Bab 317: Her Biggest Flaw.

Arissa left the ward after she shared a short conversation with the occupants in the ward. She did not contribute so much to the conversation, she most times stayed quiet and watched them laugh heartily at one of two of Richard's jokes with a grateful and fulfilled smile on her lips. 

Leaving the ward with her phone clenched tightly in her fist, she pressed her back on the door and started at the empty door nurse seat, and then, her eyes trailed down to a particular spot in the hallway. 

That spot! The particular spot where her father almost took her life and the particular spot where she realized life wasn't always about family. 

She forgave her family for selling her out because technically, they did not. She was the one who picked up that as a choice rather than to watch Adele die. 

But even at that, most times when she sits in a quiet corner, she would begin to wonder what would have happened to her had she not accepted to marry Nicklaus.
