Quincy huffed. "I'm not a romantic like you. I'm not planning to get into any relationship for now. I need to focus on getting into a good graduate program and securing a position in a reputable hospital.""Alright, fine. Focus on your dreams!" Jennifer rolled her eyes playfully.The two of them playfully bantered while setting up candles and making wishes. Jennifer spent the entire day feeling fulfilled and happy. Quincy kept thanking her after she dropped her off in the evening. "Alright, remember, you're not alone in Haven City. You have me!" Jennifer said. "So, no more posting such depressing posts on your social media."After Quincy entered the dorm, Jennifer headed home. On the way, she received a call from Maxwell. After some hesitation, she declined the call. She wasn't sure why Maxwell was trying to contact her, but she had decided to move on from the past. She didn't think there was any need for them to stay in touch.But her phone kept ringing persistently. Jen

Maxwell was also in great distress, but he comforted Jennifer, "The doctor said that Grandpa's previous tumor grew in a dangerous place. If it hadn't been for your mother, Grandpa wouldn't have survived. However, this tumor has a high chance of recurring. Once it does, there's no chance of survival."They stayed by Robert's bedside the entire time. Robert finally showed some reaction when dawn broke.Maxwell quickly called the doctor.After examining Robert, the doctor sighed in relief. "Your grandfather is strong. He's already showing signs of waking up!""Really?" Maxwell finally breathed a sigh of relief. "I've heard that your hospital's neurosurgery department is renowned. Please, do your best to save my grandfather."The doctor sighed and shook his head. "To be honest, given your grandfather's condition, there's no need for further treatment. As his family, you should accompany him through his final moments and ensure he moves on without regrets. That is also a form of filial

Jennifer looked down at the floor to avoid Robert's gaze.To be honest, she admired Robert's acceptance of death, but she couldn't bring herself to say goodbye to him. Jennifer knew it was pointless to continue the treatment and that it would only bring more pain to Robert. Subjecting an old man to chemotherapy at his age would be nothing short of torture.Jennifer nodded. "I understand, Grandpa. I'll make sure to make you happy every day.""That's a good girl. I always knew I made the right choice with you." Robert chuckled. "Maxwell is lucky to have married you."Jennifer couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. Thankfully, Robert didn't know that she and Maxwell were divorced. Although Robert had awakened, he was still weak and soon fell asleep. Jennifer went to look for Maxwell once he was asleep. She found him sitting on a bench outside the hospital.Jennifer hurried over. "Grandpa finally woke up. Are you sure you want to waste the little time left by not being with him

Jennifer hesitated. Although she felt awkward about it, she gritted her teeth and agreed when she thought of Robert. "Okay, I'll do my best."Maxwell found the situation between him and Jennifer truly ironic. They could have been a loving couple. Yet they grew distant, ending up in this situation. Even their marriage felt like an act.Jennifer checked the time. "I need to return to my internship. It's almost 8:00 am, time for the handover."She hadn't gone to work yesterday. If she were absent again, Khloe would definitely not let her off the hook.Noticing the dark circles under her eyes, Maxwell suggested, "You had been up all night watching over Grandpa. Are you okay with working right now? Why don't you take the day off? I'll take you home to rest.""I'm fine," Jennifer refused. "I should go. I'll come back to see Grandpa after work."Maxwell watched her retreating figure, feeling lost.…By the time Jennifer arrived at the cardiac surgery department, the handover had alrea

Jennifer smiled sheepishly. "You flatter me, Dr. Lowe. I know my worth."Nathan chuckled. "Haha, I'm sure you're worth a lot then."Jennifer giggled at the joke. She hadn't expected the usually serious Nathan to have such a sense of humor.As they returned to the department, they heard a commotion inside. Jennifer and Nathan exchanged glances and quickly walked inside. To their surprise, they found a crowd gathered around the nurses' station, with several people in the middle loudly arguing loudly. Nathan said to Jennifer, "You head back to the office first. I'll check it out."He hurried over and pushed through the crowd. Only then did he see Khloe being dragged around by one of the patient's family members.Nathan was shocked and immediately yelled, "What's going on? Everyone, calm down! We can discuss this peacefully."One of the family members eyed him suspiciously. "Are you in charge? Can you make decisions?""Yes, I'm in charge. I can make decisions here," Nathan answere

Nathan saw Khloe in a daze and asked, "Answer me! Who was on duty that night? Which intern went to check on the patient? How could you let an intern handle the patient?"Khloe lowered her head and muttered, "I... I was on duty, and Jennifer went to check the patient."Nathan stared at her in shock. "You let Jennifer check on the patient? What about you? Did you check on him yourself?"Khloe's mind raced, trying to figure out how to save herself from the situation.The family members had lost their patience. "Look at that! The doctor let an intern treat our father while she was lazing around! Did anyone record what she said? We'll use it as evidence to sue her!""No, you've got it wrong!" Khloe denied it desperately. She suddenly rushed into the office and dragged Jennifer out."It was her!" Khloe's gaze was filled with anger, and she yelled furiously, "This intern always acts on her own during her shifts and handles patient issues without informing me. I didn't even know about th

