Douglas' face fell, and he stood upright, watching her puke.
It took Whitney a long time to calm down.
Douglas asked, "Do you hate me so much that touching me disgusts you?"
Whitney had been malnourished for too long, and on top of that, seeing Douglas shocked her, so she felt her head getting dizzy. She shook her head and explained, "N-No. I didn't…" She then fell limp.
Shocked, Douglas quickly held her and shouted, "Whitney!"
Whitney was pale and unconscious. He looked at her, and for the first time, he was panicking. Quickly, he picked her up and ran into the hospital.
After the doctor took her into the emergency room, Douglas sat outside and clasped his hands together, hanging his head low. He looked worried and depressed. Ever since he knew Emily gave Whitney money and told her to leave, Douglas told himself to stop obsessing over Whitney so both he and Whitney could lead their own lives.
But as time went by, his longing deepened. He couldn't help but want to see Whitney. Even when Emily begged him to stay, he flew back just to see Whitney. I must be mad.
Just when he was still immersed in his own thoughts, the doctor came out. When he saw Douglas, he asked, "Are you the patient's husband?"
Douglas froze for a moment and nodded. "Yes, I am."

The readers' comments on the novel: Right Person, Wrong Time
What a waste of reading! This could have been an excellent novel if it hadn't skipped chapters after 531 and then everything is garbled. Get your act together if you still want a reading audience!!!...
