Did he really need Courtney to urge him to apologize? Couldn't he do it on his own?
I couldn’t help but answer shortly, “I am good.”
Fortunately, the fire was quickly handled, so only part of the ER area was affected.
Soon, the patients were asked to return to the ward.
Dominic said he would take Courtney back to her room and accompanied her for a while, so I immediately said that I wanted to go back home first.
On the way home, I opened one of social media, X, and saw Courtney posted a photo with the caption that read, “Thank you for saving me. I don’t know what I would do if I didn’t have you, my Alpha.”
Then, as if not satisfied, she also uploaded a photo on WhatsApp which showed a little of my husband's shoulder.
A week ago, I felt betrayed and confronted him. But then, it seemed like just another exhausting task, another obstacle in a race I no longer wanted to win.
Even when I knew Dominic chose to stay at the hospital, a surprising sense of detachment came over me. I suddenly realized that his presence or absence barely affected my emotions anymore. I didn't feel as sad when he wasn't around.
