Astrid, heading to Professor Vanitas's office, knocked. To— Tok.
The door slowly opened, revealing Karina peeking her head out.
"Yes?"
"Ah," Astrid said. "Is Professor Vanitas inside?"
"No," Karina shook her head. "The Professor left early today."
"Oh, I see." Astrid felt a pang of disappointment but quickly nodded. "Thank you."
She greeted Karina before turning to leave the university.
Outside, her personal driver was waiting.
Sliding into the car, Astrid instructed, "Elaine Hospital."
The driver nodded, starting the engine, and they drove off. Astrid gazed out the window.
During her time in high school, Astrid had been taking medical courses alongside her regular studies.
She had achieved a Level Three Certification in the medical field after five years of studies, with Level Five being the requirement to become a licensed doctor.
