Molly listened, but she did not respond. That was the moment she knew why Grandpa Dave was so tired last night.Needless to say, the May family got together in the hospital and had a fight.She recalled that Grandpa Dave did not mention anything to her last night and immediately knew that he had defended her name. It made her heart melt.In Lara's hospital ward--The May family had gathered there because of Lara, and while everyone was worried about her condition, Lara started to whine and kick up a fuss."I'm only like this because of that witch, Molly May!"It's all her fault! If I had known that this day would come, I'd have killed her. This is all her fault, that useless daughter! If God is hearing me, I pray that Molly will perish!"Next to Lara were her husband and her sons, including Brycen.As Lara passed out and got sent to the emergency room last night, Brycen still went to visit her in his wheelchair, despite how disappointed he was in her.When he saw his mother cu
Benjamin was not scaring them. As a doctor, even if he was upset with Lara and the May family, he was an ethical doctor.When Benjamin was done with his announcement, everyone in the ward fell silent.'If the success rate is that low, doesn't that mean that Lara would...'Diana immediately stopped the thought in her head and walked up to Benjamin worriedly."Please, Dr. Forts, you have to save my mother!" Diana begged with a sincere face.'Lara can't die now. What's going to happen to me if she does?'She did not want to live a poor life with the Grant family."Please think of a way. We'll do it no matter how much it costs." Nathan looked at his mother and sighed before continuing to Benjamin. "Mr. Forts, you're a highly-skilled doctor. You should be able to help my mother."He refused to believe that Benjamin, the elite, had no solution for this matter.However, Benjamin seemed to have guessed his thoughts and cut to the chase. "By thirty percent, I mean if I were the one who
Russell thought, 'How would the May family react if they realized that Dr. Joye was Molly, the person that they hated the most?'The May family started to pull themselves back to reality after Benjamin left. They stopped thinking about Benjamin's words and started to throw the hope of treating Lara onto Brycen.That was because Brycen was the only one who met Joye."Brycen, is Dr. Joye really that weird of a person?" Walter was pissed at Brycen for saying the things he said earlier, but he did not say it in a situation like this.He was also angry at Dr. Joye, the doctor that he had never met before. 'Isn't it a doctor's job to save the ill?'Diana saw that Brycen was quiet, so she said to everyone, "It's alright, every skilled person has a weird side to them. If Dr. Joye doesn't want to help mom out, I will beg her, even if I had to kneel down before that doctor, who is probably not that heartless."After all the incidents before, Brycen was repelled by Diana as he knew that she
"The hospital ran a check-up for her and found out that her heart is weak, and she is in need of a heart transplant. I can only achieve a thirty percent success rate, but you..." Benjamin paused before he continued."You can reach seventy percent."Molly was silent for a long time on the other end of the phone.Benjamin sighed and said, "Molly, you can make your own decision about this. Even if you don't do it, no one will blame you. Don't be too hard on yourself."Molly listened quietly and answered, "Got it."She was extremely calm as it only felt like she was listening to a stranger's condition.In the night, Molly could not sleep after she had tucked in the triplets.She tossed and turned on her bed for a few hours before she went down to grab a bottle of wine. She then headed out to the pavilion in her backyard with the bottle in hand and sat down.The night was dark, and the wind was chillingly piercing.She had a jacket on her as if she could not feel the cold. She then
Molly felt slightly better after pouring everything out to Sean.She took a deep breath along with another sip of wine. "She treats me like that, but I'm still hesitating now. Aren't I pathetic?" she said slowly.She found it laughable, though she did not know what he was thinking.The May family was heartless toward her, and she was something insignificant to them, something they could throw away when they did not want her anymore.Her existence was not even on the same level as Diana, a person who was totally unrelated to them.'Why? Being swapped at birth was not my mistake. I am the one who should be sadder than anyone.'The May family never liked her and did not want to take her in as their own. Even her mother, Lara, would always belittle and accuse her.Was Molly unbothered by those?No, she was probably bothered by it.For that exact reason, Molly still shouldered everything and fought against them.'But Lara's days are numbered...'When Molly thought about that, she
Though Molly said that, she still started to feel dizzy. After all, she did not drink at all last time. It was impossible for her to start drinking heavily.Molly stood up and frowned as she felt really light-headed and lost her balance. She could not stand right, and her body uncontrollably fell to the side.'At the end of the day, she is still slightly drunk.'Sean thought as he stretched out his arm to pull her in, hoping for her to keep her balance. However, his motion had pulled Molly's soft body as she fell gently into his arms."Ah..."Molly could not help but yelp as she was sitting in Sean's arms at the very next second. She was stunned, and her mind went blank. She immediately woke up and gaped slightly, surprised.They were an inch away from each other, and her breath was falling on Sean's collarbone, just like a soft feather. It danced around his heart as he took in the scent of the wine from her lips. Even though he did not consume a drop of alcohol, he wanted to be
