The elevator arrived on the eighth floor, where all of VIP wards were.

Ivan stepped out of the elevator, followed by Rachel, and headed for Victor's room. Just as they were about to open the door, they heard someone shouting from inside the room.

"Fuck off!"

All of a sudden, the door to Victor's room opened. A distraught nurse ran out in a hurry and accidentally bumped into Ivan and Rachel.

Rachel stumbled to the floor, tweaking her ankle on her way down.

Horrified by what she had done, the nurse immediately got on her knees and started apologizing, "I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to bump into you. Please, forgive me!"

With a look of concern, Ivan got on one knee and grabbed Rachel's hand before asking, "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine," Rachel replied while rubbing her ankle to ease the pain. Once she started feeling a little better, she stood up and addressed the frantic nurse crying like a little girl. "It's okay. I know you didn't mean to do that. There's no need to cry."

However, despite Rachel's reassurance, the nurse still wouldn't stop bawling her eyes out. "I'm so sorry! I truly am! Please, forgive me!"

With a lighthearted smile, Rachel stared at the nurse's pitiful face before saying, "Stop blaming yourself. Accidents happen all the time. There's no need to make such a big deal out of it."
