Sending Amanda away was not easy, especially when it had to be done without Arwen noticing any abnormality. But Aiden wouldn''t allow any threat to linger near Arwen, no matter how insignificant it seemed, even if it was just a maid.

Mr. Jones made sure the warning was loud and clear, not because a second chance was up for grabs, but to make Amanda fully understand that the person she dared to offend was beyond anything she or her ancestors could handle.

"Mr. Jones, I have an appointment today. If Aiden comes, let him know I will be back soon," Arwen said on her way out.

Mr. Jones nodded before adding, "Madam, Sir has arranged a driver for you. I will inform him, and he will take you wherever you need to go."

Arwen was about to refuse, but before she could, the butler guessed her intent and spoke again.

"Sir mentioned that your legs need time to heal, so it would be best if you used the driver for now."

With no further argument, Arwen sighed. "Fine, then let the driver know I have an appointment at East City Hospital."

Mr. Jones nodded and left to make the necessary call.

Arwen arrived at the hospital just in time. As she entered, she met Sister Ambrosina, who greeted her with all smiles.

"How are your legs now? Is it healing well?"

Arwen returned the smile and nodded. "Much better now."

They exchanged a few more pleasantries before Arwen continued on to see Dr. Clark. Reaching his office, she was about to knock when Jason called out from behind her.

"You are right on time."

Arwen gave him a sympathetic look. "It sounds like an emergency."

Jason nodded. "Yes, I have to go urgently. I have written down your new prescription, and scheduled your next appointment for two weeks from now."

"Hhm-hm," Arwen hummed in agreement and then said something she had been thinking all this while. "Dr. Clark, since it''s inconvenient for you to travel all the way here just to see me, how about we schedule the next appointment at your hospital?"

Jason considered it for a moment before nodding. "As long as it''s not an inconvenience for you Ms. Quinn. You are my patient and I have to hold full responsibility for you until you are perfectly healed."

"It won''t be an inconvenience," Arwen smiled. "I am recovering well and can move around easily."

"Great. I will have my hospital contact you to set it up," Jason said, before excusing himself first.

Arwen didn''t mind. Doctors, especially those as skilled as Dr. Clark, always had hectic schedules. After she was discharged, she looked him up and learned that he was renowned in the medical field, a master in multiple specialities. At his young age, he had already accumulated more achievements than most could hope in a lifetime.

No doubt, he carries the name of Clarks with pride.

She felt fortunate that Dr. Clark had been there to treat her. From what she had heard, her injuries had been severe when she was first brought to the hospital. Without his expertise, her chances of standing again —let alone dancing —would have been slim.

As she thought that, her mind wandered to the stranger who had saved her that night. She still wanted to meet and thank him, but he hadn''t come forward. Perhaps he had only helped her out of sympathy —after all, who would go to such lengths for someone they didn''t know?

''He must be a good man,'' Arwen thought to herself. ''If only I could meet him one day and express my gratitude.''

As she exited Dr. Clark''s office, her musings were interrupted when she bumped into someone. She was about to apologize for her carelessness but the arrogant voice that followed made her reconsider.

"Arwen, it''s you."
