Daniel was ready to confront Joshua after regaining his senses. But, when he looked up, Joshua had vanished into thin air. He scanned the area but couldn't find Joshua anywhere.He felt bewildered since Joshua had been right there just moments ago.As Daniel lowered his head, his phone suddenly rang. His heart raced when he saw it was Austin calling, He had been so focused on getting Natasha to the hospital that he forgot to check in with Austin.Daniel glanced worriedly toward the operating room, silently praying for Natasha's well-being. Trembling, he answered the call.Austin's voice burst through the phone the moment Daniel picked up. "How's Natty? Have you found her? I wanted to help look for her, but you stopped me."What do we do now? She's such a good kid. How could she end up in such a situation?"Austin's agitation grew, his emotions seeming to mirror those of someone trapped in the throes of losing a loved one.Daniel sighed. "You're still so worked up at your age. Re

Chapter 552

Ever since Natasha married Joshua, she had fallen out with the Sullivans.Daniel hadn't seen Austin behave like this since then. Austin's questions reminded Daniel of how Austin used to act."Don't worry about Natasha. I'll take care of her while you focus on the conference," Daniel assured him."Wait… Is Natasha okay, then?" Austin persisted.Just then, Joshua rushed past Daniel and stopped at the entrance to the operating room.Surprised, Daniel looked up at Joshua. He thought he saw Joshua holding a cigarette, so he squinted to get a better look.Before Daniel's eyes could focus, Austin's booming voice from the phone startled him. "Hey! Are you even listening? How dare you ignore what I'm saying?"Daniel trembled and instinctively held the phone away from his ear.Austin's voice was so loud that even Joshua heard it. Joshua frowned and turned to look at Daniel.The air grew heavy with an awkward silence. Daniel's hand froze in midair as he searched for the appropriate words

Chapter 553

The atmosphere outside the operating room was tense the whole time. The corridor outside the VIP surgery ward was quiet, with only white walls and hospital beds in sight.The space was filled with metallic structures and medical equipment, casting cold shadows under the bright lights.Joshua sat beneath the lights' harsh glare, his face tense with worry. He couldn't shake the image of Natasha lying on the hospital bed from his mind. Her hair was messy, her face flushed, and her lips slightly parted.Joshua's Adam's apple bobbed as he felt restless. The combination of sensory overload and the life-and-death tension left him in a bewildered state.All he could think about was Natasha, and he hoped desperately that she would be okay. Despite not fully understanding his own emotions, one thing was clear to him: he couldn't bear the thought of Natasha dying.Daniel sat across from Joshua, his hands clasped together and fingers intertwined. He murmured, "Please, God…"His earnest praye

Upon hearing those words, Joshua's anxious heart finally found peace. A sense of relief flooded him.He exhaled deeply and politely thanked the attending doctor, "Thank you."The doctor waved his hands dismissively. "Please, don't mention it. It's our honor to serve you."Suddenly, as if remembering something important, Joshua leaned closer to the doctor's ear."Please relay a message to the hospital director for me. Let him send the contract between Central Hospital and Grayson Corp for this year directly to my office."The doctor's face brightened instantly. He seized Joshua's hand and exclaimed, "Thank you, Mr. Grayson! Thank you!"Joshua maintained his stoic expression."Can I go now, Mr. Grayson?" The doctor's face showed his eagerness.Joshua gestured for him to leave. After Joshua attended to his tasks, he turned to check on Natasha.He saw Daniel gripping Natasha's hand while walking alongside her bed. Despite the nurse's brisk pace, Daniel kept up as if determined to

Chapter 555

Joshua gently took the hospital bed from the nurse and wheeled Natasha into the VIP ward.The ward was impressively spacious, with a refined decor more akin to a luxury hotel suite than a medical facility.Joshua gripped the bed's handles as he gradually brought it to a halt, his gaze sweeping meticulously across the room. He was trying to identify any potential safety hazards.Grayson Corporation had a lot of rivals, and Joshua frequently encountered difficult situations on his business trips. He knew the importance of being vigilant.Unlike Grayson Hospital, where safety was assured, he couldn't guarantee the same level of security here. His priority was Natasha's safety during her stay in the ward.After completing his thorough inspection, Joshua began to feel somewhat reassured. He couldn't help but notice the room's decoration was simple yet elegant.For some reason, the decor sparked an indescribable feeling within him. Its simplicity and elegance perfectly mirrored Natasha

