not react and only nodded coldly.
“What…what was her reaction?” Nathan’s voice became increasingly hoarse.
I frowned.
I was wondering. Shouldn’t Nathan care about Avia now? Why did he ask about my reaction?
Did my reaction have anything to do with him?
Did he care?
“Diana didn’t react much,” I said lightly. “She asked me to tell you and Avia congratulations.”
“She asked you to congratulate me?” Nathan seemed incredulous.
So I nodded firmly and said, “Yes, so you don’t have to worry about her pestering you and damaging your relationship with Avia anymore.”
The light in Nathan’s eyes completely dimmed, as if his soul had been drained from him.
I couldn’t understand his reaction anymore. I shook my head and said, “If you don’t have any other questions, I’ll go back first.”
Nathan lowered his head without answering.
I walked towards the elevator and happened to meet a colleague from the laboratory on the way.
“Healer!” She ran up to me and waved eagerly, “I didn’t even come to greet you yesterday when you came back. Thanks to the formula you brought back, we were able to develop a new antidote. We…”
“Wait a moment!” I quickly interrupted her.
At the same time, I turned around and looked at Nathan in panic.
