4 Listening to her accusation , I could only manage a bitter smile .
The leader lost all patience and raised his hand to hit Nora , Shut up , you b * tch ! I immediately stepped in front of Nora .
The full force of the blow landed on my face , and I collapsed to the ground , fighting the dizziness to transfer the money .
Once they had the money , the thugs left satisfied .
7:47 AM < At the same time , the red light in the emergency room went out , and the doctor came out with a sigh of relief , The patient is out of danger but needs to be transferred to intensive care for two days of observation .
Nora didnt spare me a glance , following Jasper into the ward .
I was left to be helped by a passing nurse to bandage my wounds .
I sat in the hospital corridor until dawn , deciding not to tell my parents about any of this .
I still couldnt understand why Jasper fell again this time , but at least he didnt die this time .
When daylight broke , and my phone reminded me I had a flight in four hours , I forced my numb legs to stand .
I looked up to see Nora approaching .
She was carrying freshly made chicken soup , and when she saw me , she instinctively hid the lunch box behind her .
I knew it wasnt for me .
She bit her lip before speaking , her tone softer than usual , probably out of guilt , Why are you still here ? Go home and rest , Ill stay here .
Also , thanks for chasing those people away yesterday , but this matter cant just be left alone .
Once Jasper wakes up , Ill find out who really owes the million in gambling debts .
In essence , she still refused to believe her White Knight was anything but perfect .

I nodded silently , but my legs were too weak to stand .
Seeing this , she helped support me .
Lets go , Ill take you home .
Looking at her downcast eyes , a sour feeling rose in my heart , and I fought back the overwhelming emotions to speak , Nora , if you could choose again , would you still marry me without hesitation ? She responded almost without thinking , Whats gotten into you ? What nonsense are you talking about ? Weve been engaged for twenty years ; who else would I marry ? I forced a smile , discreetly wiping away a tear from my eye .
Just as I was about to push her hand away , a nurse hurriedly ran over , The patient who fell last night is awake , call a doctor quickly ! Her eyes lit up with joy , and she didnt spare me another glance .
Jasper , you head back , Ill talk to you later .
Watching her rush to the ward , my emotions gradually calmed .
Once her figure disappeared down the hall , I whispered to the empty corridor .
Goodbye , Nora .
This time , Im the one letting you go .
