"Go meet Dr. May. Tell her that she needs to finish what she has started because she took the job. One more thing, let her know I'll take care of what happened today. Ask her not to be bothered about it.""Right away!" Tony rushed over next door. Back then, he had spent a long time persuading Molly to treat his boss's condition. Hence, he was the last one who wanted to see his efforts go down the drain!'No way our chef knows how to brew medicine. Without Ms. May treating my boss in person, it'll take him a long time to recover. There's nothing good about this!'All this because of Abigail Nolan!'Tony forced a servile smile and did not move an inch away from Molly. He explained that what had happened earlier was an accident and said Sean would take care of everything about Alice and Abigail. Most importantly, Sean promised that it would never happen again.Tony talked on and on. At the same time, he was looking at the triplets, who let him in just now, with grateful eyes. He was
Sean's father, Ricky Anderson, did not look happy about what Sean had done either. He felt his son had gone too far.When Alice was about to make the phone call, Ricky suddenly grabbed her hand. "Tsk. Drop it. Don't push Sean too hard. He did that to send us a message. He's giving us a piece of his mind!"Although Ricky was in a tight spot, his mind remained clear and rational. Unlike last time, he directly talked his wife out of doing what she had wanted. 'I hesitated when I should've stopped her in the afternoon. All because of that, we left Sean no choice. We're family. I don't want things to get ugly.'Alice shot her husband a glare. But she calmed herself down the moment she saw his face. When she finally put down her phone, she suddenly realized she was at her wit's end. She felt nothing but a headache now.In the meantime--Sean did not feel bothered by his own decision at all, even though it would put his family and the Nolan family in turmoil. Instead, he was in his study
Benjamin Forts did not expect to see Molly today. He was actually planning to meet her.Molly, on the other hand, brushed Benjamin's compliment aside with a dismissive wave. She was thinking that she should have just left everything to him since he was here.When the two exited the ward and Molly was about to leave the hospital, Benjamin suddenly fished something out of his pocket and handed it to her. "When my grandfather knew I'd to stay here for my career, he wanted me to meet his friends and acquaintances so they'd know my face," he said resignedly.It was an invitation card with gold lettering with a pleasant-to-touch surface. On the bottom left, there was a family name, "Forts," written. Molly had heard about this family before.The Forts family was a prominent family in Northfolk. Benjamin, the second son of the family, had earned his fame in the medical field despite being young, so his family was very proud of him.Molly thought, 'His grandfather is willing to pave the wa
Molly put down the plate. She wanted to walk away. Knowing that her encounter with Abigail would be unpleasantly awkward, she wanted to avoid Abigail and her gang.Unfortunately, Abigail spotted Molly. She picked up her skirt while sauntering toward Molly. "Hi, Ms. May," she greeted Molly with grace.The ladies exchanged looks. They thought Molly was Abigail's friend, and since they were here to socialize on behalf of their families, they followed Molly. One of them asked, "Abigail, you know this lady?"The ladies were checking Molly out. Molly was donned in a long black dress, revealing her fair skin over her beautiful collarbone. Despite her aloofness, they could not take their eyes off her beauty. Assuming that abundant efforts must have been invested to nurture a beauty as outstanding as Molly, the ladies thought she was an heiress from one of the prominent families.Abigail acted as if nothing had happened. She put on a friendly façade when she introduced Molly to the ladies.
The way Benjamin said it made it sound like he was someone very close to Molly. His attitude gave Sean an indescribable irritation.Sean slightly pressed his lips. He remained calm as he said, "That won't be necessary. It's my pleasure to take care of them since I've been eating the meals she cooks every day."His remarks were an innuendo that would leave ample room for interpretation.Without others noticing, Benjamin's hand by his side clenched into a fist. At that moment, it was as if the world had fallen silent, and gun smoke had filled the air between them.Molly had no idea about the tussle between Sean and Benjamin. She was busy dealing with Abigail.'Sean canceled the deal with Noland Group to avoid rumors about the marriage alliance between him and Abigail. By rights, given Abigail's character, she should resent me. But tonight, when we met again, she acted like nothing had happened. What is she up to?' Molly did not know Abigail well enough to figure out her motive.As
"Of course we know each other. We've known each other for a while." As usual, Benjamin wanted to make Molly look good. Although he had no idea who Abigail was, there was no need to hesitate to protect the one he loved.Molly had a vague smirk on her face while she was looking at Abigail, who had said wanting to introduce Molly to Benjamin.Abigail was utterly embarrassed. Her facial expression changed several times. However, in the end, she gave it a laugh. She sounded regretful and thankful as she said, "Dr. May, you should've told me earlier, so I wouldn't have puffed myself up saying boastful things like I want to introduce Mr. Forts to you." She put on a faint smile, looking decent, and there was a hint of feminine shyness in her tone.Molly averted her gaze without moving. 'This woman is not as simple as I thought. She has some tricks up her sleeves. She is pretty skilled at freeing herself of awkward situations. Nobody will criticize her when she put it that way.'However, Mo
The wind was as cool as water at night. Molly and Benjamin were walking away from the banquet, and the noise gradually faded."What did she say to you, and who was she? Why do I have the impression that you two aren't getting along?" Benjamin inquired.Molly did not take Abigail seriously, and when Benjamin inquired, she simply informed him casually."I'm not sure. When she saw me, she wanted to introduce me to a job, and then she wanted to introduce me to you, the genius doctor. I'm sure she had her own thoughts on people and things." Molly did not say anything about what Abigail had done to her before, and Benjamin just frowned."I can't believe she's so cunning. You should keep your distance from her," said Benjamin. He meant that he was concerned that Molly would suffer due to that scheming lady.Molly, on the other hand, was unconcerned.After a brief conversation, Benjamin excused himself because he could not stay any longer and needed to entertain other guests.Molly rema
Sean smiled and wondered, 'Which part of us looks engaged?'Sean elaborated, "Mr. Lane, I believe you have misunderstood. I'm not engaged, and this lady is not who you think she is. She's just a friend."Sean said it bluntly, and the area fell silent for a moment.Mr. Lane could not really help but feel embarrassed. He simply wanted to come over and talk. He said that because they were so well-matched and close.Mr. Lane smiled as he stretched out his hand, holding the wine, and said, "Then I'll drink a glass of wine to compensate Mr. Anderson's friend for my embarrassment."Molly realized Mr. Lane toasting the wine glass in front of her. It was obviously inappropriate for her to refuse because Mr. Lane was older than her and an elder."It's okay," Molly said softly, sipping her wine glass.Never slap the smiler, as the saying goes."Then I'll go in first. Mr. Anderson, we'll talk again later." Mr. Lane stated. He waved his hand and walked away.Molly frowned lightly as she wa
