Delphine walked out of the hospital room in a daze, her lips still carrying the faint sensation of softness. Her heartbeat raced, not only because Magnus had returned but also due to a long-lost thrill.
She leaned against the icy wall outside the room, her gaze misty and her mind utterly blank.
Arthur White arrived at the hospital and saw her standing lost outside the room. Walking forward, he asked, "Miss Delphine, why aren't you going in?"
Delphine snapped back to reality and forced herself to stay composed, replying, "I came out to make a call."
Arthur watched her retreating figure, which seemed a bit flustered, adjusted his glasses on his nose bridge, and stepped into the room.
The man was lowering his gaze, sipping water. His handsome features held a trace of gentleness, but the moment he saw Arthur enter, his familiar cold demeanor returned in an instant.
