"It's not that I don't like him..." Monica didn't know how to explain. When it came to her own feelings, she suddenly couldn't articulate them, "Let's take it slow. So many things have happened recently, and I think the way we are now is quite nice."
"What do you mean by 'quite nice'? You like him so much, and he hasn't confessed to you yet? What does he mean by that? Is he keeping you as a backup?" Belinda didn't want her beloved daughter to be wronged.
"Mom!" Monica defended Tristan strongly. "I won't allow you to talk about him like that!" She stood up, her face changing, "You'd better think about your own relationship with Algerone!"
With that, she turned and went upstairs, her mood undoubtedly exhilarated.
Monica was truly happy. She would have a valid reason to see Tristan again tomorrow! He would even drive over to pick her up, how nice!
The feeling of loving someone was like this, seeing them once was satisfying enough, and a single glance felt like possessing the whole world.
At 11 p. m., the doors of a certain operating room at the Charity Medical Center opened.
Rowan Watson walked out looking tired. He had already changed his clothes and washed his hands clean. Despite the unexpected situation during the surgery, everything had been handled appropriately.
It was a successful operation, complex, but the patient was now out of danger.
Rowan Watson finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was late, and he was ready to knock off work.
Back in his office, he opened the drawer, took out his mobile phone, put it in his pocket, and left.
Instead of returning to Emerald Bay, he drove home. Along the way, random songs were playing in the car.
Rowan Watson couldn't help but think of Claire, who had been missing for many days... The feeling of sadness was always there, unshakeable. He probably wouldn't love again in this lifetime.
The salvage team that stayed in the old town still had no news, neither good nor bad.
Back home, Rowan Watson came out of the shower, and it was already midnight.
