Joshua gripped his phone, shot one last look at Daniel, then turned and walked off, leaving only the sound of his footsteps echoing against the floor.Daniel stood frozen for a moment, blinking as he remembered the intense stare Joshua had just given him.What did it mean? Why was Joshua looking at him like that? It was unnerving.Eventually, Daniel's heart rate slowed, and he quietly pulled up his sleeve, noticing goosebumps forming on his skin.Despite Joshua being young, his intense stare was scary, creating a weighty atmosphere that Daniel, despite his experiences, had never felt before.How could Joshua have such an intimidating gaze? Daniel absentmindedly rubbed his arm.Just then, a knock on the door broke Daniel's thoughts. He quickly refocused and pushed aside the strange feeling in his heart."Come in," he called out.A nurse entered, wheeling a small cart in. "Hello, I'm here to change Ms. Sullivan's dressing."Daniel assessed the medications on the cart, scrutinizi

The nurse reacted on instinct and caught the medications."Administer these medications to Natty. If you're unsure, have the attending physician verify the ingredients." Daniel tried his best to soften his tone, though a hint of stiffness lingered.The nurse glanced at the medications in her arms. She hadn't examined the ingredients closely, but two words stood out on the labels—"The Sullivans".Anyone would recognize those medications with those words.The nurse's eyes widened, and her hands began to tremble.Could these be counterfeit? How did medications from the Sullivans end up in a small town like Flowerville?It seemed highly unlikely for medications from any family in Topola to surface, let alone those belonging to the esteemed Sullivan family.Daniel was puzzled when he saw the nurse froze. He leaned down to ask, "What's the matter? Are you unsure of how to administer these medications? I can walk you through it."After snapping out of her daze, the nurse met Daniel's

Austin furrowed his brow as he heard the nurse's words. He asked, "So, it'll take two or three hours?"The nurse thought he was unhappy with the time needed for Natasha to wake up. She quickly clarified, "The attending physician told me it would take this long. I'm unsure about the exact time."If you need more details, you can ask the attending physician. If you want to speed up the process for this young lady, I'm afraid I can't assist, but the attending physician might be able to."Should I call the physician for you?"Since the nurse learned who they were, she made sure not to delay her explanations, worried she might unintentionally offend them."It's fine." Austin waved his hand dismissively. "Just show me the vital signs chart."The nurse promptly fetched the chart from the cart and handed it to Austin respectfully.Daniel felt frustrated. Why did the nurse readily comply with Austin's request, while he had struggled to catch a glimpse of the chart earlier?Was it becaus

Daniel seemed outwardly composed, but inside, he was wrestling with anxiety."Wait, you mean that Joshua? Joshua Grayson?" Austin's surprise was apparent as soon as he heard the name.Daniel nodded in response. "Yes."Austin's expression grew grim, and he rose abruptly from the couch.Taken aback, Daniel asked, "Dad, what's wrong?"Austin ignored him and began to pace around the room, deep in thought.After pacing for a while, Austin halted and turned to Daniel. "How have Natty and Joshua been getting along all these years?"Daniel considered his response carefully before speaking, "Their relationship—"But before he could affirm that everything was likely fine, a realization struck him. When he visited Natasha, he found her residing in Imperial Heights rather than with Joshua.He pondered whether their living apart hinted at problems in their relationship, but then quickly brushed off the idea.Previously, when Daniel attempted to set Natasha up with Ryan during dinner, he s

"What did you say?" Austin turned slowly as if he was having trouble understanding Daniel's words.Daniel's heart raced as he realized his suggestion couldn't have come at a worse moment.Austin and Natasha's relationship was still strained, and suggesting bringing Natasha back to the Sullivan residence so suddenly might make things worse.Daniel's heart continued to pound as he mustered the courage to repeat his words, "I was saying… maybe we should bring Natty back to the Sullivan residence. The hospital here doesn't compare to the ones in Topola."Look, my men just brought these medications from the vehicle. The quality of medications at Flowerville Central Hospital is somewhat lacking, and Natty isn't comfortable using them."Austin's gaze shifted toward the medications in the cart.Daniel noticed his gaze and quickly bent down to pick up the medications.He spread several boxes in his palm and added, "Look, there's a significant difference between these medications and the

