Herplexion turned pale, her expression contorted with fear.


    Observing her anxiety, Colby interjected, “You’ve finished my first condition.


    Now, go take care of that wound.


    I don’t want to see Destinee upset over this.


    ”


    Kyson, noting Destinee’s anxiety, reassured her, “Enjoy the durian.


    I’ll be back soon after treating the wound.


    ”


    As soon as Kyson left, Destinee began to panic.


    However, lost in thought, she began to eat the durian from the te.


    Colby watched her, puzzled.


    “You don’t seem too worried.


    I mean, he was bleeding quite a lot, and yet you’re still eating?”


    Tears welled up in Destinee’s eyes as she replied, “Kyson bled just to get us this durian.


    If I don’t eat it, all his effort will be for nothing.


    I have to make sure it wasn’t in vain.


    ”


    Colby was left speechless by her response.


    Colby then realized that once Kyson met his other two requests, he would have to forgive him.


    This thought irked him slightly.


    His frustration was inadvertently directed at Destinee, who loyally followed Kyson everywhere.


    “I don’t need you here.


    Go to Kyson.


    He’s bleeding badly, isn’t he? Shouldn’t you be there for him?”


    Destinee remained silent, her emotions conflicted as she continued to eat the durian, tears mixing with the sweet taste.


    “I want to stay with Kyson, but I also want to be with you,” she sobbed.


    “Kyson is in pain, but I know you’re unwell.


    You’re just five years ago, but you have to suffer so much pain.


    I feel sorry for you, Colby.


    Boohoo, it’s so delicious… No, I mean… I’m torn!”


    With a nk expression, Colby pointed out her struggle.


    “You just can’t stop eating the durian, can you?”


    “That’s not true!” Destinee protested, shaking her head and stuffing more durian into her mouth, her actions belying her words.


    Colby, watching herzily, gave an ultimatum.


    “Take two pieces of the durian and go to him.


    If you stay here and keep annoying me, I’ll take all the durian away.


    You’ll have none.


    ”


    Her sobs continued as she wrestled with her decision.


    Finally, she dered, “Fine.


    I’ll leave you alone.


    ”


    She grabbed the tworgest pieces of durian and hurried out of the room, hoping to catch up with Kyson on the staircase.


    Once she had left, Colby looked after her, listening as her footsteps faded.


    He then reached over to the bedside, carefully avoiding the needle, grabbed some durian, and took arge bite.


    His eyes sparkled with delight at the taste.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    “Yummy!” he eximed, momentarily distracted from his earlier frustrations.


    In the corridor, Kyson swiftly removed his disposable gloves and inspected the wound on his hand.


    As he prepared to descend the stairs, he noticed Lucinda emerging from the adjacent restroom.


    Having just concluded a video conference, Lucinda diligently cleansed her hands and sterilized them to prevent any bacteria from contaminating Colby upon her return to the ward.
