Keira’s gaze flickered at thanse words. She said hoarsely, “Thank you for saving me.
The doctor nodded, then looked at her liesitantly before asking, “Were your parents the ones who were here with you the other day?”
She parted her lips slightly but remained silent. The doctor didn’t dare ask anything else when he saw the look on her face. They sighed and left. Keira was alone at the hospital for the next two days. Nobody came to check on her.
