Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 861

Sasha had only called out for Baylor when the nurse spotted her and immediately put the syringe into her hand, relieved to be rid of a dreadful task.

This time, Sasha didn’t decline. She moved right to the side of the hospital bed.

Compared to the day before, the young man looked paler and weaker.

As he lay with his eyes screwed shut, one would think he was dead if it weren’t for the rising and falling motion from his chest.

He has maintained a positive and calm outlook throughout the prolonged battle against his illness. Yet he chose to end his life now.

An overwhelming guilt invaded Sasha, suffocating her.

 

“Mr. White-”

“You don’t have to feel guilty, Dr. West. It has nothing to do with you. I’m just exhausted with my life. It’d be good to be free of everything earlier,” Baylor cut her off and offered his words of comfort.

 

At that, Sasha was taken aback.

Only when she looked up did she realize that the young man’s closed eyes had already opened.

At that moment, he was gazing at her silently, as though nothing had happened.

Sasha said nothing for a long time.

The more nonchalant he was, the harder she gasped.

Guilt crushed her like a mountain.

“Please don’t do anything foolish again, Mr. White. If you really don’t want your family to take care of you, I can petition to be your personal physician.”

In the end, she gave in.

The moment the young man heard that, his eyes lit up at lightning speed.

Finally, she has agreed!

In the director’s office, Grayson was exceedingly shocked upon hearing Sasha’s decision.

“You want to be his personal physician? What about Mr. Hayes, then? He’ll be back from the base in two months. You can’t split yourself between the Whites and Oceanic Estate.”

“I won’t stay for long. I only agreed to calm Baylor down. As you know, patients with a terminal illness like him develop depressing thought easily. It’ll just be until he’s emotionally stable.”

After hearing that, Grayson finally understood her intentions.

“If that’s the case, I won’t have to worry about it anymore. Even if he isn’t emotionally stable by the time you leave, I can still arrange for someone else to take over your job.”

“Okay. Thank you, Dr. Wallen.”
