"What's going on here? There seems to be a happy gathering?" Doctor Winona said with a beaming smile. She later learned that Millet had just announced her engagement, seeing how Millet flashed her engagement ring. Doctor Winona said, "Wow, I know this ring. I happen to be a jewelry expert. Haha. N
On day three of the congress, Shantelle did not have any luck. Because she and Evan spoke late in the evening, debating about her apparently expensive engagement ring, she woke up late. She regretfully joined the table of Doctor Millet, Doctor Penelope, Doctor Emma, and Doctor Gina. There were new
"I think so," Penelope encouraged. Gina followed Evan's gaze and could swear he was looking at Shantelle. She was bemused. She replied to Emma, "I don't think so, Emma." Soon Evan made it up to the stage. He took the stand and welcomed everybody, saying, "Good afternoon, doctors. It is my honor t
From their original plan, Evan and Shantelle would meet outside the conference hall, and he would sit in with her during the awarding. The request for him to help present the prizes came at the last minute. When Evan arrived, he did not know how his wife would introduce him. He could confidently c
"We are sorry for the show, but it seems my wife misses me so much that she asked for a kiss. And that's fine because I miss her madly too," Evan reasoned. He turned to Shantelle and was reminded of the two medallions around her neck. He said, "I am proud of my wife's achievements and honesty. Since
"Mister Thompson, please don't get mad," Penelope backed up her friend. "As a responsible person, Millet thought you should know about Shantelle's history." Millet nodded, explaining to Evan, "Shantelle and I, we go to the same medical school back in Warlington. At first, she claimed she was single
Opening her mouth, she was this close to letting the words out when Emma called Shantelle's name. "Doctor Shant?" Shantelle had to excuse herself from Evan, and it was back at the round table where Emma spoke to her. She said, "I'm so sorry, Doctor Shant. I even suggested that you date one of our d
Shantelle felt guilty as she made it in the direction of Evan's office. She repeatedly took deep breaths, trying to compose herself. It was because her core tingled with excitement, especially with the thought of Evan licking her clit. When people glanced their way, she faked an elegant smile, but
"Fuck. Lucas is back?" Lewis indignantly turned to Lily and asked, "Do you know about this?" "Is Lucas really back, Lily?" Lily's mother also asked in shock. All her brothers, except for Liam, asked the same thing. Lily helplessly looked at Liam, and seeing her brother wasn't going to spill eithe
"The aortic stent graft collapse," Doctor Steven reported to the Wright family. "That caused him to faint. So, earlier, we inserted another stent, and he is under observation." "I feel that there is a but coming," Lily's oldest brother, Liam, predicted. Behind him, all of Lily's brothers were givin
"Mommy, are you okay? You have been staring into spaces lately," Aiden asked. Lily was helping her son with his homework. While Aiden wrote his answers in the book, Lily was in a daze. "Sorry, Buddy. Was thinking of something," Lily said. "Are you done?" "Almost. I'm so glad your mission got canc
Liam had introduced Jake to Lily as one of their new contractors. Often, Jake traveled to other cities to make proposals, hoping to get another project for the company. That was why he was in Lockwood. "Lily, my job here will be extended for another week," Jake revealed. "But I'll see you after th
"You know what, Lucas? You are insane!" Lily yelled, pulling her arm away from him. She did it so forcefully that the necklace around Lucas' neck bounced to reveal that golden tag with her name carved on it. Instantly, Lily stilled. Her heart skipped a beat while her eyes were glued to the pendant
"He is an important person who needs protection. It will be your primary responsibility to oversee his security," the major loudly said to Lily while they were on a military helicopter, flying ten thousand feet above the ground. This was one of those odd assignments. When Lily arrived at the mil
"Somebody has guilt written all over their face," Lily softly commented, seeing her oldest brother, Liam Wright, in the dining area of their home early that morning. If anyone knew about the arrival of one Lucas Thompson, her brother would be it. After all, Liam previously managed the joint business
“Lily? My favorite daughter in the world is back!” Lily’s mother, Scarlett, exclaimed. Lily could not help but roll her eyes at her mother’s remark. She responded, “Mom, you can’t have a favorite daughter. I am your only daughter!” Scarlett laughed. Lily’s father, Kaleb, who was sipping tea in th
Of course, what did she expect? He left her without saying anything. So now, he was practically denying their past relationship by pretending not to know her! The truth was, it stung a little. When he disappeared, Lily cried an ocean for him, yet this was how he treated her now? Then again, Lily s
