All Chapters of Silent Devotion: The Billionaire's Patient Love: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

"I won’t have the baby." Kaylee didn’t hesitate. Not even for a second. "Why?" William hadn’t expected such a firm, immediate answer. "Mr. Morgan, you and I are completely different. I don’t have the luxury of being reckless." Her gaze dropped slightly, voice calm but resolute. "I have no family. I spent twenty years studying and have only been working for a year. I still owe my friend thousands of dollars. If I had a baby, I wouldn’t even be able to afford a nanny." William frowned. "Are you assuming I wouldn’t take responsibility? When did I ever give you that impression?" Kaylee exhaled, shaking her head slightly. "I know you’re a good and responsible person. If I had the baby, even if you got married in the future, you probably wouldn’t abandon your child." She looked him in the eye. "But I can’t build my life around probably. If my child’s well-being depends entirely on your kindness, then I’m putting myself in an incredibly passive position." W

"Susanne, that’s not necessary," Kaylee said firmly, pushing the jewelry box back toward her. "I told you—your family doesn’t owe me anything. I lent you the money because I could, and I should." She couldn’t accept this gift. But Susanne made no move to take the box back. Instead, she sighed. "Kaylee, I know you’ve already accepted gifts from William—like that thirty-million-dollar watch—so I guess my little gift must seem insignificant in comparison." Kaylee froze. "What thirty-million-dollar watch?" Her first instinct was that Susanne must have heard some wild rumor. There was no way she had accepted a watch worth thirty million! Susanne studied her expression, then added, "The watch you wore last night—it’s a Patek Philippe antique. A few years ago, it sold at auction for thirty-three million." She hesitated before asking, "You… didn’t know?" Kaylee's mind went blank for a second. "The watch I wore last night?" "Thirty-three… million?" That

"Really? I can go?" Kaylee felt like she'd just won the lottery. Medical conferences like this were usually reserved for the top doctors at the hospital, who would sometimes bring along their protégés. But since she was still relatively new, she'd never been picked before. "You can," Dr. Henderson nodded. "But the flight is at ten tonight. If you're going, wrap up your work, head home to pack, and then get to the airport." He paused before adding, "You'll be back the day after tomorrow." "I'm in!" She had plenty of reasons to go. A conference like this was a goldmine of knowledge. But more importantly, it meant she wouldn't have to stay at William’s place tonight. She’d have some space to clear her head. Dr. Henderson nodded. "Good. I’ve got a surgery to get to, so handle your work and get ready." As soon as he left, Kaylee instinctively reached for her phone to tell William about the trip. But just as she was about to type the message, Susanne’s words surfaced

Kaylee hurried to the check-in counter, scanning the area to make sure Dr. Henderson hadn’t arrived yet. Once she confirmed he wasn’t there, she finally relaxed. She hated being late. Whenever she had an appointment, she always left herself plenty of extra time. About half an hour later, Dr. Henderson arrived, and they boarded the plane together. After a four-hour flight, they landed at Brookshire Airport. As Kaylee made her way to baggage claim, someone tapped her on the shoulder. She turned around to find Emma grinning at her. “You just got off that flight too?” Emma looped her arm around Kaylee’s. “Wait, are you here for the AI-Driven Medical Conference?” Kaylee nodded. “Yeah. I came with my supervisor, but he was in first class, and I was in economy, so he probably left already.” “Ugh, same! I thought private hospitals like yours would at least put you guys in first class.” “My rank’s too low for that.” “Then we gotta work hard! Give it three to five y

"But... I didn't pack anything for the dinner..."Kaylee had assumed this was primarily a conference, and she'd only brought two outfits suitable for meetings."We're about the same size, so wear mine," Emma laughed. "If you want to thank me, you can introduce me to your supervisor later and help me get a job at Honor Medical Center. I'm seriously done with overtime.""I can introduce you, but I really don't need to change clothes."Kaylee was adamant.She didn't want to inconvenience Emma."Then at least let me do your makeup! We've got plenty of time, don't worry!"Emma's makeup things were still scattered on the table. Seeing Kaylee's resolve weakening, she quickly spritzed face mist onto Kaylee's face and deftly clipped back her stray hair with a hairpin.Emma was skilled at makeup, and Kaylee had a great base to work with. In just a few minutes, she'd done a full face of makeup and styled Kaylee's previously tied-back hair into a simple, elegant look.Once everything was
