Dr.Moore simply stared at Amora without a word.
It was only after she managed to calm her emotions did he open his mouth.
"I won't let you die."
Amora was rendered speechless.
You won't let me die? What a peculiar reply.
Of course, a patient like me will be happy to hear this kind of answer.
But that's hardly what a professional doctor should say.
In her own experience, on the first day as a doctor, there was one crucial thing that the hospital would tell them.
That was not to promise anything to the patients, especially when it came to matters of survival.
Does the culture differ according to the region? Do all the doctors here talk like this? Amora was stunned momentarily that she did not even realize when Dr.Moore left the ward.
However, it was precisely because of the doctor's assuring words that she was able to get some good sleep that night.
But when it got to around midnight, she felt a sudden pain in her blood vessels.
"Mmmm..."
She gripped her bedsheet tightly while moaning in agony.
What's wrong with her? Hearing her moan, a tall figure who had been lying on the couch jumped up and hurried to her side.
"What's wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable?"
"It hurts..."
Amora's consciousness was blurry, to begin with.
Coupled that with the dizziness and excruciating pain she was experiencing, she couldn't care less when there was a sudden voice sounded beside her nor could she recognize it.
The person heard her reply and immediately pressed the emergency button at the head of the bed.
Right after that, he pulled her into his embrace.
"Don't worry.I've called the doctor.He'll be here soon.Don't be afraid."
His warm arms were wrapped around her body and his voice was utterly gentle.
Amora was in a daze.
The great torment in her body suddenly reminded her of a scene.
It was a scene that she had long forgotten.
"Don't come any nearer! Don't bite me..."
A panicked little girl was running around an old house while a huge black dog was chasing her persistently.
The little girl was terrified.
Right at that moment, a boy dressed in a white shirt that was around ten showed up to her rescue.
He picked up a shovel from the ground and charged at the dog without any hesitation.
Woof...
With a whimper, the dog collapsed on the ground.
As for the little girl, she fell to the ground as well and froze on the spot.
After a while, the boy walked over and reached out his hand toward her.