Molly woke up and lay down on her bed, but she still looked stern.'How embarrassing! Why do I hug him whenever I'm drunk?!''Most importantly, I sat on his thighs...'Molly could not help but think back about that affectionate scene in the dark night last night.During that time, she still subconsciously pulled closer to him. And now, it was making Molly crazy.Instantly, she wanted to die. She covered her face with her hands, and she only got up after some time, and the redness in her ears was barely visible already.Downstairs.Grandpa Dave looked at her and shook his head. "You don't listen to me anymore. You didn't even want to get off of him."He then teased his granddaughter as he mumbled, "Does she want to drink or..."Molly could not take it and immediately blushed as she interrupted him, "It's not what it looked like, grandpa."She went up to him and continued, "That was really an accident!"Grandpa Dave looked at his delicate daughter, and his eyes were filled wit
Nathan's gaze was stunned, and his emotions set off inside of him. He looked surprised, and he was speechless.Nathan kept his silence for quite some time. He just froze and sat there as if he was thinking about something. He only accepted the truth after a while, and he wanted to speak again.It seemed like Brycen could predict what he wanted to say. He looked up to Nathan before saying flatly, "Are you still expecting Molly to save her? Why would she even want to do that?"Brycen lifted his brows as he made a sound through his nose."Hm?"Nathan was at a loss for words. He struggled to speak, but he said anyway, "That's her mom.""Oh," Brycen said as his gaze became indifferent. His presence felt more powerful as he asked Nathan coldly, "Does mom think the same? Has she ever raised her or treated her nicely?"Nathan bent his head down and did not dare to make eye contact after how Brycen mocked and questioned him."She called her an ungrateful wretch, and she even said that t
Chapter 1882Chester thought this was a good idea. After deliberation, he said, "Then, let's send some people over from the Dark Group."The Grandset had eight groups on the surface, but in reality, there was a secret Dark Group.The Dark Group's members were trained by Chester. Almost all of them were experts in ancient martial arts.Moreover, they were good at scouting, tracking, and counter-tracking, far more capable than the five Asura Kings.Sean looked at him and said, "That's exactly what I want to do. They're the only ones capable of this mission. Ordinary people can't accomplish it."Chester nodded. "Got it. I'll arrange it as soon as possible. I hope things will turn out well. "Sean nodded. They chatted for a while longer before Chester left.In the evening, Sean returned to his place, and Molly was still awake.She had already taken a shower and was leaning against the bedhead, reading a book about ancient medical techniques.Sean casually put his jacket aside, wa
Chapter 1881Chester left with Sean's orders and quickly told everyone.However, despite the advance notice, some of the family heads in several unmanaged districts were still missing for the next two days.The forces under the Martial Art Union also suffered from the impact.Sean sensed that something was wrong.People were missing in the Martial Art Union and the unmanaged areas, but the Grandset was fine.It was definitely not a good sign.Sean quickly called an emergency meeting.The next morning, all the hall masters gathered in the conference room of the temporary base.Everyone was seated at the large round table.Sean was the last to come in. Everyone stood up and respectfully greeted him. "Master."Sean nodded lightly in response.After taking the seat of honor, he got straight to the point and said, "I presume you know why you are summoned here. Many family heads have disappeared recently, which has caused panic among the people."Only we are left unharmed."S
Chapter 1880Mr. Ballard sighed resignedly, “We have no other choices now. The Martial Art competition will be held in two days. Hope nothing else will happen.”“Although we haven’t gotten any news from the Martial Art Union, we should be prepared for attacks and continue to prepare the medicine.”Molly also felt disturbed. The situation was still uncertain, and they couldn’t slack off.If the Martial Art Union attacked them in advance and they hadn’t been prepared, they would be in danger.“I think so. Now that it’s true, we’d better return to the hospital. The hospital must be in chaos. Molly...”Mr. Ballard looked at Sean and Molly worriedly.Molly was afraid that Sean would disagree and said immediately, “I would like to return to the hospital with you.”Sean nodded, “Remember to take a rest when you’re tired. I will ask the driver to drive you to the hospital.”The next day, the Martial Art Union made an announcement as expected.The Martial Art Union: [Recently, many he
Chapter 1879Sean ordered immediately, "Arrange more people to look for them, while secretly protecting the remaining clan leaders. Don't act rashly and alarm the enemy, so as not to raise new issues.""Moreover, send some people to look into the matter secretly, and keep a close watch on the Martial Art Union."Tony nodded, "Okay, Mr. Anderson. I'll do it right away."After finishing his words, he left hurriedly.Looking at the partial information Tony had previously compiled about clan leaders' disappearance, Sean pinched his brow. Sean mused, feeling that this matter wasn't simple.A few moments later, the office door was knocked again, "Sean, may I come in?"Molly's voice came outside the door.Hearing this, Sean adjusted his expression and got up to open the door.He gently took Molly's hand and led her into his office to sit down, "Why are you guys here at this hour? Are you not feeling well?"He asked Molly softly, smoothing her hair."No, I'm fine. It's just that Mr.
