Chapter 1581

"It happened several years ago when I was handling a situation in Saint Angel. I just happened to save a little beggar," Peter explained casually, clearly never giving much thought to Linda.If Linda had not mentioned it, he would have long forgotten the incident.Tania nodded in understanding. "I see. That little girl seems to admire you quite a bit," she remarked with a smile.Peter's sharp, piercing eyes softened the moment they met Tania's. Hearing her words, he could not help but reach out and gently ruffle her hair. "What's this? Are you jealous?""Jealous? What even is that?" Tania huffed, feigning indignation."You think I'd get jealous over a teenage girl? Peter, you must be mistaken." She slapped his hand away with a playful glare. "That little girl looks like she's only 15 or 16! She's still a minor!"Peter glanced at the spot on his hand where she had swatted him, and a faint smile tugged at the corners of his lips.He sighed theatrically, "So, this is where I stand

Though Peter had voiced his concerns, he allowed Zara to proceed as she insisted.Zara carried Brandon inside, but seeing her strain slightly, Brandon spoke up, "Zara, I can walk by myself!""Brandon is such a good boy!" Zara praised him warmly, gently setting him down. "Mr. Peter, Ms. Tania, would you like to rest for a while? I'm in the middle of cooking, and the meal will be ready soon.""Wow, it's so big!"A crisp, youthful voice echoed through the villa, carrying a playful tone. "Mr. Jeremy, could you help bring in my luggage?"'Luggage' was a bit of an exaggeration. It was just a small bag Linda had impulsively bought before boarding the plane.Linda strolled into the villa as though she owned the place, casually wandering around with her bright eyes scrutinizing everything. She nodded approvingly. "Not bad, not bad at all. This is so much better than my house.""Mr. Peter, who is this?"Zara looked curiously at the young girl, especially surprised by how at ease Linda se

While Linda and Zara went upstairs, Peter headed into the kitchen to finish preparing the meal. Zara had already cooked most of it, so Peter only tidied up and added two more dishes. Meanwhile, Tania stayed in the living room, playing chess with Brandon.Even though Brandon was still young, his intelligence was remarkable—likely inherited from Peter. From a young age, Brandon had demonstrated abilities far beyond his peers. However, he rarely liked to show off and often concealed his talents at school.After playing a few rounds with Brandon, Tania looked up to see Peter walking out of the kitchen. He removed his apron, smiling lightly as he approached the two.Noticing how evenly matched Tania and Brandon were, Peter seemed surprised. "Brandon, your chess skills have improved a lot recently."His eyes narrowed slightly as he observed Brandon's moves. Suddenly, his gaze sharpened. "Who taught you this strategy?""Steven," Tania replied, lifting her head with a helpless smile. "W

"Wow, even when you insult me, you're adorable!" Linda exclaimed.Tania, Peter, and even Brandon were utterly speechless.The collective thought of the three was, 'This girl must have a few screws loose!'Tania was the first to recover, coughing lightly to break the awkwardness. "Um, the food is ready. Everyone must be hungry. Let's eat!"She asked Zara to clear the chessboard. At that moment, Jeremy came downstairs, saying, "Mr. Lennon, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now.""Wait!" Tania called out, stopping him. "Sit down and eat with us!"Jeremy looked startled, glancing between Tania and Peter. "That doesn't seem appropriate, Mrs. Lennon.""If she said sit, just sit," Peter interjected.With Peter's approval, Jeremy stopped hesitating. Zara quickly added another set of cutlery, and Jeremy joined them at the table."This is so delicious!" Linda exclaimed loudly. She had a habit of reacting in an exaggerated manner, something the family initially struggled to get

Peter glanced behind Brandon's ears and confirmed the faint patches were there as well. "Ms. Holt, your observational skills are impressive."Linda scratched her head sheepishly. "Hehe! Honestly, I was just guessing. I wasn't entirely sure. So, Master, are you saying the patients aren't your wife and child?"Peter nodded. "They are. But there's another patient I'd like you to examine as well. Her condition is more serious."Peter brought Tania and Linda along to the hospital, where Charles and Sean were already waiting. They had been informed of their arrival.After they got out of the car, Peter casually hoisted Brandon over his shoulder while Tania stepped down beside him. Linda trailed behind, her mouth agape and her expression brimming with excitement. "Wow, master, you're so cool!"Tania smiled wryly at Linda's enthusiasm. "Ms. Holt, are you always this... straightforward?"Linda beamed. "My goddess, you're so beautiful too!"Tania could not help but shake her head. "You ca