Jennifer snapped back to her senses and quickly shook her head. Her eyes were red with tears.Nathan handed her a cup of water. "Drink this to calm down. Then tell me everything that happened."Jennifer took the water and looked at him with uncertainty. "Will you… believe me?"Nathan said patiently, "How can I believe and help you if you don't tell me the whole story?"Jennifer finally stopped holding back and began softly, "Actually, I feel anxious every time I'm on duty with Ms. Carter. She makes me handle everything and forbids me from calling her. But I'm just an intern. How would I know how to handle patients? She gets impatient every time I call her. That night, I really did call her. I knocked on her office door three times. And she kept saying she'd check on the patient later."Nathan couldn't believe his ears. "Is it always like this when you're on duty with her?"Jennifer sighed. "If I call her too many times at night, she gives me a lot of tasks the next day, making it

Khloe glared at Jennifer and demanded, "What did you say to Dr. Lowe?"Jennifer met her gaze fearlessly. "I only told the truth. Ms. Carter, you can't change the truth. I'm sure you know why you didn't check on that patient that night. I still view you as my mentor. Don't you think you should take responsibility for your mistakes?""Shut up!" Khloe trembled with rage and gritted her teeth. "You didn't notify me! If I had known that the patient had chest pain, I would have ordered a full body check-up. Jennifer, do you think anyone will believe you? Do you think I would make such a novice mistake?"Jennifer felt a surge of anger welling up. "You are truly despicable, Ms. Carter."Under Khloe's furious gaze, Jennifer stormed off.Shortly after, Khloe entered Nathan's office. As soon as she stepped in, she said, "Dr. Lowe, don't listen to Jennifer's excuses. She's the one responsible for this accident.""Her? An intern?" Nathan was furious. Unlike his usual gentle self, he yelled, "

After visiting Harry, Simon left the prison with a heavy heart.He drove along a mountain road, letting the cool air blow against his face. He smoked a few cigarettes to clear his mind before finally heading home.It was late when he got back. Laura was in the kitchen trying to make something to eat. Simon sighed and walked over. "Go rest. I'll handle this."He took the ladle from her and began cooking.Laura didn't leave. Instead, she stood to the side, lost in thought. When had Simon started becoming this gentle? He used to be so distant and untouchable.She had been with him for five years, yet she had never known he could cook.Deep down, Laura wished he stayed the same cold and unreachable figure. At least then, she could keep her feelings in check.Simon asked, "Why aren't you resting?""I… I've been lying down all day. I just wanted to stand for a bit." She came up with an excuse. After a brief pause, she hesitantly asked, "Did you smoke?"Simon only then noticed the

Harry finally realized Simon had orchestrated everything. He had believed the Jensens were the mastermind behind this.Suddenly, thoughts of his daughter flooded his mind. He tried to stand up and confront Simon, but the handcuffs and shackles restrained him, forcing him to remain seated.Harry glared at Simon. "What have you done to my daughter? Tell me! What exactly have you done to her?"Simon smirked. "Nothing much. I simply taught her how to serve me, please me, and keep me happy."Harry's heart dropped. The thought of his daughter, whom he had lovingly raised and cherished, reduced to Simon's plaything after his imprisonment, tore his heart to pieces.It was a fate worse than death. "You! What happened to your father back then was my fault! I take full responsibility!" Harry's voice trembled, "But Laura is innocent. I beg you, let her go. Don't hurt her! You can kill me if you want. I'm begging you. Please, let Laura go!" Simon gazed at the desperate man before him. Ye

It was as if Simon blamed Laura for always asking stubborn questions.Their relationship was far from normal. He didn't understand why she insisted on getting to the bottom of everything.Laura's heart dropped. She returned to the bedroom, feeling utterly lost. Her heart ached. Simon was the most ruthless, selfish, and self-serving man she had ever met.Everything she had endured last night seemed insignificant to him. What mattered to him was that his mother hadn't caused her death, sparing him from any trouble.Around noon, Simon entered the bedroom.Laura was sitting on the rocking chair by the window, staring outside. The once-proud Laura now carried a sense of melancholy.Simon's heart tightened seeing her pale face. Unfortunately, apologizing wasn't his strong suit. He was too prideful for that.Still, he walked over to her and stroked her hair. "Don't take what I said to my mother earlier to heart. It wasn't aimed at you. Laura, you've been with me for five years. I thoug

