For such a major, high-risk procedure, Barbara's excellent recovery was not only due to Belinda's great surgical skill but also her own strong willpower.
The important thing was that she had overcthe most crucial stage. In a couple of days, Barbara would be able to transfer from the ICU to a regular ward.
"How are you feeling today?" Belinda asked as she approached Barbara's bed.
Barbara replied, "Very good. Just a bit lonely, maybe. I have no one to talk to here." "Just hang in there a little longer," Belinda said. "You're recovering pretty well, but you still need plenty of rest." "I understand. Thank you, Dr. Wright." Barbara smiled sweetly at Belinda.
Barbara's cheerful demeanor surprised Belinda a little. It was the first tshe had seen the girl smile so happily.
It struck her then just how beautiful Barbara was. Her sickly pallor had disappeared, and her features were striking now that she no longer winced in pain all the time.

"Dr. Wright." Belinda nodded in greeting. "Are you here to get supdates on Barbara's condition?" Nalani shook her head with a smile. "No. I know that Barbara is recovering well under your care. I'm here to ask if you're free at noon. My brother and I would like to treat you to a meal."
Belinda blinked, caught off guard by the sudden invitation. Lunch? Nalani and the head of the Wright family wanted to treat her to— Belinda's initial reaction was to politely decline the offer.
"Nalani, you're being far too generous. I honestly didn't do much was for Miss Wright Treating her was simply part of my duty as her doctor. There's really no need for you to treatto a meal."
шо But Nalani's response was warm and insistent. "Dr. Wright, as Barbara's mother, I feel the need to express my gratitude to you properly. If would truly mean a lot toif you agree to lettreat you to a meal. If today doesn't work, we can arrange it for another time." Her tone was gentle but firm. She was clearly determined to show her gratitude to Belinda. Belinda recognized the genuine intent behind the invitation.
