Candice looked at her. "What husband?"The nurse said, "Wasn't it your husband who sat outside your ward all night? Didn't you guys have a fight, and you kicked him out?""You've got the wrong person. I'm not married."The nurse felt embarrassed. "Oh, it must have been a relative of the patient in t

Candice had always known that Alex had a sharp tongue, but she never expected him to use Hanley's mother to jab at his wound.They all knew that Hanley had gone abroad this time because his mother was not doing well.She trembled slightly, but she was unsure if it was out of anger or if she was remi
