A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

After Louis left the room, Taylor gently called to Scott. "How are you feeling?"

Seeing that Louis had left the room, Scott cowered in the corner of his bed. He did not know the woman who was speaking to him now.

Taylor fell silent, thought for a minute, and asked, "Scott, don't you remember me? I had dinner with you and your brother Louis before."

Scott had been making progress because of her treatment. He had been no longer afraid of her, but because she had been busy handling so many matters lately, she had seldom seen him. All her previous efforts with him seemed to have gone to waste now.

She felt sorry for Scott, and wanted to do what she could to give him the best medical treatment.

Scott did not relax. He looked even more tensed and scared now, holding his quilt tightly.

He looked at Taylor warily.

Taylor did not move and started talking to Scott calmly.

It was more like she was talking to herself. She talked about everything she knew about Scott and what Louis had told her.

Louis was leaning against the door outside. He had heard nothing from inside the room for some time now. He was beginning to worry.

He frowned and grabbed the doorknob, ready to rush in as soon as he heard any noise.

Hearing Taylor mention Louis, Scott relaxed a little, but still stayed at the corner of the bed.

Taylor took a small step forward.

Scott tensed up once again.

Taylor immediately stopped and took a deep breath. She continued to talk to Scott.

From the subtle changes in his facial expression and movement, Taylor surmised that Scott was now slowly letting his guard down around her.
