James seemed like a completely different person after his problems were solved.Gone was the man burdened with depression and sorrow when he first arrived at the hospital. Instead, he was now confident, cheerful, and always willing to help others.Everyone in the hospital grew to like him."I think you’re ready to be discharged," Dr. Anderson said with a smile. "If you feel ready, I can return your phone now."To ensure a distraction-free recovery, James had handed over his phone to Anderson before the surgery.James smiled as he accepted the phone and turned it on.Almost immediately, a video notification popped up."Following the appointment of Wendy as the new CEO of the Bundred Group, the company has been mired in a moral scandal. The Bundred Group’s stock prices plummet, sparking strong dissatisfaction among shareholders…"James stared at the news, his mind momentarily blank.The Bundred Group… Wendy…Before he could fully process the information, the door to his ward bu

"Don’t worry. I’ll talk to Ms. Bundred," Jessica said as she took off her apron, comforting James."If you don’t want to agitate him, then come outside with me to talk," she added, walking over to Wendy and firmly grabbing her arm. "Stop provoking him.""You know who I am," Wendy said angrily as they sat in the cafe downstairs. "I’m his wife!""You used to be," Jessica replied calmly. "And he has already forgotten everything. James is someone who always follows through on what he decides to do. If he chose such a drastic method, you must have hurt him deeply."Wendy suddenly felt a lump in her throat.James’s willpower was stronger than anyone else’s. He was more tolerant than anyone.And when he left, he would be more ruthless than anyone."I want to talk to him, to have a proper conversation," said Wendy, struggling to keep her voice steady. "You have to agree to this! Don’t forget, we’ve only signed the divorce agreement. The final registration hasn’t been completed yet! Jess

Sean’s once-prized handsome face was disfigured.The hardware on that luxury-brand bag was incredibly sturdy. Coupled with the full force used to strike him, the wound was deep enough to expose bone.Wendy spared no expense, pouring a fortune into treatment, but scarring was inevitable.“The wound has been stitched up, but even with current cosmetic procedures, it can’t be fully repaired.”Jessica shook her head as she read the message from a friend back in the homeland.You reap what you sow.“What’s going on?”James approached, holding a cup. “Who sent you a message?”“My family,” said Jessica, curling up on the sofa and intertwining her fingers with his.“They heard that you agreed to be with me and want to meet you.”She lifted his hand and kissed the back of it. “I’ve been single for so many years, they were almost losing their minds. Now that I have you, they’re overjoyed.”“Meeting the family already?” James teased with a laugh. “Do you like me that much?”Jessica ra

James wanted to register their marriage in Jelaston.Having grown up there, he had a special attachment to the city.At his insistence, he chartered a plane for Jessica.“There’s no need to be so nervous. I feel fine,” said Jessica, walking ahead with a relaxed stride while James followed closely behind, pushing their luggage with a tense expression.By the time their vehicle left the airport, night had fallen.Snowflakes began drifting down from the sky.The car’s heater was on high, but Jessica suddenly felt stuffy and cracked the window slightly to let in some fresh air.A car's headlights pierced through the snow ahead. As the two vehicles passed each other, a familiar profile flashed by in an instant.Screech—The sudden sound of brakes shattered the quiet of the road.The black car came to a halt, snowflakes accumulating on its roof.Wendy’s heart raced as she lowered her window and stared at the rearview mirror.Cold wind rushed into the car, and her eyes began to bu
