Daniella nodded.

“So, does this mean you said yes?”

With a cheeky smile on his face, Xavier stood up and took out the necklace from the brocade box. “Come here. I‘ll put it on for you.”

Xavier raised his eyebrows at her. “We have to act properly so they‘ll believe us.”

He undid the pendant necklace, approached her, and put the necklace on her in the fashion of a hug. Even though it was just an act, Veronica still blushed because of how intimate the move was.

The nurses at the door cheered in excitement.

“Aw. How touching!”

“Oh, my God. If I wasn‘t a nurse, I might have the time to fall in love and be in a relationship myself.” |

“Kiss, kiss, kiss!”

Yes, yes! Kiss!”

“Hahaha….”

More nurses joined in on the fun and even tried to make it a big deal. Not only that, they were even standing aside while filming videos and cheering.

Immediately, Veronica was speechless. She felt helpless at the nurses outside her room.