Joshua frowned, his eyes revealing his mixed feelings.Natasha's wrists looked fragile. Joshua imagined she must have been tired while knitting that blanket.He wondered what she had been thinking as she waited for him to return home. Was she upset that he was so late? Did she suspect him of cheating on her with someone else?Joshua considered these questions for a moment and then pushed them aside. Natasha loved him deeply back then. So, he trusted she wouldn't doubt him like that.Natasha must have been foolishly worrying about him, wondering if something happened on his way home for him to return so late. She was always too naive, being kind to someone who didn't love her.Feeling irritable, Joshua closed his eyes in an attempt to suppress his feelings of regret.When he managed to calm his emotions and opened his eyes again, he saw Daniel had already wheeled the hospital bed away and was holding Natasha in his arms. Then, he laid her gently on the bed.Daniel noticed Joshua

Joshua wasted no time. He pursed his lips and marched toward Daniel, clearly intent on removing him immediately. But just as he was about to grab Daniel, his phone rang.Alerted by the sound, Daniel turned to see Joshua looming behind him. Startled, Daniel stepped back while eyeing Joshua with disdain.He couldn't help but wonder why Joshua had approached so quietly and stealthily. His heart raced, and he instinctively touched his chest while stealing glances at Joshua.Their eyes met.Irritated, Joshua couldn't help but frown. He wondered who would call him at such a crucial moment since he had already sorted everything out in his company.Yet, the ringing persisted, forcing him to reach for his phone in his pocket."Natty's situation is sorted. Aren't you leaving?" Daniel asked, giving Joshua a sideways glance.Joshua paused. His eyebrows shot up in surprise as he pointed at himself in disbelief. "Wait, are you asking me to leave?"Daniel didn't see the problem and nodded wit

The ringing stopped at one point, only to start again moments later.Joshua felt annoyance surge through him as he questioned, "Transfer? For what reason?""Natty requires a more suitable setting," Daniel replied.Joshua blinked, looking somewhat confused.A more suitable setting?He surveyed the hospital ward. It was already well-appointed, yet Daniel insisted on something better.Joshua scoffed. It was clearly just an excuse.Flowerville Central Hospital was a private hospital boasting top-notch facilities. Besides, Natasha was staying in the VIP ward.Despite the already luxurious surroundings, Daniel insisted on upgrading Natasha's environment. It was a decision Joshua saw through as a mere pretext."For the expenses related to the surgery and hospitalization, simply forward the bills directly to me. The Sullivans will reimburse you tenfold. Consider it a gesture of appreciation this time."Daniel's words were direct and firm."Tenfold?" Joshua echoed in disbelief.Dani

"Have you made your decision?" Daniel asked casually while gently wiping Natasha's face with a towel.It seemed as if he expected Joshua to agree without hesitation.After all, Joshua had agreed to settle this favor by receiving 20 times the hospitalization and surgery expenses from Daniel. So, Daniel assumed Joshua would find this one equally acceptable.It was essentially exchanging money for Natasha's freedom. As a businessman, Joshua would typically see this as a favorable arrangement.However, Daniel was surprised by Joshua's profound silence. Only the medical instruments' soft beeping could be heard in the spacious VIP ward.Daniel furrowed his brows unconsciously as he glanced up at Joshua, whose demeanor resembled still water—deep and unsettling.His hands moving on Natasha's face slowed down, and a look of confusion appeared on his face. "Mr. Grayson, why the silence?"Daniel wondered if the terms he offered weren't satisfactory."Mr. Grayson, if you're not happy with

Chapter 560

Ignoring Joshua, Daniel asked, "Mr. Grayson, shouldn't you think about it?"This was the perfect chance for Natasha to break free from Joshua, who had been treating her poorly. Daniel saw this as an opportunity he couldn't miss.It was obvious to anyone that Natasha was getting the short end of the stick in this relationship. Joshua had complete control, which was unhealthy.Natasha was young and inexperienced, but Daniel, being more experienced, understood the situation well. He was determined to help Natasha out of this marriage for her own good.Daniel shifted tactics when Joshua remained silent. "What if I give you a few extra days to think about it? Such a chance doesn't come often, and I don't want you to pass it up."But still, there was only silence from Joshua.Daniel couldn't comprehend it. Offering a divorce agreement in exchange for a shot at success seemed like a straightforward decision to him. Why couldn't Joshua see that?Daniel continued to raise the stakes. "Ev
