Amanda Smith was hospitalized for three days, and by the second day, she had actually recovered, but Evan Willow forcefully kept her for another day.
During these three days, Samuel Johnson indeed did not show up even once.
Amanda could not quite say whether she was disappointed or what, it was just a feeling of: Ah, as expected. That person had visited her on the first day on a whim, after all.
With mental preparation, she also did not experience the letdown that comes with unmet expectations.
On the day of discharge, Evan Willow specially drove over to pick her up; he had stayed with her throughout these three days, and he took care of all the hospital discharge procedures and other paperwork on her behalf.
Sitting in the car, Amanda looked at the man next to her, feeling a mix of wry amusement in her heart.
