Welcome to a tale that echoes through the luxurious enclaves of the capital to its very downtrodden streets.
...
A team of medical professionals in white coats and uniforms hurriedly approached.
Ananya attempted to halt one of the doctors, but he was moving too quickly to notice her. Just as he was about to collide with her, Luv grabbed the back of his coat, stopping him abruptly.
The doctor turned around in annoyance, only to be silenced by the icy gaze of the notorious Chauhan heir.
Fear flashed in his eyes as he stuttered, "S-sorry? I-I mean may I help you sir?"
"Not me, her." Luv directed the doctor's attention towards Ananya.
The doctor turned to face Ananya, momentarily speechless at her beauty, before asking, "Yes?"
"Doctor, the patient has consumed two tablets of aspirin before coming here when he got the attack." Ananya informed him promptly, oblivious to his stupid expression.
"Okay, okay thanks for informing." The doctor quickly acknowledged, regaining his composure before rushing down the hallway, disappearing behind the OT doors where two doctors had already gone to.
Ananya turned to Luv and smiled in gratitude, her voice barely above a whisper, "Thank you."
Ananya's smile pierced Luv's heart like an arrow, prompting him to quickly respond to her with a gentlemanly smile, "It's okay. Anyone in my place would have done the same."
Internally, he couldn't help but think sarcastically, 'Even though none were doing anything except gawking and gossiping.'
Just then, his secretary approached him and whispered in his ear, "Sir, the paperwork is done, and the call has been made. He is on his way."
Luv nodded then turned to Ananya, "I've an urgent matter to attend to, so I've to leave."
Ananya nodded silently.
A little taken aback by her swift concession, Luv then offered, "If you want, I could drop you somewhere?"
At this point, Ananya was reminded of her distress just before she got involved with the old man's accident.
