As Mark entered the ward, Jazz got up from his seat o n the couch and walked over to him, "Hey, mom called and asked you to head home."
Summer, lying on the bed, flipped over to face them as she heard Jazz speak up.
"Okay," Mark answered nonchalantly. He shifted his eyes to Summer, and his gaze landed on the red patch on her cheek.
"I, too, want to head back," she said as she sat up.
She figured their parents might be in a big shock and overwhelmed with worry after hearing about the commotion on the news.
Retracting his gaze on her, Mark asked Jazz, "What did the doctor say?"
"He told me to take extra care, but I still can walk about!" She rushed to answer before Jazz could.
Getting off the bed carefully, Summer tried to walk as she took small steps forward after Jazz went out of the room to get her discharge procedures done.
Mark’s brows furrowed as he watched her. He walked towards her, and she was carried bridal style in his arms.
As she stared up at him and gazed at his chiseled features, her feeling of surprise had been replaced with butterflies fluttering in her stomach, and she felt her cheeks heating up. Being truthful to her heart, she leaned in his warmth quietly while her lips curled into a soft smile.
His gaze shifted downwards as he glanced at her. He silently hummed to himself as he realized she was enjoying his warmth.
From behind, Jazz watched them, feeling a lump forming in his throat. Shifting his gaze bitterly, he looked away.
As they stepped into the Valentine Mansion, Summer froze when she saw Amara on the couch. She knitted her brows and wondered why Amara was there.
Meanwhile, Mark was fixated on the graceful lady who stood behind the couch. His expression changed, and his eyes had a swirl of emotion as he clenched his fists.
Upon seeing the lady, Jazz froze as well. He was curious as to when she returned to their mansion. Summer did not notice Mark's change in expression a s all of her attention was on Amara.
