Hearing what Louis had said, Taylor folded her arms defensively across her chest as if shielding herself and looked at him with vigilance. "What do you want me to do?"
Louis was both amused and annoyed by her reaction. He asked, "If I really wanted to do something to you, do you think you could resist me?"
Ignoring his words, Taylor remained alert. She looked at him fearlessly with big eyes, and her mouth pouted slightly.
'Damn it! Why is she so cute? I want to kiss her!' Louis thought.
Louis swallowed his desire and licked his lips with the tip of his tongue, trying to suppress his urge to kiss her. "Don't worry. I just want you to check in on a patient," he explained.
"Really?" Taylor still looked at him guardedly, but she lowered her arms.
"Of course. Why would I lie to you?" Louis asked with a helpless sigh.
He didn't know what he had done to make her react so defensively to him.
Her attitude made him feel like she saw him as a beast.
God knew, though he was already in his late twenties, he was still a virgin!
"Tell me something about the patient! I need to have a basic understanding of the situation," Taylor insisted adamantly.
She always acted professionally and with a sense of duty in her professional life.
"You have treated him before." Louis didn't tell her anything more about the patient as Taylor had requested. The patient was Scott, and Taylor might know more about him than Louis did.
Sensing his evasiveness, Taylor seemed to realize who he was referring to. "Is it Scott?"
"Yes," Louis curtly answered in a low tone. Obviously, his mood soured at the mention of Scott.
"But hasn't his condition been stable recently? Why would he relapse now? Did he see something or someone that triggered his condition?" Taylor was really worried about Scott, and there was an obviously nervous tone in her voice.
"Yes, when I checked the CCTV, I saw that he had seen Bill on that day. He had suffered a relapse at that very moment. In recent days, I've had a lot to deal with on my plate, so I couldn't attend to his illness for a while. But recently, his condition has dramatically worsened." When Louis mentioned Bill's name, he couldn't keep his calm any longer, and anger smoldered in his dark eyes.
"So, you want me to get to t
reed, sighing.
The three of them returned to the restaurant where the car was parked, and then Louis drove them home.
When they got into the car, Amy was still sleeping soundly. They had nothing more to say, so there was only silence in the car. But strangely, there was no longer an awkward feeling and only sweetness existed between them.
Suddenly, a ringtone shattered the comfortable silence.
It was the ringtone that Louis had assigned to Scott's caregiver.
As soon as Louis answered it, the nurse's voice sounded at the other end of the line. "Mr. Ke, please come here quickly! Mr. Gu has relapsed again! He is throwing things around now!"
"Okay, I'll be right there," Louis answered immediately.
After hanging up the phone, he turned to look at Taylor apologetically.
"It's not a problem. You can find a guest room for Amy to sleep in." Taylor was very considerate of his dilemma.
From the urgent phone call just now, she had vaguely heard the name "Mr. Gu." The anxious look on Louis's face had also confirmed to her that something had happened to Scott.
Hearing her understanding reply, Louis didn't hesitate anymore. He started the car again, stepped on the gas, and drove straight to the apartment where Scott was being cared for.
The moon hung high in the sky, and there was not a star in sight. Only the faint moonlight lit up the land with a soft glow.
Occasionally, one or two breezy gusts blew. On such a night, the negative emotions of loneliness, despair, and pain were amplified.
