" Gabriel laughed in anger . He leaned down , braced his hands on the couch , and trapped her beneath him .

" Her eyes shone with glaring mockery . " Only a blind man like you can't tell , Gabriel .

" The air around them seemed to freeze , and the pressure around Gabriel seemed to plunge sharply .

Looking at the face she'd loved for two years , she uttered word by word , " I said ... you're blind .

" Gabriel's grip tightened further , and Emily's lips curled up in a faint , scornful smile as she sneered . " Does only Amelia's life matter to you ? Are the rest of us no better than ants ? " Upon seeing a tear slide unexpectedly from the corner of her eye , his chest tightened , and his hand instinctively loosened its grip on her . The sight of her pale face softened his tone .

For a moment , the room plunged into a dead silence before Emily's phone rang sharply from her pocket , shattering the suffocating stalemate .

The patient is severely bleeding , his blood pressure is dropping , and he's gone into shock ! " You're the only one who can operate . Please come now ! " Emily's face drained of color . After hanging up , she grabbed her coat and turned around to bolt out the door when Gabriel instinctively moved to block her way . " Move ! " she shouted . Her last thread of composure snapped , and her eyes were red from fury . " Can't you tell what's important , Gabriel ?

A life is waiting for me ! " If you want to settle scores for Amelia , I'll face you all you want when I'm done saving the patient ! " She tried to push past him , but he caught her wrist and stared at her breaking apart before him . Finally , he pressed his lips together and said , " I'll take you there . " When they arrived , Emily leaped from the car and rushed straight into the operating room . Four hours later , the doors opened again . She walked out , dragging her exhausted body , and removing her mask revealed a face drained of all color .

He's safe now . " The man was instantly overwhelmed with gratitude . " Thank you so much , doctor ! " He turned and yelled to the relatives who'd gathered , " He's fine now ! He's alive !

Do you think Dr. Sterling pushing me down the stairs might have left some lasting damage ? " Gabriel withdrew his gaze , and it shifted back to Amelia's pale face .

Guilt for her washed over him , drowning out the ripples Emily had stirred in him moments earlier . When they stopped in front of Emily , Amelia lifted her chin and smiled weakly . " Congratulations on the successful surgery , Dr. Sterling . I had no idea you had such remarkable skills . " She pressed a hand to her chest and frowned slightly . " Still ... I'm weak . I always feel short of breath and panicky . " You have such incredible medical skills , Dr. Sterling . If you're free ... do you mind nursing me back to health ? " Emily was slightly surprised .

Did that mean that Amelia wasn't pregnant and didn't have a miscarriage ?
