Shuri's expression turned serious as she asked, "Why are you here, Dr. Sung?"
Sigmund offered a reassuring smile, though it didn't quite reach his eyes.
"I came to check on you, Dr. Lee. I found you unconscious and wanted to bring you to the hospital, but your fiancé intervened and took you away.
I wanted to make sure you were feeling alright and to see how your injury was healing. I also realized that I might have caused some misunderstanding with Mr. Kingston, so I'm here to apologize as well."
Shuri frowned slightly, trying to discern if Sigmund was being truthful.
Despite his words, she didn't feel he was genuine, but she couldn't openly accuse him.
"Thank you for your concern, Dr. Sung," she replied politely.
Karlene, still puzzled by the exchange, asked, "Who is he, Sis?"
Sigmund stepped forward, extending his hand towards Karlene.
"I'm Dr. Sigmund Sung. It's a pleasure to meet you," he said smoothly.
Karlene hesitated for a moment before shaking his hand.
