She'd remember this for as long as she lived.
"Could you show me what medicines you're currently taking?"
Will arched an eyebrow at her. He took out his phone and shot his assistant a text.
After a few minutes, he forwarded the names of the medicines to Elisa.
Elisa burst into laughter when she read his text. "Is this a joke?"
Where did Will's mother find this doctor?!
Will stared at her. "My mother hired him from abroad. She paid a lot to convince him to be my doctor. It looks like
she's found me a quack."
Elisa turned grim. "You're not coughing because of a cold."

This wasn't good.
His legs would have recovered completely fine if he had not taken these medications. He might be confined to a
wheelchair for the rest of his life!
Elisa did not voice her concerns.
She was afraid it would upset Will.
"You need to stop taking these medications immediately. I'll write up a treatment plan for you. You'll need to follow
it strictly. Will, I don't trust anyone else to take care of you."
Will was hurt because of her. Besides, they had known each other for such a long time. She would do the same
even if she weren't at fault. She had come to think of him as a friend.
Will's eyes glimmered. He gazed at the beautiful woman in front of him. "Look at you. Flirting with me, Elisa." He

Elisa blinked. She parted her lips to explain herself but didn't know what to say.
Everything she needed to say had already been said.
Will smiled bitterly, "I know what you're thinking. I was joking."
Elisa clamped her lips shut. She looked conflicted.
She didn't know what to say.
Silence surrounded them.
The sound of footsteps approaching snapped them out of their thoughts. It was the maid with their tea.
Elisa watched the maid place the teapot on the coffee table in silence.
Will smiled. "The tea has a wonderful fragrance. Care to try it?"
Elisa silently poured herself a cup.
Will didn't move. He wasn't supposed to drink tea in his condition.

The tea was fragrant. It was easy on the palate with no hint of bitterness.
"It's good tea." Elisa complimented him.
Will chuckled. "I'll send you home with some if you like it."
"Thank you."
Elis didn't refuse him. Their relationship was such that denying him too often would make things incredibly
awkward.
Just like Will had said earlier, she was trying to draw the line between them too deliberately.
She felt the same.
But after thinking about it, she decided they were both adults, and they knew where they stood with the other.
There's no need to overexplain.
She believed Will would give up after everything she had said to him.
Will was about to speak when the front door burst open.
A chill immediately descended into the living room.
