Ariana gently tugged at the hand and said impatiently, “What seems to be the issue? You’ve been apprehended; why the reluctance to unveil yourself?”

A wavering voice at last pierced the hush.

“What’s going on?”

Ariana, her countenance a canvas of bewilderment, hastily turned on the light. There, by her bedside, stood Mitchel, his expression etched with puzzlement.

Ariana gazed at him inquisitively and inquired, “Why are you here?”

Ariana adhered to his directives and bared her injury. After a cursory examination, Mitchel said, “Seems like there are no significant concerns. I’ll schedule a follow-up for tomorrow, and if all checks out, you can be discharged.”

Ariana nodded absently, her mind drifting to the absence of Holden this evening. A trace of disappointment lingered, having missed the opportunity to catch him in the act.

Holden furrowed his brow, taking note of the plastic surgery clinic’s name before casting his gaze upon the second piece of information, bearing the name Theodore Anderson.

At the sight of this name, Holden felt an unexpected twinge of nervousness. He hesitated momentarily before cautiously clicking on the corresponding file.

Following a brief examination, his brows knitted together tightly.
