Seeing Nina in this state, Nash could not help but furrow his brows. "Didn't you go to the hospital for a check-up?"

"Yeah, they gave me some medicine and I'm taking it."

A shiver ran down Nina's spine, her throat constricted. She avoided meeting Nash's piercing black eyes, afraid he might see through her.

Nash's frown deepened. "It's been a day or two since you went. What did they prescribe? Let me ask Caleb. If it doesn't work, I'll have him bring you something else."

The doctor prescribed calcium and folic acid tablets, which Nina had already swapped out. If she showed them to Caleb, being a doctor, he'd spot the switch right away! Nina had to change the subject. "It's only been a day or two, like you said. It's not that quick. And didn't you give me a box of stomach medicine last time?"

"Okay," Nash replied, keeping his words brief. But he could not ignore Nina's apparent eagerness to leave.
