Capítulo 36: Welcome to Xu International, Mrs. Xu

His voice broke the momentary silence, bringing her back to reality.

"For you to keep thinking about it... surely it's not silly talking," Leslie replied weakly. She screwed the thermal flask lid before putting it back into the paper bag.

Calix's lips curled up. He pulled the steering to the left, maneuvering his car to enter an intersection. His eyes remained on the road as he responded.

"I've come to terms with it. If I let it interfere with my life, wouldn't it be a waste? Coming out of a coma means having a second chance to live, Leslie. No need to cut my joy away by overthinking."
