Scarlett could not understand.

She had worked with Wilfred for so many years, but she had never seen him like this before.

Wilfred did not say anything. He placed Nina in the back seat, then drove away without looking back.

Scarlett watched his car leave, feeling a twinge of sadness. He did not even explain himself to her. Had he really become indifferent to life and death?

But she could not just watch him throw his life away.

Scarlett clenched her fists tightly, calming herself down before releasing her grip. She then casually brushed her red hair as if nothing had happened, got into her car, and left the scene. Wilfred took Nina straight home.

Since he did not know the code to her apartment, he carried her into his own home.

He laid her on the sofa. After ensuring she was not injured, he sat quietly beside her, waiting.

His gaze lingered on Nina's face, his eyes filled with emotion. The bandages on his exposed arm were clearly visible.

He waited like this, doing nothing.

About an hour later, Nina woke up.
