"Oh, okay."Kaylee quickly opened her phone to scan his contact info.His profile soon appeared on her screen.Once they were connected, Kaylee immediately sent him eight bucks.She bought from there often and knew the price by heart."Money sent.""Got it."William tilted his chin, gesturing for her to get in the car.After a moment's hesitation, Kaylee climbed in.She had barely shifted over when William got in beside her.They were briefly close before Kaylee quickly moved further aside, making sure to leave him plenty of room.She was just getting a ride - she shouldn't crowd the car's owner.William seemed not to notice her reaction and handed her one portion of the tacos. "You couldn't take your eyes off this stand when we drove past earlier.""I'm sorry, I...""Kaylee, you don't need to be so formal with me. No need for 'Mr. Morgan' or such polite language. We might be around each other for a long time, and being so respectful only makes me wonder if I've done some

Kaylee had remembered about this while at the hospital.She'd picked up gauze, cotton swabs, and iodine from the pharmacy.As he was changing into slippers, without looking up, he replied, "Good, get everything ready and come to my room."Kaylee went to her room first.She changed into clean clothes and thoroughly washed her hands using the seven-step method before gathering her supplies to head to William's room.Standing in the living room, she realized a problem.Having just moved in yesterday, she'd only been to the study besides the common areas.Where was William's room?She didn't know.Holding her supplies, she walked down the hallway on the other side, passing the familiar study before continuing forward.She saw a door slightly ajar.She pushed it open and peeked in.William stood sideways near the door, completely shirtless, his belt undone and pants hanging low, held up only by his fit physique.Kaylee froze for a second, her face instantly flushing red. "I'm s

Chapter 53

Kaylee had heard about extortion cases in the news.Small amounts usually meant lighter sentences.But knowing Andrew's nature, he'd definitely demand an outrageous sum."He probably... wouldn't dare extort the Morgan family, or you. He'd only come after me..."Kaylee knew Andrew would do crazy things for money.But he'd never be crazy enough to directly provoke the Morgans - he'd only pressure her.He wouldn't try to fight a battle he couldn't win."He might not be capable himself, but his creditors have been tracking you for their money. It would be simple to make him try to extort me - just let him believe you're my girlfriend."William turned to look at her, his tone and expression particularly serious.Kaylee had already been trying to avoid looking around, focusing only on his face.Hearing his words, she stared at him in disbelief. "Even if I told everyone, nobody would believe it.""I'll protect you. I'll arrange bodyguards at the hospital, drive you to and from work

William firmly handed back the dressings. "I don't know how.""Then I'll come help change them when I can," Kaylee said as she gathered her things, then added seriously, "By the way, the landlord messaged me and returned my money. Thank you."She'd wanted to mention this since first seeing him today.But only now managed to bring it up.Picking up his shirt, she asked, "What do you want to wear? I can get it for you?""I'll do it."William took the shirt and put it on, walking toward the closet.As he changed into his casual top and buttoned his shirt, he walked back to the bed, looking down at her sitting there. "About the landlord - I just had our legal department contact him. He knew he was in the wrong. After just a few words from legal, he immediately apologized.""I see, thank you."Kaylee didn't know what else to say besides thank you."That's two 'thank yous' - noted.""What?!"Kaylee was stunned!Remembering his earlier words, she suspected he'd brought this up ju

"No."Kaylee answered without a moment's hesitation.She had no connection with Alex anymore.Even if he was in trouble now, her answering wouldn't solve anything.Call 911 for emergencies.She wouldn't be like half a month ago, when she'd rushed to see him after hearing he was hurt, despite her exhaustion from performing three surgeries over more than ten hours.As she rejected the call, she also blocked the number.-Alex had just returned home drunk with his friends when he made the call.Completely intoxicated.After the driver helped Lucy get him onto the bedroom sofa in their villa, he left.Lucy sat beside him, covering her nose with one hand, unable to hide her disgust.His shirt still had unclean vomit on it!As the Kingston family's daughter, she'd never had to do dirty work. Dealing with a drunk man's vomit was beyond her!Fortunately, Marianne came up with a bowl of hot tea."Help him change his clothes," Lucy stood up to leave. "I'm going to change too."Befo

