Episode 7

"Good afternoon, Mr. Rayden, allow me to introduce myself, my name is Rafaela, one of the nurses at the Medistra House," said Rafaela, introducing herself with full confidence. After speaking, she even bowed her head slightly as a sign of respect, then lifted her face again with a smile that began to be etched on her red lips.

Rayden's lips curled into a small smile at her sweet manner, a welcome sight after everything that had made his head spin.

Rafaela was a beautiful woman, complete with a tall and full figure. Anyone who laid eyes on her would be instantly enchanted at first glance.

"May I place this rose beside you?" Rafaela asked, raising the flower in her right hand to the level of her own face. The beauty of the flower was perfectly complementary to her lovely appearance.

Indeed, Rafaela was intentionally casting her charm, creating an impression Rayden would never forget from their first meeting.

*I must capture his heart\,* thought Rafaela. Who wouldn't be smitten by Rayden Carter\, not only handsome and dashing\, but also the CEO of one of the most esteemed companies in this city\, Carter Kingdom.

Rafaela's smile broadened when she saw Rayden nod slightly. Although it was a small gesture, with no words spoken, Rafaela felt immense joy.

With graceful steps, she moved closer to Rayden's bed until she stood right beside it, then placed the rose she carried on the bedside table.

"I am glad you made it through the critical period, if you need any assistance, I am ready to help," Rafaela said, smiling even more warmly.

Rayden remained quietly seated but now playfully winked one eye.

"Have you been the one taking care of me?" Rayden asked quietly.

Upon hearing the question, Rafaela nodded her head promptly, affirming the young master's query.

It didn't really matter who took care of him, as long as Rayden knew she had a hand in it—that was Rafaela's thought.

Exiting Rayden's room, Rafaela shouted with joy. Remembering his wink made her more confident that she had won him over.

Her dreams soared even higher of standing by his side.

However, her hopes suddenly collapsed upon seeing a famous model in the city arriving to visit Rayden too, also carrying a bouquet in her hand—but this woman had lilies, not red roses.

The woman named Tamara passed by Rafaela without a glance, as if the nurse didn't exist there at all.

Tamara knocked on Rayden's door. Meanwhile, Rafaela stood frozen, watching the visitor. Watching with an irritated heart.

Soon, Samuel opened the door and bowed to Tamara, a gesture that made Rafaela feel treated differently. Earlier, Rayden's assistant had not shown her such respect.

"Miss Tamara, please come in; Mr. Rayden has been waiting for you."

Thud! Rafaela's heart felt pierced upon hearing Samuel's words. Only minutes ago Rayden had flirtatiously winked at her, yet now there was another woman, and Sam said that Rayden was expecting her.

*Damn it! Blast!* Rafaela fumed silently\, hating to be treated this way.

With her irritation held in check, she finally left. While Tamara entered Rayden's room with a broad smile.

"How could you, only calling me after you woke up," Tamara scolded, they were friends, but with a flirtatious undercurrent.

Rayden chuckled softly; he badly needed the beautiful woman's presence right now.

"I can't move my body, Tamara, my left chest is itchy. Could you scratch it for me?"

Tamara remained silent, just gazing sadly at Rayden lying there weakly. Her heart throbbed with pain, relieved he was safe. What if the accident had taken his life? Tamara's eyes clouded, yet no tears fell.

The beautiful woman approached Rayden, but not to fulfill his request. Instead, she carefully hugged him, even planting a brief kiss on his lips.

Unknown to them, Dr. Disha had also entered the room, merely observing the scene before her dispassionately. She also saw the two bouquets now side by side on the bedside table.

*So\, this man is quite the Casanova\,* Dr. Disha reflected.
