Nathalie typed her response quickly. “I already have an incredible doctor treating me. But thank you for offering.”

Freddy fell silent for a moment before sighing softly. “Having to communicate with you like this… it’s really hard to get used to. It honestly just makes my heart break for you even more: Are you comfortable telling me how this happened? Maybe there’s some way I can help.

Nathalie’s lips curved into a gentle smile as she typed, “It was just an accident. I’ll be fully recovered soon.”

“Good,” Freddy murmured. “I want you to heal as fast as possible. I really miss hearing your

voice.

Nathalie offered another soft smile but didn’t type a reply. Just then, her phone buzzed. She glanced down to see a message from Sophia.

Sophia: *Nathalie, did Freddy come to see you?*

Sophia: *I ran into him at a guest lecture at my university a little while ago. We got to talking, and I accidentally brought up what happened to you. I am so, so sorry. I realized afterward that it probably wasn’t my place to tell him anything.*

Sophia: *I know I messed up. Please forgive me.*

Even through the text, Nathalie could feel the younger girl’s sheer panic. A fond, exasperated sigh slipped past her lips as she typed back.

Nathalie: *It’s perfectly fine. It wasn’t exactly a state secret anyway. Don’t beat yourself up over it.*

Sophia: *Really? As long as you aren’t mad at me!*

Sophia: *When are you free? I’d love to take you out to dinner.*

Nathalie: *Focus on your studies for now. I’ll reach out when my schedule clears up.*

Sophia: *Okay!*

They arrived at the restaurant, and Freddy gently guided her toward the private dining rooms on the second floor. As they reached the top of the stairs, a middle-aged woman walked right toward them.

“Freddy!” The woman’s face lit up as she extended her hand. “What a coincidence. I never expected to run into you here.”

Freddy smiled warmly, returning the handshake. “Dr. Adler. The surprise is entirely mine.

When did you get back to Cabinda?”

“Just yesterday,” Dr. Adler replied brightly. “I’m just grabbing a quick bite with some friends today.”

Her gaze naturally shifted to Nathalie, and her smile widened into something much more knowing. “And who might this be, Freddy? Your girlfriend? She is absolutely stunning. I gue your family won’t have to worry about you settling down anymore.”

Freddy let out a he less chuckle. “You’ve got it all wrong, Dr. Adler. She’s a very good frien of mine. And shlready married.”

eyebrows shot up in surprise. “You really don’t miss a thing, do you? You’re right, ealing with a health issue right now. I was actually hoping to ask you to take a look at Do you have a few spare minutes?”
