    Nancy nodded in agreement. “Uh-huh.”


    Nichs gently held her hand. “Nancy, I want to bepletely honest with you and not keep any.


    secrets. That was indeed a woman’s voice, but we were at the hospital, not at home. I was injured, and


    she saved me. She didn’t have any family around, and I felt grateful for her help. So, I stayed at the


    hospital for two more days until she had mostly recovered before leaving.”


    His exnation was sincere and detailed. The only thing he kept from Nancy was the woman’s name,


    ‘Madelline’.


    It was at this moment that Nancy looked at him, and tears started streaming down her cheeks.


    Seeing her cry, Nichs became flustered. He reached out and gently wiped her tears away with his


    fingertips. “Why are you crying? Did I exin something poorly?”


    “No,” she shook her head. “You exined everything very well. But why didn’t you tell me about it on


    the phone? Do you know how heartbroken I was when I heard a woman’s voice in your room? My heart


    shattered, and I couldn’t sleep well all night. I couldn’t stop thinking about you and her. My mind was.


    filled with wild thoughts,” she spoke, tears still welling up in her eyes. She vividly remembered the


    loneliness and fear she felt while huddled under the nket.


    “Don’t cry, Nancy. Please don’t cry, Nichs’s heart broke seeing her in tears. He lowered his head and


    gently kissed away the tears on her face.


    He was so tender and caring: how could he possibly be involved with another woman? In that moment,


    Nancy found peace in her heart. She smiled and let out a lightugh.


    Seeing her smile, Nichs felt a sense of relief. However, he also felt devastated when he thought


    about that day. “Nancy…” He reached out and cradled her face, speaking earnestly, “Do you know why


    I didn’t exin over the phone?”


    “Hmm?”


    He lowered his head, and his nose lightly touched hers as he spoke in a soft, endearing voice,


    “Because I was waiting. I wanted to hear you ask me. I wanted to know that you cared and were


    concerned about me. So, I waited. But in the end, the call got disconnected, and I never heard your


    question.


    “Silly girl, did you know? I really wished you had boldly asked me, ‘Nichs Sallow, why is there a


    woman’s voice in your room in the middle of the night?’ I would have exined myself. At least, it


    would have shown that you love and care about me.


    “But you didn’t, so I thought you didn’t care.”


    As he said these words, Nichs felt a significant weight lifted from his heart. After falling in love with


    her, his thoughts became both simple andplex.


    Upon hearing his words, Nancy reached out to him. She couldn’t resist any longer and tightly wrapped


    her arms around his waist, pressing her whole body against him. “Silly Nick, you’re the silly one. I love


    and care about you so much, how could I not care? You’re the silly one. A silly goose.”


    “Alright, I’m the silly goose, and you’re the cutie pie.” He grabbed her hand and brought it to his lips,


    giving it a gentle kiss.


    Seeing her soft, rosy lips again and remembering their unfinished kiss, he immediately captured the


    back of her head. “Nancy…” he whispered as he looked at her.


    “Hmm?” She blinked, looking at him in confusion.


    “I want to kiss you. Is that okay?” When he earnestly sought her opinion, his gaze was tender.


    Nancy blushed slightly. This time, she wasn’t shy and didn’t hesitate. “No, you can’t,” she suddenly


    replied.


    Nichs’s expression froze for a moment. He felt a bit hurt. However, in the next moment, her soft


    hands hooked around his neck, gently pulling his head down. And then, her soft lips covered his


    without any warning.


    In an instant, his mind wentpletely nk. It took him a moment to react, and as excitement


    washed over him, his chest heaved like the waves of a rough sea.


    So, this is what she meant by ‘No, you can’t.’ She wanted to kiss him first. She wanted to initiate it.


    “That’s what it meant, right? I didn’t misunderstand, did I?” Nichs felt as though his heart had been


    coated with honey. His Nancy always managed to surprise him.


    Her kiss was a bit awkward and inexperienced, but he wasn’t concerned about any of that. His mind


    was filled with only one thought. Nancy kissed me. She initiated the kiss.


    However, just as Nichs was getting lost in his excitement, she suddenly pulled away from him.


    “What’s wrong?” he asked.


    Nancy looked at him with uncertainty, like a timid rabbit. “I…I have very little experience. It seems like


    I’m not as good at kissing as you.”


    It wasn’t just that she had little experience; in fact, all of her experience was with him alone. After


    saying that, her face turned as red as a tomato. She couldn’t believe she had been bold enough to say


    something so embarrassing!


    “Nancy Cohen, you’re embarrassing yourself!” she scolded herself internally.


    Nichs, on the other hand, wore a slow smile. His lips curled, and a seductive expression appeared


    on his handsome face, clearly indicating he was in an excellent mood. “In that case, let me teach you.”


    With those words, he cupped her head and kissed her forcefully. The temperature in the ward


    continued to rise.


    Nancy held onto his clothes with both hands, tilting her head back. She stopped thinking altogether as


    she followed his lead, allowing herself to sink deeper and deeper. After the kiss, she leaned against his


    chest and softly caught her breath.


    In contrast, Nichs remainedposed. More importantly, he deliberately whispered into her car, “Do


    it a few more times, and you won’t get tired”


    The temperature on her face rose even further. It wasn’t until her breathing steadied and she left his


    embrace that she realized an important issue. “Where’s your injury? Why didn’t you tell me?”


    “Remember those two days when we lost contact? I was recovering in the hospital.”


    Upon hearing this, she immediately became anxious. “Nick, why didn’t you tell me you were injured?


    Don’t you know that I would worry?”


    “I was afraid you would, which is why I couldn’t bring myself to tell you.” He held her hand, his


    expression filled with concern.


    “But you worried me even more when you kept it a secret. I thought something terrible had happened


    to you when you didn’t answer my calls for an entire day. Do you know how scared I was? I must warn


    you that no matter what happens in the future, you are not allowed to keep things from me. If I find out,


    I won’t be able to forgive you.”


    “Okay, I promise.”


    As Nichs looked into her eyes, he lowered his gaze, appearing downcast. “I’m sorry, Nancy. Please


    forgive me for not telling you her name. I was too weak. I couldn’t help but be afraid. Please forgive me


    for not having the courage to tell you.”


    She was still shaken, and it took her a while to gather her thoughts. Eventually, she reached out to


    unbutton his clothes. “Where were you injured? Have you fully recovered? Let me take a look.”
