Isabella hurriedly explained, "I saw him at the Parker's old residence last time."Nathan couldn't help but glance at her, surprised that she didn't mention the scene in the hospital corridor.Back in the car, Isabella looked through the window at the two people standing face to face at the entrance. She couldn't help but admit that the scene of the two men together was very pleasing to the eye. One was handsome and charming, while the other was elegant and refined, attracting the attention of passing female patients and nurses."I heard that William came?""Yes. Kathy's legs have healed, and my mom asked me to pick her up and bring her back for the evening family banquet.""What about Ms. Watson?""She will be there too.""It's going to be fun."Nathan had a look of anticipation, as if he was about to watch a show."You guys just..." Joseph trailed off.He talked to Nathan, but his gaze remained fixed on Isabella in the car.Nathan pushed him and adjusted his glasses, then chuckled a

Katrina saw her trick work and immediately let go of Luke, proudly grabbing her mother's arm and following inside.Luke, with a calm expression on his face, walked up to Isabella and whispered, "Mrs. Parker..."Isabella shook her head gently and said, "It's okay. Let's go in too."The Parker's place, unlike Green Bay, had a completely different layout. It resembled the courtyards of ancient wealthy households. The antique pavilions and towers were clean and elegant.Joseph carried Katherine across the front porch and arrived at the back parlor.In the hall, William was sitting in the main seat. When he saw someone coming in, he raised his eyes and looked. He first noticed Isabella, who was standing at the back of the crowd.He hurriedly stood up and strode toward Isabella. With a smile on his face, he said, "Ha, little girl, we meet again? Do you remember me?"Isabella was initially taken aback, but then recognized the old man from the afternoon and said with some surprise, "Is it you

"Ah, yes...""Well, here's the thing. Joe and Kathy's wedding is on the 8th of next month. If you're willing, you can come to the wedding... Oh, I just remembered, Kathy still needs a bridesmaid. Ms. Watson is still single, right? That works out perfectly..." Charlotte said."Mom!" Joseph had already frowned.They had long known about Isabella and his engagement. His mother said it on purpose.Katrina chimed in, "Humph, a pumpkin from a small family dares to dream of marrying my brother, without even considering her own status!"She tried every possible way to get close to Joe, and now she knows Grandpa too. Who knows what hidden agenda she might have!" Katrina's words became increasingly offensive."Katrina!"Seeing her brother's increasingly unpleasant expression, Katrina immediately shut up and pretended to eat.Under the table, Isabella's anxious hand tightly clutched the hem of her clothes, unsure of what to do. Suddenly, William slammed his fork onto the table and exclaimed angr

"What?"Nathan said calmly, "Nothing. Just be careful not to let the wound touch water. It will scab over in a couple of days."Isabella doubted whether Nathan was a Virgo or not. Not only did he handle the wound cleanly and neatly, but he even wrapped the bandage meticulously.They were not familiar with each other to begin with, and if it weren't for Joseph, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they were strangers. Therefore, after the wound was bandaged, there was no need for much small talk, and Isabella bid farewell and left.When Isabella went back to Green Bay, Ruth immediately noticed the bandage on her hand."Oh my, what happened, Bella? Didn't you say you were going to the Parker's place for dinner? How did you hurt your hand? Is it serious? Does it hurt? Let me take a look!" Ruth grabbed her hand, with a worried expression on her face.Isabella comforted Ruth warmly, "It's okay, Ruth. It was just an accident. Just a small cut. I've already applied iodine to disinfect

Isabella felt for the first time the pain and helplessness of the man.Thinking of the moment when he protected her at the Parker's place, Isabella felt an impulse from somewhere and gently kissed his cold lips.He was first startled, but as soon as he realized what was happening, he grabbed her and deepened the previous kiss.No matter how intense the kiss was, he always carefully protected her hand, holding it in his palm like a precious treasure.After a long while, he finally let go of her, and both of them started breathing heavily."Don't worry. I've got everything under control."Joseph watched her go, quietly leaving only after all the lights in the room upstairs had gone out.For the next two days, Isabella did not see Joseph. He only called back and said that his mother was fine. Just as Isabella had suspected, it was a case of anger-induced fainting, and Charlotte just needed some rest to recover. He assured her to stay calm.She was somewhat worried, so she secretly called

