“What? Which crazy man?”
“Sebastian, of course. Weren’t you his personal physician all the while? You still wanted to work for him,” reminded Baylor seriously.
Sasha opened her mouth. Suddenly, she realized something.
Sebastian! So this crazy man is trying to target him!
“What are you talking about? What do you mean by he cares about me? We’re strictly in a doctor-patient relationship. You’re overthinking things,” denied Sasha immediately, hoping to dispel that thought from his mind.
However, Baylor had already done a thorough investigation.
“You don’t need to deny it. I know that you miss him a lot. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have asked Grayson to let you stay with him at Oceanic Estate.”
The more she heard, the more surprised she became.
What terrified her the most was that Baylor would discover her true identity.
However, upon seeing the suspicious look on Baylor’s face when he glanced at her real face, she felt relieved.
“However, I’m curious about something. Since you’re so beautiful, why must you wear that disguise? Are you worried that the crazy man won’t like you because you’re too pretty?”
“I didn’t wear this disguise for him. It has nothing to do with him. I wore it because my face was disfigured from an accident. Before it was healed, I have to wear the disguise.”
Suppressing her panic, Sasha explained it to him with feigned indifference.
“Really?” Baylor was still doubtful.
“Yeah. Don’t you know that I’ve been chased out of Oceanic Estate recently?” asked Sasha immediately.
At that, Baylor fell quiet, looking slightly convinced by her.
In truth, Sasha had been absolutely terrified when her disguise had been ripped off. She was not afraid that her real identity would be exposed but that it would bring trouble to Sebastian.
However, it seemed like she was overthinking—Baylor knew nothing.
While she was feeling relieved, someone walked over.
“Mr. White, the hospital sent a video to us. Would you like to see it?”
“Sure, play it.”
Baylor diverted his attention away from Sasha and nodded.
The man retrieved the video on his phone and passed it to Baylor.
Sitting opposite them, Sasha had no idea what they were talking about. Since Baylor had stopped focusing on her, she lowered her head immediately and searched for an opportunity to escape.
