Chapter 1931

Seeing that Vera didn’t want to talk, Caleb had no choice but to sigh and say, “Let me take care of this for you.” He grabbed some alcohol and cotton swabs. Vera instinctively pulled her leg back, feeling a little embarrassed. “It’s just a small wound. I can do it myself.” But Caleb pressed her down gently, his voice firm. “Don’t move.” Without thinking, she obeyed. The moment the cotton swab touched her skin, she flinched. The cold alcohol sent a sharp, uncomfortable sting through her body. Caleb had only applied it to the surface of her wounds, yet she kept shrinking back. He frowned slightly, wondering if he was hurting her. Vera, however, thought he was upset. “I’m sorry… I didn’t mean to. It’s just cold. And alcohol stings when it touches a wound.” She had grown up pampered. Before her father’s accident, he had never let her suffer even the tiniest injury. This was her first time experiencing the sting of disinfectant. “I’ll be more careful,” Caleb sa

Chapter 1932

Vera didn’t want to trouble Caleb. But then she thought about Mr. Lincoln, about Uncle Zimmer, who had sold her out, and about the threats Mr. Lincoln had made after she injured him. A slight shiver ran down her spine. She was certain—there was no way that man would just let this go. Caleb clearly noticed something was off. Before he could ask, Vera lifted her head and said, “I’d appreciate it if you could take me home.” “Alright,” Caleb replied, his furrowed brows relaxing slightly. She didn’t have to say anything. It didn’t matter. He would keep an eye on her over the next few days, just to make sure she stayed safe. *When they arrived at her place, the sight at the entrance made Caleb’s expression darken. The floor and the door were covered in red spray paint, filled with vulgar insults—words like *whore* and *slut* scrawled across the surface. His jaw tightened. This wasn’t something he could ignore. He turned to Vera. “Who did you piss off recently?

As Caleb reached the entryway, he hesitated. Vera was still on his mind. He stopped in his tracks, torn for a moment. Vera glanced at his phone, forcing herself to ignore the strange pang of jealousy that surfaced in her chest. “Dr. Smith, you should go. I’ll be fine.“They wouldn’t dare go too far. This is a society governed by law, after all.” “Alright. Call me if anything happens.” Caleb’s expression softened slightly before he finally left. The villa was now eerily quiet, leaving Vera completely alone. She had spent plenty of time by herself before, but for some reason, tonight felt especially lonely. Even with all the doors and windows locked, a lingering chill crept over her limbs. She shook off the feeling and tried not to overthink it. Instead, she took a hot shower and went to bed early. Thankfully, the night passed without incident. *The next morning, Vera hired someone to remove the red spray paint from her door and the pavement outside. A

Simply put, they were a bunch of grown men who didn’t know how to do housework. Vera was momentarily stunned. She hadn’t thought about this at all. But this was a big issue. Housing and meals were the workers’ top concerns. She couldn’t promise them accommodations, only for them to arrive and find that the dorms were unlivable. “Keep them calm for now. I’ll figure out a solution for the cleaning,” she told Stanley, her mind racing for a practical plan. Cleaning itself wasn’t the problem. She could easily hire a cleaning crew to take care of it. But that would be too expensive—not worth the cost. A single cleaner cost a few hundred per day. If she hired multiple, she would be spending over a thousand. That kind of money would be better spent elsewhere. “If I do it myself, at least I can make sure it’s done properly,” she thought. Her eyes lit up with the realization. Without wasting a second, she rushed home to gather supplies. By the time she arrived

Vera had been planning to confront Uncle Zimmer, but before she even had the chance, he reached out to her first. She answered the call. On the other end, Uncle Zimmer was sobbing uncontrollably, his voice thick with remorse. “Vera, I swear, I had no idea Mr. Lincoln would do something like that to you!“I’m a terrible person. I don’t deserve forgiveness! I’ve let your father down, I’ve let you down.”*Slap. Slap.* The sound of him hitting himself came through the phone. For a brief moment, Vera hesitated. Was it possible that Uncle Zimmer really hadn’t known what Mr. Lincoln was planning that night? But that thought didn’t last long before she dismissed it. No way. He had been the one to set the entire meeting up. How could he not have known? “Uncle Zimmer, I’m not a child. Don’t bother trying to manipulate me. It won’t work,” Vera said bluntly. As expected, the other end of the line went silent. The moment he tried to speak again, she cut him off

