NovelEnglishChapter 207:
The associate trembled from head to toe and said, “Yes, Sir!”
The woman took a quick look around, noticed spunks with colorful hair, and then looked away, taking her
belongings into the hospital.
“I believe you're capable of dealing with this issue. I'm leaving now,” Jack said. He hopped on his motorcycle and
sped off down the road.
Puffing up his chest, the associate ordered, “You three, stay here on the lookout. Letknow as soon as that
woman exits, and I'll get in touch with the rest.”
Unaware of the eyes watching her from outside, Norah opened the hospital door and walked in with her
belongings.
“Alice, | brought you sfruit...”
“Alice?” Norah's items fell to the ground as she was taken aback by the mess around Alice’s hospital bed and
hurried forward.
Alice was lying on the bed, her eyes vacant as she stared at the ceiling. Bruises and cuts were scattered across
her face and neck, with fresh injuries on top of those not yet healed. Her hospital gown was in shreds, exposing

Nothing else in the ward seemed to have been touched.
Norah had just stepped out for a meal and to buy sfruit, never expecting that chaos would erupt in such a
brief span.

Norah gently helped Alice adjust in the bed, saying, “Don’t speak just yet.”
“Ill take care of your injuries.” The IV needle had been forcibly removed, but fortunately, the puncture was
covered with gauze, which helped stop the bleeding.
But the gunshot wound was in a dire state, having reopened and was bleeding badly.
Norah grabbed sbandages from the nurse’s station and quickly attended to Alice's injuries.
All the while, Alice’s expression was serious. She remained silent, her gaze fixed on nothing in particular.
“Alice...” Norah's voice was filled with concern. She had been conversing normally with Alice before she left for a
meal, but suddenly everything was different.
Alice's eyes moved around a bit, and she turned her head to see Norah, her look sharpening as she said, “Norah,
you're back?”
“Yes, I've cback.” Norah grasped Alice’s hand gently and asked, “Alice, can you share withwhat
happened?”
While Norah was at the station getting supplies, she made sure to tell the doctors to give them privacy. Being a
doctor herself, Norah was confident she could manage whatever condition Alice was facing.
Alice began to recount the whole story.
Alice had settled back down on the bed to rest when Norah left for lunch.
As she hovered between consciousness and sleep, several intruders stormed in.
They removed her blanket, ripped out the IV needle, pricked her with slender needles, and aggressively struck
her face while shouting insults.
Initially, they had different plans, but after noticing her injuries, they settled for attacking her before leaving.
A sense of fear enveloped Norah as she lifted Alice’s gown, revealing numerous puncture marks on her
abdomen, back, and chest.
“At that moment, | wished | could just die,” Alice said quietly. She didn’t fear death; her real fear was that she
would continue to live.

Norah embraced Alice softly and said, “It’s alright, Alice. I'm here with you.”
Norah soothed Alice by patting her shoulder and asked, “Do you recall our childhood conversation?”
Alice nodded, and Norah continued, “You once said you'd like to becthe fiercest assassin, yet you'd allow
yourself to feel for me.”
Resting her head on Alice’s shoulder, her eyes brimming with emotion, Norah said, “Please do not entertain such
dark thoughts. If you're open to it, I'd love to be your friend for life.”
