Days came and went. Lucas had his bad and good days, undergoing chemotherapy, but despite the side effects of the drugs, he withstood it all. The good news was he had not caught any infection during the process. His isolation was perfectly well followed, allowing continuity in his treatment. Wit

Everyone was holding their breath. Nearly two months into isolation, Doctor Patel came in to report the recent blood work done on Lucas. In anticipation of the news, there was complete silence. Doctor Patel announced, "Based on the recent blood test, the new cells are growing! We are on the road
"Please get in touch with Doctor Hale or Doctor Chen. I can't make it," Shantelle informed. "Oh, but Doctor Hale is here, Doctor Shant. He said you'd want to take this patient," the nurse reported. "He is in terrible shape." Shantelle frowned. Her skin formed goosebumps as she asked, "Who is the
The first thing that Evan did was go to the police station. Wendell met him there, and with their family's influence, they got approval from the chief of police to secure documents within Sean's car. Although Sean's BMW was severely hit in the front, most of his belongings in the trunk and back wer
"Hey, don't blame yourself," Wendell said. "It's a big company to manage, especially since you handle a group of companies. After this, you must consider breaking down your companies rather than putting it all on your shoulder." Evan felt his chest congesting. He remarked, "That would have been som

"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.

“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
