He knew that the accident had caused significant damage to his spinal cord and the nerves in his leg, and the possibility of being permanently confined to a wheelchair was weighing heavily on him.

"We're going to start with an x-ray of your spinal cord, to see if there's any nerve damage. Then we'll move on to an MRI, to get a more detailed picture." Dr Lee said.

As the machines hummed and whirred around him, Andrew tried to stay as still as possible, even though every fiber of his being was screaming to get up and run away from the situation. Dr. Lee's voice was reassuring, but even that wasn't enough to quell the rising panic in his chest.

Finally, the tests were over, and Dr. Lee began to study the results. Andrew watched him intently, hoping to catch a glimpse of good news in th

    "Am I the only man to see your bare body?" Andrew asked again.Amelia's heart skipped a beat. She felt a sudden jolt of surprise wondering why he asked the question again. The question caught her off guard, and she couldn't help but wonder what had prompted it. Did he suspect something? Did he know about Henry?For a moment, she hesitated before answering, "Yes, Andrew. You're the only one," she said, hoping her voice didn't betray her nervousness.But as she looked into his eyes, she saw nothing but intensity and desire.

    Detective Stone looked at him for a long moment, then nodded. "I understand how you feel, Mr Reynolds," he said. "But you need to be patient. We'll find the person responsible, I promise you that."With that, he turned and left the room, leaving Andrew alone once again.

    The tension in the air was thick, and neither of them spoke for a long moment.Finally, Henry cleared his throat. "Amelia, I'm sorry," he said, his voice low and regretful. "I didn't mean for any of this to happen. I just want you back."Amelia's eyes narrowed. "You want me back?" she spat. "After everything you've done? After the way you've betrayed me?"Henry winced, looking down at the floor. "I know I messed up," he said. "But I love you, Amelia. I always have. And I'll do anything to make things right."Amelia shook her head, her eyes flashing with anger. "You can't make things right, Henry," she said. "You can't unring the bell. You can't take back what has already been done."Henry stepped forward, reaching out to touch her arm. Amelia jerked away from him, her jaw set stubbornly.Amelia left the kitchen, her heart pounding in her chest.

    Amelia hesitated for a moment before answering. "It was... nice. I mean, he's a good kisser," she said, feeling her face turn even redder.Perry laughed. "Well, that's something. Maybe you two will eventually fall in love," she said, teasingly.Amelia rolled her eyes, but deep down, she couldn't help but wonder if that was even a possibility.Amelia took a deep breath and looked into Perry's eyes. "There's something about Andrew," she began, her voice barely above a whisper, "that makes my heart beat fast whenever he touches me."Perry raised an eyebrow in surprise. "Really?" she asked, a mischievous grin on her face. "I never took you for the type to get all swoony over a guy."Amelia rolled her eyes but couldn't help the blush that crept up her cheeks. "I'm serious, Perry. I didn't even feel that way when I was with Henry."Perry's expression softened, and she reached over to place a hand on Amelia's arm. "Hey, it's okay," she said gently. "It's normal to feel that way. You're marri

She knew what was waiting for her: Andrew's stern face.She took a deep breath before opening the door to Andrew's room.

    The doctor stammered, realizing the gravity of his poorly phrased suggestion. "No... no, that's not what I meant," he attempted to clarify.Andrew stepped closer to the doctor, his eyes piercing through him. "Are you going to tell me how to spend my money?" he demanded.The doctor quickly backtracked, "No sir, it was just a suggestion from a professional."But Andrew was not swayed.
