Hayden said with a smile, "The hospital has an important operation that I need to be there for. I won’t have time to grab a drink. We can meet when we have the time.""Okay, you should head off to work."Hayden nodded and led his assistant forward.Sonnet watched him leave and saw a group of doctors walking toward Hayden from a distance. After they met up with him, they entered the lobby on the first floor of the hospital through the side door.Sonnet noticed that the group of doctors was the same group that had just been with Jessie.On the way back, Sonnet casually checked her phone and saw the news about Westfield Hospital.There was an extremely difficult operation happening at Westfield Hospital, which was jointly conducted by several top experts in the profession. The whole process was broadcasted live, and reporters would report about the surgery in real time.As the president of Westfield Hospital, it made sense for Hayden to make an appearance in such an important opera
"Did your parents send you to the fat pig's room that night?" Hayden asked.Jessie bit her lip and did not answer.Hayden patted her on the shoulder and said, "You’re doing great. Just keep being yourself."Jessie looked up at him with tears in her eyes. "Mr. Gunn..."She jumped into his arms but quickly withdrew herself. "Sorry, Mr. Gunn, I was a little emotional and acted abruptly."Hayden took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her. "It's okay. A man's shoulders are meant to be laid on by women.""Thank you..." Jessie took the handkerchief and acted shy.She thought that her current appearance would make any man feel protective of her."You're welcome." Hayden was about to leave.Jessie hurriedly called out to him, "Mr. Gunn, uh... I never had a chance to return the dress that Miss Lili lent me the last time… How about I pass it to you? "Hayden frowned, waved his hands, and said, "No need, just throw it away."After he said that, he quickened his pace.
"I need your help to find out more about him and his recent schedule! I'm so busy working in the hospital. I don’t have time to find out about these things!"Louise laughed and replied, "Leave this to me. I promise to help you find out everything about him."Louise lived up to expectations. After a few days, she sent Jessie a message: [I found out that the National Medical Summit will be held at the hot spring resort on the outskirts of Harbor City this weekend and Mr. Gunn will be attending.][Hot spring resort?][Yes, one of my friends works there, so I’m certain about it. I’ve asked around, and although the National Medical Summit is being held, the resort still welcomes tourists. It's just that there are limited slots. I’ll ask my friend to get us two bookings. I'll go with you when it's time to pretend that we’re on vacation," Louise said thoughtfully."Okay, sounds good!" Jessie said excitedly.After she hung up the call, she could no longer focus on work. All she could thi
On Saturday morning, Sonnet and Maxwell happily drove out of the city with the two children.The hot spring resort was located in the mountains of United City, a subsidiary of Harbor City. Although it was in the United City, this project was under the jurisdiction of the city and was built in collaboration with Harbor City’s government and developers. The goal was to create a landmark resort that attracted tourists from all over the country.The resort was large in scale and well-equipped. It was rated as a national scenic spot. Therefore, there were usually many tourists, especially in this cold winter season when soaking in hot springs became the best travel choice.After driving for about an hour and a half, they arrived at the hot spring resort. Logan had already sent the e-tickets to Sonnet’s phone, so they were able to enter with their tickets. Their accommodation was a stand-alone small villa with two floors and a hot spring in the house. There was also a large courtyard wi
Sonnet asked Logan, “Did you bring Shay’s swimsuit?”“Oh, I did. It’s in the car,” he replied as he turned to leave. Sonnet peeked outside and saw that his car was parked in the spot next to theirs. They must be staying next door.When Lune came down with the swimsuit, Logan returned with Shay’s swimsuit in hand.“Okay, let’s go play. Mr. Scott, do you want to come with us?”Logan originally wanted to say ‘yes,’ but then he saw Maxwell’s death stare, so he quickly changed his mind. “I think I’ll just lie down for a bit. You guys go ahead.”Sonnet smiled and said, “Okay, I’ll call you later!” The group walked out together. Sonnet and Maxwell took the children to the hot spring pool, while Logan went to the villa next door. He stood at the door and did not rush in. He muttered, “He’s such a jealous monster. He just doesn’t want me to look at his wife in a swimsuit! As if I’m interested! Even if I’m not there, does that mean no one else will be?”True enough, no one else was t
“It turned out that not long after we entered, the resort had a fun activity where they separated the men and women into different pools. The male guests went to one side, while the female guests went to the other side. Coupons are distributed on both sides, and each coupon contains a big discount, so the people voluntarily separated.” Maxwell nodded as he listened. The resort’s manager had some common sense and did not forcibly kick out the male guests. It would have affected the resort’s reputation.Sonnet pouted. “What a pity.”“What’s a pity?” Maxwell asked immediately.“We came too early. Otherwise, we could’ve gotten coupons as well.”Maxwell immediately pouted his lips.His dear wife preferred coupons over him!Jaybie and Lune were more considerate and said, “We don’t want the coupons. If we had taken them, we couldn’t have played with Uncle anymore. It’s boring to play with Mom, but playing with Uncle is fun!”Shay chimed in, “Play with Uncle, play with Uncle!”Sonnet
Jessie had never met Jaybie and Lune before. Just now, when the two children entered the snack shop, they did not come in together with Sonnet. Hence, she did not know that they were Sonnet’s children.As she spoke, she angrily went to pull Lune, but before her hand could touch Lune, Lune fell to the ground and cried out loudly.Sonnet immediately wanted to go carry Lune but saw Jaybie giving her a signal.She hesitated and stopped.Jaybie walked forward, looked at Jessie with his head held high, and said, “Miss, my sister didn’t mean to bump into you, and she has already sincerely apologized to you. How can you hit her?”His voice was clear and loud, and he immediately attracted the attention of the other customers in the snack shop.Lune sat on the ground, crying so bitterly.When the other customers saw this cute little girl being bullied by an adult, they immediately spoke out in her defense, saying, “Tsk tsk, she’s such a pretty girl, but why is she bullying a child?”Jess
Jessie touched her face and asked Louise, “Has my makeup come off?”“No, it looks great!” Louise replied.Then, two more people approached from behind and turned to look at Jessie while laughing.Jessie became annoyed and asked them, “What are you laughing at?”One of them pointed to the back of their companion and said, “Miss, look at your back.”Louise immediately looked at Jessie’s back and tore a sticker off her body.It was a cartoon sticker with a pig on it and the words ‘I’m a fat pig’ underneath.Upon seeing the sticker, Jessie’s face turned purple with anger as she stomped her foot. “It must be that brat!”Louise wanted to laugh as well but did not dare to, so she could only force herself to endure it. She persuaded Jessie, “Forget it, don’t bother with that child. Don’t you have more important things to do? I think Mr. Gunn’s meeting is about to end. Let’s hurry up and go!”At the mention of the important matter, Jessie barely suppressed her emotions and walked quick
