She was panicking, but she knew that she had to remain calm when dealing with his tantrums. Otherwise, she would only worsen the situation. "He's a director at the hospital, and is nothing more than my superior!" "Is that so?" John Winters evidently did not believe it. "His gaze when he looked like me told me otherwise!" "That's because of your attitude when you first came up to the floor. He was only worried about me." He raised an eyebrow. "So, does your male superior worry about all his subordinates?" Natalie Snowden had no reply. It was not because she had done something wrong, but because their relationship was truly something more than mere friends. She did not think that their relationship ought to be put into question, though John was right that Sean was more concerned about her than the other doctors. Even so, she felt that she should be able to explain their relationship to her husband, if not that her husband was John Winters. She felt a headache creeping
Natalie Snowden took the next three days off against her will. Rather than being on vacation, it felt more like being put under house arrest. In those three days, she did nothing other than sleep and eat. Rather, the family did not allow her to do anything. Whenever she tried to do something, someone would run to her and say, "Master says this" or "Master says that"… She might not be used to it, but she was pampered as the Young Madam of the Winters family in those three days. Except that she had not seen John Winters in those three days at all… She was not eager to find out where he went, even though she asked the servants about his whereabouts. The Winters family servants were all very loyal. Whenever she asked about John Winters, all of them answered, "I don't know." She understood that the servants might not know his exact location, but they ought to know where he roughly was. Of course, she received no answers other than "I don't know." Was that not a little too st
Zoey Graham's elder brother was also a doctor in Huahe Hospital. They were not in the same department, but he and Sean Quinton were in the same cohort and thus had been good friends. Other than Luke Shears, he was Sean's best friend. That was why Natalie Snowden thought of asking Sean's address from him. Zoey became excited when Natalie asked that question. "Wow! I thought you said that you had no affection for him." "It's not that. I'm looking for him for something important." "What's so important?" "I'll tell you after I've confirmed something. Can you help me ask for Director Quinton's house address now?" Zoey blinked. "Aren't you very close with Director Quinton? Don't you have his house address already?" "I've told you that I'm not that close to him. We don't have any relations outside of work." Zoey only half-believed her, though she said cheerfully, "Promise me that you'll tell me everything after, OK?" "Of course…" "Alright then! After lunch, I'll…" Natali
'So it's because of him after all!' What John Winters did was much lesser than what she had expected him to do, but she could not tolerate the fact that he had asked Sean to leave the medical world forever. She knew very well that Sean Quinton was a medical genius. Losing him would be a tremendous blow to the entire medical world. She trembled with anger. "He's gone overboard!" Sean was composed throughout the entire incident, a stark contrast to Natalie's reaction. "To be frank, I've always dreamed of going to that hospital as a visiting surgeon. If I choose to leave the medical world instead, I'll regret it for the rest of my life." Then, he said the words that he had been trying to hold back for the past three days."Do you truly love him, Nat?" "…" Natalie Snowden was speechless. She did not expect the conversation to take on such a tangent. Her hands that were resting on her thighs gripped her pants tightly. Words were not necessary. He knew her temperament and unde
Natalie Snowden was incredibly irritated. She resented John Winters even more because of what she was told. 'That man is ridiculously unreasonable…' She would not have to experience that awkward scene with Sean Quinton, if not that John Winters had made his move on Sean because of the small misunderstanding. So… She needed to clarify the situation with John Winters. She did not appreciate the fact that Sean was forced to leave the country, even if they might not be able to look at each other eye-to-eye anymore. Sean's words replayed one more time in her mind and she clenched her fists… She had sustained her anger all the way back to the Winters house, but he was not there. Still fueled by that anger, she got the family driver to send her to the Winters Corporation building. She reached there and was intercepted at the reception counter… The security guards looked at her. "I'm sorry! You can't go up if you're not an employee of the company…" "I'm here to look for John Wi
Natalie had not considered that point… The answer was obvious. If she had thought about it, she could see that Sean Quinton was indeed struggling over the decision. His hesitation was understandable, though Natalie Snowden's cheeks were burning when she was asked that piercing question. 'Perhaps I shouldn't have come here after all?' However, if she had not come here, that problem would be plaguing her… but how was it a problem at all? She was lost in thought when John Winters stood up from his seat and walked in front of her. As he stepped closer, Natalie found herself stepping backward until her back was against the door. John lifted his right hand and placed it heavily on the door, next to her face. "Admit it. You're not as important to him as you think you are, isn't it?" 'Is that what he wants to say?' Natalie immediately felt relieved. "I've never wanted to be important to him anyway. Still, business is business… "I'm grateful that you're giving Director Quint