Rows of fancy cars were parked in front of the hall, each with serious-looking bodyguards nearby.Joshua frowned as he took in the scene. He hadn't expected the conference to wrap up so quickly.He had planned to look for the Sullivan family's miracle worker and plead for help for Philip. But now, with the crowd dispersing, he felt defeated.The conference ending meant the miracle worker had likely already left, and all the talks were done.He had missed his chance to meet the miracle worker and help Philip.Joshua's expression turned intricate, the dim yellow light casting a shadow on his features.It dawned on him that by the moment he chose to help Natasha, he had let slip the opportunity to meet the Sullivan family's miracle worker.His grip tightened on the steering wheel, creasing the soft leather beneath his fingers.He couldn't come to terms with the fact that Natasha was the cause for him to miss such a chance. Restlessness began to settle over him.Suddenly, Natalie'

Joshua couldn't shake off the urge to buy flowers, despite trying to push it away. He felt like he was losing his mind.Even if Joshua wanted to buy flowers, his instinct told him they should be for Natalie, not Natasha.Did Natasha mean more to him than he realized?His gaze hardened as he clenched his fists. He struggled to calm down."Josh, I'm here!" Natalie waved frantically from across the aisle, trying to catch his eye.But Joshua seemed completely lost in his thoughts. No matter how loudly Natalie shouted or how vigorously she waved, Joshua remained oblivious to her presence.As Natalie's attempts to catch his attention went unnoticed, the excitement in her eyes dwindled. Slowly, she lowered her hand.A chill settled over Natalie's features as her narrowed eyes fixated on Joshua. Her intuition screamed at her that Joshua's thoughts were focused on another woman.Without a doubt, that woman was Natasha. Natalie couldn't comprehend what hold Natasha had over Joshua to mak

"Sorry?" Natalie blinked. "Josh, why are you saying sorry?" She looked confused, almost innocent.Joshua hesitated upon hearing Natalie's question."I…" His words trailed off as he struggled to articulate his thoughts.He felt a pang of guilt and realized he owed Natalie an apology. He found himself drawn toward Natasha although she was merely a substitute for Natalie.Joshua wasn't certain if his feelings for Natasha were genuine, but he knew he had crossed a line by carrying her today. It wasn't fair to Natalie."Sorry…" Joshua muttered again.His apology seemed directed at both Natalie and himself.Natalie noticed the gravity in his expression, a seriousness she hadn't witnessed before. It sent a shiver down her spine as Joshua had never apologized to her.He was a prideful and accomplished newcomer in the business world. From his privileged upbringing, he viewed ordinary people with disdain.Considering his stature and attitude, Natalie never anticipated receiving an apolo

Chapter 569

Seated in the passenger seat, Natalie maintained a composed demeanor, acting as if nothing was amiss.However, she was raging internally. Waves of turmoil boiled within her, and she was on the verge of losing control.As she kept stealing glances at Joshua, the frequency of her head-turning increased. However, Joshua was completely immersed in his own thoughts, oblivious to everything around him, including his first love.After around five minutes, Natalie couldn't bear it any longer. She took a deep breath before fetching a mirror from her bag. In the mirror, she saw that the blood on her lips had dried up, losing its former luster.Natalie's gaze darkened. As Joshua never laid his eyes on her at all, the blood on her lips was pointless. The dried blood only reminded her of her failure.With deep resentment growing within her, she aggressively pulled out tissues from her bag. She began wiping away the blood stains of shame so fiercely that it almost broke her skin.It was as if

Chapter 570

With her gaze fixed on Joshua, Natalie's heart began pounding uncontrollably.Joshua was unbelievably handsome. No matter how many times she looked at him, her heart wouldn't stop fluttering. With his face so close to hers, she blushed so furiously that her cheeks were a brighter shade than her blood.Natasha had said she didn't love Joshua at all. But how could that be possible?Given his face, no woman would be able to resist him, especially considering he was Grayson Corporation's president. Natalie didn't believe anyone wouldn't be swayed by him.Joshua squeezed out a dollop of medication onto his fingertips. The ointment emitted a faint fragrance.With his slender fingers, he gently applied the medication to the wound. His touch was delicate and ticklish, which minimized the pain in her lips greatly. Suddenly, the mood shifted."Josh…" Natalie softly called out his name, instinctively grabbing hold of the lapel of his suit jacket. She wanted to kiss him.However, just as sh
