“Where is that woman? Where’s the nurse named Stephanie Carter?!”
The door was shoved open with a loud bam, and a middle–aged
couple charged in.
“Stephanie Carter! You’re Stephanie Carter, aren’t you?!”

Upon seeing the woman on the bed, the couple rushed forward and forcefully yanked off the
sheets.
“What are you doing?!”
Rosalie shoved the woman aside and stood in front of Stephanie’s bed, her face all tensed up.
“Scram!” The middle–aged man shoved Rosalie roughly to the floor.
“Argh!” Rosalie wrapped her arms protectively around her belly.
“What are you doing?!” Stephanie leapt out of her bed, and held Rosalie up from the floor. “Are you
okay?”
“I’m fine,” Rosalie said, feeling no difort in her belly.
Upon seeing the fierce couple approach them, Rosalie hurriedly pulled Stephanie behind her. “What
do you two want?”
“This nurse caused my son to be taken away by the police. I’ll teach you a good lesson!”
The couple was hot–tempered, andpletely unreasonable.
“Don’t act rashly,” Rosalie said, standing firm. “Your son’s been taken away. Do you want to be
taken away too? Let’s talk things through civilly.”
“What’s there to talk about? This nurse is at fault for havin
poor attitude and insulting my son. My son just pushed her a bit in the heat of the moment. What’s
wrong with that?”
“I did not insult him,” Stephanie said with a trembling voice. “I was very busy, and I did speak in a
curt tone, but I did not insult him.”
“I don’t care! You’re the one whonded my son in this mess, you bitch!”
The couple pounced at her right there and then.
Rosalie hurriedly pulled Stephanie toward the door. However, the middle–aged man acted fast and
grabbed Stephanie’s arm just in time to drag her back into the ward.
“Ahh!” Stephanie shrieked.
The medical staff along the corridor rushed over upon hearing themotion, and saw the chaos in
the ward.
Stephanie was being pressed down on the floor, and Rosalie hurried over to her. She wrapped
herself around Stephanie, yelling, “Stop, you two!”
“Rosalie, leave! This has nothing to do, so hurry up and leave!”
Rosalie was pregnant. It would be terrible if she ended up getting hit by them.
Yet, Rosalie refused to leave, staying on top of Stephanie and keeping her in her tight embrace.
Some of the male doctors rushed forward and pulled the violent
couple aside. The man shook off the doctor’s hold, grabbed a vase from somewhere, and smashed
it in Rosalie’s direction.
Smash!
The vase broke into pieces on the fle
Rosalie hugged Stephanie tight and shut her eyes, but she didn’t feel any pain.
The room was eerily silent.
Rosalie turned around and saw a towering figure standing right before her, blocking her from the
vase aimed in her direction.
Just then, security guards rushed over and nabbed the couple, dragging them out of the ward. The
corridor was filled with their shrieks.
Rosalie finally let Stephanie go. “Are you all right?”
Stephanie was pale as a ghost. She shook her head. “I… I’m fine.”
Rosalie stood up, and rushed to Theodore. She turned his body around, and saw that his forehead
was covered with blood.
“Theo.”
She lifted a trembling hand, and cupped his face in her palms. Even her voice was shaking.
Theodore saw the tears welling up in her eyes and suddenly grabbed her arm, pulling her into his
embrace. “Are you hurt?”
He anxiously but carefully checked her body, for fear he might hurt her further.
“I’m fine,” Rosalie said with a shake of her head. She wiped the tears from her face, and pointed
out, “You’re injured.”
“It’s nothing major,” Theodore said, finally feeling assured enough to pull her back into his tight
embrace once more. He tightened his arms around her, as if worried that he might lose her
anytime.
