“You are?” the Cromwell family’s doctor turned around at the voice.

A young girl stood before him, her long black hair cascading down, biting into a piece of fruit candy. She looked quite young, but her face was so strikingly beautiful that it was hard to ignore. Her demeanor was cool, yet elegant, and a mole at the corner of her eye gave her an almost ethereal charm. Her deep, dark eyes seemed to exude a quiet but powerful presence, making anyone she looked at feel a subtle pressure.

Manager Monroe quickly spoke up, “Steven, this is the little miracle doctor I brought…”

“Nonsense!”

Before Manager Monroe could finish, a sharp reprimand cut him off.

“You greedy little girl again.” The voice of Evelyn Adler came as she slowly entered the room. Her gaze swept over Amelia, and her expression darkened. “So, you’re here to scam people because you can’t get paid, huh?”

She shouted, “Who let this person in? Was there no one to check on them?”

Hearing her shout, the attending doctor rushed ove

    A trace of panic flashed in Brycen's eyes, quickly replaced by anger: "Rhianna! How can you believe the nonsense of a stranger? I've done so much for you, worried myself sick over the company inside and out just so you could recover in peace. I even make time every day to cook for you and take care of you. Does my kindness mean nothing compared to a few words from someone else?"His tone carried a hint of grievance and hurt, as if he had truly been betrayed by the person closest to him: "Back when we started the business, who stayed up late working overtime with you? Who never left your side when you faced difficulties? Who searched for clients day and night just to fulfill your dream and grow the Woodward Group? Now that your health is poor, I've canceled all unnecessary social events, staying home every day to make soup and care for you. Is this really how you see me?"A barrage of questions made Rhianna's gaze even more confused. She looked at the 'hurt' in Brycen's

    It was a call from an unknown number, and it was from New York. Not many people knew her cell phone number.Thinking of this, she pressed the answer button: "Hello."The person on the other end was Rhianna."Hello..." Rhianna's tone was a bit confused. "Who are you? I found a business card that seemed familiar, so I called the number."Hearing her voice and words, Amelia frowned slightly. "I'm Amelia, Ms. Woodward. Don't you remember me?""Amelia?" Rhianna was stunned for a moment. "You know me? But I... I can't remember who you are."In the past few days, Rhianna's health had deteriorated. Not only did her dizziness and tinnitus become more frequent, but her memory had also declined sharply. Sometimes she even forgot what she had just done, and occasionally even called Brycen by the wrong name.What frightened her even more was that she had started coughing frequently, and sometimes coughed up small amounts of blood. When she told Br

    "Special Operations Team leader?" Levi's fingertips trembled. "No... impossible, how could you be from the Special Operations Team! That's a high-level unit, how could they possibly come to HUD?"Amelia smiled faintly, her tone gentle and lingering. "If it weren't for the demolition of Clearwater Lane, I wouldn't have even noticed your HUD."Garrett watched the scene before him, his gaze growing somber. He took out his phone and immediately dialed the City Accountability Office. "Hello, it's me, Garrett. Levi and Orson from HUD are suspected of serious violations and misconduct. The evidence is conclusive. Please send someone over to handle it."The meeting room fell into a deathly silence. Orson slumped in his chair, his face ashen, while Levi clutched his head, his body trembling, muttering to himself, filled with regret and despair.Amelia stood where she was, looking at these two men who once held high positions in LA's construction system, now reduce

    Garrett's voice was low: "Then let's go upstairs and talk about this matter.""This way, please." Levi stepped aside to invite Garrett and Amelia upstairs, then signaled the security guards to help Orson, who was slumped on the ground, to his feet and bring him along.After all, although this incident affected HUD's reputation here, on a larger scale, it was a matter of public trust. Once their reputation was damaged, who would ever trust officials again?Before Garrett arrived, Amelia had already told him most of what had happened. He knew the impact was significant. If HUD was truly riddled with corruption, it had to be rooted out, and a public announcement had to be made so the people would know the truth. The public could not be left disillusioned.Levi quickly turned to the staff behind him: "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and serve tea to Mr. Rodriguez and the others."The group walked through the lobby and entered the elevator. Th

    Carl smiled faintly. "Alright, I get to taste your cooking again."A moment later, the others dispersed, leaving only Amelia, Carl, and Victoria in the courtyard."Grandma, let's go inside." Amelia supported Victoria. "I'll make you something to eat."Amelia helped Victoria to a seat, then looked at Carl. "Keep Grandma company and chat with her. I'll go to the kitchen and cook."Carl looked up. "Do you need a hand?""No need, I can handle it myself." Amelia said as she picked up an apron, went to the yard to pick some fresh greens, and then headed to the kitchen.Carl watched her movements, a smile hidden in his eyes."Carl." Victoria's voice was soft."I'm here, Grandma. Go ahead." Carl replied without any restraint, turning his gaze to Victoria sitting beside him.Victoria lifted her eyes. "I know you and Amelia care for each other. That makes me happy. I know Amelia's character well—she has a stubborn spirit, bu

    Grandma smiled and shook her head. "I know my own condition, but I still have a wish unfulfilled. I want to see the day you two hold your wedding."As her words fell, Amelia and Carl exchanged a glance."Grandma, once we've taken care of everything at hand," Carl was the first to speak, "we'll hold the wedding. I'll host the grandest ceremony in New York and marry her with all due respect."Hearing this, Grandma nodded with a smile. "Alright, I'll be waiting for that day."Amelia looked at the white hair at Grandma's temples and the wrinkles on her face, then spoke up on her own initiative. "Grandma, I heard the Hickman Group wants to demolish Clearwater Lane..."Grandma's smile froze for a moment, then she sighed softly and nodded, her tone tinged with helplessness. "Yes, someone came to notify us a few days ago. The Hickman Group wants to turn Clearwater Lane into a high-end residential area and asked us to move out as soon as possible. They have
