Chapter 44: That's even more thrilling!

After that night, with Blair's help, Ethan was doing rehab every day and was looking better and better. He went from needing help to eat to being able to get out of bed and take a few steps on his own.

The hospital called it a miracle and ran all sorts of tests on him.

The final verdict was that his condition was still there, but his physical health was improving.

It could only be chalked up to a medical miracle.

Scarlett watched Ethan smile in the sunlight, and while she was happy, her feelings were incredibly mixed.

According to their agreement.

After Ethan got out of bed, she had promised to accept his confession.

"What on earth did I agree to!" Scarlett covered her face, her head pounding. She had thought about brushing it off or outright rejecting him.

But she hadn't expected the critically ill kid to fight off his illness for her sake.

Any woman would find it hard to resist a man who did that for her.