Chapter 1878Sean looked at the woman in his arms with tender eyes.He wiped the water droplets off the corners of Molly's mouth and asked, "Do you want to sleep for a while? I'll wake you up when the meal is ready."Molly didn't refuse.Unwilling to part with her, the three kids had talked to her till late hours last night.And she had to get up early this morning to catch the plane. She was indeed a little tired.Now that she had nothing to do, she could take a rest and refresh herself.Soon, Molly went to bed and slept.Sean watched over her.Later, the maid got the meal ready, and he woke up Molly.The next morning, Molly woke up to find the man beside her was gone.A note was left on the bedside table. "Don't forget to have breakfast. I have something to do and will come back tonight."She looked at the note and felt anxious.It seemed that she too had to quickly enter working mode. After breakfast, Molly quickly tidied up and went straight to the hospital.What ha
Chapter 1877Mr. Ballard smiled happily, “OK. I will take you there personally!”After they chatted for a while, Molly went to visit the hospital. Then she went to the villa to take a rest with Sean.The villa was close to the hospital. Before they went there, Sean arranged for someone to buy it.Sean’s purpose was to let Molly go to the hospital and back conveniently.After Sean carried the luggage into the villa, he said to Molly who sat on the couch, “Have a look at the villa. Tell me if you lack anything. I will buy them for you.”Molly looked around and shook her head, “Everything is available here. If I need anything else, I will tell you.”Sean smiled, put down the luggage, poured a cup of water for her, and asked with concern, “Are you tired?”Molly replied honestly, “Only my legs ache.”Hearing that, he sat beside her immediately and massaged her legs gently.Seeing that he was so considerate, she smiled and felt happy.A few minutes later, Molly felt much better an
Chapter 1876Mr. Ballard felt proud of himself, seeing the surprised expressions on Molly's and Sean's faces."What do you think of the temporary medical base we set up?" he asked, fixing his eyes on Sean.Sean, who understood what the old man meant, smiled in response. "Very good. Even better than I expected."As they chatted, they walked into the base."Mr. Ballard."Every person in a white coat greeted Mr. Ballard with respect.And they were amazed by the presence of Molly and Sean.The two were outstanding in appearance and temperament.Mr. Ballard nodded in response to the greetings while introducing the layout of the base to Molly and Sean.Molly looked around and asked curiously, "Are these people all doctors?"Given Mr. Ballard and Logan's strength, she thought that they could gather dozens of people at most.After all, this matter was full of danger.But those in front of her probably numbered in the hundreds, even thousands.Seeing an impressed Molly, Mr. Ballar
Chapter 1875The next day, Molly recuperated in the bedroom.Sean was worried about her and specially worked in the bedroom.The three kids were also there.They joked or told interesting things from time to time. Molly was amused by them and wore a smile on her face all the time.Molly had persuaded Sean and thus was in a good mood.Within two days, she looked much better.Mr. Ballard, Logan, and the others were relieved and could go to do logistic work at ease.On the day when they set off, Molly saw them off at the door.She looked at them and reminded them carefully, “Please pay attention to your safety. If anything happens, contact us immediately.”Mr. Ballard urged Molly to return to the room, “I see. Don’t worry. You can return to your room and take a rest now. You haven’t totally recovered yet.”Logan and Lesley nodded and echoed, “Uncle Jordan is right. We will take care of Uncle Jordan.”Yolanda said, “Don’t worry. You will go to find us with Mr. Atherton soon.”
Chapter 1874The next morning, bright sunlight streamed in through the window and woke Molly up. She saw three little ones guarding her, staring at her with an intense gaze."Mommy, you're awake," they exclaimed happily."How do you feel, Mommy? Is there anywhere uncomfortable?"Molly's heart warmed at their care and she smiled gently. She raised her hand and rubbed their heads lightly, saying softly, "I'm fine. You don't need to worry."Sitting beside her, Sean watched the interaction between Molly and the children with tender eyes. He instructed the little ones, "You stay here with Mommy. I'll go get Jordan to check on her and have breakfast delivered.""Daddy, go ahead," the little ones replied, waving their hands without looking back.Sean left with a smile, and he soon returned with Jordan and Logan. Upon seeing Molly leaning against the bed, Brycen squeezed through the crowd to come to her side."Molly, it seems you are fine now!" he exclaimed with concern, his dark
