Capítulo 236: Just A Friend.

Both men walked side by side, respectfully giving the next person his space. There was also a tight unfriendly silence between them. 

The unfriendly air came directly from Nicklaus. He doesn't want to have anything that wasn't work-related to talk to this doctor with anymore. 

He realized he have to indulge and protect Arissa from all angles if he doesn't want to be emotionally destroyed again for the second time by a woman. 

Although, Arissa hasn't left him. She hasn't spoken about leaving for a while now yet that wasn't enough to give Nicklaus the assurance he wants. 

There was a searing pain deep down in his chest right now meanwhile, on the outside he looked unaffected by Collins's presence. He saw how Arissa cares about the doctor which counts as more than enough for a reason why he should be scared. 

A woman's heart should never be tagged as stable. Their heart blinks and changes without a reason. His mother was a solid example of that.
