The surgery was a great success , and the days that followed marked the beginning of a long recovery process . During this period , she and Lucian had become close friends who could talk about anything . He would remind her to take her medicine and apply ointment on time every day , accompany her in doing rehabilitation exercises , and even show up at her door to scold her after she posted food on Instagram , insisting she should watch her diet . To this , Anastasia would always reply with a cheerful smile , " Next time , I promise ." Lucian could never win against her , so he would quietly throw away the plate full of spicy food and roll up his sleeves to prepare something light and nutritious .

One reason was that Anastasia felt she was not worthy of someone as outstanding as him . The other reason was that Anastasia was afraid .

I'm the lead surgeon , and I won't let anything happen to you . " His gentle yet firm voice once again soothed her restless and anxious heart . It seemed that long ago , Edward would comfort her in the same way , stroking her head and telling her not to be afraid , that he was there . But later , he was the one who personally pushed her into the abyss . Seeing the sadness in Anastasia's eyes , Lucian asked , " What's wrong ?
