In the villa of the Baldwin family.

Kevin and Lauryn came to the dining table and delivered various breakfasts to their two daughters.

"Dad, this is your favorite breakfast herbal tea. I'll make you a cup of tea." Courtney stood up and poured the tea from the white porcelain teapot into Kevin's cup. Then she picked up another blue teapot and poured the fruit tea inside into Lauryn's cup. "Mom, this is your favorite fruit tea. Drink it while it's warm."

Lauryn hadn't expected her daughter to still remember their habits. She smiled lovingly and took a sip from the teacup.

Courtney, like a victor after a battle, deliberately glanced at Abigail.

Abigail was her parents' biological daughter, but so what? After spending so many years together with her parents, no one knew their habits better than her.

How could Abigail fail to see her through? She looked calm and ate the delicate food on the plate slowly. She never took what Courtney did seriously.

"Abby, I don't know what kind of tea you l

    At the end of the fire, the entire hospital was turned into ashes.She always felt that someone had set the fire on purpose.Leon said, "If I find out that the fire was deliberately set off by someone and caused you to have such a difficult life in the Guzman family, I will not let him go!"After chatting for a while, Abigail saw that the time was almost up, and Marisa should be at the appointed place soon, so she went downstairs, "Mom, I'm going out for a while.""Okay..." Lauryn originally wanted to ask her daughter where she was going, who she was going to meet, and what she was going to do, but she was afraid that her daughter would be annoyed. So she could only ask with a smile, "Shall I ask Braydon to drive you?""Mom." Courtney on the side couldn't help but say, "I just asked Braydon to take me to a place later. I have an appointment with a friend..."Lauryn frowned slightly, "Can't you ask Duncan to drive you?""Duncan has a habit of taking a nap. If he wakes up now, I'm afrai

    "The starting price is 200,000."Hearing what the system said, Marisa sighed. The leftovers were worth 200,000...There were three buttons in front of the glass wall, marked with one hundred thousand, five hundred thousand, and one million respectively.In other words, the minimum price increase was 100,000 per click.Courtney, who was standing in front of the glass wall, saw blue amounts of money flashing on the glass walls of other rooms. After several rounds of competition, the price had risen to 1.2 million."Courtney, this thing is pretty good. You can buy it and make soup for Sir Lucero. Firstly, it will be good for his health. Secondly, he will know that you are a virtuous woman and can make soup. I'm sure he will be impressed by you... "Courtney wanted to get this treasure, but other bidders were so competitive. She pressed 100,000 a few times but couldn't get it. In the end, she made up her mind and directly pressed 1 million!At this time, the audience fell silent."2.5 mil

    Abigail put the phone close to her ear, and heard Ronan's magnetic voice, "Something happened to my grandpa. Could you come over?"Abigail was a little puzzled. Given the situation of Sir Lucero yesterday, he was recovering very well.What happened?"Where are you?" Ronan's pleasant voice was like a cello, low and seductive, "I'll pick you up.""Then you go to Bradford Church in the suburbs."Bradford Church was not far from the manor. If Abigail took a shortcut, it would be only a few minutes away.Ronan was a little surprised, "Are you in the suburbs?""Yes."Bradford Church was an old building from the 1980s. No believers went there to pray anymore. Weeds were overgrown there. She was a girl. What was she doing there?After Abigail hung up the phone, she said to Marisa, "I'm going to Bradford Church. I have something to deal with.""Okay." Marisa knew that she had a lot of fake identities, so she didn't ask, "I'll send the things to you later."After bidding, there was still a set

    "Is there a Heart Pill in this soup?" Abigail raised her clear eyes and asked Jaeden beside her.Jaeden was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Yes, the person who delivered the soup said that the Heart Pill has a miraculous effect on the heart, and it won't have any side effects with any medicinal materials...""It's true." Abigail finally knew what the problem was, "But with Sir Lucero's current physical condition, he cannot be replenished. This soup would have the opposite effect if he had it.""So, there's nothing wrong with this soup. It's because Sir Lucero's physique isn't suitable?" Jaeden hadn't expected that the young girl in front of him was quite capable, and she instantly knew the problem when she smelled it.Just then, the door of the operating room opened, and a nurse hurried out, "Mr. Lucero, it's great to see you! Please sign the surgery notice..."Ronan looked at the pen and paper in her hand but didn't take it. Instead, he asked in a cold voice, "How is my gr

    "Sir Lucero will be able to wake up tomorrow morning. In the following month, he is forbidden to take supplements. Don't give him supplement soup like today.""Okay." Ronan agreed and then looked at the darkening sky, "Let me treat you to dinner.""No, thanks. I should go home."It was probably seven o'clock now. Abigail took the bag, took out her phone, and checked it. As expected, her mother had called her twice.Abigail quickly called back, "Mom, I'm sorry, I was busy just now."Ronan looked at the girl talking on the phone in front of him. She had an extraordinary temperament. When she was talking to her family, her voice was soft and pleasant."OK. I'll go back now. Goodbye."Seeing that she hung up the phone, Ronan said softly, "I'll take you back.""Then take me to Moon Park. I have a car parked in the underground garage."Moon Park?It was a park under construction and it was not yet open to the public. How could her car be parked there? Why did she appear in the church?To hi

