Evan smiled, seeing the honeymoon photos Sean had sent him. He read his friend's text: [Thank you, man. We love it!] He had gifted Sean a honeymoon package at the Caribean Sales. That was why Sean made an effort to send him pictures as gratitude. The man texted back, saying: [Enjoy you two.] The m
Evan's son was awake again! "Why is he awake?" Shantelle asked. Evan had carried Marcus, mildly swaying him to sleep. He turned to Shantelle, admitting, "I - I. I looked him in the eye." "Oh, Evan. You know this already. Never look at a sleepy baby in the eye!" Shantelle reminded. Evan mouthed
"Pediatric surgery? But didn't you study everything, though?" Evan asked Shantelle after learning she wanted to do a fellowship with a Pedia Cardio-surgeon. "I did, but I mostly trained with surgeons who operate on adults," Shantelle replied. "So when Doctor Patel proposed it, I agreed. There are o
Sean chuckled, saying, "I hope so, but we are not rushing. Not like you and Shanty." "We weren't planning on rushing. I'm just too rich. I need more kids," Evan said before smirking. Everyone laughed at his suggestion, including two other couples who came for their consultation. Shantelle punched
"Wow, she is just so beautiful! This time, she has Keith's features," Shantelle said, pinching Karise's new baby girl. "I'm glad I came here." "I'm glad you did," Karise said the same. "I miss you and everybody." Shantelle smiled at her friend, saying, "We talk a lot, but yes, I miss you too. We h
"I love you for that - for your sacrifices and selflessness," Keith pointed out. "It's because I love you. Your family is mine too. And your troubles are mine. Your pain is also mine to bear. You don't need to thank me, but love me as I love you," Karise replied. Karise and Keith slept with hea
Keith closed his eyes, sensing his friend's warm embrace. His voice was weak as he said, "Thanks, Evan, for coming." "Of course, man! What kind of a friend would I be if I didn't come here," Evan said. He patted Keith's back, proposing, "Shanty and I are here for you." The next to embrace Keith wa
"To my friends and relatives whose parents still live, I implore you to love and spend time with your parents because time is too precious to waste it on grudges and misunderstandings. Time can also be like a thief in the night, taking away those moments that should be filled with happy memories," K
"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
