Thank god you’re okay! The doc said you just have some scrapes and a minor concussion, you’ll be
right as rain with some rest!”
Leah still refused to dry her tears, clutching Clara’s arm and crying like a child.
Left with no other choice, Clara could only gently stroke her back, soothing her, “It’s all over now! I
know you’re still a bit spooked, but it’s all behind us! Where do you live? Let me give you a lift.”
*…Alright! I’m even more scared in a place like this hospital! Doctors and nurses bustling about, and
those cries from the emergency room, I’m too scared to even move!”
“Don’t worry! Come on, I’ll take you out of here! But you’ll have to hang tight for a bit, I need to check
with the doctor if there’s anything he needs to tell

Leah nodded and finally let go of Clara’s hand.
After a little while, Clara came back with a small bag of medications, “Let’s hit the road! I’ll take you
home.”
“Okay!”
All the way, Leah was shaking all over, clutching Clara’s hand tightly.
When they reached her hotel, Clara was somewhat surprised as she pushed the door open.
The table was covered in documents and reports, and the desk lamp was still on, as though she had
been working all night.
“Are you swamped with work?”
“Yes!” Leah sighed, “I just got back to the country, there’s a load of stuff waiting for me! I have to take
care of so many employees at the company. They followed me back home, I can’t screw up their
salaries.”
“But you gotta take care of yourself too!” Clara helped her onto the bed, “If it’s too much, you should
call Elio, have him come back and give you a hand! He knows a thing or two about business, he’s not
just a doctor, but also a business savvy guy”
Leah shrugged, “You don’t know Elio, he may be capable and a great doctor, but he’s not exactly the
Mr. Nice Guy! If he’s into someone, he’d do arrything for them, but if it’s someone he doesn’t give a
damn about… he wouldn’t give them the time of day!”
Clara was somewhat surprised at Leah’s assessment of Elio.
Because Elio was always quite nice towards her.
Maybe it’s because she is one of the people… Elio cares about! Just…

“Well…” Leah’s eyes flicked, “Tell me the truth, what do you think of my cousin Elio? Are you into him?”
Clara lowered her head, “I’ve always seen him as a friend, I was so focused on taking care of the kid
before, I didn’t give much thought to my own. feelings, let alone notice Elio’s changing feelings for me!
Then… when he confessed his feelings to me, things with Emmett were already very complicated!”
“So, if Emmett hadn’t intervened, and Elio had expressed his feelings, would you have accepted?”
“…Maybe” Clara lowered her head, “Elio has been a great help to me, you could even say without him,
I wouldn’t have the relationship I have with Alex now! All he’s done for me, I can’t repay in any way! If
his wish is to be with me, I have no right to refuse.”
No matter what others say, whether they say she’s ungrateful or without principles! She just hopes to
repay Elio in some way.
