Unchained Desire

Donovan frowned, glanced at Ruby, then looked away and asked coldly, "Is she going to die?"

"Not to that extent." The family doctor, unaware of the situation, thought the patient lying there was Donovan's friend. Hearing Donovan's question, he felt as if there was some animosity between them. Who would ask if someone with a cold and fever was going to die if there wasn't any bad blood?

Donovan's tone grew even colder, "As long as she won't die, just prescribe some medicine. Trevor, when she wakes up, tell her to get out and come back when she's better."

With that, he got up from the sofa and went upstairs.

The family doctor was bewildered, watching Donovan's back disappear on the second floor. While prescribing the medicine, he asked Trevor, "What did this lady do to offend Mr. Ziegler?" Trevor shook his head, "It's not my place to inquire about Mr. Ziegler's affairs. However, Mr. Ziegler is always polite to everyone, except for Ms. Adams. There might be some past grievances." "An ex-girlfriend?" the family doctor boldly speculated.

Trevor didn't dare to comment on Donovan's matters and remained silent. The family doctor finished prescribing the medicine, dividing it into six small packets.

"When she wakes up, have her take it three times a day. She should recover quickly." The family doctor packed up his medical kit and left, leaving only Trevor and the sleeping Ruby in the living room.
