Alex took the chess piece from Grandpa Dave and placed it down incisively.The table was turned around immediately.Sean knew what Molly was trying to do from the beginning, but he kept quiet about it and just watched the game at the side.Molly had been planning for this move all along.She picked the black pieces, whereas Grandpa Dave got the white pieces. She was leading him on slowly and steadily. It felt like Grandpa Dave was a frog that was being boiled slowly by her.Everything would've been over as soon as Grandpa Dave noticed something was not right.However, Alex ruined her plan with just one move when Molly was about to close it out.Sean did not expect that the little guy would be aware of what Molly was doing.He was a little surprised. He looked and Alex and said, "How did you know how to do that?""Why not? I'd usually play this game on my phone." Alex said as he looked calm and justified.Tony was shocked!He was at a loss for words. One needed to be both gre
It was already three in the afternoon after all that talking and laughing.Tony's phone rang!He went to the side after picking it up. He lowered his volume and said a few words before he hung up. "Boss, the result is out."Sean said after hearing him, "Hey, I guess we're probably done here. We're heading back."Tony pushed Sean back to their house after they told Molly and them that they were going to leave. Their teatime ended.Tony told Sean the outcome of the investigation in every detail after they went back, "Boss, you were right. There's something fishy about the fire. The factory said that aging wires caused a short circuit, but it caused the fire. Also, the person who was supposed to be supervising that area was taking a nap, so they couldn't notice the fire on time, and the fire started to spread. However, our men found that isn't the case at all."He paused and continued talking, "In fact, somebody maliciously set fire to the factory. That person is yet to be found out
"Sean," The elegant woman said gently as she looked over at him. A smile flashed across her face as soon as she saw Sean.Sean went forward slowly, and he had a confused look on his face as he asked, "Dad, Mom, when did you guys come back?"Sean's father, Ricky Anderson, was the chairman of the Anderson Cooperation. He went on a vacation overseas with Sean's mother, Alice. It had been a while since the last time Sean saw them."We just came back today. Who would've thought that the first thing we found out after we came back was the fire in the factory? This is a very serious issue, so I came here to know more about it. Is there any casualty?" Ricky said flatly.Sean said concisely, "We're still investigating the specific cause of the fire. Fortunately, nobody was harmed in the fire, but a batch of raw materials was destroyed. I'll take care of it. Don't worry."Alice noticed the dark circles under her son's eyes, and she knew that he had not been sleeping well these days. She fel
Sean's parents looked at each other after Sean said those words unhesitatingly.Ricky shook his head subtly, signaling Alice to stop talking about that topic.He knew his son's character very well. He was a very stubborn person. Nobody could change his mind on the things he decided. Things were only going to turn ugly if they kept arguing about it.Alice could only shut her mouth helplessly and gave up talking about it for the time being.His parents stayed to have dinner with their son.Something came into Alice's mind when they were eating as she asked, "Son, the house next door belongs to you too, right? I saw somebody staying there when I came here today. Why is that?"She was fully aware of that."I sold it," Sean answered her quickly without explaining it to her further.Alice did not continue asking because she knew that her son had been a smart person. Sean was an assertive person. He had got to have his own reasons for doing that.Ricky and Alice then went back after
Compared to how agitated Brycen's assistant was, Molly's reaction was rather indifferent. She walked around the assistant that was in her way and looked at Brycen, who was lying on the bed, as she said flatly, "I need to get you checked first before I can decide on a treatment plan for you. But before doing that, I can't guarantee you anything."Brycen, who looked downhearted, lifted his head immediately and stared at Molly, who was standing not far away, with his bloodshot eyes. He could not suppress his emotions as he questioned her, "Aren't you a famous physician? You can't even guarantee such a small matter?"He could not help but tighten his grip on the blanket as if he thought him waiting for Molly's arrival today would be the last straw. However, his final hope just told him that she could not guarantee his full recovery."Even though I'm a famous physician, I'm also just a human being. I'm not a god. Even God himself wouldn't be able to save you if your legs are in an incura
"Can you be in charge of the preparation and inspection before the surgery?" Molly looked at Caitlyn, who was standing beside her, as she asked her softly.She looked at Brycen's condition roughly just now, and she figured that it was not the right time for her to do anything just yet. Besides, she required the most advanced tools and equipment, and she needed the hospital's help for that.Moreover, she was going to carry out the operation herself. Her routines were naturally going to be different from other physicians since she specialized in practicing traditional medicine. She needed a person that knew her well to help her do that."Okay!"And Caitlyn was her best candidate. Caitlyn responded with a smile on her face.In the evening, Molly saw Grandpa Dave sitting in the living room, looking panicked as soon as she entered the house.Her heart jumped a little, and she changed her shoes quickly."Grandpa, what happened?"Grandpa Dave heard her, and he felt like he finally had
Walter's face, which was always nonchalant, looked a little worried at that moment too.Nathan, who was standing beside him, had his eyebrows locked, and he looked gloomy even though he was never satisfied with his brother. All Brycen cared about was racing, and Nathan had always hoped that he could put his mind to a proper job. However, all his dissatisfaction went out the window when he finally saw Brycen lying on the hospital bed with his own eyes.Worry was the only thing he was feeling.He was his blood brother that he grew up with, after all.Needless to say, it was a great opportunity for Diana to show how much she cared about the May family.She looked extremely sorrowful, as if she would rather be the one getting hurt instead of her brother. She badly wanted the May family to be indebted to her for the rest of their lives.In the entire room, Grandpa Dave was actually the calmest one.Something popped in Lara's mind suddenly as she asked, "Did you come alone?"Grandpa
Brycen was trying to recall his memory. A familiar figure appeared in his head.Joye!But when Dr. Joye came into the ward, she was wearing a mask. He could not see what she looked like at all!Her hair was all tied up, and she was wearing a white robe that was covering her whole body. She even looked a little chubby.But this lady in front of him was so classy and gorgeous. Her hair fell perfectly on her shoulders, and it was almost impossible to let how pretty she looked slip away from one's mind!They were two completely different people.But at the same time, they sounded like the same person!He lifted his gaze. He hesitated again because he felt the differences between those two people were too big.Brycen suppressed his suspicion and hid it away.Perhaps Russell spent too much time together with Brycen. He had almost the same thing going on his mind as Brycen. He was shocked, too, as he looked at Molly uncontrollably a few more times.When Lara saw the person that she
