StarNovelChapter 1082:
“Thank you, doctor,” Carrie said awkwardly, thanking the doctor before following Kristopher toward the dressing
area.
She reached the door first, peeked inside, and gave a quick nod. “No one’s in there. Go ahead. I'll wait right
here. Call if you need anything.”
“Alright.” Kristopher met her eyes briefly, then stepped inside and shut the door behind him.
A minute later, his voice cthrough from inside. “I can’t get this necklace off. Can you givea hand?”
Carrie's brows drew together. Necklace? He never used to wear one. But she didn’t ask. Whatever he wore now

Carrie gave an exasperated sigh, rolling her eyes. “You could've changed first and cout to findlater. This
is still a hospital, you know. Standing around undressed in the hallway—aren’t you embarrassed someone might

Kristopher nodded, seemingly thoughtful. “You're right.”
Just as she relaxed, thinking he'd finally go back in, his hand shot out. He caught her wrist and, in one swift
motion, tugged her into the dressing room with him, closing the door behind them.
The space was tiny—meant for one at best. Now, with both of them inside, every breath felt amplified.