It was true that one could lose their senses when drunk!However, John remembered that day very well. Although he had drunk a lot, but he was not completely under the influence of alcohol...He knew best that he indeed wanted to take her that night.It was just that he did not know who she was at that time, he only thought that she might be a ‘gift’ arranged for him by someone who was trying to please him.He never took gifts, especially gifts like this...However, that day, under the double whammy of excitement, he had a rare desire to indulge in it. In other words, he felt that only in this way could he relieve the heaviness in his heart. He even thought that since he would never marry the person he had wanted to anyway, what difference did it make if it were some other woman?Even though he saw her crying, even though he could feel that it was her first time, he still went crazy and took her, again and again, that night.Only after she finally cried fainting under his body, d
She knew he would be unhappy. After all, he was a man accustomed to commanding and ordering people around, how would he like to hear people going against him?It did not matter if it was about herself, but if it was about Howard...As an older sister, she had a duty to protect him. "It doesn't matter how you treat me but please spare my brother, he's still a child.""Spare him? I'm just asking him to accompany my daughter to and from school. Is that difficult?""Just to and from school?"She did not want to sound acidulous, but his nonchalant attitude eventually hurt Natalie. "Who is your daughter? Who is my brother? You said my brother has good character and your daughter is a bit wayward. What do you want him to do if your daughter went too far during the school run?"She said it all in one breath, and she could not stop after finishing it. "The result of defying her was what happened to me that day, the result of not defying her..."As she got to this point, she took a deep b
Although they were only leaving for the capital, everyone knew that this was the formal farewell ceremony between Howard and Natalie...Hence, he held back his tears. “I know, Sis. I also want too see your babies. Although I can’t see them, you must tell her that Uncle loves them very much...”Natalie didn't expect him to mention the baby in her belly, so she smiled and said, "If you love her, come back and see her.""Okay, if I have time, I will definitely come back..."Natalie said, "You have to come back whenever you have time.""Well, do you have time? I will come back..."Hearing her brother's promise, Natalie suddenly couldn't help crying. She buried her head in her brother's chest and began to cry silently...Looking at her sister's reaction, wonton felt a lump in his throat. Even though he was a grown man, he couldn't help shedding two lines of tears.Just like that, the two siblings hugged each other and cried bitterly. Then, he also burst into tears.The moods of the
Her heart swelled and her nose grew sour. “All of you don’t care about my feelings at all. You’re heartless...”"Sister, I still have a conscience..."She knew that her sister would feel uncomfortable, so the mistress didn't mention it for a few days and kept it until now.He also said, "I am a man who will be a diplomatic ambassador in the future. If I stay at home alone, how can I see the world?""But, how can I rest assured when you're outside alone? Chloe at least have..."At least she had Jordan.Even if her sister did not finish her words, Holly knew what she was going to say. She smiled, but he did not take it seriously. "She's a girl, and I'm a man!""In my eyes, they are all children..."Of course, Howard understood this, so she smiled casually and said, "If you're so worried about me, you can come and see me often. When I'm not busy with class, I'll come back..."Speaking of this, he seemed to be afraid that his sister would feel uncomfortable, so he added, "And, I k
Capital Hua.On one hand, John was pressuring him, and on the other, Yvonne was pressuring him. On the other hand, even if Lawrence did not want his liver, he still had his sister’s attitude. Two days later, Silas Yin could no longer hold on.He had compromised and agreed to Yvonne’s request...After that, the shares of the Yeager family were divided into two. However, it was changed from fifty-fifty to forty-six by Yvonne. He took six, and Yvonne took four.On the surface, Yvonne seemed to have suffered a little loss, but her 10% concession finally made Silas sign the operation form three days later.After that, everything went as planned.The surgery was very successful. Although it was not a gift from a relative, Lawrence reacted very well after the surgery, and his vital signs gradually improved.Molly was the happiest. When she came to see her brother every day, the smile on her face was also the most brilliant...In order to save her brother, she had lost everything she w