Jasmine, realizing her slip of the tongue, quickly took hold of his arm and coquettishly said, "Of course, except for Bruno."Seeing Oliver with a nameless brand, looking more like a scholar, Jasmine concluded that he was not from an upper-class family and that there was nothing to lose if she offended him.Then, in a sarcastic tone, she said, "Isabella, your taste is really poor this time. What do you see in a man who can't even afford a high-end restaurant?""Are you finished talking?" Isabella struggled to suppress her anger."Miss, shouldn't you be asking yourself that question?" Oliver's words were gentle yet sharp."You!" Jasmine was left speechless by the retort, shaking Bruno's arm and pouting. "Bruno, they bullied me. Help me teach them a lesson...""Bruno, it seems like the lesson you learned last time wasn't enough." Isabella's gaze was as cold as ice."What do you mean by saying this? Bruno, what lesson?" Jasmine became anxious, afraid that the two might have some connecti

Sure enough, it was Jasmine. Isabella had never understood how Katherine had Ruth's clothes photos before, but now everything made sense."I knew you would say that," Isabella didn't expect Katherine to be charged with these accusations in the first place, "but if Joseph knew that your legs had sensation, guess how he would react?"Katherine's heart skipped a beat, "What did you say?!" How could she know?They had only met a few times, and Katherine believed she had concealed herself well, without revealing any flaws."You did indeed disguise yourself very well, with hardly any flaws. That day, you intentionally burned yourself to avoid letting me treat you, afraid of being exposed. So even when you were burned, you remained calm and silent. By the way, I admire your endurance. But you overlooked the fact that it is impossible to fake the physiological reactions of the human body. You can control yourself from making any sound through endurance, but you cannot control sweating..."Kat

Joseph saw the long-lost face, his eyes instantly softened, and he reached out his arms and embraced Isabella.He buried his head on Isabella's shoulder and softly said, "I miss you so much."Five words struck Isabella's heart all at once. She slowly reached out and wrapped her arms around his waist, saying, "Me too.""My mom is fine now, she has been discharged from the hospital, and she has promised not to interfere in my marriage for the time being.""Really?" Isabella was not surprised."It was only after Kathy found her and talked to her that she changed her mind, but..."Isabella suddenly became nervous."It's just that our engagement announcement could only be made a month later."It also meant that their relationship could not be publicly announced within this month, most likely Katherine's idea.Isabella let out a sigh of relief and raised her hand to rub the stray hairs at the back of his head."It's okay."There was no difference to her whether it was one day earlier or one

Isabella arrived at the Arnot's house.She could hardly contain her excitement as she spoke, "Did he really say that?"Even Oliver, who always spoke softly and gently, was somewhat agitated at this moment."Yes, he took the initiative to have the caregiver ask me who was playing the piano that day, and he said he wanted to meet you."Isabella's eyes sparkled as she thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Arnot, just to be safe, I think I should go in alone.""Alright, Cedric and I will be in the living room. Call us if you need anything.""Okay."The door was slightly ajar. Isabella knocked gently, but there was no response from inside.She tried to push open a crack and peered in through it. It was still the same dim light, creepy and terrifying."Who?"Isabella was startled by the sudden noise, hastily pointing at the piano that had been moved to the door, and then at herself, implying that she was the one who had played it last time."Do you also like

Isabella and Dylan naturally didn't know what happened at the nurse's station.First, they arrived at the Dean's office on the third floor. The Dean asked Dylan to intern with Isabella in the emergency department since they two knew each other.Sheldon reacted indifferently to Dylan's arrival. After all, there were many interns in the department every year, most of whom would leave after a while, so there was nothing to fuss about.Sarah was dissatisfied with the department having new people for two consecutive days. But she had been avoiding Isabella's gaze since yesterday. Seeing that Dylan was brought by Isabella, Sarah didn't say anything.Only Lydia, who was sitting next to Isabella, had been sneaking glances at Dylan from the moment he walked in.She didn't even notice that Dylan came to greet her.Isabella reminded her, and only then did she bite her lip and blushingly wave at him.After Dylan left, she immediately leaned in and whispered into Isabella's

Jasmine was about to go upstairs, "I'll go take a look!"Amanda grabbed her with a look of anticipation on her face, "Don't go. Isabella might anger your father again. Let it go. It would be great if your father could teach her a lesson..."At that time, the study on the second floor was littered with shards of glass, and Isabella's smooth instep was covered in tea water. Fortunately, the tea was not very hot.But even so, her delicate skin quickly turned red.Isabella silently stared ahead, her face expressionless.George, sitting behind the table, was panting heavily, his chest heaving."Say it again!""I want the key to the backyard iron gate," Isabella repeated calmly.George suppressed his anger, "Didn't I say that no one but me could enter the backyard!""Why?"With another loud smack, George slammed his hand on the table, "No reason! I call the shots here!"Isabella remained composed, "There are my mother's relics inside. I want to go..."G

