Chapter: 972

In the past, Rosalee was too cutesy. Because of this, he never actually liked her. But of course, he didn't openly express his dislike for her.

After all, they both got what they needed from this relationship, and that was what was important.

Hans was in need of a famous and obedient girlfriend, and Rosalee played that role well.

They had easily reached an agreement, signed a contract, and pretended to be a couple from then on.

It wasn't that easy, but everything went according to plan.

It had been a while since their fake relationship started, but Hans had never seen Rosalee act like this before. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

“About your face... If you need my help, don't hesitate to tell me.

Since the anesthesia had begun to wear off, the stitches on her face made her feel like there were several ants biting on it, causing her intense pain.

Hearing this, Rosalee let out a bitter smile, while her eyes were filled with hatred. This sight made Hans feel like his chest was being pierced repeatedly.

At this moment, he might not be able to see her beautiful face, but he could perceive the unyielding strength from her soul.

He knew it might be unwarranted, so he coughed to hide his urge to comfort Rosalee.

“Anyway, is Norah Wilson working here at Concord Hospital?"

“Yes, she was the one who treated my wound."

“I see. Should we go now? I'll drive you home."

Right now, several paparazzi were already swarming the hospital entrance, and Rosalee's assistant was yet to arrive. Hence, Hans felt that it was his responsibility to take her home.

Out of nowhere, he reached out and held Rosalee's hand. This should be the first time he had shown such genuine tenderness to her.

Of course, Rosalee was well aware of this. Feeling the gentle warmth in her hand, she had mixed feelings. She had longed for this very moment for a long while, but now that it finally happened, it felt like it didn't seem to matter as much as she had imagined.

Rosalee was a public figure, and so it didn't take a long time before the news about her went viral. The photos of her injury flooded across major entertainment websites.

Obviously, the paparazzi would want the latest scoop. Therefore, they swarmed at the hospital, waiting for a chance to get some worthwhile material.

But since it was a hospital, such a serious disturbance was unacceptable. Eventually, the hospital's security team intervened, and that was the only time that the situation became under control.

Despite the commotion outside, Norah remained unaffected and composed as she stayed in the emergency department office. At this point, Rosalee hadn't made any public statements yet. Norah wasn't sure how Rosalee was doing after the treatment, and she wondered if she would even return to the hospital the following week for the scheduled follow-up check-up.

At the same time, Norah didn't expect to have any more interactions with Dolores. But to her surprise, she suddenly saw her in the hospital.

Dolores was wearing a black dress, had her long hair styled in a centipede braid, and had delicate makeup. Together with her were several middle-aged men and women, suggesting that all of them were together.

The nurse next to Norah went closer to her side and informed, "The teachers from the No. 1 High School are here for their check-ups.
