Chapter 271
"Have you finished your work?" Dexter asked casually. He removed his sunglasses and gazed at her quietly.
At that moment, Angela had yet to even wipe the dust from her face. Exhausted from a sleepless night of work
and battling her anxiety, she appeared far more haggard than Dexter.
"I have something | need to take care of first. Please allowto go. You should return to the hospital first. I'll
visit you as soon as I'm done, alright?" Angela's tone softened as she recalled his kindness.
Her tone was like a man persuading his mistress to return to the home. Dexter had becthe eager mistress,
waiting for her arrival.
Dexter inhaled deeply and got out of his car. He approached her and commanded, "Get down first."
Angela rejected anxiously. "No. | have something urgent to take care of."
"Your face is so dirty. Do you want to embarrass yourself by going out like that?" Dexter sneered.
In an instant, a flicker of care appeared in the depths of his eyes.
Last night, after she'd left the hospital, he'd woken up and followed her to the disaster site. Witnessing her
relentless efforts to tackle the crisis, he'd felt a strong urge to intervene and help her resolve all the issues.
Yet, he'd soon realized she was strong enough to handle everything on her own. So, he'd quietly stepped back
and waited, silently supporting her.
"Alright, I'm going to freshen up." Angela stepped out of the car and headed toward the restroom.
However, Dexter grabbed her arm. Then, he pulled out a box of wet wipes out of nowhere and carefully wiped
her face.

Angela had looked up at him.
He looked very serious, as if he were handling a priceless artifact with care, afraid of making mistakes. When
their eyes met, he glanced down, and his gaze was unfathomable. For reasons she couldn't quite grasp, Angela's
heart raced, compelling her to instinctively look away from him.
"Alright, I'm leaving now. Please don't cause any more trouble," she remarked, gently nudging him aside as if she
planned to move his car on her own. To her surprise, he suddenly clutched his chest, a pained expression
crossing his face.

"Are... are you alright?" Angela asked, her shock evident. She hadn't even
pushed him that hard just now.
Dexter's face went pale as he sadly laughed. "What could be more important than human life?"
His words made her feel even guiltier.
"Okay, I'll take you back to the hospital first. You're not in good condition to leave alone." She conceded, her
compromise evident.
Dexter remained silent, yet the faintest hint of a smile tugged at the corners of his lips. When they reached the
hospital, Angela lingered for a while longer.
Eventually, her patience wore thin, and she requested to leave. However, Dexter appeared so delicate, as if he
couldn't survive without her.

"Don't worry. What you want will undoubtedly cto fruition," Dexter added, seemingly anxious that she might
lose her temper.
"I need to leave immediately, Dexter! There's nothing you can say to change my mind." Angela snapped, her
