While Satan seemingly knew who the caller was, Jude took a deep breath and answered the phone call. "Hello."

"Are you in bed, Jude?" Wyatt spoke with a tired voice, suggesting that he was likely on a night shift or just done with his work.

"Oh, I'm just about to hit the hay," Jude replied while gazing at Satan.

"I saw your message right after I was just done with an operation. Are you coming back?" Despite Wyatt's exhausted voice, he could barely contain his excitement. After all, the woman that he had been waiting for was finally going to come back.

"Yeah, the flight is tomorrow, and I'll probably arrive at night."

"Oh, sure. I'll pick you up then." Wyatt was over the moon. "How is Satan? Has he recovered?"

"Yeah, he is doing fine. He can already stand and walk for a few steps. So, I think it won't take much longer to fully recover," Jude answered in an honest manner.

"That's great! Alright, it's getting late, so you should go to bed. Good night!" Wyatt said thoughtfully and hung up the call.

Soon, Jude put down her phone, knowing the call's interference likely indicated that things would never work out for her and Satan again. Thus, she began to put on her clothes one by one, telling herself that she shouldn't betray Wyatt no matter how much she loved Satan.

In the meantime, Satan knew what Jude was thinking as he realized he had gotten a little too carried away. Then, he was prompted by his conscience to restrain himself from betraying Wyatt. After all, he was the one who performed his surgery and saved his life. No! Wyatt was kind enough to let Jude come and take care of me, plus he is the reason I'm still breathing. I mustn't repay him this way!
