The days rolled into weeks, and Ethan’s determination grew with every passing moment. Despite the challenges he faced in rebuilding his company and working on his physical rehabilitation, he found solace in Emma’s unwavering presence.

For Emma, balancing her growing affection for Ethan with the secret of her medical expertise became increasingly difficult. Her hidden talents had already come to light, but she kept her connection to her family and the circumstances that had led her to study medicine a closely guarded secret.

That morning, Emma sat on the edge of Ethan’s bed, reviewing the new exercises their therapist had prescribed. Ethan watched her, his head tilted slightly, a smirk playing on his lips.

“Do you always take things so seriously?” he asked, interrupting her concentration.

She looked up, arching an eyebrow. “When it comes to you, yes. Someone has to.”

“Fair point,” he said with a chuckle. “But you could at least pretend I’m more than just your patient.”

    Ethan’s progress in his recovery was a testament to his resilience, but the path was far from smooth. Every victory was accompanied by setbacks, and the pressure of managing both his health and the company weighed heavily on him. Emma, ever the steady presence in his life, took on the role of caretaker, motivator, and confidante. This morning, however, the mood in the house was unusually tense. Ethan was scheduled for a major company meeting with key investors, and his anxiety was palpable. --- As Emma prepared breakfast in the kitchen, Ethan wheeled himself in, his jaw set in a firm line. “You’re up early,” she remarked, setting a plate of scrambled eggs and toast in front of him. “I couldn’t sleep,” he admitted, his tone clipped. “Today’s meeting is critical. If I can’t convince the investors to back my plan, everything we’ve worked for could crumble.” Emma placed a cup of coffee beside him and sat across the table. “Ethan, you’ve faced tougher challenges. This is just another

    The morning sunlight filtered through the large windows of Ethan’s estate, illuminating the quiet tension that hung in the air. Ethan sat in his wheelchair by the window, his hands clasped tightly together. The week had been filled with small victories—improved mobility, a successful company meeting—but today, unease gnawed at him.Emma entered the room carrying a tray of coffee and toast. She paused, studying Ethan’s pensive expression.“Deep thoughts so early in the morning?” she asked, setting the tray on the small table beside him.Ethan glanced at her, his lips pressing into a thin line. “Something feels... off. The board meeting went too smoothly. I can’t shake the feeling that there’s something happening behind the scenes.”Emma poured him a cup of coffee and handed it to him. “You’re always so suspicious, Ethan. Maybe they’re finally recognizing your efforts.”He gave a humorless chuckle. “It’s not that simple. The corporate world doesn’t work on goodwill.”---Later that day,

    Emma woke up to the sound of heavy rain tapping against the windows. The gloomy weather matched her mood as she sat up in bed, rubbing her temples. Ethan was already awake, sitting in his wheelchair by the window, staring out into the storm.“Good morning,” she said softly, standing and walking over to him.Ethan glanced at her, his expression unreadable. “Morning.”His tone was distant, and Emma felt the coldness in the air between them. Ever since their conversation the night before, things had felt strained.“Are you okay?” she asked, kneeling beside his chair and placing a hand on his knee.He hesitated before nodding. “Just thinking about the company. The board is pushing for a vote to permanently remove me as CEO.”Emma’s heart sank. “What? But you’re recovering—you’re still the rightful CEO!”Ethan shook his head, his jaw tightening. “They don’t care about that. All they see is a crippled man who’s no longer useful to them.”Emma reached for his hand, squeezing it firmly. “You’

It was a rare moment of peace, one she was reluctant to disturb.But reality didn’t wait.She slipped out of bed carefully, not wanting to wake him. Her mind was still spinning from the events of the previous day—the threat from the board, the tension with Ethan, and the growing weight of their circumstances.As she padded quietly into the kitchen, the sound of her phone buzzing broke the silence. She picked it up, expecting a message from her family or a reminder from the hospital, only to see an unknown number flashing on the screen.“Hello?” she answered hesitantly.A gruff voice greeted her. “Mrs. Johnson, I hope you’ve considered the proposal we sent you yesterday.”Emma’s breath caught in her throat. It was the same man from the grocery store.“What do you want?” s

Carl was not the kind of man to go down without a fight, and they both knew it.Emma’s fingers flew over the keyboard as she meticulously compiled evidence against Carl. Ethan watched her from his spot in the living room, his wheelchair parked strategically by the window where he could keep an eye on the driveway.“Any luck?” Ethan asked, his voice cutting through the silence.Emma sighed, brushing a stray lock of hair from her face. “I’m piecing everything together. It’s taking time, but I’m close. These documents alone should be enough to force an investigation.”Ethan rolled closer, resting his elbows on the armrests of his chair as he leaned toward her. “Close isn’t good enough, Emma. Carl’s already sniffing around. If he gets wind of what we’re doing, he’ll bury us before