Chapter 1936

It was almost the end of the month. Every month, Vera had to pay for her father’s hospital stay and medical expenses. Before heading out, Vera checked her bank account balance. Previously, Nash had transferred a million to her account. A large portion had gone toward purchasing materials, while the rest had been allocated to workers' wages and other expenses. Surprisingly, after accounting for everything, she still had $300,000 left. Adding in her own savings, she had $350,000 in total. Seeing the balance, Vera could hardly believe it. Then, she realized—Nash must have anticipated this situation from the start. Thinking about it that way, she felt she had gained a deeper understanding of the man behind York Corporation. People always spoke about Nash’s ruthless business tactics, but no one seemed to realize how meticulous he truly was. Letting out a quiet sigh, she pushed aside the thought. She had already owed too many favors. With that, she composed hers

The next second, the two men rushed straight toward her! Vera’s first instinct was to get in her car and drive to a crowded area. In a busy district, no matter how bold these men were, they wouldn’t dare make a move in front of so many people. Thankfully, her car was right next to her. She yanked open the door, jumped in, and started the engine—completely ignoring her seatbelt. Behind her, the two men exchanged a look. “She’s trying to run!” “No kidding! Stop standing there like an idiot! Go get the car! We’re chasing her!” The other man smacked him upside the head. This was no time for useless chatter. They had been paid to do a job. If Vera got away and their employer found out, they would be the ones paying the price. Their car wasn’t parked far away. In seconds, one of them got behind the wheel, while the other climbed in and shouted, “Hit her car—NOW.” “Got it.” The driver narrowed his eyes, floored the gas pedal, and slammed straight into the back of

Chapter 1938

Ever since she had met Caleb, he had already done too much for her. She owed him more than she could ever repay. And if he got hurt today because of her, she wouldn’t know how to make it up to him. But Caleb could see exactly how dangerous the situation was. If he walked away now and left her to face this alone—what kind of person would that make him? That was something he could never do. Without hesitation, he lunged at the two men, fighting them head-on. Vera watched, her heart pounding in fear. Just as things were about to spiral further out of control, the blaring sirens of a police car filled the air. A group of heavily armed officers stepped out. “Freeze! Hands where we can see them!” The two men instantly panicked and tried to escape. But after ramming their car into Vera’s, both vehicles were too damaged to drive. Without a way to flee, they were quickly subdued and arrested by the police. Vera and Caleb were also taken to the station t

Vera was completely focused as she carefully tended to Caleb’s wounds. Without realizing it, his gaze lingered on her. Under the warm glow of the lights, she looked stunning—so stunning that for a moment, he found himself entranced. That was, until the wound ointment stung as it touched his skin, making him instinctively hiss in pain. “Sorry! Did I hurt you?” Vera immediately leaned down and gently blew on the wound. “That should help a little. I’ll try to be gentler, but it’s going to sting a bit. You’ll have to bear with it.” Caleb couldn’t help but chuckle. “Vera, I’m not a child. I can handle a little pain. You don’t have to treat me like one.” Vera corrected him, “Of course I know you’re not a child. But who says only kids feel pain? Adults do too. And if I can make it hurt less by being gentle, then why wouldn’t I?” If there was a way to ease his pain, why should he just endure it? Caleb didn’t argue further. Once she finished treating the wounds on

Chapter 1940

Vera hated herself for being so greedy. Wanting a late-night snack was bad enough, but being too lazy to change clothes? That was a whole new level of humiliating. “Wait,” Caleb called after her. “I’m a little hungry too. I was just about to make some late-night snacks. Why don’t you change and join me? Or, if you’d rather not, I can leave the food outside your door.” “I’ll change and be right back,” Vera blurted out, mortified at the thought of making him bring food to her room. She rushed back to her room, changed at record speed, checked herself in the mirror, and even splashed her face with cold water to make sure the redness was gone before heading out. By the time she walked into the living room, Caleb had already finished making the food. The rich aroma of a hearty stew filled the air, making Vera take a deep breath, savoring the scent. “This smells amazing. You’re a really good cook.” “It’s mostly the seasoning that smells good,” Caleb replied casuall
