Andrew saved me?
Considering what happened earlier, I didnât quickly believe Andrewâs claim.
Instead, I asked cautiously, âMr.
Pierce, if youâre the one who saved me, could you please tell me exactly how it happened? What did you do to become my savior?â
Andrew smiled, not in a mocking way, but like he genuinely found my caution amusing.
âSure.
â
He let go of my hand and took out a clean handkerchief from his pocket.
He used it carefully to wipe the chair before sitting beside my bed.
His every movement was graceful and noble.
I felt a bit moved.
My gut told me Andrew wasnât just an ordinary guy, but someone important.
The calm and confidence he had seemed like traits of someone used to being in charge, and they didnât seem fake.
But right now, my main focus was on my own situation.
I didnât want any more complications in my Life.
âIâd like to hear all the details, Mr.
Pierce,â I asked politely.
Andrew nodded, thinking about his words before speaking.
âThat day, you were outside, just after giving birth.
A vampire was attracted to your blood and attacked you.
I happened to pass by, and feeling sorry for you, I saved you and your daughter.
â
âDaughter?â I was surprised for a moment.
âYes.
â Andrew nodded.
âWhen I found you, you were already fighting the vampire for a while.
You got hurt badly trying to protect your child.
After I scared the vampire off, you were almost dead, so I had to take you to the hospital.
Youâve been in intensive care for a few days, and today the nurses said you were well enough for visitors.
â
As Andrew told his story, I tried to remember what happened, but my mind was blank.
Luckily, a werewolfâs instincts were strong, and I could tell Andrew was telling the truth.
Worried, I asked, âWhereâs my child now? Is she safe?â
Andrew replied, âDonât worry about her.
Sheâs in the room next door.
Iâve made sure professionals have been taking care of her since you both came to the hospital.
Sheâs doing fine.
â
I felt relieved.
I realized that Andrew, with his obvious strength, had complete control over me.
If he had bad intentions, he could have easily harmed me and my child; there was no need to wait until now, or to make up stories.
His manner made it clear to me that he wasnât the enemy I had feared.
I admitted my mistake and apologized sincerely.
âMr.
Pierce, thank you for saving me and my child.
Iâm sorry for reacting so quickly; it wasnât necessary.
â
Andrew didnât seem bothered by the misunderstanding, waving his hand casually.
âNo worries.
Itâs normal to be cautious with strangers.
â
Then he asked, âCan I ask about how youâre feeling physically? Any discomforts?â
âIâm mostly okay apart from the memory loss,â I confessed.
âMemory loss?â