    To prevent Gina from being wronged, and to drive this damn girl away as soon as possible, the two of them had posted Abigail's information on the relative search website behind Vanessa's back. Finally, one day, Abigail's family called and said they were going to take her back.When Vanessa heard about this, she was so greatly stimulated that she was admitted to the hospital.When Vanessa was not at home, Abigail was successfully "driven" out of the Guzman family."I wonder if your mother is old and confused. She treats an outsider better than her granddaughter!" Marlene complained, but couldn't help worrying, "I'm afraid that if Abigail doesn't leave, she will have a bad idea, like fighting with Gina over Maximo..."The family conditions of the Moore family were much better than their Guzman family!Maximo was a gentle and sensible young man. It could be seen that he cherished Gina very much and treated Gina very well...Gina wasn't bad herself. She was beautiful and gentle enough to

    "Dr. Conrad is so young, but he has a really bad temper..." Marlene couldn't help complaining as soon as she walked out of the consulting room, "Look at Maximo. He was born a rich second generation. He's so polite...""He's a genius doctor. He's a little bit arrogant because he's very popular.""Oh, just now Dr. Conrad said that someone asked him to take good care of your mother. It should be the Moore family that cares about her so much, right?"Maximo's family had a wider network than them, and they were the only ones who could help Vanessa's condition.Besides, Maximo and Gina were engaged..."It must be the Moore family. Who else could it be but them? I should treat them to dinner another day, but..." Seeing that the transfer had failed, Elliott could only let his mother stay here. He was a little unhappy."Elliott, which way did that damn girl go just now?" Suddenly, Marlene seemed to think of something, "I remember that the wards over there are quite expensive."Half of this flo

    "I'm not a coward."Abigail didn't take this environment seriously. She had been in much worse conditions before and was quite experienced.She was about to undo her seat belt when Ronan leaned in close to her, and his pleasant scent wafted over her. "Let me do it."At close range, Abigail found that his facial features were excellent, and even his skin was so delicate.Ronan lifted his gaze, and his deep eyes looked at her seriously, "Tell me when you have time.""Okay."Ronan got out of the car before her and opened the door for her. After she got out of the car, he hung the shoulder bag on her shoulder and then handed her the things he just bought."You can eat this when you're hungry at night."Abigail originally wanted to refuse, but when she saw his eyes, she reached out and took it.Unexpectedly...The next second...Her slender fingers accidentally brushed against Ronan's hand, and the soft touch made her heart skip a beat.A special feeling welled up inside her.Seeing her ta

    Courtney was stunned for a few seconds, as if frozen in place."Can you, like her, accept her in front of your parents and brother? Just as she accepted you?"Riley saw her lost in thought and patted her head, "Think about what big brother said tonight before going to bed. I hope that next time he comes home, he can see a different you."Riley's biological clock was still accurate. There were only three minutes left until his bedtime. He stood up and did not make any exceptions for anyone.Before he left, he specifically said, "If I were you, I would cherish everything in front of me, not wait until it's lost to regret it."Courtney looked at him in astonishment."Goodnight," Riley took a step and left the terrace.Seeing Riley leave, Janet, who was hiding in the dark, quickly appeared and said, "Miss Courtney, are you alright?"She had secretly followed Riley since she went to find Miss Courtney just now.I thought Rile

    Due to significant damage to their central nervous system, as well as respiratory tract infections, anemia, disturbances of water and electrolyte balance, and other conditions, my grandparents required multiple medications.She first prepared the medicine she needed to take for the next three days, grinding them into powder for easy mixing with water.Unconsciously, it was already 8:30 in the evening and I had been busy.Riley and others were in the lush courtyard, raising their watches and looking towards the direction of the gate, but they never saw the figure of their sister returning home.Did she go out for something? Is she going to see that doctor?I don't know whether that doctor was a man or a woman. If it was a man, going alone so late, would my sister be taken advantage of?At this moment, Marilyn approached respectfully and reported, "Riley, the daisies you ordered have been planted. Would you like to go up and take a look?"

