For the most part, Edgar Atwood makes the decision in their household. But once Katherine began to study Medical Technology, her opinion would also be taken into consideration more when it comes to Ursa’s well-being. She could better explain to her dad about her mom’s status so he could make better decisions in regards to the doctor’s plan of care. If he ever doubted some procedures, Katherine could explain to him the rationale for those procedures.
Now, when Katherine stated her stand on whether they should move Ursa to Forrest Hospital now, he listened to her.
“Okay. Ursa, do you agree with this plan?” He asked his wife. Now that she’s awake, her opinion should count too.
Ursa nodded absentmindedly.
“Okay then..” His mouth opened and closed a few times. He wanted to say something but was hesitant to say it.
Katherine heaved a sigh
“Thank you..” She said softly.“Hmm?”“The nurses told me..”“Ah.. no problem..” He chuckled.“..”“So, how do you like teaching in Rising Phoenix so far?” He asked casually.Only then Katherine lifted her head.“It was good, Sir. Thank you for recommending me.”“Sir? So formal.. Call me by my name from now on.”“Umm.. but you’re my boss.”“I’m also your friend’s soon to be brother-in-law..”“Still..” She thought that it was not appropriate. She would even still call Lucas using honorifics and he was the one in a relationship with her friend.“I heard there’s an event coming u
The young woman in front of him kept fidgeting.She kept trying to convince him to move Ursa to a cheaper room. She never thought that they would put her in one of the suites instead. She thought she could come up with the money to keep paying the bills. But looking at it, even if there’s a discount and even if they signed up for the program, her income from her two jobs won’t be enough. Even if they were to include Edgar’s income as well.“Don’t worry about it.” He told her.“But Sir..”He cleared his throat. “You know you keep using honorifics again.”“W-what?” She was momentarily stunned.She was still worried about the future bills when he suddenly mentioned this.“Morris..” His deep voice sounded.She blinked a few times. Her chee
Morris arrived at his own house.After discussing with his assistant Oscar Jones on the phone, he ate his meal absentmindedly as he watched some news on TV.His phone rang. He picked it up.“Yes..” He said.“Is everything settled there?” Lucas asked him.“Yup. I had Oscar draft a contract for the program. She’ll meet me tomorrow to discuss it.”“Good.. Diana said they might be worried about the bills as soon as they move into the room.”He chuckled. “She got that right. Her friend begged me to move her mom to the ward instead. Anyway, I just told her that it’s better for her mom to stay in that room. I just told her to discuss the details with me tomorrow.”“Alright. You can handle that yourself...Ah.. Your sister-in-law says thanks..”
She felt that it was too much. 30% share of the company is too much to ask for in exchange for the money and guidance that he offered.She was sure that although their company would need money to expand their business. They didn’t necessarily need to fork out that much percentage for the investor.In fact, if she were to marry Morris, she would get more. Even more than that, she could even establish her own company. With Morris, she only needed his full support. There were no worries about him taking over the company for himself. His area of interest is not in real estate. It’s in the Medical field.However, Gunner Cline could offer his money and guidance were simply too much, even for her. If it were just 10% maybe it would be fine.Although she and Gunner are compatible as bed partners, she doesn't really trust him when it comes to business. Even in her muddled state, she could sense hi
Morris froze as he listened to his grandmother’s words. Old Madam didn’t know about the engagement getting called off yet. He has been so busy lately that he hasn’t found the time to tell them. He didn’t expect for Tuesday Palmer to show up at his family’s residence.“Grandma.. I’m still at work.” He said, wondering how he is going to tell his grandmother.‘Do I just say it straight?’“Oh? Well then, I wonder what brought her here.. Do you know?”He breathed a sigh.“I don’t know grandma. Also, we’re not together anymore. I was finding time to let you know.”Lillian was startled at his son’s revelation. But seeing that the woman involved is already in front of her, she didn’t say more.“Alright then. I’ll see you later.&
Once the call ended, Lillian went back to the living room and chatted with Tuesday about mundane things, steering away from the earlier topic. On the other side, Emma has called Morris and told him that they’ll see each other at the family’s mansion. “Alright mom. I’ll see you there.” He told his mother, ending the call.The Old Patriarch, Mr. Ernest Lovell arrived home and was surprised to see his grandson’s fiancee in their residence. For all he knows, there’s no special occasion that would warrant a visit. If it were his other grandchildren or even Diana, he wouldn’t be too shocked. After all, they would come over even if there’s no special occasion. But Tuesday Palmer was different, they would only meet her when there’s special events, especially those that would involve media coverage. Whenever they would ask Morris to bring her more often, he would always tell them that she was busy at work or that she was out
What did she expect? For Morris to keep their matters private and save some face? For him to play along with her act and agree to set a wedding date so the elders won’t be disappointed? Yes, she did expect those scenarios to happen. She expected him to care for her elders so much that he wouldn’t dare speak the truth which would disappoint them. Aren’t the Lovell-Forrest family a bunch of well-reputed people? They were never involved in any scandals and were always seen as people who have high morals. If Morris were to reveal her affair with another man, wouldn’t their reputation be dragged down as well? If they truly care about their reputation, they should bury this issue and move on. Nobody else knows anyway. As long as they don’t tell. So when Morris sp
She could trust that Morris wouldn’t release that evidence to the public as it will also taint their reputation. But what about Gunner? No matter how intimate they were, she couldn’t trust his character enough. She wasn’t sure that Gunner would not release those in his anger if they will drag his name and accuse him of rape. Although there would be no evidence that he raped her, just the rumor that he did would be enough to damage his reputation. “No.. Don’t..” She stopped Hugh from making the call when she heard the ringing sound on his phone which was put on speaker. “I’ll go.” It is a pity that her future as Mrs. Ingram would never come true. Now that the truth is out in the open, it became impossible to enter the Lovell-Forrest family. Just her stopping Hugh from making the call to the Oxfield Crime Department was enough to show that she made up the story of her bei
