I could see that he had every intention of staying here, so I couldn’t help but ask, “Don’t you have something important to do?”
“Yes.”
“Then why are you still here?”
Caleb looked at me and said seriously, “My most important task is to take care of you.”
As he spoke, he bent over to fluff my cushion nonchalantly. “Just Lie down and get some sleep.”
Debra’s POV:
Unexpectedly, it only took me a few days to recover. Even Brian, my attending doctor, was surprised at how quickly I recuperated; he said it was a miracle. ©
I couldn’t help but think about that strange dream I had when I was still unconscious.
In the dream, my mother told me that there was some kind of “strong power” hidden in my body. What did she mean by that?
Could this hidden power be the reason why my body healed so quickly?

I couldn’t be sure, so I decided not to dwell on it. Maybe the answer would only reveal itself in the future.
Caleb arranged for me to stay in a VIP ward. He practically lived at the hospital now, spending every second of the day taking good care of me.
With Caleb’s considerate care, my otherwise dull stay at the hospital wasn’t that boring.
Time flew by quickly. Before I knew it, it was time for Brian to check on my condition again.
“Your brain seems to be fine, but you’re still too weak for me to discharge you. I want you to stay put for a Little Longer so that I can observe your condition,” Brian said after the examination.
He had been in charge of treating me since I was hospitalized. I couldn’t help but feel sorry for what I had said to him before.
“Brian, I’m sorry about last time. I misunderstood you,” I apologized to him guiltily.
“Don’t worry about it.” Brian waved his hand dismissively, as though he really didn’t mind.
He looked up from his clipboard and smiled at me.
“Actually, you reminded me of my ex-wife, Melany. She also hates injustice, and she always fights for what she believed is right.”
My eyebrows shot up in surprise. Melany was Brian’s ex-wife?
“Ahem.”
Just then, Caleb suddenly coughed Lightly.
Brian seemed to have understood what he meant and immediately changed the topic. “Debra, if you and Caleb can mark each other, you’ll be able to recover faster.”
Caleb quickly echoed his sentiments. “Yes, and besides, you’ll become stronger, too.”
