"Here—" Samuel came to Caitlin Snow's side and handed over the coffee with a smile.
Caitlin Snow turned around and looked at him, then suddenly leaned in and sniffed hard, and then her expression became visibly ugly.
"Did you take a shower?" Caitlin Snow asked coldly.
Samuel nodded indifferently and admitted it. He was already used to Caitlin's cold face.
They had been together for five years, breaking up and getting back together countless times, and they were already as familiar with each other as they could be.
He was very clear that in Caitlin's heart, his identity was only one, her man.
So she wouldn't care about Samuel's identity, wealth, or mysterious side like other women would. So when they usually got along, her attitude towards Samuel was no different from that of countless ordinary couples.
She would get angry when she should, and give him the cold shoulder when she should.
Of course, when they should be affectionate, they were naturally very affectionate!
Let's put it this way, Caitlin Snow was genuinely in love, otherwise she wouldn't have broken up again and again, and then gotten back together again and again.
Caitlin Snow snorted coldly and said confidently: "You usually shower at night, showering in the morning—humph, tell me, where were you ghosting around last night!"
Samuel 'honestly' said: "I went to a bar."
"And then?"
Caitlin Snow continued to press on with a cold face, but suddenly heard a loud gasp from behind her!
She was stunned for a moment, then turned around abruptly.
The boy on the hospital bed, covered in instruments and wires, sat up with a look of terror.
"Oh my God!"
Caitlin Snow and Cisco Ramon were startled, then quickly notified Dr. Harrison Wells, and gathered around.
"Where am I?"
"Pulse 120, pupils reacting to light, look at me, look at me!" Caitlin Snow professionally examined the boy.
"Relax, everything's alright, man, you're at Star Labs." Cisco Ramon patted his shoulder, soothing his agitated emotions.
"Star Labs? Who are you?" The boy calmed down, looking at him and asking.
"I'm Cisco Ramon, this is Caitlin Snow, and this is her boyfriend, Samuel." Cisco introduced them one by one.
"Ex-boyfriend." Caitlin Snow deliberately said.
Samuel shrugged: "Her ex-ex-boyfriend, ex-ex-ex-boyfriend, and ex-ex-ex-ex-boyfriend, are all me!"
"What happened, what's going on!" The boy shouted, confused and helpless.
Cisco Ramon: "You were struck by lightning, man!"
The boy was somewhat disbelieving, and subconsciously turned to look at the mirror beside him. In the mirror, he was shirtless, his six-pack abs very prominent.
"Lightning gave me -- abs --" he murmured.
Caitlin Snow: "Your muscles should have atrophied, but instead, they've been undergoing cellular regeneration in a chronic, unexplainable state."
"Come over here, sit down."
Cisco Ramon pulled the boy down to sit: "You were in a coma before."
"How long was I in a coma?"
"Nine months!"
Dr. Harrison Wells, sitting in his electric wheelchair, came in. When the boy looked at him, a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Welcome back, Mr. Allen, we have a lot to talk about."
After a while, Barry Allen put on the Star Labs logo hoodie that Cisco Ramon had found for him, and began talking with Dr. Harrison Wells.
"I can't believe I'm here, I've always wanted to meet you." Barry Allen sighed, knowing who Dr. Harrison Wells was and admiring him greatly.
In fact, he had even attended the press conference for the particle accelerator's activation ceremony.
Dr. Harrison Wells joked: "Really? You certainly went to great lengths for it."
Indeed, to come here, to meet him, he was directly struck by lightning and was in a coma for nine months.
"Star Labs hasn't been operational since the Federal Emergency Management Agency designated it a Level 4 hazardous area."
"Seventeen people died that night, and many more were injured, myself included." Dr. Harrison Wells glanced at his wheelchair.
Barry Allen sighed: "What happened?"
"Nine months ago, the particle accelerator began operating as planned. For the first forty-five minutes, I achieved my life's dream, but then there was an anomaly, the electron volts became immeasurable, and the giant ring beneath us suddenly exploded."
"The energy released by the explosion shot straight into the sky, forming a storm cloud."
Barry Allen realized: "That's the lightning bolt it released that struck me..."
"Exactly!"
"During your treatment, the hospital experienced multiple unexplained power outages. Each time was when your heart stopped, but that was actually a misdiagnosis, because your heart didn't stop, Barry."
"In fact, your heart was beating too fast for the electrocardiogram to record."
Dr. Harrison Wells paused, then continued with some self-deprecation: "Although my reputation in the local area isn't the best these days, Detective West and his daughter still allowed me to bring you here, where we can stabilize your condition."
"Iris?" Barry Allen asked excitedly.
"Yes, Iris, she came to see you often." Dr. Harrison Wells said with a smile.
Caitlin Snow chimed in: "She talked a lot."
"And she's very sexy." Cisco Ramon also added.
At his remark, both Samuel and Caitlin Snow instinctively curled their lips.
Because Iris frequently visited Barry Allen, they were quite familiar with her.
How to put it, in the Flash series, and even the entire Green Arrow Universe, she was the person Samuel disliked the most.
Her personality was that of a pure, utter saint!
The kind that's incredibly annoying!
So Samuel had always been quite cold towards her. He once said, 'The process of life, whether it's elegant music or simple food, I have to taste what it's like to make the journey worthwhile.'
However, he had absolutely no interest in Iris!
Man has no intention to harm the tiger, but the tiger has the intention to harm man.
Samuel didn't care for Iris, but Ares was a face-lover.
Samuel was young, handsome, rich, and a philanthropist with a very positive public image. Although there were occasional rumors, they weren't a big deal.
She had secretly asked Samuel out a few times, but Samuel had refused without hesitation.
Hmm, he was really disgusted!
Later, Caitlin Snow also saw her intentions, and naturally had no good feelings towards her either.
Of course, Iris's interest in Samuel didn't last long. She wasn't without shame, she knew Samuel wasn't interested, and he and Caitlin Snow were constantly on and off, so she gave up. She already had a boyfriend now.
He was a Police, and her Father's partner!
