Chapter 1654:
When Carola heard Belinda call Baker by his first name, her expression shifted ever so slightly, her gaze
dropping.
“I didn’t tell them. | figured | could manage by myself,” she said in a low voice.
Belinda gave her a look that was half concerned, half reproachful. “A fever that high isn’t something to brush off.
You shouldn't have chere alone.” With that, she took out her phone and dialed Kylee’s number.
The call rang on and on before disconnecting by itself. No answer. She tried once more—still nothing. Her brow
creased in silent worry.
Looking at her, Carola smiled faintly. “Don’t bother calling. I'll be fine. You must have other things waiting for
you; you can leave. Don’t worry about me.”
“But—" Belinda began, only to be cut off.
“I'm really okay. You can go,” Carola said.
Belinda stood still for a moment, studying her. Then, she gave a slight nod. “Alright, I'll leave. But if anything
comes up, you can call me.”

Carola gave a firm nod. “Alright.”
Belinda turned and walked away. Back in the Cardiac Surgery Department, she handed over her responsibilities
to the next shift, then made her way to the locker room to change before leaving the hospital.
However, once in the elevator, she didn’t press the button for the parking lot level but instead chose the floor
where the emergency department was located.
Belinda’s concern for Carola lingered, refusing to ease.
When she reached the emergency department's infusion room, she found Carola reclining in a chair, already
asleep, her face still flushed with fever. Moving softly to avoid disturbing the quiet, Belinda settled into the seat
beside her.
On her way there, she had tried calling Kylee again, but the call had gone unanswered. Resigned, she had sent a
text to inform Kylee about Carola’s condition.
Now seated next to Carola, Belinda kept a watchful eye. When the first IV bag emptied, she quietly alerted a
nurse to switch it out.

hospital cafeteria’s app, and ordered food, requesting delivery to the room.
