After narrowly escaping a life-threatening situation, Nicki spent three days in the ICU. Then, Blair transferred her to a private hospital under his name in a room next to Spike’s.In the ward, Nicki had just regained consciousness when a doctor examined her by her bedside.“Master Blair, the patient’s condition is mostly stable now. With proper treatment, the injuries on her legs will heal without affecting her ability to walk in the future. However...”As the doctor spoke, he looked at Nicki lying on the bed and lamented, “Her facial injuries are quite deep and are likely to leave scars.”Appearances were crucial to young girls. Having her face disfigured at such a young age...Nicki lay on the bed and seemed to understand what the doctor said. She tried to touch her face.Mable pressed her hand down to prevent her and reassured her, “It’s okay. When you grow up a bit more, you can undergo cosmetic surgery to remove the scars on your face.”Nicki blinked and looked at Mable ti
At her words, Blair and Mable recalled what she meant.Mable did not expect Nicki to remember something that happened so long ago and even apologize to her about it.It seemed like the child’s thoughts were not malicious. She was just not properly guided.“It’s okay. It’s all in the past. I forgive you,” Mable said.If not for Olivia’s instigation, Nicki would not have done such a thing. Since she apologized, there was no need to hold a grudge against a child.After comforting Nicki, Blair and Mable left the ward.Mable looked at Blair and said, “I guess Nicki was probably trafficked. Have someone investigate thoroughly and see if we can find her biological parents.”Blair nodded. That was his plan, too, but...“What if we don’t find them?”Mable raised her brows and looked at him. “If we don’t find them, then adopt her as your goddaughter. After all, she’s been calling you Daddy for such a long time. You even chose her name.”Blair frowned and said nothing.Although he did
“Master Blair, we really might have gotten the wrong person.”Dick’s voice came through as soon as the call connected.Blair instructed him to reinvestigate the matter concerning Liv, so he naturally did not dare to be negligent and went to North Neya. He finally found some useful information after conducting investigations for nearly a month.Dick said, “The tattoo on Olivia’s back was done a year ago. I found the original tattoo artist. He looked at Olivia’s photo and confirmed that it was indeed her!“I also found out Olivia was brought to Neya ten years ago and has been operating in the northern region undercover. She has never left Neya during this period. However, she went missing for a month last year, which aligns with the time she got her tattoo.”Over the phone, Dick’s voice trembled with every word.This was a task he personally handled, and he was the one who informed Blair when he found Olivia. Now that there was such a major oversight, with Blair’s temperament, he m
The next day, the sun was shining brightly, and a gentle breeze filled the air.Early in the morning, the photography team for the bridal photos arrived at Royal View Villa.Tracey accompanied Mable into the dressing room and inadvertently noticed a new light red floral pattern on Mable’s back.“Mabes, did you get this checked at the hospital?” Tracey asked in concern.Mable looked at the reflection of the new pattern on her back in the mirror and shook her head. She did not have the time with so much happening recently.“Does it hurt?” Tracey pressed on the floral pattern on her back and asked.Mable also touched it. “It doesn’t feel like anything. It doesn’t itch or hurt.”Tracey helped zip Mable up while saying, “You should still go and get it checked after these busy days. Your health is important.”“Yeah.”After changing clothes, Tracey helped Mable lift her dress, and they walked out together.Outside the door, Blair was dressed in a black suit, impeccably groomed and e
Arthur drove and looked at Tracey in the passenger seat, texting on her phone. He asked, “Why are you going to Sleepless City?”Tracey originally wanted to say that Solomon had something to discuss with her. However, she suddenly thought of something and looked at him, saying with a playful smile, “I’m going to have some fun, of course.”Arthur froze. He gripped the steering wheel tightly and frowned. “Have some fun?”Tracey leaned her head against the car window and said in a powerless tone, “When Blair and Mabes got married, I was single. When they divorced, I was also single. Now that they’re remarrying, I’m still single!”Arthur drove silently, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes before quickly disappearing.Tracey did not notice the smile. When he remained silent, she bit her lip in frustration.Did he not realize she was hinting that she was always waiting for him?Tracey stared at his profile and asked, “Are you going back to Fasier?”If not for Blair’s company sudden
Tracey originally thought Arthur would say he would wait for her, but he unexpectedly nodded. She immediately felt angry and slammed the door, walking away without looking back.Arthur watched her back and placed a hand over his heart.In the past, he always avoided facing Tracey’s feelings toward him. Now that she no longer loved him, he got what he wished for. However, he felt an unprecedented sense of loss.For the first time, his heart ached....In Sleepless City.Solomon had just finished inspecting the place when he saw Tracey storm in angrily.“Who ruffled your feathers?” He asked with a laugh.“No one.”Tracey did not want to bring up Arthur. She sat on the sofa, poured herself a drink, and asked, “Why are you in such a hurry to find me?”Seeing that she did not want to talk about it, Solomon did not press further. He sat on a nearby armchair and then said, “Next Monday is Ines’ birthday. Should we prepare a surprise for her?”Tracey’s lips twitched. “Do you even ha
Tracey felt her surroundings blur. A familiar figure rushed over and pulled her into his arms. Then, he delivered a fierce kick to the drunk man’s chest.“Ah!”The man shrieked and sprawled on the ground.Tracey raised her head and stared blankly at the familiar face before her. “Didn’t you... already leave?”Why was he still here?Arthur did not answer but looked at her with concern. “Are you okay? Did you get hurt?”Tracey stared at his eyes, momentarily lost in thought.Was she mistaken?Why did she feel like Arthur was genuinely worried for her? It did not feel like a regular concern, but...The kind that had feelings in it.When Tracey did not speak, Arthur became anxious, thinking she might be injured. “Where are you hurt?”Tracey shook her head. “I... I’m fine.”Solomon rushed over and raised his brows when he saw Tracey in Arthur’s arms.Then, his sharp gaze fell on the man whom Arthur kicked down.“You must really be seeking death to dare go wild on my territor
There was a thumb-sized scar on her left cheek that could not be removed through cosmetic surgery for the time being. They had to wait until she was a bit older for the operation.Blair discussed it with Mable and decided to bring her back to Royal View Villa.Spike was unwilling to go to preschool, and with his high intelligence compared to kids his age, Blair hired a private tutor for him to study at home alongside Nicki.When Rory saved Spike, he used a lot of medicine, which had the side effects of damaging his vocal cords. Recently, Mable had been studying the medical books left behind by her master and found an acupuncture treatment that could help.However, due to her hand injury, she was cautious and did not dare to use the treatment. She prepared to wait until she finished rehabilitating her hands before starting the treatment....Meanwhile, in Italee.After a month of negotiation, Rory and the Mullers finally reached an agreement.That day, the Mullers hosted a dinne
