All Chapters of Silent Devotion: The Billionaire's Patient Love: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

He could play the bigger person and admit his wrongs, but she'd never be allowed to get one over on him."Alex, you’re such a f—" "Wendy!" Kaylee quickly grabbed Wendy’s arm. She only cursed when she was truly furious. "I’ve already moved out of the Morgan family. We won’t be seeing each other again. Let’s just leave it at that." Kaylee didn't want to waste any more words on Alex. She was worried Wendy might say something she'd regret in her anger. While Alex himself wasn't particularly capable, the Morgan family had William. Blood was thicker than water. If William decided to step in and defend Alex, it would only cause trouble for Wendy. Kaylee wasn't afraid of trouble for herself, but she couldn't let her best friend get caught up in it. With that, the dramatic scene finally came to an end. Wendy still picked out two outfits and two pairs of shoes from the store before they left. Once outside, she handed a shoebox to Kaylee. "This is for you." "Huh?

She was in debt and couldn't quit her job, but staying meant she had no way to escape from Andrew.Being a penniless gambler and drunk, Andrew would definitely keep harassing her.Even if he eventually discovered she wasn't marrying Alex, he'd probably show up at her workplace causing scenes to demand money.The thought of having to constantly feed his greed made her feel utterly hopeless.Kaylee had thought her life would finally return to normal.Yet here she was, on day one, with everything spiraling into chaos again.She didn't know how long she stayed there, until the sky began to show the first light of dawn. Only then did she stumble back home.After lying down for two hours, she got up planning to quickly get ready for work.But standing in front of the mirror, she discovered her right cheek where she'd been hit was completely swollen - makeup definitely wouldn't cover it!After trying various solutions, she could only hide it with a face mask.At the hospital, whenev

After a long silence, William finally said, "Let's change my dressing first.""Okay."Kaylee secretly felt relieved that he didn't press further.After changing his dressing and helping him put his shirt back on, she advised carefully, "The wound is healing well. You can come back the day after tomorrow."William watched her bend down to clean up and asked again, "Are you sure you don't need my help?""No need." Kaylee smiled behind her mask, her eyes crinkling artificially. "Even tigers don't eat their cubs. My father won't do anything to me."Even as she said it, she didn't believe her own words.She had been separated from Andrew before she even started school.In all her early memories, she couldn't find a single piece of evidence that this man had ever shown her fatherly love.He was extremely selfish.Gambling, drinking.When he won at gambling, he'd go drinking, then come home and beat her mother.When he lost and had no money for alcohol, he'd come straight home and

The landlord complained, "What kind of person are you? A doctor with a PhD, and you won't even take care of your own father?""I'm so sorry, I'll get home in about half an hour and take care of everything. Please apologize to the neighbors for me."Kaylee hated nothing more than causing trouble for others.Including neighbors, including landlords.She didn't know how Andrew had found her address, but she couldn't run away anymore - she had to face this.The landlord continued ranting, "I let you rent with just one month's deposit because you seemed like a nice young lady with good education and a good job. Never thought you'd cause so much trouble after just two days. Why don't we end the lease? I'll refund your rent and deposit, just move out tomorrow!""What?" Kaylee was stunned. "Uncle, please listen to me, I'll definitely resolve this properly.""Let me be frank - the neighbors told me everything about reporting your father to the police. He worked hard to put you through sc

This proved William really did keep a low public profile.Seeing Kaylee's hesitation, William said, "Then wait in the car, I'll deal with him.""No, no! Let's go together."Kaylee quickly chose the second option.As they prepared to leave, William pointed to the driver and said, "Give me your suit jacket and car keys, then wait at a distance. Don't stand near the car."Though confused, the driver complied and took off his suit jacket.William was taller than the driver, who was heavier built.Suits were always tailored to fit.The driver's suit looked noticeably ill-fitting on William, making both the clothing and him appear less expensive.They quickly walked to the building.Looking from a distance, Kaylee didn't see anyone, and almost all the stairwell lights were off.She looked up at her apartment.The living room was pitch black, without any light.There probably wasn't anyone there."Maybe everyone's gone..." Kaylee turned to William. "I'll go up and pack some thin
