When Ken ended his phone call and turned around, he found that Brian had already left. Where did he go?

Meanwhile, Brian was driving quickly to Diana's dormitory. It was nine o'clock at night. Several students walked on the road, chatting with their friends. Most of them were tired after a day's study, so few of them noticed him.

Driving to the dormitory, Brian took out his phone to call Diana to come downstairs. When he was searching for her name in his phone contact book, he saw two people walking toward him. One was Diana, and the other was the man he had seen Diana with that day by the restaurant.

Why were they coming home together?

Earlier that day, hearing Brian would be out for the banquet that night, Diana came back to school early. Then she got a call from Kyle.

"I have some questions for you about the program Professor Morgan mentioned last time." Kyle's gentle voice came to Diana's ear through the phone.

Thinking of her thesis, Diana was cheered up. She had to cooperate with Kyle and learn from him. In the past three years in the college, Diana had failed several major subjects. And she knew little about the Professor's program.

Fortunately, Kyle was her tutor. He was a true genius in medicine, just back from working abroad. Though she knew little about the program, Kyle could surely guide her and teach her.

They worked hard on the project together for two hours. With Kyle's careful explanation, Diana had a good idea of the program. If she could finish it successfully, she would be able to graduate. Thinking of that, Diana was elated.

Walking out of the lab, Kyle smiled gently. "Can I walk you to your dormitory?"

Diana nodded happily. She had many more questions about the program that needed explaining.

They chatted all the way happily. As they approached the dormitory building, Kyle suddenly stopped and looked at the man sitting in his car beside the dormitory entrance.

Diana caught up with him and found he was stood still. She asked, confusedly, "Kyle?"

Kyle answered her with a big smile. He had a gorgeous face, and his gentle smile made him more charming.

"Don't move."

What's wrong? Diana was confused.

Kyle reached out his hand and put it on Diana's head.

Though feeling strange, Diana stood still. She gazed at him and asked, "Kyle?"

"There is a leaf in your hair." Kyle removed his right hand from her head with a leaf in his fingers.

Kyle stood very close to Diana. She could feel the heat from his body and be feeling very flushed. Wasn't this a too intimate and close gesture?

Diana didn't realize her blank expression toward Kyle was interpreted in a different way by the man watching them in his car. Brian stared at Diana. From his angle, Diana's blank expression was one of admiration and love.

Brian clenched the steering wheel. Diana treated him coldly but was so happy with this other man. And this man was very handsome!

Taking a deep breath, Brian turned on the engine. With a rumbling, he pulled away from the curb.

Diana and Kyle were standing under a tree. The rumbling sound brought Diana's mind back into focus. She stepped back to a comfortable distance from Kyle and then turned in the direction of the rumbling sound.

The Bentley logo on the car shined under the streetlamp. How pretentious to make such a noise at night just to show off his famous car! How rude!

Diana sneered at the driver silently and waved goodbye to Kyle. She walked back to her dormitory with light, quick steps.

She had an outline of her thesis!

Thinking of the progress she'd made with her work, Diana was elated and slept deeply.

The following afternoon, Ken waited at the school gate as usual. Diana got ready deliberately slowly in the dormitory. Then her phone rang.

Ken's young voice sounded in Diana's ear. "Boss is not in a good mood. You'd better show up on time."

Diana sighed to herself. She answered, "Alright, alright. I'm coming. Just wait a minute."

Ken kept silent all the way. He seemed to have something to tell Diana but held his tongue hesitantly.

Diana noticed his hesitation and couldn't help muttering, "Just say what you want to say."

"What did you say to my boss?" Yesterday night, after Brian arrived home from his visit to Diana's college, he stayed silent and asked Ken to drink with him. It seemed that something had happened, but Brian wouldn't say. Ken was afraid of asking him, so he came to Diana for an answer.

"We didn't say anything." Diana felt strange. "You were there when I felt his pulse yesterday."

"He came to you yesterday night. What did you talk about with him then?"

"He came for me?" Diana frowned and felt quite strange. "I was in the lab with my tutor the whole time. I didn't see him."

Diana suddenly realized what had happened and looked at Ken in a shock. "You must be delusional," she said, "nothing happened!"

As they arrived at Brian's house, Diana grabbed her medical kit and got out of the car. She tried to adjust her expression, wanting to appear cool and calm. Then she walked into the house.

Actually, she was not that mad at Brian. But since she and Brian hadn't spoken in so long, if she was the one who surrendered, she would feel like the loser.

Entering the room, Diana instantly felt the tension emanating from within. Ken was right; Brian was not in a good mood. But it was none of her business. She was just a physician. All she had to do was to treat him.

Diana felt Brian's pulse and prescribed him some nutritional supplements as usual. During the treatment process, Brian gazed at her with his sharp, cold eyes, which made Diana feel quite uncomfortable.

In such a stressful atmosphere, Diana felt very awkward. She cleared her throat and wanted to say something to break the tension. "You have been taking medicine for days. Do you feel any better?" Diana felt embarrassed and spoke in a low voice. But at least she was the first one to compromise!

"You talk so weakly. What's wrong with you? Are you too poor to buy food?" Brian replied coldly.

Diana was shocked by his reply. She didn't expect Brian would reply to her compromise in that way, it was very hurtful.

Diana didn't know what to say and simply murmured, "I'll go to boil the medicine."
