LOGIN“And I can take this chance to get some proper rest while I’m hospitalized.”Zachary and his brothers were all sharp-eyed and perceptive. The way his eyes had lit up when he saw Sheila had not escaped Serenity’s notice, so of course, the rest had caught it too.Having been through similar experiences themselves, they could not help but wonder if Alex might be developing a romantic interest.However, the older lads generally did not interfere in their younger brothers’ personal lives unless they were asked for advice based on their own experiences.Peter teased Alex lightly, “Weren’t you just saying you didn’t need to be hospitalized? You looked like you couldn’t wait to leave earlier. If Zack hadn’t been here to keep you in check, you probably would’ve bolted right after they treated your wounds.“Why the sudden change of mind after seeing the doctor? Now you want to stay, and for several days, too, at that.”Alex replied calmly, “I just remembered I’ve been working non-stop on a
The chief replied, “I recognize three people in the room—the eldest young master of the York family, Zachary York, his wife, and the third young master, Kevin York. The one standing by the bed looks unfamiliar, and I haven’t seen him before.“But he’s definitely a young master of the Yorks. They’re all very close, so the one who got into a car accident must be one of them. That’s why Zachary York, his wife, and Kevin York are all here.“Zachary York and his wife, Serenity, had a whirlwind marriage. From their quick wedding to now being deeply in love with a son and a daughter, their story is widely talked about. Serenity York was originally just an ordinary person, which is why many people know her.“Zachary York is the head of the York family and often appears in the news, so it’s easy to recognize him.”Sheila then asked, “Even if they are young masters of Wiltspoon’s wealthiest family, as doctors, we just need to do our jobs well. Why should we be afraid of them?”“There’s no n
They could only watch as the younger York lads remained single year after year.The senior doctor inquired about Alex’s condition and then said to the young female doctor, “Jones, this patient will also be under your care. He was injured in a car accident.”Sheila Jones glanced at Alex a couple of times and replied gently, “Yes, Chief.”She was not an intern but a new doctor who had just been assigned to work at Wiltspoon General Hospital.The senior doctor then said to Alex, “Your injuries aren't severe. Once the test results are out, if there are no major issues, you can be discharged after a couple of days of observation with some topical medication for your cuts.”The cuts on Alex’s hands from the shattered windshield would require regular application of medicated ointments.Alex said politely, “Thank you, doctor. But I feel a lot of pain in my sternum, and I’m worried there might be internal injuries. I’d like to stay a few more days for a thorough check-up.”Hearing this,
Serenity said firmly, “You absolutely need to stay in the hospital for a few days, for observation and a full body check-up. Some people seem fine right after an accident, but pass away a few days later due to internal injuries they weren’t aware of and didn’t seek treatment for.”“Zachary and Serenity are right. You should stay in the hospital for a few days no matter what,” Kevin chimed in, scolding his younger brother. “Otherwise, we won’t feel at ease.”Peter sat down on the edge of the bed. “Have you had your head checked?”“I’ve done all the checks. My head is definitely fine; it didn’t hit anything. Only my chest took the impact during the collision.”Alex felt that while the initial impact had been excruciating, the pain had since subsided somewhat. He believed it could not be anything serious.Zachary stated, “We’ll decide after all the results are out. For now, just focus on resting in the hospital.”Alex pursed his lips reluctantly. “Fine, but tell the doctors not to
After hanging up, Serenity walked back and said to Rosella and the others, “Aunt Rosella, Zachary asked me to go out for something. Please keep Mrs. Lafayette company and show her around. I’ve got to go handle this.”“Sure, go ahead,” Rosella replied.Serenity then said to her sister, “If Lil’ Pie looks for me, please help comfort her.”Liberty asked with concern, “What’s the matter that you have to go so urgently?”“It’s nothing big. I’ll be back once it’s dealt with. Lil’ Pie has Jiggy to play with, so she probably won’t cry or fuss.”With so many older kids around to play with the little one, she should be fine.Liberty assured her sister she would take good care of her niece, so Serenity could leave with peace of mind.When Sonny was little, he loved being with his aunt, and now Lil’ Pie also adored her Aunt Libby. Since Liberty was around, it was much easier for Serenity to go out. At least, the little girl would not cry.However, Liberty was busy and could not come back e
Daisy watched the large group of children playing and thought to herself that the York family truly had a vast legacy and a thriving household.The children paused their playing when they noticed the unfamiliar face.Jane, Liberty, and the others who had been sitting nearby came over.“Aunt Rosella.” They greeted Rosella, following Serenity’s lead.Rosella smiled in acknowledgment, and Serenity introduced Daisy to her sister and friends.Everyone exchanged pleasantries with Daisy.Looking at Jane, Daisy said with a smile, “So you’re the daughter of the Lafayette family from Meadspring. I’ve heard about you but never had the chance to meet you. I didn’t expect to see you in person today.”She extended her right hand, and Jane shook it warmly. “Five hundred years ago, all of us with the surname Lafayette were one family.”Daisy laughed.The Meadspring Lafayettes were more renowned and had a lineage that went further back than the Lafayettes of Solville.However, after a period
