He felt like such a beast.
Louis Cox clenched his teeth and cursed under his breath twice, catching up to walk by her side. He lowered his gaze to her soft, wet hair, feeling something was off.
He paused in thought for a few seconds.
He cursed again and reached out to lift his hat, placing it on Mia Ginger's head.
The brim was long enough to shield her from some of the rain.
Mia didn't resist.
They walked a few more steps.
As she looked up, Koa Jackson was coming up the steps with an umbrella.
The hospital was extremely busy on Mondays, and knowing that Aiden Jiang had someone taking care of things, he felt slightly relieved. Seeing the weather, he grew a bit uneasy and drove over right after work in the morning.
Did he still arrive late?
The black umbrella isolated him in a small world. He tilted the handle slightly backward, lifting his gaze to look at Mia through the heavy rain.
She was soaked, wearing a black baseball cap.
