You've always been mysterious." Alexander quickly signed the last document and handed it to Ruby. Ruby maintained her smile. "I'm just from an ordinary family, nothing mysterious about it." Alexander smiled faintly. "Alright, get back to your tasks." Ruby nodded slightly, gave him a puzzled look, and then ran out with the documents.
At the corner of the stairs, she looked back at Alexander, only to see him already opening the door to the ward.

Quinn was slumped on the bed, with a tablet and phone in front of her, looking very bored.
Hearing the sound, she looked up at the door. When she saw Alexander, her face lit up, and she immediately sat up straight.
Alexander sat down beside her. "How are you today?" He habitually looked at her fingers, but both her hands were hidden under the blanket, and her clear voice cto his ears.
"What do you mean?" Alexander paused, shifting his gaze to her face. "How are you feeling?" Quinn responded, extending her hands and looking at him pitifully. "I don't want any more needles. When can I leave?" Her exposed hands were covered in needle marks, indicating she had been pricked quite a bit these past few days.
Alexander held her hand, examining it carefully, his fingers gently rubbing the back of her hand. He spoke nonchalantly, "You need to ask the doctor." Thinking of the doctor's words in the morning, Quinn pouted in frustration, "The doctor said I need to wait a few more days." "Then wait a few more days." Quinn said with a frown, "But can they stop pricking me?" "If you don't get the IV, you won't get better." Lost in the world of this story? Make sure you're on Ne5sto catch every twist and turn.

With only the two of them left in the ward, Quinn stared at him, and he looked back at her, their eyes meeting. Quinn blinked and suddenly asked, "What do you do during the day?" "I'm busy with work at the company." Lost in the world of this story? Make sure you're on Ñe5sto catch every twist and turn. The next chapter awaits, exclusively on our site. Dive in now! "Why is everyone so busy? No one's here to keepcompany." She pouted, looking a bit unhappy.
"Aren't I keeping you company now?" "You're boring, not fun at all." Alexander raised an eyebrow slightly. "Not fun with me? Then who is fun? Lucas?" Quinn didn't catch the undertone in his words and pouted, "He doesn't even cto see me." His gaze deepened, and he said meaningfully, "Maybe he can't come?" "Why?"
Alexander looked at her thoughtfully for a moment. Quinn was still waiting for his answer when he suddenly got up and went to the window to smoke. Quinn watched his back for a moment, then got out of bed and walked over to him.
Just as she was about to speak, the smoke from his hand made herm throat itch and she started coughing E uncontrollably. Alexander paused slightly, turning his head to glance at her.
