Moments later, the store manager and sales team, now beaming with enthusiasm, bowed deeply and personally escorted her to the door. By the time Adora returned home, the sun had already begun to set. Lilian’s expression remained unreadable as she took in her daughter’s appearance. Adora’s hair
Lilian, frantic with worry, hurried after her.With space finally cleared in the cramped room, Theodore forced his way inside."Adora!" His fury ignited at the sight of his disobedient daughter. Without hesitation, he lifted his hand, ready to slap her across the face."Mr. Matthews, don’t—!"Euge
Adora was in the middle of changing her bedsheets when the door suddenly burst open, making her jump slightly.She turned around, her expression calm."Brother, do you need something? Oh, I heard Ruby screaming. What happened?"Peter had stormed in, fully intending to teach his unruly sister a lesso
But Nathan wasn’t afraid to keep teasing. “So, it turns out no one is perfect. You’ve been a top student since school, always ahead of everyone. You chose medicine and were immediately hailed as a prodigy. “Even my dad still talks about you, saying you’re the most talented and hardworking student
Elliot texted, "Whoa! White-Coat Deity has finally shown up! Looks like Madame Lee’s charm is unbeatable!"Mason responded, "I noticed this a long time ago. Out of everyone here, White-Coat Deity only gives Madame Lee the slightest bit of respect."Coach Ryan commented, "They love taking jabs at eac
Adora arched a brow. "Which Miss Shaw?""Who else? Laura Shaw," Mary replied."Laura’s here?" Adora’s face lit up with joy. She immediately got up and headed outside.Laura was her best friend—their bond was stronger than family."Laura!" she called out excitedly when she saw the girl stepping out
Thinking of her son’s future, Lilian’s resolve hardened.If cutting ties with her eldest daughter would bring peace back to their home and secure happy, stable marriages for her other two children—then she felt the sacrifice was justified.…Adora’s head injury still hadn’t fully healed when her ski
Lilian paused, brushing it off casually. "When it comes down to it, a car crash is simply an accident. What more is there to ask?""Not necessarily. My brakes were tampered with. The fact that I’m still alive is nothing short of a miracle.""What are you saying? Someone tried to hurt you?" Lilian’s
"Something like that..." Eugene muttered."I thought Adora didn’t even move back to stay with the Matthews. How could she have possibly done anything to Ruby?"Eugene lifted his eyes and explained, "A while back, she brought home a snake and treated it as a pet. She even named it 'Ruby.'"Louis rais
Eugene grabbed his arm. "Uncle Louis, can you talk to Ruby? She won’t listen to me."Louis looked thoroughly annoyed, his tone sharp with sarcasm. "She’s your woman. If she won’t listen to you, why the hell would she listen to me?""Uncle…"Before they could argue any further, a nurse burst out from
The information between the two of them was exactly the same, like it had been copy-pasted.Even Adora couldn’t help but find it oddly coincidental, a ripple of intrigue stirring in her heart.Louis had indeed just taken a call from Eugene.After Ruby was rushed to the hospital, the doctors conclude
Adora held the phone away from her ear, letting her father’s furious shouting run its course. Once the yelling subsided, she brought it back and said calmly, “What’s done is done. Yelling won’t change that. Where’s my snake?”“The fire department killed it!”“Killed it?” Her eyes widened as fury fl
Elliot: What’s that supposed to mean, White-Coat? Sounds like there’s something we don’t know.Miles: Yeah, I’m picking up on that vibe too. Did you two have a private chat or something?Adora stared at her phone, brows slightly furrowed.How was she supposed to explain this?A while back, she’d mes
In the living room downstairs, the Matthews family was in the middle of discussing how to arrange things for Adora when a sharp scream suddenly rang out from upstairs. The three of them jumped to their feet in shock.Before they could even ask what had happened, Ruby came bursting out, then tumbled
Ruby's joy came to an abrupt halt the moment she heard the news."She’s not dead?" The words slipped out before she realized how wrong they sounded.Sure enough, Eugene looked at her in shock. "Ruby, are you really hoping for your sister’s death?""No... I… I'm just worried about her," she stammere
