Even though she was just his son's secretary, everybody knew that the person backing her up was a good friend of Ricky's father. So, none of them dared to mistreat her. "It's just a token of appreciation," Joelle replied with a warm smile. She did not take the initiative to approach Sean even though she was interested in him because she knew that Sean would hate her for doing so. She passed the gift to the butler. Then, she changed into a new pair of slippers and went into the house.She saw Sean as soon as she stepped into the house. She greeted him after getting closer to him, "Mr. Sean, you wouldn't mind me having a free meal here, right?"Sean's expression did not change one bit. He looked as nonchalant as he would be in the office. It seemed like Joelle was nothing but a pile of documents on his office desk.He did not put any personal feelings into it while dealing with either of them."That's a question for the people preparing the meal, not me." Sean threw her a glance
Joelle frowned as she could not stop thinking about what Sean had said.'Sharon…'Another woman. 'And, she has been here too. 'I guess she's pretty close with Sean's parents then, right?'Her curiosity took her over as she asked Alice, "Aunty, who's Sharon?"Alice felt a little awkward as she forcefully lifted the edge of her mouth. She recollected herself and said, "Sharon Newman used to treat me, and her family has some business ties with the Anderson Cooperation too. So, we're kind of friends with each other, and she would pay us a visit occasionally. However, I heard that something happened in her family, so she stopped coming here.""I see."Joelle pretended as if she did not care, but she opened her mouth again as if she wanted to ask another question. However, she was interrupted by Alice. "Here, Joelle. Have some more."I can't let you go home hungry after inviting you for a meal with us."Joelle changed her mind and swallowed her curiosity after seeing how kind A
Alex guessed that was what happened, so he did not tell anyone, including Ben and Claudia about what he saw that night.Molly did not know what Alex was thinking as she held his hand and said with a smile, "I'm fine."Molly thought that she would feel a lot better after coming home to the triplets.However, she only realized that she was distracted again because of Sean after staying in the room for a while. The lights in the room were not switched on, and the dark environment was making it hard for her to pull herself together.She dragged herself to the bed and buried her head in the sheets, feeling annoyed.'Why do I feel so irritated?'She had never felt this distraught before.Molly clearly had no idea what was happening to her because she was rather inexperienced in love.Besides, she was a doctor, and she should always be calm and rational… Getting jealous was just not her thing. The triplets asked her to play puzzles with them before she could spend more time in th
'Did something happen?'The triplets looked at each other, and none of them knew what happened.They asked curiously, "Mommy, what's wrong?'"Nothing," Molly answered them automatically. She looked at the messed-up puzzle in front of her and said while smiling, "It's been too long since I played the puzzle. I was annoyed that I couldn't finish it." Sean did not stay in the office after work, and he went home right away. He already knew that Molly was discharged when he was still in the car.Tony was aware of it too. However, he knew that his boss was not a romantic person. An idea popped into his head, and he smiled before suggesting to the man sitting in the backseat, "Boss, do you want to buy a bouquet of flowers for Dr. May? To congratulate her on her discharge."'Boss likes Ms. May so much. He probably won't say no, right?'"Every woman likes to receive flowers. I'm sure that Dr. May will be delighted." He continued.Sean looked out the window as he was a little tempted to
Molly was sitting on the sofa silently under the dim lights as if she was waiting for him to come home…Sean felt a surge of warmth in his heart.Molly lifted her head after hearing some noises coming from the entrance, and she saw Sean walking in. Then, she flatly said, "You're back."Sean approached Molly while holding the bouquet of roses he bought. The red roses looked so striking that it was very attractive. However, Molly shifted her gaze without even looking at them.She stood up and walked right back to the room. "Let's begin the treatment now that you're back. I need to go home early to get some rest later."'It won't exist if I don't look at it, and I can forget about him if I don't interact with him.'Molly thought to herself.Sean looked at Molly's back and he immediately gave up the idea of giving her the flowers. "Boss?" Even Tony, who was standing behind him, had no idea what was happening. 'Why do I feel like something's wrong with Dr. May today?'"You can
As for herself and Sean, Molly figured that it was best for them to just share a doctor-and-patient relationship. Loving Sean had made Molly lose her self-confidence.The treatment was done, and Molly was about to turn and leave.But, Sean immediately grabbed her hand.When Sean's warmth had reached Molly, she wanted to swing his hand away. However, Sean seemed to have expected it, so he grabbed her hand harder this time."Let go of me," Molly said."No." Sean squeezed her hand even tighter.Molly struggled, but it was to no avail. She then started to get angry. "You…""Tell me, what's wrong? Molly, are there still secrets between us?" He had never expected their relationship to turn out like this. He did not even have the chance to say what he wanted to say.This feeling was making him panic.He was not going to let go of Molly's hand as he felt as though he would never be able to reach her if he let go of her at that time.Molly attempted to pull her hand back a few times
However, Molly forgot that Sean was still holding her hand. As soon as she moved, Sean pulled her back to him.Molly was not prepared. After letting out a short yelp, she found herself sitting on Sean's lap."The things you said… Are they true?" Sean did not hold her hand anymore. Instead, he was holding her waist as he wrapped her in his arms.Being at such a close distance, both of them could smell each other's scent with every breath. Molly was getting dizzy as Sean's cool woody scent lingered in her nose."Y-Yes." She did not know what she was saying anymore. But, she was clear that her heart was beating for this man.Under Sean's gaze, Molly had almost lost all her rationality. She felt her body warming up, just like her face. All she wanted to do was hide.As expected, her voice was as soft as a mouse when she spoke."Let go of me…" Molly did not sound cold anymore. Additionally, she even talked like she was reluctant.She sounded so beautiful that Sean wanted to devour h
Molly was still in disbelief when she went to bed as it felt like a dream.She was actually together with Sean… Most importantly, he liked her back.Molly could not help but smile and was so happy that she could not sleep.The next day, Sean came to her house to have breakfast.As soon as he sat next to Molly, he looked at her with a smiling face and gently said, "Good morning.""Morning…" Molly smiled.The sweet atmosphere was obvious even when they were separated by the table.Everyone could tell that something was different about them.Tony rubbed his eyes as he could not believe it.He did not expect his boss to be a couple with Molly just like that!'Ah, no. I should call her Mrs. Anderson now, right?'Tony stood behind Sean as he prayed for Sean to remember his effort and hard work all this time.It was best if his effort could be reflected by an increase in his year-end bonus.Grandpa Dave squinted as he smiled. His eyes were darting between Sean and Molly.Grandpa
