Haze touched her head lovingly. Most women were dependent, and could only rely on someone more powerful to survive, but Renee was different. She was the one others relied on. She was stubborn and strong, but he hoped that she would one day give him the chance to protect her and take care of her.

After half an hour, the infusion was almost over. The second it ended, Renee rushed out of the bed speedily.

�Wait for me!� Haze howled and ran after her. The ICU wards were in a different block, and they had to walk for a while before reaching the floor Quinton was on.

Haze was right-even family members were not allowed to visit the ICU patients. They could only stand outside and look into the ward through the large glass panes.

�Quinton�� Renee saw Quinton lying motionless in bed, and felt her heart ache when she noticed the many tubes attached to his body and the thick bandages around his face.

�Although Quinton is still in a coma, there�s good news. His face recovery surgery is successful, and if he wakes up, he�ll be a whole new person,� Haze said enthusiastically.

Renee shook her head, her eyes teary. �That doesn�t matter anymore� I just want him to wake up safely.�

After this incident, Renee had realized that one�s appearance didn�t mean anything. Being beautiful or ugly made no difference, as long as they were healthy.

�Don�t be so pessimistic. If the doctors say that he�ll recover, then he will,� Haze comforted her. Others always flattered him given his identity and status, so it was rare to see him console others. Doing this much had already exhausted him, and if she continued mulling over it, he would become depressed.

Renee took a deep breath and wiped away her tears before she forced a smile onto her face.

�Don�t worry, I�ll be fine. I�m stronger than you think, so you don�t have to rack your brain to figure out how to console me. I know it doesn�t come naturally to you, so I�ll try to be more optimistic.�

�Well, I guess you found me out�� Haze good at consoling people. "I�m afraid I�ll say the wrong thing and make you mad eventually.�

�No, you did great, and I appreciate that� Thank you for caring I�m sure Quinton will get better if he treats him.�

�Umm� As someone who is trying to court you, have I progressed in winning your heart?� Haze swallowed and waited anxiously for her answer.

�You can�t stay serious for too long, can you?

�Don�t mind me, just answer honestly. I�m stronger than you think.� Haze looked at Renee imploringly, desperate to know the answer.

Renee knew that she could not fool him given how serious he for a long time.

�Er� Three percent. Yeah, three percent.�

Haze�s eyes brightened.

�Three percent? I thought you�d give me a negative score, but it looks like my hard work is finally paying off. I�ll get a hundred percent as long as I keep working hard, I don�t care how long it takes. Where there�s a will, there�s a way!�

�You� You�re so weird. It�s just three percent. Aren�t you mad? Why didn�t you say I was ungrateful?� Renee didn�t want to give him hope, so she was about to say zero.

However, if she did that, he might not believe her, so she gave him a low number instead to make him give up. Normal people would understand the implication when they heard that number, and might even feel humiliated, but Haze looked surprisingly smug.

�Silly, three percent is very high for me. You used to beat me up every time I expressed my admiration for you in the past, but this time, you didn�t hit me, and even gave me a score of three percent. It proves that I have a chance, so why would I be mad? I should be celebrating!�

Renee was speechless. She didn�t know what was so good about her that made him so obsessed with her. As expected of people who wrote codes-as long as they had their minds set on a type of software, they would keep on running it even if there were a lot of bugs. They were indeed crazy.

�Umm� Since I managed to get three percent, can I ask for a small reward?� JrNovels.com
