"Come on, Noah. I just need a change of pace or something. I'll feel much better if I can go outside. My leg is already improving and strong enough to go for a walk. I would just really, really love to have dinner outside. Please, Noah? Can you do that for me?"
With her arms hooked onto his arm, Carla looked at him, seeming as though she was pleading with her eyes, trying to urge him to take her somewhere else.
She almost had Noah convinced, but he was able to resist it. Left with no other options, Carla had to bring out the ace up her sleeve. Forcing a cough to clear her throat, she told him with an alluring voice, "Noah... Noah? Pretty please... Just this once, please take me out."
Staying in the ward for so long felt extremely suffocating for her. For that reason, she desperately wanted to get out of the hospital no matter what just to breathe some fresh air and have a change of scenery.
Noah had been caught completely off guard. The sound of her voice was like music to his ears, and it was enough to ignite his passion.
"So, Noah, would it be alright if I take your silence as a yes? It's all settled then! And let me just remind you that you can't go back on your word. Let's make a pinky promise to set it in stone,"
Carla remarked, smiling from ear to ear. Then, as he was still inside a trance, she grabbed his hand and made a pinky swear.
If he was completely being honest, Noah used to think that after coming across a number of attractive women, he was already capable of holding back his urges when it came to pretty faces. Being a simple man, however, as he peered into the eyes of the girl holding his hand, it was quite apparent that he had lost this battle with love entirely.
The second Carla called his name to him felt so endearing, making him feel like he would be willing to offer his heart to her.
"Okay, okay. You win. I'll take you out and we will dine in the best restaurant in all of HA City," Noah responded, accepting defeat.
Finding it so hard to say no, he had to make a deal with her.
He was planning to take her to the Gangnam Building restaurant to grab dinner, the place where they met each other for the first time.
This could probably be the best opportunity he could get.
Someplace else, as all of that happening...
Inside the boxing ring.
Both Nathan and Rainer had gotten knocked into the ground a couple of times already. Be that as it may, the lone man who had brought them to the floor was still left standing tall, appearing as if he had an endless supply of strength in spite of soaking with so much sweat.
