"Thank you." Finn Morgan reached out to take it. "Then I won’t trouble you anymore. I’ll change her dressing on time when we get back." With that, Finn handed the medicine bottle to the girl.
He picked her up by the waist and walked straight out.
Ian Shelby looked somewhat surprised towards the door, "Aren’t you going to observe for another night? There’s a bed here! You both can rest!"
"No need, didn’t you say she’s fine now?" Finn answered without pausing, "I’ll change her dressing on time! Don’t worry!"
"Thank you!" Hailey Hale responded, turning back to smile at him, "Thank you, Dr. Shelby!"
But Finn quickened his pace.
"You’re welcome." Ian Shelby removed his gloves, maintaining a gentle expression.
In the courtyard, a bodyguard opened the car door, Finn placed Hailey Hale into the car, and then slipped in himself.
It was only when the car drove off that Finn found a sense of security and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If they stayed any longer, she might have asked Ian Shelby for his WeChat. After all, Ian’s charisma was right there, far surpassing that pretty boy Anton Miller in substance.
Moreover, Finn understood Hailey Hale’s infatuated nature very well.
Even after being bitten by a snake, she still had the mood to check out handsome guys; Finn was truly speechless.
The car headed towards Celestial Heights.
The car interior was warmly lit with a yellow glow. Hailey Hale sat beside him, her injured leg resting on his thigh, her puzzled gaze fixed on his handsome face, "What’s wrong with you? Not happy?"
"No," he replied calmly.
"But why do I feel like you’re unhappy?" she asked with concern. "Something wrong at work?"
Finn tugged at the corner of his lips, "No."
"Good then." She nodded reassuringly, recalling Ian Shelby’s focused yet gentle manner as he bandaged her wound.
A gentle smile naturally appeared on her lips, "Turns out he’s so handsome, good-looking and talented, and he even developed a cancer treatment drug. That’s amazing."
Finn continued listening without making a sound. Yes, amazing, a god admired by thousands.
But he didn’t want Hailey Hale to idolize anyone.
After a while, she sighed again, "Oh dear, we left too quickly just now, I didn’t even get a chance to add him on WeChat! It’s all your fault for rushing me!"
Finn leaned back into the seat and began to rest his eyes.
Hailey Hale’s curious gaze lingered on his face. What was up with him? Tired from climbing waterfalls?
He was especially worried when she got bitten by a snake.
Now that she was fine, shouldn’t he be happy?
Alright, considering he accompanied her to see the doctor, she’d obediently keep quiet and let him sleep for a while.

A white Maybach drove into Celestial Heights, came to a steady stop in the underground parking lot, and the bodyguard got out to open the car door, "Special Assistant Morgan, we’re here."
Finn opened his eyes and got out first, "Thank you."
"You’re welcome, I’ll be off then."
Then Finn extended his hand towards the girl in the car, "Scoot over a bit, I’ll carry you upstairs." His voice contained a touch less gentleness.
She hesitated, "Wouldn’t it be awkward if someone saw us ?"
"What’s there to feel awkward about?" Finn asked flatly, "It’s not like I haven’t carried you today. Didn’t Dr. Shelby say so? You need to rest quietly and stay off your feet; are you really able to walk?"
Well, Hailey Hale didn’t want to worry her mom, since her mom was coming back soon, so she needed to heal quickly.
So she extended her arms toward him.
Finn bent down to lift her out; she wrapped her arms around his neck, and when their faces were just inches apart, she almost held her breath, her eyes, like black gemstones, feeling a bit embarrassed and didn’t dare to look at him directly.