When he received the summons from his three elders, Zachary was peeling oranges and feeding them to Jenny.As a result, a phone call came and both of them panicked.Even though the two of them were not worried about the same person, when they rushed over, both of them were already drenched in sweat...Jenny was afraid that her mother would suffer losses, so after she arrived at the Fu family home, she kept looking at her mother up and down several times. When she was sure that there was nothing wrong with her mother's body, she heaved a long sigh of relief.However, after taking a deep breath, he took another one.At that time, Mrs. Klein had directly said, "I called you here today to discuss your marriage. Let's pick a good date!""Huh?""..."Unsure of what had happened, Jenny and Zachary stared at each other blankly for a long time, unsure if what they had heard was true or not.“Sit down first!” Mrs. Stone interrupted. “Talking about marriage is no ordinary matter. It’ll t
Mrs. Stone could tell that she had plans, but she didn't intend to give in at all. She even said, "Isn't it great? With her rich experience, she can find any girl she wants. As for my daughter, with her stubborn character, she probably won't get married in a short time. It's just the right time to raise a child. Don't worry!"How could she let Mrs. Klein feel at ease?No matter what, she was still his grandson or granddaughter. At her age, she had wanted the third generation for a long time, so...She wanted to keep this child and asked, "Do you really think so? Or are you the only one who thinks so? Have you asked Jenny?""I made the decision for her, and I took the money for her...""This... is not good!"Mrs. Klein wanted to say more, but Mrs. Stone waved her hand and said bluntly, "There's nothing good about it. It's better than hitting a child again... Anyway, your family can't accept Mark's grandson, so it's better not to delay.""..."These words rendered Mrs. Klein spee
It was a triplets!Not to mention Mrs. Stone and Jenny, Zachary was stunned when he heard that...The Klein family had never had a twin before, but now, they had three at once.He was about to go crazy with joy, and in front of his mother, he lifted her up and spun around a few times, scaring her so much that she knocked on his door.It was not until he had finally let go of her that he suddenly hugged Jenny tightly. Then...She could feel the warmth coming from her shoulder area...Was...he crying?This man was too much. He had a smile on his face at all times, yet he actually shed tears because of something like this. However, her heart warmed even more when she saw him like this.Moreover, when she first knew that she was pregnant, her first reaction was to worry about whether she could get it or not!But now it seemed that even if he didn't want it, he wouldn't allow it!Moreover, there were three of them!The two of them held each other in their arms for a long time, wh
How could Yvonne not see through his refusal?When she thought of the doting love she had experienced in the past and the end of her fate with this child in the future, Yvonne cried again and said in a trembling voice, "I... I will guard you..."Hearing this, Lawrence did not respond, but closed his eyes right in front of her...Seeing her nephew like this, Yvonne understood that her relationship with this child had come to an end...The things that she was left was this child’s “heartless fee” and her own “heartless fee”.However, even though her heart was still throbbing with pain, even though the palms and backs of her hands were all flesh and blood, they were still her own flesh and blood. For the sake of her own child, she could only disregard her conscience this time.At this point, Yvonne’s eyes also turned red. When she walked out of the ward, she kept on wiping her tears...She didn’t want to be this selfish either! However, she had blindly married the wrong man. If she
When Yvonne did not come over, Molly was actually very angry with her.It could be said that even if she came over, Molly did not want to talk to her when she first saw her. But now, seeing her crying like this, Molly seemed to be a little softhearted...Because even if Molly angered her, she could see that Yvonne's tears were sincere.After all, she had raised Lawrence for many years. Even if she had designs on him, her feelings for him were most likely real.Therefore, there were many questions for her to ask, but Molly did not say anything at this time. She just stood far away and looked at them.Yvonne cried for a long time before she finally stopped. She held Lawrence’s hand tightly and said, "I’m sorry. I promised Brother that I would take good care of you, but now..."As she spoke, she choked with sobs again...When he finally raised his head, his eyes were swollen. "I'm sorry, Lawrence, I'm really sorry, but... if I don't do this, even if you are cured in the future, the
This question...It was rather a complicated question. It was better to say that Molly had never thought of this reason.She was surprised. "Are you saying that my father doesn't want to help my aunt because I'm close to her?""It's natural for you to be close to your aunt, but your aunt is such a person. How can your father trust her to guide you?""..."Molly remained silent. She glanced at her brother and realized that his complexion was much worse than before.She had only been with her aunt for a short period of time, and her brother had been raised by her aunt since he was a child. In terms of the blow, she was no match for her brother.Molly reached out and pulled her brother's hand. Although her brother was unhappy, he still squeezed a smile for her.However, that smile made her heartache even more!At this moment, Larry said, "Even an outsider like me is quite unhappy with your aunt after hearing what you just said. Don't you know how much your dad dotes on you?"Spe
