Little did he know, what he thought was success was the complete opposite! And the biggest contributor to this blunder was his assistant!Everyone was busy carrying the luggages, while Jaybie and Lune seemed a little excited and chattered.Sophia seemed quite disappointed. "Once you leave, my house will be too quiet. Lindy is always working outside, and I am the only old woman left. How boring!"As she spoke, an idea came to her. She looked at Myles, who was basking in the sun at the yard. "Perhaps, Mr. Turner, you could still live at my place? We are the same age, we will always have something to talk about.""That's not so nice, I’ve troubled you enough—""No trouble, no trouble at all, you can tell me all about those books when you’re free, I think it's very interesting!" Sophia quickly waved her hand.Myles looked at Sonnet, who then smiled. "Dad, it's up to you, you can live wherever you want."Myles seemed to be hesitant. His gaze bounced between Sonnet and Sophia.He nev
Sonnet raised her eyebrows unexpectedly.The doctor asked again, "Haven't you noticed this occurrence recently?"Sonnet nodded quickly. "I felt the same too. I felt that his speech seems to be much more logical than before, and he is more mature when handling things."She did not notice this before, but it became more apparent after Lindy reminded her.She looked at the doctor hopefully. "Doctor, does this mean that Maxwell's condition may get better progressively?"The doctor smiled and nodded. "I think this is probably a miracle. There are many possibilities for the human brain. At present, his brain function is indeed much better than before. Previously, his IQ was equivalent to that of a six or seven-year-old child. Right now, his IQ would be about ten years old. In our opinion, his condition would continue to improve.""That means, maybe one day he will become a normal person?""It's hard to say, maybe that day will come, or maybe the progress will cease. But, no matter wha
On this day, Sonnet went new year shopping. She was done right around when Maxwell got off work, so she asked Lewis to drive to Brooks Corporation to pick him up to go home together.The car was parked downstairs at the Brooks Tower. Sonnet called Maxwell, after the call connected, there was a noisy voice on the other side of the phone."Maxwell?" Sonnet asked in surprise.Maxwell's cries were heard. "Wifey...""What's wrong?" Sonnet's face suddenly darkened."Uncle Welson came and scolded me.""Which floor is your office on?""The twelfth floor.""Okay, you wait, I'll go up!" Sonnet finished and opened the door to get out of the car.At the entrance of Brooks Tower, there was a turnstile barrier gate that needed card access. Sonnet could not get in, so she went straight to the security guard. "Please open the gate for me, I need to go up to pick up the Second Young Master of the Brooks, he seemed to have an emergency on the 12th floor. Delaying us would mean delaying the comp
Welson shot her a nasty glare. "How is that an insult? He is a fool, this is an indisputable fact!""Who said he is a fool? If he is a fool, can he work in the audit department of Brooks Corporation?" Sonnet immediately retorted.In the past, she could not tolerate others calling Maxwell a fool. Now that Maxwell's intelligence had improved, she could never accept others saying that about Maxwell."It was Marcus who arranged it!" Welson rolled his eyes.Immediately, Sonnet's arguments followed. "Yes, it was Marcus' arrangement. But if he is really incapable of this job, why would the senior management of Brooks Corporation allow him to work in that position? Do you think the senior management, as well as Uncle Will and Uncle Winston, were also stupid?"Will Brooks was now the leader of the Bai Group, and Maxwell worked in the audit department, so the former must have known about it.Welson choked on Sonnet's words and did not answer.Sonnet sneered and continued. "Furthermore, ev
Welson's glare turned into rage. "Who are you calling a beast?! Who?!"Sonnet was relaxed. "Whoever barks is a beast. Let's see, I wonder who is barking now?"The onlookers outside sniggered discreetly:"This Second Young Miss is amazing, she dared to even provoke Third Master Brooks!""She’s already burned bridges with him, so she’s not afraid of offending him. But then again, if I see my husband being scolded like this, I won't be able to stand it either!""What she said was reasonable. Although Second Young Master is usually verbally slow, his business ability is unrivaled. His brain is like a computer. None of us can compare!""You, you, you! You, b*stard!" Welson stammered angrily.Sonnet delighted as the man stuttered, she leisurely spoke again. "Uncle Welson, you keep coming here to find fault with Maxwell. Please don’t think Maxwell is easily bullied. Beware the fury of a patient man. When my Maxwell gets really angry, he can knock you down with just one punch. If you ha
Suddenly, Welson felt his body give way.The car braked suddenly, and both he and the woman jerked forward.Welson immediately yelled at the driver in front. "Drive your car well. Don’t be nosy about what you shouldn't!"The distance was not too far yet it was pure torment for the driver. When he finally stopped at the apartment building, the driver immediately opened the door, got out of the car, and walked away.The car remained in place.The man and woman in the backseat were covered in sweat and sat panting.Welson let out a sigh of satisfaction. "Being with me is much better than being with that kid.""Yeah, I fell in love with you at the second master's birthday party that day. But everyone knows that I’m the third young master’s girlfriend, so I can't do anything about it. Oh, what a torment my heart was in at that time..." Jessie purred.After she was outed for academic misconduct, she was chewed out by her colleagues in the hospital. This was due to her being too arrog
Sonnet turned her head and saw that the car hit them from behind."Young Miss, hold on tight. I'm going to speed up to get rid of them!" Lewis' voice sank.Sonnet nodded and grabbed the top handle tightly.Lewis rammed the accelerator to increase the speed and slipped through the gap between two cars.He had excellent driving skills. He drove at a high speed and overtook several cars in various ways, quickly throwing the car behind him out of sight."Okay, slow down a little bit now," Sonnet told him with a sigh of relief.Lewis responded and proceeded to slow down, then he gasped. "Huh?""What's wrong?" Sonnet asked."The brakes… Why…"Before he could finish, a large truck suddenly overtook him from the side."Ah, slow down and brake!" Sonnet exclaimed.Lewis slammed on the brakes while steering the car wildly. Then, the car was in mid-air!For a while, Sonnet felt dizzy, then the airbag popped out, wedging her tightly between the seat and the airbag.In the midst of it,
"I… Something happened to me, and I won't be able to make it. How is Izzy?""Huh? What's the matter? I called to tell you that you didn’t have to come if you haven’t set out. Izzy is fine now. You go about your business first. Is everything alright?" Tami was full of concern.Sonnet shook her head feebly. "I'm fine, but my friend may be in trouble..."…After Maxwell finished his examination at Westfield Hospital, he was going to take the two children to the skating rink."Let's give Mom a call. She’ll be upset if she knows we went out on our own to have fun." Lune was uneasy.They agreed to go skating together before. Today was a great opportunity for Jaybie and Lune to take the subway with him.Maxwell smiled. Of course, he would not hide it from his wifey. He even thought about having lunch with her and the children.He called Sonnet. The phone rang several times before she answered. Sonnet's voice seemed weak. "Maxwell, have you finished your check-up?"Maxwell's heart ski