Isabella hesitated for a moment and gently held his fingers.Perhaps due to his youthful vigor, even Dylan's fingers were warm. In contrast, Isabella's hand was as cold as ice.Isabella looked up and met Dylan's gaze. She felt embarrassed and quickly withdrew her hand."Alright, alright, everyone, take a seat," Amanda called out.At the dinner table, George was talking about his study trip to Canada, while Amanda and Jasmine occasionally chimed in with hearty laughter. The three looked like a happy family.In contrast, Isabella on the side seemed like an outsider.Dylan, sitting across from her, had been fixing his intense gaze on her. However, Isabella focused on her meal and failed to meet his eyes."Well, I started working at Sacred Heart Hospital..." Isabella slowly said, taking advantage of George's pause."What? That bitch got a job, and at the best hospital in the city, no less!" Amanda wondered while grinding her teeth in resentment. She stared at her

In the evening, as soon as Isabella entered the door, she saw Amanda and Jasmine sitting on the sofa and chatting.Amanda, who was in high spirits, immediately changed her expression when she saw Isabella come in."You're back? I thought you would never step through this door again."When she received the message from Frank, Isabella was initially hesitant. But then she thought that Amanda intended to drive her out of the Watson family. If she didn't come back, it would be exactly what Amanda wanted.So, she headed straight to the Watson's place after she got off work.Isabella sat down and said, "This is my home. Why can't I come back?""Oh, it's only been a few days, and you've become so tough? Don't think that just because you have someone backing you up, I would be afraid of you.""I can forget about what you did to Ruth for now, but if you dare to touch her again in the future, I will not let you go."Isabella sternly warned.She wouldn't allow anyone

Sarah glanced at her and mocked, "Do you think you can handle it? Treating illnesses isn't child's play. Traditional medicine is nothing more than a trick to fool the layman. What if something goes wrong later? If you worsen her condition, can you bear that responsibility?"Sarah's words worked. Sheldon looked serious.Isabella pondered and then said sincerely, "If anything goes wrong, I'll take responsibility. It won't affect the department or the hospital. Dr. Wilson, let me give it a try."Thinking that the talent valued by the board of directors should not be flakey, Sheldon nodded.Isabella took out a special tool from the drawer and began to treat the little girl skillfully and intently.About two or three minutes later, she felt the little girl's forehead. It didn't seem so hot. She then nodded to Lydia, who was standing behind her with a new thermometer.Sarah was waiting to see Isabella's failure, but the smug look on her face gradually disappeared as she

Isabella finally figured out the whole story.One of the doctors who had attended the interview that day had also passed by the intersection where William had collapsed. However, in a rush for the interview, he had merely glanced at William on the ground before moving on.How could someone who valued fame and wealth over life be worthy of becoming a doctor? Naturally, he could not work at Sacred Heart Hospital, which valued medical skills and ethics above all else.Moreover, William was the real examiner. Therefore, after learning about Isabella's performance, the board decided to hire the compassionate Isabella."Did someone in the hospital say something unpleasant? It's okay, Bella. I'll have the HR department issue another announcement to clear your name. If you have to blame someone, blame me. I wanted to surprise you, but it backfired. I didn't think it through. Don't blame Joe!"Only then did Isabella smile, "It's okay, William."Knowing that the elderly usua

"Really? No interview? And she got the job? Since when did Sacred Heart Hospital have such a precedent?" the other one asked."Since now. You don't know, the Parker Group is the largest shareholder of Sacred Heart Hospital. It's just a matter of a word if they want the hospital to hire someone!""So, you mean she got the job through the back door, and it was the back door of the Parker Group? Tsk, tsk...""Exactly. I heard she's really beautiful, like a movie star. I wouldn't be surprised if there was some sort of unspoken rules situation going on, haha!""It must be..."The unabashed mockery from the two people stung Isabella's heart. She didn't even know when she had left the restroom."The Parker Group is a shareholder of Sacred Heart Hospital...""Unspoken rules..."Until Richard stood in front of her, their words were still echoing in her mind.So it was Joseph who got her into Sacred Heart Hospital. No wonder he was so calm after receiving the messag

After a simple lunch, Isabella informed Ruth and then took a cab to Sacred Heart Hospital.Her name, phone number, and photo were indeed on the list.The head of the Human Resources department told her that it was a decision from above and that she was only responsible for processing it. And then she kept urging Isabella to complete the onboarding procedures as soon as possible.Coming out of the HR department, Isabella saw Richard striding towards her."I didn't disturb you, did I?" Isabella asked uneasily, looking at Richard who was slightly sweating due to his hurried walk.Richard wiped the sweat off his forehead and chuckled, "No, no, I'm not busy right now."Upon hearing that Isabella was coming to complete her onboarding process, he, who had just come off the operating table, rushed over without even taking a sip of water.Isabella hesitated to voice her question. After hearing it, Richard scratched his head and honestly said, "Well, I'm not quite sure ei
