"Didn't I already say in the morning that we can go back tomorrow?"Lana wondered if once a person got sick, it weakened all their senses. They had already booked their flight back to Dawsbury City for tomorrow afternoon. This decision had even been made after discussing it with Mandy. So, why was she asking the same question again?Mandy made an effort to hide her joy and spoke gently, "Oh, I guess my memory fails me when I'm sick.""It's okay, Mandy. As long as I'm here, you'll definitely be safe."Listening to Lana's comforting words, Mandy smiled and said, "Lana, my mouth has been feeling dry these past few days, and I can't eat much. "Could you go to a bigger supermarket and buy me some strawberries, oranges, and bananas? I want something to stimulate my appetite."Mandy hadn't been eating since she fell ill. So, when she expressed a desire to eat, Lana went to fulfill her request.It was natural to have food preferences, especially for someone who wanted to look healthy
Regardless of whether he would spend the rest of his life with Lana, Liam would not go back on his word. He would certainly help Lana find her family.When Violet walked in, she couldn't help but feel sad seeing Liam's lonely figure. "Liam, why are you smoking again?" Violet approached him. "I remember you didn't smoke as much as this."Liam quickly extinguished the cigarette and helped Violet sit on the balcony chair. "Why are you still awake, Grandma?"Violet looked full of concern. "Every time I think about you going back to that cutthroat place, I can't sleep."Liam reassured her, "Grandma, don't you trust me? Am I that easy to defeat?"Violet shook her head. "It's not that I don't trust you. I don't trust that place. I cherished something my whole life, and they took it away. I just can't bear to let you go back there.""Don't worry, Grandma. As soon as things are settled, I'll come back to be with you."Violet sighed, "I don't need you to accompany me. When you're there,
Seeing Joyce's sad expression, Bentley suddenly reached his hand out. He seemed to want to pat her shoulder for comfort. But in the next moment, he immediately withdrew his hand."Mandy is seriously ill now. Who knows if she can be cured? But once she passes away, Romelius will surely forget her completely."He added, "After all, so many years have passed, and you still have Ms. Rosa. Are you really worried that he won't come back to you?" Joyce shook her head repeatedly at the mention of Rosa. "I'm sorry. It's my fault for not teaching her properly. She shouldn't have said those things to you. After all, you are her—"Joyce's words were cut short when Bentley sternly interrupted her, "Nonsense. Ms. Rosa is just a child. Why should I take her words to heart? It's you who should be more cautious in a family like this. Don't expose any of your weaknesses to others."If it were any other time, a servant who dared to speak to Joyce like this would be reprimanded. But Bentley, surpris
"Great-Grandma, how could you tell—" Joyce interrupted Rosa just as she was about to launch into a long rant. "Rosa, why are you still standing there? You should go upstairs now and congratulate Aunt Marion!" Joyce quickly dragged Rosa away. Meanwhile, Priscilla did not seem to notice Joyce and Rosa's awkward interaction. After all, she was busy attending to other guests. Joyce managed to take Rosa to a quiet corner of the house. Before she could say anything, Rosa had started complaining. "Mom, why did you drag me here? I can't believe that old hag! She's asking if I'd be happy getting a younger brother. I should give her a good lecture to bring her to her senses!" Then, Rosa tried to head back into the living room, but Joyce caught her wrist just in time. "Have you lost your mind? The old hag is feeling extremely pleased and excited because of the news. She'll kick you out of the house this instant if you try to say anything bad about it!"Rosa was momentarily stunned.
"Look! She's getting shy because of what we said." "You don't have to feel shy, Joyce. Both you and Romelius are still young. There's nothing strange about you two having another child." "Exactly! Now that Marion has a baby, you and Romelius should work on having a baby of your own too." The others were chatting away happily while Joyce could not help but feel bitter. Eventually, all the guests returned home. Then, Marion and Devon started getting ready to leave for the villa. Devon had stuck to Marion's side the entire evening. Since Marion preferred staying at the villa, Devon went along with her decision. He was willing to do anything to make Marion feel happy and cherished. "It's getting late, and it's raining outside. It'll be hard for you to drive back in these road conditions. Why don't you two stay for the night and leave in the morning instead?" Usually, Priscilla would not try to interfere with the couple's decisions. However, it was different now. Priscilla
Devon seemed a bit confused. "Why do you want me to call her?" He had met Lana before. However, the only impression Devon had of her was that she was a pretty lady. He could not fathom why Marion was asking for Lana out of nowhere. "Devon, Lana is the young doctor that I've talked about! You need to call her now. We might still have a chance to save our child!" Even though Devon had his fair share of shocking and unique experiences in life, Marion's words still gave him quite a shock. He could hardly believe her words since Lana was very young. This time, Priscilla kept her composure. She quickly patted Devon's back and prompted, "What are you waiting for? Call the girl now! We should hold onto any chance that could help save your child." Devon came to his senses and hurried out of the ward to phone Lana. Meanwhile, Joyce stood at the side and snickered inwardly. She did not believe that Lana could possess the skills of a proficient doctor. After all, no matter how mu
The Quinns came to realize what was happening after hearing Lana's words. Marion was enraged as she thought about what Joyce was trying to do to her child. "So, that's your true intention? No wonder your daughter wants to bid my child farewell when he is still with us!"Joyce, you know better than anyone else how well I've treated you and Rosa all these years. Yet, this is how you repay my kindness? I won't forgive you if something bad happens to my child this time!" Priscilla came from a well-known, prestigious family. She thought that incidents like this would not happen in the Quinn family's household under her watch. She didn't expect Joyce, who seemed to treat everyone kindly, would harbor such ill intentions. "Joyce, if something bad happens to my great-grandson today, you and that cold-blooded daughter of yours can pack your things and head back to your hometown right away!" The only thing that mattered to Priscilla at the moment was the child Marion was carrying. It
After three days of intense treatment by Lana, Marion's baby finally stabilized.It was deemed beyond saving by the doctors. Still, Lana managed to snatch the child back from the clutches of death. She impressed everyone with her miraculous intervention.Marion's ultrasound revealed that the baby was lively and healthy. With that, the entire hospital buzzed with excitement.Doctors hurried to find Lana, the miracle worker. They wanted to capture the moment with her. However, Lana was nowhere to be found in Marion's room.After finishing Marion's treatment, Lana provided Devon with specific instructions. She also advised Marion to rest more during her pregnancy.Then, she left after giving Marion some prenatal supplements.Lana was now a prominent figure in various circles. She found herself stretched thin due to her numerous responsibilities. Devoting continuous time to one person was a luxury she couldn't afford.Her primary focus was on the development of the 6G smartphone p