Noelle looked slightly taken aback and turned her gaze to Charles, then to the group that had entered the ward."Peter's here, and so is Tania!"She smiled and put down her book.Tania quickly walked over. "Noelle, this is Linda Holt, the miracle doctor Pete brought!"Tania had already witnessed Linda's skills before arriving. Linda had only given Tania a couple of acupuncture treatments, and the dark patches behind her ears had lightened significantly. Tania even felt her body improving noticeably.Though Linda was young, her reputation as a prodigy from a prestigious medical family was not unwarranted.A miracle doctor?Charles' eyes narrowed as he glanced at Peter, who gave a small nod. "She's Saxon's sister."Linda directed her gaze toward Noelle, her expression serious as she circled around her twice. Her eyes never left Noelle, but she suddenly pouted."Strange. You've been infected with the virus, but your condition is so much better than the others!""Better?" Noelle

Linda administered acupuncture to Noelle and prepared a prescription for a herbal remedy meant for pregnant women.However, Charles remained cautious and called for Margaret to evaluate it as well. Since Margaret practiced normal medicine and Linda's prescription was based on alternative medicine, Margaret hesitated.She looked at Charles apologetically. "Mr. Hoffman, I'm sorry, but alternative medicine isn't my area of expertise."Linda pouted at them. "Relax, I wouldn't harm her. Since you're friends of my benefactor, I'd never do anything to hurt her."Linda understood that her young age naturally made others question her medical abilities.However, if anyone else dared doubt her skills, Linda would not hesitate to poke them with needles. However, seeing the attractive people in the ward, she held back. After all, everyone here was so good-looking.Unaware of Linda's inner thoughts, Charles squinted and glanced at Peter, who nodded subtly. Only then did Charles hand the prescr

Although Charles did not know exactly who Yves was, being associated with the Hoffmans suggested they shared some similarities in behavior and methods.Since Charles had the confidence to use Kelly as a move against Yves, he had already considered numerous possibilities."My people are monitoring the area around Caspian Villas. Kelly's signal was last located there," Charles said as he stood by the window, gazing at the flickering city lights.For once, his demeanor seemed subdued. "This might be the final confrontation, but bringing Tania into this..."He rubbed his temples in frustration."They came prepared, so it's something we couldn't have predicted," Peter said as he stood, placing a reassuring hand on Charles' shoulder. "He won't stay in the shadows for long."…Meanwhile, in the car heading back to the Lennon residence, Jeremy drove while Tania sat in the back seat, cradling Brandon.Beside her was Linda, the young girl who, despite looking tired, was bubbling with ene

Peter immediately left with Sean."Sean, you're driving!" Peter tossed the car keys to Sean, climbed into the passenger seat, and quickly opened his laptop to track Tania's phone.He made a call to both Lareal and Steven. "Steven, I'm sending you Tania's location—she's in danger!"Steven, who was about to go to bed at the villa, froze when he received Peter's message. He squinted, grabbed a jacket, and headed out. A capable-looking woman followed closely behind him."Mr. Fischer!"Steven paused and glanced at her. "Didn't I tell you to stay in Cascade City and keep an eye on Eloise?""Sir, Eloise—" the woman started, but before she could finish, Eloise herself appeared from the side."Sir," Eloise greeted calmly.The instant Steven saw her, his expression darkened, becoming almost menacing. "What are you doing here?"Eloise's demeanor remained steady. "I came to see if there's anything I can help with."She said this as she looked directly at Steven and then at the woman behi

Although Tania was terrified, she did not let it show. She merely shook her head and said firmly, "Jeremy, focus on driving. Don't worry about me and Linda. We'll take care of ourselves." Despite her calm words, her eyes stayed glued to her phone.She knew she could not afford to panic or add to Peter's stress. Holding Brandon tightly in her arms, she whispered reassuringly, "Brandon, don't be scared. I'm here!"Peter, who was listening to Tania through the phone, clenched his jaw with bloodshot eyes. "Sean, drive faster!"Sean stepped harder on the gas pedal. Something occurred to him, and he quickly called Charles. "Charles, I haven't had time to keep an eye on Liliana. If this attack is really targeting the Hoffmans, Liliana might—""I'll take care of it," Charles interrupted. He had already assigned people to protect Liliana, but Sean's call made him tighten security.He immediately dialed Ronald's number. "Who's currently assigned to Liliana?""It's… Raymond, Mr. Hoffman,"
