In contrast, Nathan seemed to be bursting with energy.
He was fully refreshed after his sleep.
It was clear that there was a stark disparity in physical strength between men and women.
Lucinda finally regained her composure.
Nathanâs arms encircling her waist from behind and his chin rested gently on her shoulder.
âAre you heading out?â
âYes.

âNo, I have to rush to the hospital now.

He didnât try to hold her back, but he did ask, âDo you need any help from me?â
âNo, itâs not a big deal.

She turned to leave the room, but he pulled her back into his arms, tilted her chin up, and looked at her with a serious expression.

Every entrance and exit of the hospital teemed with reporters, all vying for a glimpse of Noelle, who was currently admitted as an in- patient.
Lucinda maneuvered her car into the garage, which had stricter access permissions.
The frustrated reporters could only wait at the exit with their cameras and microphones at the ready.
Inside the ward, Noelle appeared better than the day before, although her face still bore signs of exhaustion and paleness.
âTake a look at this,â
Lucinda said as she showed a report to Noelle.
It contained an apology written by Delavan the previous night.
Noelle accepted the report and read it.
Her eyes welled up with tears as sobs caught in her throat.
Noelle was Lucindaâs sole friend during their stay at the orphanage.
Witnessing her friendâs despair tugged at Lucindaâs own heartstrings.