Simon's words comforted Laura.After finishing the soup, she burrowed back under the covers. She peeked out to gaze at Simon, who was working on the couch. She could never get enough of him no matter how long she looked.Even though she knew she was being pathetic, she couldn't help herself. She was charmed by Simon. Every move he made exuded the poise and charisma of a mature man. Especially when he was focused on his work, it always stirred a sense of admiration in her.Eventually, drowsiness took over, and she drifted off to sleep again. She wasn't sure how long she slept. But later, she groggily heard Simon's voice as he spoke on the phone.Simon was on the balcony, talking to Fiona. Fiona feigned innocence. "How would I know she was on the balcony? I just noticed it was about to rain and wanted to close the balcony door for you."Simon's tone sharpened. "Mom, there's no point in making these excuses. We're mother and son. I can see right through you. If you pull another st

Laura understood Simon was technically still single since he wasn't married yet. She could still deceive herself and live in denial. But he would become someone else's husband once he married. Would she want to be his mistress?If it came to that, even she would despise herself.Simon hummed. "You can decide for yourself when that time comes. You can leave if you don't want to stay with me. But my promise will be void. You'd better believe me when I say, only I can save your father."Looking at Simon's emotionless face, Laura suddenly realized how cruel and cold-hearted he truly was. The feelings she thought they shared, the love and devotion she had poured her heart and youth into, were but a transaction in his eyes.Laura nodded. "Then let's set a deadline. I'll give you one year. If, after one year, my father's case remains unchanged, then we'll… cut ties."Simon replied calmly, "Fine, as you wish. Now get some rest."Only then did Laura close her eyes and stop resisting his t

Simon didn't give Laura any chance to react. He took a sip and then lowered his head before capturing her lips.Laura's eyes widened as Simon forced her to swallow the soup. She pounded on his shoulders before Simon let her go.He demanded, "I'll have no choice but to feed you like this if you don't drink the soup and take your medicine."Laura glared at him, her face flushed with both anger and embarrassment. She grabbed the bowl and downed the soup in one go. Then, she took the cold medicine he handed her.Simon finally relaxed and tucked her in. "Sleep."But how could Laura possibly fall asleep? Especially when Simon lay down beside her, pulling her into his embrace. She gritted her teeth. "Can you not touch me? I'm begging you. Don't touch me!"Simon didn't respond. He held her tightly, his warmth radiating through the thin fabric of her pajamas.Later, he noticed Laura was trembling and thought she was cold.When he turned her to face him, he realized her eyes were red, an

A sharp pain pierced Simon's chest. In the next instant, he held Laura tightly, as though trying to shield her from the cold. But still, she trembled uncontrollably. Without hesitation, he rushed to fill the bathtub with warm water and slowly placed her into it.Simon stroked Laura's pale face, then gently instructed, "Stay in the bath for a while. I'll make you some peppermint tea. If you start running a fever later, we might need to go to the hospital."Having said that, he turned to leave the bathroom. But as soon as he closed the door, he heard her crying.Simon froze in his tracks, then turned and rushed back in. He quickly undressed and stepped into the tub before pulling her into his arms. "I'm sorry, Laurie. I'm so sorry I came home so late," he apologized in a hoarse voice. "I-I didn't know they would—""Go away! Don't touch me!"Laura shoved him away with all her strength. Her voice broke as she screamed, "While you were happily spending time with your family, I was

As soon as Simon finished speaking, he froze. He had repeated what Laura had told him that day, almost exactly.He was a lawyer. Yet, his response was far from professional. Laura's words and actions had crept into his thoughts without him even realizing it. The realization unsettled him, leaving him feeling irritated.Meanwhile, William avoided Simon's gaze, guilt written all over his face. "Why are you bringing this up again? I've already told you. Those people came from some poor countryside. They don't deserve one million dollars."Besides, who in the right mind would complain about having too much money? If I can settle this with 200 thousand dollars, why should I pay a million? Didn't you say you found evidence to clear Brooks Group of most of the responsibility?"Simon had indeed found such evidence. That crucial piece meant Nick's family couldn't demand much compensation. Yet, a tightness gripped his chest, as if something unseen was pressing down on him. For some reaso

Fiona fixed her gaze on Simon, then replied, "Tell me honestly. Do you really only see Laura as the daughter of our enemy? If so, why do you keep putting off your engagement to Hailey?"Is there something else on your mind? Let me warn you. If you've developed any sympathy for that bitch, I'll end my life right in front of you!"Simon's heart sank as he heard that. He could clearly see the unwavering determination in her eyes. He would never doubt Fiona's words. After all, it was Harry who had caused Anthony's death, and that had shattered her life completely.The humiliation and torment Fiona had once endured flooded Simon's mind. He clenched his fists, unwilling to dwell on it any longer.He knew that Fiona would never accept Laura. The incident was something Fiona could never get over. Suddenly, she became agitated and grabbed Simon's arm tightly. Her voice was desperate as she demanded, "Tell me now. Do you have feelings for that bitch? Answer me!""Mom, calm down. I promi
