Nathan drove to Channing Central Hospital and carried Kylie to the emergency room. He found a female doctor and said, "Doctor, her drink was spiked. Please save her."
The female doctor quickly called a few other female nurses and they carried Kylie onto a bed and perform the necessary procedure.
Not long after Nathan settled the bills, the doctor came over to inform him that Kylie was fine and could be discharged half an hour later when she woke up.
He was worried that Kylie would feel embarrassed because of what happened earlier.
As such, he decided to withdraw himself from the matter and told the doctor not to reveal who he was.
After which, he left.
As he stepped out of the hospital, he noticed that one of the buttons on his shirt was gone. Perhaps it was yanked out by someone else earlier.
He shook his head with a bitter smile on his face. What is going on tonight?
Meanwhile, Kylie woke up to find herself in a hospital ward.
She felt rather weak but was starting to gain her sense and became more clearheaded.
The first thing she did was to check on herself. She looked down to check her clothes and saw that they were neat and tidy. Most importantly, there was nothing wrong with her body apart from feeling weak.
Kylie heaved a sigh of relief after confirming that she was not sexually violated.
Upon this, she recalled the heroic man who risked his life and saved her amidst facing attacks from a bunch of ferocious and aggressive gangsters.
She looked around the ward but there was no sign of that man.
However, there was a shirt button in her palms. She recalled that she accidentally yanked it off because she held onto him really tight.
At this moment, the doctor came in with her fellow nurses and checked on her with a smile, "Ah, you are awake. Are you feeling alright?"
"I'm alright. May I know who sent me to the hospital? Did he leave any contact?" Kylie asked hurriedly.
The doctor remembered Nathan's instructions and replied with a smile, "It was just a kind-hearted man, but he did not leave his name nor any contact number."
Kylie looked so disappointed after hearing that.
She looked down at the button in her palms. Suddenly, she lifted her gaze and asked the doctor curiously, "Doctor, is that man uh...handsome?"
The doctor seemed to understand her intentions and told her, "Well, he looked around the same age as you. As for his appearance, I would say he is quite good looking and charming."