"Really? Not because the Morgan family's money could save your family’s failing company?"Alex was half-drunk.Yet in some ways, his mind was unusually clear."You don't believe me? If you don't believe me, why agree to the engagement? Why let your uncle arrange the engagement party - just to toy with me for fun?"Lucy was overwhelmed with hurt, her tears flowing uncontrollably, eyes red from crying.If Alex hadn't been drunk, he would've surely tried to comfort her.But now he didn't even want to move. "The engagement party is our family's event, and we never specified who I had to marry. I could just announce I'm marrying Kaylee instead - she's always wanted to marry me anyway, and my mom wants me to marry her too."Each word was deliberately trampling on Lucy and the Kingston family.Lucy stood up from her chair, tears streaming down her face, looking completely hurt and vulnerable - exactly the look Alex used to love.But now the man before her was unmoved.Just watching

Kaylee froze, stunned that Alex would say something so outrageous in just those few seconds!Seeing Kaylee enter, Susanne clutched at her like a lifeline. "Kaylee, you're here!""I was just doing rounds with the director. Anne is recovering well and can be discharged tomorrow." Kaylee stayed at the doorway, taking just one step inside. "I just came to tell you that. If there's nothing else, I'll be going."She wanted no part in this absurd Morgan family discussion.Nor did she want to speak further with Alex, the selfish young master.To suggest changing the bride to her without even asking - It was the height of arrogance."Kaylee, don't go."Alex tried to sit up in his bed.Susanne quickly stopped him. “Alex, don't move." She turned to grab Kaylee's hand. "Kaylee, I understand how you feel, and I know this isn't fair to you.""Aunt Susanne, I won't marry Alex."Kaylee was firm.She tried to pull her hand away from Susanne's grip twice, unsuccessfully."Kaylee, I know. If

Susanne rushed to cut off her son's words!William's generosity with Alex's engagement party seemed almost too good to be true.Not only was it going to be the most extravagant event, but the guest list read like a who's who of the wealthy and powerful.Practically everyone on the billionaire list had been invited.An event of this scale - Even if it were William's own engagement, it could hardly be more lavish.Alex understood all this. He'd grown tired of Lucy, but as the party details came out, he'd forced himself to put up with it.He finally lost it when he got drunk the other day.During their fight, Lucy had threatened to leave but never did."Yes, yes, I get it now. We can't cancel the party," Alex struggled to sit up, looking at Kaylee. "Just make Kaylee the bride instead. The Morgan family is the main attraction anyway - the bride doesn't matter.""Alex! You..."Kaylee had reached her limit. Just as she was about to snap back at him, she felt a large hand on her s

Kaylee walked hand in hand with William toward the elevator. Along the way, doctors, nurses—pretty much everyone in the gastroenterology department—cast curious glances their way. By the time they stepped into the elevator, Kaylee could feel her face burning like she had a fever. The second the doors slid shut, she quickly pulled her hand away. William glanced at her and said, “Go change. I’ll wait for you in the car.” “Okay. Got it.” She kept her gaze lowered, staring at the tip of her nose, too embarrassed to even look up at him. But she didn’t blame him. She was the one who had asked for his help last night—to work together and put Andrew behind bars. Even if they were only pretending to be a couple, sooner or later, Susanne and Alex would find out. When Kaylee got off on the sixth floor and headed toward her office, she didn’t dare make eye contact with any of her colleagues. She was terrified that someone had already heard the rumors and would start a

Chapter 60

But… In just one week, everything had changed. She had gone from being Alex’s ex to being William’s so-called girlfriend. And William had only made the suggestion to help her get out of this mess. After thinking it through, Kaylee finally nodded. “Alright. I’m supposed to work that day, but I can swap shifts with a colleague.” Private hospitals weren’t too busy, so taking a day off wouldn’t be a problem. William followed up naturally, “I just got off the phone with a friend. If you’re not too tired, we could go check out a place he recommended for dresses. With two days, they should be able to make alterations in time.” “I… Alright, I’m not tired. Let’s go now.” Kaylee had almost turned him down. It was Alex’s engagement party—why would she need to dress up? But then she reconsidered. Most of the guests attending were only there out of respect for William. In a way, that made him one of the main figures of the event. And as his temporary girlfrien
