Before he could finish his sentence, Matthew cut him off sharply.


    “She is fine.


    Take care of yourself, and do not call her again,”


    Matthew asserted, his voiceced with a cold warning.


    Startled by the voice on the other line, Farris realized that it was Matthew who answered the phone.


    Undeterred, he pressed, “Where is Ste? I want to talk to her.


    ”


    “You don’t deserve to see her,” Matthew said coldly.


    Then he ended the call and muted the notifications.

    With a deep breath, Matthew returned to Ste’s side, his protective instincts strong.


    Two hourster, Selene entered the room to conclude the infusion.


    Ste woke from her slumber.


    Selene offered a final piece of advice.


    “Take care of your hand in theing days.


    Don’t strain it.


    If you experience any difort, don’t hesitate to reach out to me.


    ”


    Ste nodded appreciatively, and with Matthew’s support, she left the hospital.


    As they settled back into the car, Ste retrieved her phone and noticed several messages from Farris that had arrived two hours ago.


    She was momentarily taken aback and began to read the messages.


    In the messages, Farris apologized, iming he was unaware of the situation with her hand.


    He promised to thoroughly investigate the matter and provide her with an exnation.


    Ste pondered why she hadn’t noticed her phone ringing earlier, only to realize that it had been muted.


    During the infusion, only Matthew was beside her, and it became evident that he had taken the initiative to mute her phone.


    Ste studied his demeanor and noted his calmness.


    In an attempt to seem nonchnt, she asked casually, “Did Farris say anything on the phone just now?”


    Matthew turned his head slowly, his face expressionless as he replied in an indifferent and cold tone, “It doesn’t matter what he said.


    You should not contact him anymore.


    Let Selene take care of your hand.


    ”


    “I understand that Dr.


    Beckett is apetent doctor.


    But my grandfather was ill before, and Farris did everything in his power to save him.


    I can’t be so heartless,” Ste replied hesitantly.


    “Besides, he couldn’t have spread those rumors online.Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    ”


    Ste suspected that Matthew’s anger stemmed from the rumors circting about her on the inte.


    After all, her medical records were private, and their exposure likely involved someone within the hospital staff.


    However, she couldn’t believe that Farris would be behind it, especially since it wouldn’t benefit him in any way.
