Cecilia glared at Kai furiously as all those unbearable memories flooded back. But she quickly suppressed her emotions and forced out a smile as she said, "With my current status, no one cares about how I used to be. What matters to people now is how I can benefit them. With the power I have now, I can change all of Ventropolis."Kai suddenly laughed. He had a disdainful expression as he turned to look at Cecilia. "Do you really think you're all-powerful? Cecilia, whether it's you or Zach, no single individual can control everything. There is always a balance, and this balance can never be disrupted."Cecilia did not take Kai's words seriously. She fiddled with the fallen leaf near her. "Enough. If Zach heard what you just said, he'd just ignore it. I won't listen either."I'm here to tell you that if you want to hide, it's best to stay somewhere I can never hurt you. Of course, don't give me the opportunity to harm you either. Besides Madelyn, you're the first person I'll go after.
Lana said, "Am I really that scary to you?"Kai replied, "I..." As a doctor, he had seen his own share of nude bodies, but he just could not look at Lana's body.Kai had his own reasons, but Lana did not know.His feelings for her started when she married Andrew, and he began plotting to take her away from Andrew. Kai had done everything in his power to ruin Andrew. Later, when Lana mistook Kai for Andrew, and still could not forget Andrew even after being hypnotized, Kai finally realized he had failed in his attempts to win her over.Kai could not face Lana now. Even as a doctor, he was unable to look at Lana when her breast was exposed.Seeing that Kai still had not turned around, Lana cried.He finally turned around after hearing the sobbing behind him. He sat on the bed and comforted Lana, saying, "I'm sorry. I overreacted."Lana wiped away her tears and pushed Kai's hand away. "There's nothing dirty about me that made you keep looking away from me, right? Or is this child n
Kai said, "This bracelet is for Zach, that ungrateful man. If it weren't to make him wake up sooner, I wouldn't have to make up this lie and have her take risks just to send this bracelet to Ventropolis."Lana did not know what happened, and she did not dare to ask further for fear of causing any trouble for Kai. She responded, "Go take a shower and sleep soon. Also, don't disturb the children; they've just fallen asleep."When she saw the child who had been drinking milk had already fallen asleep, Lana pulled up her shirt and handed the child to Kai. Kai then carried the baby and placed the baby in the twin crib nearby.Kai said, "I'll go take a shower now. You should sleep soon."Lana responded, "It's okay, I'll wait for you."Kai stretched his hand to rub her head. "I still need to look at some documents later. You don't have to wait for me, get some rest." He suppressed his emotions, turned around, and walked out of the room. There was a separate room for visitors in the ward
Blake glanced at Liam. "I'm with Liam, and we're heading to the company for work. Do you need something?"Kai replied, "Perfect timing. Both of you go to SereneCare Hospital. I have something that I need your help with. Go there now."Blake responded, "By the way, Dr. Stewart, why couldn't I reach you when I called?"But before she could receive an answer from Kai, he had already ended the call.Blake, frustrated, put away her phone. "Liam, do you have any idea why he wants us?"Liam shook his head. "I'm not sure. Let's go over and see what he needs.""Okay."Coincidentally, both their cars arrived at the entrance of SereneCare Hospital at the same time. Kai got out of his car, and Blake walked up to him. "Dr. Stewart."Kai responded, "Let's talk while we walk."Kai, upon seeing Liam beside Blake, sized him up quietly. However, Liam, avoiding eye contact, seemed to sense that Kai knew something.Blake, who was kept in the dark, could not sense anything unusual about the situa
When Blake, Kai, and Liam were in the elevator inside the hospital, Blake hesitantly said, "Dr. Stewart, don't you need to disguise yourself a bit? What if Cecilia's people recognize you? Won't you get in trouble?""Do you think you're the only one who thought of that?" Kai chuckled. "The moment I stepped into the hospital, the people monitoring us had already called her."Blake, embarrassed, scratched her head. "I see! So, why did you want us here? Is there something important?"Kai casually put his hands in his pockets. "Not really. I just want to bring you two over for a little fun."Blake replied, "What? Dr. Stewart, you can still joke around even at a time like this?"Kai glanced at Liam, seemingly conveying a hidden meaning. Blake sensed something was happening between them, something she was unaware of.After they walked out of the elevator and when the bodyguards saw Kai, they wanted to restrain him, but they seemed to be cautious of someone. None of them stepped forward.
Kai continued saying, "Forget it. You're a cold-hearted person, you'll never understand what I said."He then sat on the edge of the bed and took out the seashell bracelet from his pocket. "I know you can hear everything I'm saying."Zach, do remember this, when you wake up, don't seek revenge on Maddie, but to atone for everything you've done to her."All this time, there's been a barrier between you and her because she thought Ethan was dead and you were connected to it. But remember, she never owed you anything. She has the right to choose who she wants to fall for. But Ethan actually isn't dead, and he's living well."If you continue to be stubborn and refuse to change, you'll lose her forever."This is a bracelet I got from Maddie. Consider it as a memento to help you wake up sooner. If you don't wake up soon, let's see how you'll handle it when she marries Ethan!"Kai stared at Zach's fingers, and for a moment, he noticed Zach's ring finger, which had a ring on, moved. Kai
Cecilia approached Zach and grabbed his hand, intending to rip off the bracelet on his wrist. As soon as she touched it, she came to her senses and stopped herself. She calmly sat beside him, took a picture of the seashell bracelet with her phone, and sent it to an unsaved number on her phone.She texted: [Go and find out the origin of this thing.]After that, she put her phone away and slowly stroked Zach's face. "Zach, I know you can hear me now. Don't worry, once you wake up, it won't be long before Jardin Corporation ceases to exist. You ruined me in the past life. Now, it's your turn to lose everything, and then it'll be easier for me to control you."You value power too much, and that's why you lost the things most important to you."After Blake returned to the company, she sent a message to Kevin: [Dr. Stewart said Mr. Jardin will wake up soon. Are you coming back soon?]Then, the sound of a cup breaking caught Blake's attention. Liam stood up from his seat to pick up the b
Cecilia ended the call as her eyes showed a triumphant expression. She put her legs down and stood up before instructing the bodyguard, "Get ready and prepare for the discharge procedures."The bodyguard replied, "Ms. Samford, the nurse mentioned that Mr. Jardin's wound hasn't fully healed, and he needs more time to rest.""I don't need your meddling advice; I know what to do." Cecilia touched her abdomen and smiled. "I've been busy lately, it's time for me to take a good rest."The bodyguard responded, "Okay."At midnight, Cecilia was sitting in a car with Zach lying beside her. After riding for almost an hour, they arrived at a secluded place. The signal there was unstable, making it challenging for anyone to locate this place.It was quiet. Inside a villa large enough to accommodate over a thousand people, there were hospital-grade medical facilities, with family doctors on standby.Walls surrounded the area, resembling a cage specifically made for Zach.In a massive master b