    Riley suddenly became curious about her sister's position in the medical field. She wondered how her sister could come up with a solution to such a difficult medical condition in an instant.As is well known, the most skilled doctor internationally was Elian. It was said that his medical skills were extraordinary, capable of bringing the dead back to life. However, he was elusive, and no one knew his whereabouts.Since my grandparents were admitted to the ICU, he had sent people multiple times to inquire about Elian's whereabouts, hoping to ask him to come forward and save my grandparents.Some people said that he had already died, while others said that he had once appeared at Secret Delta. Whether these pieces of information are reliable or not, nobody knows.Did my sister learn her medical skills from Elian?If it was true, then surely the grandparents would be saved!"Abby, you seem so confident in that doctor's medical skills. It seems

    "Abby, you saved your grandmother! In such a short time, you brought her back from the brink of death! You are truly amazing!" Kevin was extremely excited and wanted to hug her.To our surprise, Lauryn hugged her daughter first and said, "Great, your grandmother is fine! She scared us just now!"I'm afraid something might have happened to her elderly lady...I didn't expect my daughter's medical skills to be so brilliant.No wonder Sergio always praised her excellent medical skills before.It turns out that it was not that the old person favored Abby, but Abby really had the ability!Her medical skills were really superb!The decisiveness, calmness, and wisdom she displayed during the process of rescuing someone just now were truly impressive!Abigail was suddenly embraced by her mother, a feeling of being loved, pampered, and valued that she had never experienced from childhood to adulthood."If your grandmother woke up

    "Mom, why don't you take Courtney out for a walk?" Riley reminded.Lauryn, also feeling heavy-hearted from her crying, stood up and pulled Courtney, "Courtney, let's go outside."Don't disturb grandparents' rest.When Courtney stood up, she pretended to be unsteady and threw herself into Lauryn's arms. "Mom, when will grandpa and grandma wake up? I'm so worried, I feel so uneasy... I feel dizzy, I can barely stand.""I know you're filial." Lauryn patted her back. "Mom believes that your grandparents are good people, and they will definitely recover soon.""I'm going to talk to the doctor," Kevin said. He couldn't control his emotions several times and stood up with red eyes, taking the first step out of the ward.When there were only the two siblings left in the ward, Riley asked softly, "Can you still take a pulse?"Abigail was taken aback for a moment, but she answered truthfully, "I know a little.""What went wrong with that

    "Hello," Abigail nodded slightly to show politeness.The head nurse took one look and noticed that this young lady's demeanor appeared even more noble than Courtney's. Could she possibly be a relative of the Baldwin family?He seemed to come from a prestigious family, well-mannered, and there was no trace of the fragility and stubbornness that Courtney exuded. It was evident that he was someone who understood the bigger picture."Did Mom and Dad wake up today?" Lauryn asked with a glimmer of hope, although she knew the chances were extremely low."Sir Baldwin and Madam Baldwin had not woken up yet. In the past three days, their condition has not been very good..."The daily monitoring data and doctor's advice would be updated in the background of a software every day for Kevin and Lauryn to check at any time.Lauryn also noticed in the past few days that the data of the two elderly people has been gradually declining.

    After work, Riley brought Abigail to Mosley Hospital and parked the car in the VIP garage. Just as they got out of the car, they saw their motorhome approaching from a distance and parking in the spot next to theirs.This floor was exclusively for their family, the VIP floor where vehicles of other patients' families were not allowed to enter, ensuring excellent privacy.Kevin helped Lauryn out of the car while Courtney pretended to still be in pain from her previous fall and also asked her father for assistance.As soon as Courtney got out of the car, she immediately held Kevin's left hand and Lauryn's right hand, and said with a smile, "Big brother, sister, you're here too?"Riley's gaze fell on her arm, and she said, neither lightly nor heavily, "If someone didn't know, they would think that our parents are only yours. We are all grown-ups, yet still so childish."This is childish, I don't know if it means she is naive and loves to act coquettis

    "Um." Riley finally picked up the coffee and took a sip.Abigail also picked up the cup and tasted it, "Not bad."At this moment, someone brought the snack cabinet and snacks again. Jaylin personally organized them and said, "Ms. Abigail, Mr. Baldwin usually doesn't eat snacks. If there are any that don't suit your taste, you can tell me, and I won't have them delivered next time.""Okay." Abigail usually doesn't eat snacks, but seeing her older brother being so thoughtful, her heart still feels warm.Jaylin sorted the snacks into different categories and labeled them with tags such as nuts, spicy strips, cookies, candies, pastries, potato chips, and so on. She then stuck the labels on them to make it easier for Abigail to find them next time.Brent on the side watched with drooling mouth, almost envious to the point of tears. He also wished he had such a domineering and gentle older brother...After Jaylin finished his work, Riley asked him

    Noon.The employees who were eating in the cafeteria were so shocked when they saw Riley and Abigail appear that they couldn't even hold their forks steady.Hasn't Mr. Baldwin left yet?Did you still stay at the company and have lunch with Ms. Abigail?Did Mr. Baldwin really like Ms. Abigail, as rumored?But between them, there was at least a six or seven-year age difference!Is this considered an older bull eating tender grass?"He spoke to Ms. Abigail so gently."Riley bent down to listen to Abigail speaking, then nodded and said something to the cafeteria staff. They helped Abigail with her meal, first bringing it to the table and making her sit in her seat to wait."Mr. Baldwin was such a gentleman! He helped Ms. Abigail serve her meal first before serving his own, without any hesitation or inconvenience.""Abby!!"At this moment, Makenna prepared the meal and saw Abigail sitting alone at the dining tab
