His gaze was tender as it met hers.
Stella understood the unspoken sentiment.
She averted her eyes back to the operating room.
âMy grandfather is still in surgery.
I canât afford to focus on anything else.
You may go now.

Understanding Clintâs importance in Stellaâs life, Matthew respected her wishes.
But before taking his leave, he conveyed his sentiment.
âIâll be here, waiting for your forgiveness.

After Matthewâs departure, his words reverberated in Stellaâs thoughts.
During this testing time, she often found herself contemplating.

Like now, when her grandfather was in a crisis, he resolved urgent matters effortlessly.
So, what could she complain about?

âHow is my grandpa?â Her voice cracked slightly.
Farris met her gaze and gave her a small smile.
âHeâs fine.
The operation was a success.
Heâs going to be discharged once heâs rested fully in a few days and after weâre done observing him.
You should go rest.
â
Stella sighed in relief, all the tension in her body immediately fading away.
She grabbed Farrisâ hand in hers happily.
âThank you so much, Dr.
Barnes.
