Qiang and Huiling widened their eyes in shock and quickly defended themselves.

"I mean where is Guang? He was with you people right?" Qiang asked.

"I want a leave from the office tomorrow so I was looking for brother Huang, where is he?" Huiling asked.

Giving both of them a very weird look for a couple of seconds, Yinhai said, "Hmm, brother Huang and Guang are with brother Zian and others."

Awkwardly scratching her forehead, Huilinh excused herself to the washroom.

"Qiang, how long are you planning to hide this from Huiling?" Becca asked.

"Hide what from Huiling?" Yinhai asked.

Becca and Qiang widened their eyes in shock and gave Yinhai a weak smile. Helplessly shaking his head, Ashton sighed and hooked his arms around Yinhai's neck.

"Dude, why are you interested in their girly talks? Come, let's go and find out how sister Clara is doing."

After Ashton took Yinhai away, Becca and Qiang breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay so now, how long are you planning to hide this from Huiling?"

Qiang shrugged her shoulders and shook her head, "I have no idea but I'll figure it out."

"What do you mean by later? When will your later come? Ahh even I have to lie to Huiling along with you." Becca snapped.

Poking Becca's arm, Qiang grinned, "I promise I'll solve this soon."

"Fine."

…..

30 mins later.

Discussing something with the assistant doctor, Mian stepped out of the emergency room.

When Ben saw her, he quickly approached her and asked, "How is she Mian? Is she okay? She was bleeding a lot and then her head—"

Placing his hand on Ben's shoulder, Quin said, "Calm down and let her talk."

"Don't worry brother Ben, she is out of danger now. We will shift her to the room soon." Mian informed them before walking away along with the other doctor.

Ben breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the nearby bench. Each passing second when she was inside was like a ticking bomb for him. The thought of losing her forever made his heart ache.

Just then Zian arrived along with others after dealing with Farak and his craziness. The number of bizarre things that they found in his farmhouse was very disturbing and horrifying so they decided to handover Farak to the police so that they could deal with him accordingly.

"How is sister Clara?" Zian asked Ashton.

"She is out of danger now."

Looking around when Guang saw Qiang, he smiled at her but the latter rolled her eyes at him and walked away along with Becca.

Guang frowned and was about to follow her when Zian called him over.

….

Inside the room.

Sitting down beside Clara, Ben held her hand and brushed his thumb lightly on the scratch mark right on her knuckles. Seeing the bandage wrapped around her head and foot, his heart ached even more.

Patting Ben's shoulder, Sam said, "It's okay man, she is alright now."

Ben sighed and nodded his head. He was glad that she was okay. Now he couldn't wait to sort out everything and lead a happy life with her where he would give her all the happiness and love that she deserved.

Though everything that happened was a misunderstanding that was partially created by Philip but Ben also blamed himself for being careless. Only if he had followed his instincts and investigated a bit deeper about the Lafit family then maybe the situation would've been different now.

Just then Mian entered the room along with Clara's reports. Turning towards Philip, she asked, "Sister Clara was seeing a psychiatrist?"

Philip frowned and shook his head, "I have no idea."

Mian mocking chuckled and retorted, "So you had been staying with her but you have no idea that she was under anxiety medication?"

"No I—"

Ben frowned and asked, "What? Anxiety?"

"Hmm, not only that, there is a very high count of sleeping pills in her blood which means that she had been taking them regularly." Mian added.

Philip frowned deeper and asked, "What?" When Ben gave him a furious look, he added, "I swear Ben, she never told me anything about her anxiety attacks or those pills. In fact, I never saw her taking one."

Mian sighed and helplessly shook her head, "Anyway, other things are okay and there is nothing to worry about. It's good that we found out earlier so we can treat it accordingly. We have a very renowned psychiatrist in our hospital right now so I have already booked an appointment already."

"That is great so now let's not talk about the past anymore. Clara is okay and that is what matters the most. We all should go and let her rest." Singtan said before patting Ben's shoulder and leaving along with Ming.

After everyone left, Philip stepped forward and said, "I'll come tomorrow—" looking at Clara, he added, "I think I owe her an explanation."

When Ben nodded his head, Philip sighed left.

…..

Outside the hospital.

"Babe wait—" Guang shouted before rushing after Qiang who was ignoring him repeatedly. He had no idea what he had done that pissed her off.

Grabbing her wrist, he pulled her into his embrace and placed her chin on her shoulder. "I missed you babe."

"Let go."

He frowned and asked, "Why? Why are you angry? Did I do something?" Kissing her nape, he added, "I am sorry for whatever I have done, I promise I won't repeat it."

"Ahh so are you telling me that you won't let Jasmine blow you in the future?" Qiang snapped.

Widening his eyes in shock, he shouted, "What? And who Jasmine?"

Squeezing out of his embrace, she gritted her teeth, "Don't pretend like you don't know who Jasmine is."

Guang thought for a while and asked, "Jasmine from highschool?"

"There, I knew that you were pretending. How can you not know her?" Groaning in frustration, she stomped her foot on the ground and snapped, "I thought I was your first kiss and I will be your first in everything in the future but who would've thought that Jasmine has already—ahh God I don't even want to think about it."
