Tobias unexpectedly collapsed.Lucy screamed. Her heart stopped when Tobias collapsed as she frantically shook his unconscious body. She screamed. "Darling, what the matter? Wake up!" Her agonizing cries had attracted a crowd. Thankfully, they'd worn face masks, so the crowd did not recognize who they were. A kind passerby said, "Someone had collapsed. Quick, call an ambulance!"Lucy's eye twitched. At that moment, she felt something terrible was about to happen. She felt as if her world was about to fall apart.Lucy wailed and asked, "Darling, how could you collapse? What happened to you?" She felt helpless, like an abandoned child.The onlookers surrounding her couldn't bear the sadness. Someone comforted her, saying, "Don't cry, dear. The ambulance will be here soon."However, Lucy couldn't hear a word they said. She was utterly rattled at the moment. Then, she slowly regained her senses when she heard the ambulance drawing closer. She practically screamed, "Please save h

After the doctor's diagnosis, Tobias had yet to wake up. Lucy went to settle the hospital admission procedures. Tobias was unconscious on the bed, and Lucy stayed with him to care for him.She wiped his body with warm water and changed him into a hospital gown. She was anxious when she noticed he was still unconscious and went to ask the doctor about his condition. After the doctor said there was nothing to worry about, she finally relaxed and slept beside Tobias.Lucy didn't manage to sleep the whole night. She stayed by Tobias' side and checked on him occasionally. Then, she decided she would take extra good care of him. She couldn't believe she'd been oblivious to the fact that he'd been suffering from headaches and dizziness thanks to a contusion for a while.Faith texted her, asking, "Lucy, are you done with your thesis? There is only half an hour left before the deadline."Then, Lucy only recalled that she'd promised Faith that she would submit her thesis before the start

In modern society, any trending news could be positive or negative in nature. Tobias frowned at Finn's explanation and said, "What blasphemous or morally questionable thing did she write that it was blown up so much? If this is the case, revoke her rights to participate and ensure there is never going to be a place for her in the medical field."Lucy instinctively quirked her eyebrow.He may not have put the call on speaker, but the car was so quiet that Lucy had been able to hear the conversation. She was surprised that her thesis was trending. As she wondered what was so great about it, she heard Tobias' questioning tone.She snorted lightly, glared at Tobias, and pouted as she stared outside the window.Tobias was confused and wondered why she was angry.Finn said, "Mr. Ripley, she didn't write anything questionable. She wrote a thesis on medications to treat late-stage cancer, which became a trending topic because of its popularity. Now, the people are split into two camps

Tobias turned around and saw Lucy on the phone. He asked softly, "Who are you talking to, babe?"Lucy pointed at her phone and responded softly, "I'm on the phone with Mr. Jones. You should head back first."Tobias nodded. "Go over to the garden and sit there. You'll tire yourself if you keep standing."Lucy smiled slightly and did what he'd said. Tobias turned around and went back to the room to get changed."Lucy!" Benedict sounded particularly excited over the phone. "Are you willing to take over my position as the leader of the sect?"Lucy nodded solemnly and said, "I am, Mr. Jones!"Benedict responded in a slightly shaky voice, "This is fantastic. I can die with no regrets if you take over the sect!"Lucy asked, "Why do you have to bring up death out of nowhere, Mr. Jones?"Benedict asked, "When are you coming back? We have to hold the succession ceremony."Lucy thought about it for a brief moment and said, "I'm coming today. There's something important I have to discuss

Anna asked, "What are you going to do about this, Joaquin?"Joaquin responded mysteriously, "I'm going to make Ripley Group's properties mine one way or the other. It doesn't matter if he's a Ripley or not. He can't escape his fate of becoming a down-and-out."Anna exchanged a grin with Joaquin. Her eyes were laced with greed and dark desire.…Tobias' private plane touched down at the small town at 11:00 am. The place was some ways away from the mountain. He and Lucy took a stroll on the streets. Tobias used to live in the big city, so he was amazed by everything he saw there. He walked side by side with Lucy while he held her hand. He said, "I didn't think the people here would be this friendly and welcoming."Lucy responded, "Yeah. Folks in towns are very welcoming, unlike the people in the big cities, who are unfeeling and mean."Tobias asked, "Is your matter urgent?"Lucy shook her head. "Not at all."Tobias asked again, "If that's the case, why don't we walk around fi

Lucy looked at Tobias in alarm. He was still sleeping. So, she tiptoed to the hallway and continued to talk on the phone. Instead of answering Billy, she popped a question at him."What do you think a doctor's duty is, Billy?" Billy responded without any hesitation, "Treat and save people."Lucy asked again, "Do you think it's a good thing if there's a medication that could save people from the torment their conditions bring them?"Billy paused briefly and said, "Yeah."Lucy said, "Attaboy. Although Zenith Elixir is the top secret in our sect, it does way more than cure cancer. Won't it be a waste if we don't put such a wonderful medication on shelves?"Lucy paused briefly and continued, "More to the point, the Zenith Elixir could be lost to the world if someone doesn't pass it down in the future. No one would know that our sect has such a wonderful medication. Won't that be more heartbreaking and pitiful?"Billy remained quiet for a long time. Then, he said, "You might be righ

Tobias fixed his eyes on Lucy. His gaze was so sharp that it looked like he was about to devour her. He snorted coldly, feeling sorry for himself. How dare she say that he was a simpleton? It looked like he'd have to teach her a lesson. Just as he was figuring out a way to make Lucy yield to him, the vendor said, "There you go, guys. Two fondant figures.""Thank you." Lucy took them and checked them out. The vendor probably had some experience in art. Although it was a simple sculpture, she could still make out her and Tobias' features in the fondant figures."I didn't think he would be able to make the fondant look so much like us, darling." Lucy showed them to Tobias. She asked, "Which one are you going to have?"Tobias' lips curled into a wicked grin. "You."Lucy was at a loss for words. She saw the menacing look in his eyes and knew that he was mad at her for calling him a simpleton. What a petty man!She pouted and said, "Nuh-uh. You're eating your own fondant figure." Th

Lucy and Tobias finished their meal in town and hired someone to take them to the mountain in a tricycle. It was his first time riding one, and he found it kind of cool.Not long after, they arrived at their destination. Both of them got off the tricycle, and Lucy saw a figure far away. She waved and yelled, "Mr. Jones!"Benedict heard Lucy's voice and walked over. He saw Tobias, who was standing next to her, and scanned him from head to toe. The latter was dressed in a suit and looked exceptionally stunning. His demeanor also demonstrated grace and elegance. What was more, he exuded an overpowering sense of superiority. It was hard not to both respect and fear him. Benedict knew the answer to his question, but he asked it nonetheless, "Who might this be?"Lucy responded, "Allow me to introduce him, Mr. Jones. He is my husband, Tobias Ripley." She couldn't tell if Benedict was satisfied with Tobias. All he did was stare at Tobias arrogantly. Tobias bowed slightly and said, "Hi
