With the two women beside him, Dominic felt uncomfortable texting anyone.

He lay in bed and scrolled through reels for a while before sleepiness returned.

“I’m going to sleep a bit more,” he said.

“Go ahead, honey,” Isabella replied.

Dominic asked, “What about you two? Aren’t you going home?”

“You’re lying here. Why would I go home?” Isabella said, pointing to a small bed nearby. “I’ll sleep there later.”

Dominic glanced at the small bed, then looked to the other side. Sure enough, there was another one. His emotions grew complicated.

“Actually… you two can go back and sleep. I’ll be fine here…”

“Just go to sleep. Why are you talking so much?” Katherine stood and helped tuck him in, her tone mildly annoyed. Dominic said nothing more. He closed his eyes and quickly fell asleep.

During that time, his body continued to recover rapidly.

When Dominic woke again, it was completely dark outside.

The ward was quiet. Isabella lay on her side on the small bed. Whatever she was dreaming about, a happy smile rested on her face.

A craving for a cigarette hit Dominic. He carefully tried to get up, not wanting to wake them.

Before he could fully rise, a hand reached over and gently supported him.

He looked up and saw a bright, delicate face, with eyes as captivating as moonlight.

A faint fragrance lingered around Katherine. She must have gone back to shower. She moved with remarkable gentleness as she supported him and smiled softly. “Want to go out for a walk?”

Dominic nodded and whispered, “I want a cigarette.”

“You and your addiction,” Katherine muttered as she helped him put on his shoes, her slender shoulder supporting him. “When are you going to quit?”

Warmth stirred in Dominic’s chest, and he smiled. “It’s not that easy.”

Holding his urine bag, he slowly walked out with Katherine.

As they passed Isabella, Dominic glanced down. She had shifted positions and slept soundly, even letting out a faint snore.

Her blanket had slipped halfway off.

Dominic bent and gently pulled it back over her.

Katherine saw everything. She pressed her lips together slightly but said nothing.

They walked quietly out of the ward, where two bodyguards stood watch. When they saw them, the guards immediately greeted, “Miss, Sir.”

“Shh.” Dominic quickly gestured for silence. He turned back to look. Isabella was still sleeping like a log, completely undisturbed.

The bodyguards nodded at once.

At that moment, Dominic reached into his pocket, only to realize he was still in a hospital gown. He had not brought any cigarettes.

“Here.” A smile appeared on Katherine’s face. She had already taken out his cigarettes and lighter and handed them to him.

Dominic accepted them and even offered a cigarette to each of the bodyguards, who were visibly flattered.

“We’ll just take a short walk. Stay here and keep watch. Thanks for your hard work.”

With that, Dominic and Katherine walked down the hospital corridor.

It was past 3:00 a.m., and the hospital was almost completely silent.

They stopped by a window. Dominic lit a cigarette and took a deep drag.

He had not smoked for days. The inhale felt almost overwhelming, so intense it made him slightly dizzy.

Katherine huffed. “Is it really that good?”

Dominic smiled faintly. “You know, this thing has a nickname. ‘Little joy.”

Katherine asked, “Then what’s ‘big joy‘?”

Dominic blinked, feigning confusion. “Big joy? Isn’t it right here?”

“Where?” Katherine looked puzzled.

Dominic said nothing. He simply looked at her.

In the quiet of the night, the emotions in his eyes were no longer concealed.

Katherine realized it a moment later, fei viiteno zauvi

more enchanting.

That delicate, bashful expression made Dominic’s heart race.

He reached out and gently cupped her flawless face. The smooth, soft touch felt almost addictive.

“Katherine…” As he spoke, Katherine suddenly grabbed his hand.

“Dominic, you’re not even healed yet. Don’t think about anything inappropriate!” she said after a brief hesitation, her tone soft but reproachful.

Dominic hurried to explain, “Hey, I’m perfectly fine!”

He patted his chest, trying to appear strong, but he had clearly overestimated himself. The movement pulled at his wound. A sharp pain shot through his chest and abdomen, and his expression changed at once.

“Dominic!” Katherine panicked and quickly unbuttoned his shirt.

When she saw that the wound had not reopened or started bleeding, she finally relaxed. “See? You were shot, not scratched! Can you behave yourself for once?”

Dominic could only sigh and push down his thoughts. He turned away and smoked in silence.
