Shane raised his head from the computer, revealing his dashing face.

He didn’t look at her phone. Instead, he raised his eyebrows and remarked, “I know. She is extremely talented in design. A trivial competition like this isn’t much of a challenge for her.”

“You really are confident in her abilities,” Shane commented with an awkward smile.

Shane returned his attention to his computer. “I’m not the only one. Her talent is good enough to inspire confidence from everyone.”

“Is that so?” Jacqueline’s gaze darkened and didn’t say another word.

After a while, when she saw that Natalie’s design was almost finished and all that was left was to color it, she took a screenshot while Shane wasn’t looking. After that, she flipped aside her blanket.

Shane looked at her. “What is it?”

“I want to go to the bathroom.” Jacqueline slid her phone back into her hospital gown.

Shane saw her action but didn’t think too much of it. After putting his laptop aside, he helped her out of bed and into the bathroom. “Will you be fine by yourself? If not, I’ll get the nurse to help you.”

 

“It’s alright.” Jacqueline waved with a gentle smile. “Although I’m still weak, I can manage this.”
