I lifted my head in confusion to look at Colin. Was he inviting me to come with him? His starry eyes gazed at me in sincerity, and I smirked.
Now this was the person whom I'd love forever. Life was a long journey. There would be times when he felt lost or disoriented, but he would never be astray. He would give me a sense of security whenever I wanted it.
The doctor we were consulting was Dr. Zayne, who used to treat Felix. He was tall and slightly chubby as his lids fluttered in earnestness. The moment we met him, the smile never left his face. He was very easygoing and friendly.
After examining the wound, Dr. Zayne scrutinized the X-ray scans for a very long while and read through the medical report from Lagado. The whole process took nearly 40 minutes. In the end, he said that the surgery was a huge success and that the nerves in her limbs were fine.
However, she needed to let her nerves heal properly and attend physiotherapy.
When Dr. Zayne was going through the materials, his brows knitted into a deep frown. I was worried sick because I thought Jasmine's condition was grim. If her injury was permanent, Colin could never repay what he owed her. I'd hate to see that.
More importantly, I didn't think that Jasmine was physically unwell. It was her soul that needed surgery. Felix was the prime example, and I couldn't help but assume the worst from her. Felix never went easy on Colin even though he was his brother.
Jasmine and I went to the same university. We weren't bound by anything else. I could imagine all the things she would do to take Colin away from me.
Fortunately, Dr. Zayne gave us good news. What a relief. Jasmine, however, wasn't pleased by how things turned out. Ever since she entered the consultation room, she sulked and refused to speak. Her bodyguards stood next to her like custodians.
