"My teacher didn't feel well today, so he asked me to take his place. I'm sorry that I didn't inform you sooner." He bowed his head respectfully. He was a young doctor, so he was already used to first introductory hostilities, especially from those who initially doubted his abilities.
"Okay," Mason reluctantly agreed, opening the door.
However, instead of the initial thought of leaving her alone with the doctor, Mason followed him all the way up to the bedroom.
Just one glance at the woman in the bed, the doctor finally understood why Mason had been acting so cautiously. He'd never seen such a stunner before. She had delicate facial features, looking like a nymph who'd just been drawn from the lake. She looked so frail as well, looking as if one wrong move, and he might be able to break her arms.
The doctor turned away from the woman, once he felt Mason's glare behind his back.
Without another word, he went on to work. He placed her on the drip as soon as possible. Since taking her temperature required close contact, it was usually Mason who did it. The doctor had never thought that he'd be handing a female patient in Mason's house. Maybe next time it would be more logical for him to send for a female doctor.
Bella lazily blinked her eyes, seeing her mother in a dazed state. She reached out to grab Manson's hand. "Mommy," she said hoarsely. "Don't go."
Stunned, Mason glanced at her tender fingers wrapped around his wrist and then at her knitted eyebrows. After some hesitation, he held her hand and gently touched her forehead.
Bella couldn't help but snuggle into the hand that held her forehead.
Seeing her rubbing against his palm, Mason froze in sight.
The moment the doctor saw Mason's smitten face, he turned and left the room as fast as he could.
If he stayed any longer, he'd lose his job.
Sitting beside her, Mason wiped her tears and gazed at her lovingly.
The last time she met him was two years ago, and he had sex with her in the darkness. And she showed up the very same night he came out to search for her.
It seemed that the faiths were on his side. Bella was unique to him, and he couldn't help but love her for it. It seemed that the time they spent away had only given him more time to fall for her.
When Mason entered his company, his assistant, Mark Liang, was confused. He couldn't help but notice how happy his boss was. He was about to ask him why, but he immediately restrained himself.
"Bella Su," Mason said in a low voice. "Find out what you can about her. The more, the better."
Raising his eyebrows, Mark Liang smiled. "Sure, boss. Last night, you... "
When Mason raised his gaze, all emotions disappeared. "Are you curious?"
"No, it's just that... you've never really..."
"It's important. I just want to know her as soon as possible. How's my brother?" He later admitted of his feelings for the woman to avoid any misunderstanding between him and Mark Liang.
Mark Liang knew what Mason meant.
"He's still in a coma. Mrs. Ye has been urging us to find out the situation in the Su Family." Mark looked Mason up and down, noticing that he seemed different today.
