Thinking that Denise was shy after hearing her response to his words, Doctor Keagan immediately looked at her as if to say, ‘It's okay, I understand.’Then, with a chuckle, he intoned. “Okay then, I get it. I hope your relationship blossoms and remember to inform me when you've settled on a date to get married.”With that, he left with a folder of medical records in hand and headed to the wards downstairs to do his rounds.Denise still felt really shy but she couldn't rush forward to chase after the doctor and explain it to him, causing her to stand in place with her head down, already nursing the thought of having the ground open up to swallow her. Then, instinctively, she raised her head to look at Elijah, and for some reason, she suddenly felt her face getting warmer.Elijah could tell how awkward Denise was feeling so he changed the topic. “Let's go visit your father. You can also inform him about the good news so that he can relax and recuperate well.”Denise immediately nodded

Jamie didn't dare to say anything else as he understood that even if he wanted to threaten Elijah, he couldn't do so.He was so frustrated that he was about to lose his mind.“What are you waiting for?... For me to give you another slap?” Elijah glared at Jamie with a cold and hostile gaze, making Elijah subconsciously shudder. Meanwhile, the commotion caused by the two men clashing had alarmed many people in the wards at the very beginning.Because the inpatient wing of the hospital was supposed to be kept quiet at all times to allow patients to rest and recuperate properly, the slightest noise would be heard clearly even if it came from afar.In particular, when Jamie and his bodyguards charged forward to confront Elijah, his arrogant and furious bellowing almost responded through the entire floor.When they got into a scuffle, many people hurried out of the wards.They glared furiously at them for creating such a huge ruckus and wanted to demand that they quiet down.But after hea

Doctor Keagan's eyes widened in shock as she heard what Denise said.For a moment, silence persisted, and none spoke, neither able to meet the eyes of the other until finally, Doctor Keagan regained her composure and muttered in a somewhat awkward tone.“I see… that's quite an unfortunate turn of events.”***Roughly an hour later, Elijah returned home only to discover that Alice's car had broken down on the way home.“Where is it now?” Elijah asked with Alice letting out a sigh as she replied. “I left it at the mechanic. According to what he said, it might take a while before it gets fixed.”“I see.” Elijah pursed his lips, having not expected such an unfortunate incident to occur out of the blue.“It has been with me for a while so it's rather painful that it broke down the way it did. I guess I'll have to be taking the bus until it gets fixed.”“What about my car?” Elijah asked with Alice responding.“I don't exactly like the way it looks.” Elijah was taken aback by her candid re

The finance manager, after slapping Desiree, scolded her. “That's enough, Desiree!... Joe dare you treat my customer like this?... Mr. Silva bought this car in full just now. You left to work for Corvette last month and I've yet to settle the score with you. Now you dare to yell at my customer?... You are asking for trouble, young lady!”Finnick Melvin, the finance manager of the Bugatti dealership, was furious.In truth, he already had a bone to pick with Desiree, mainly because she had stolen much of his clientele and brought them to her new job.Desiree, however, was unrepentant as she covered her red cheek and pointed at Finnick, remarking. “Who do you think you are to hit me like that!?”“Me?... You stood in my customer's way and disrespected him!” Finnick roared, sending shivers down Desiree’s spine.Then, he turned to Elijah and with a respectful smile, remarked. “Mr. Silva, I apologize for all of this. Shall I escort you?”Elijah smiled faintly and replied. “No need. Let's jus

With both her father and Doctor Keagan asking her to get some rest, Denise had no choice but to accept their suggestions.And so, soon, she was on her way out of the hospital with Doctor Keagan accompanying her. They parted ways at the entrance of the hospital and went in different directions only for something to suddenly happen.With the ear-piercing screech of car tires coming to a sudden halt, a pure black Mercedes Benz suddenly pulled over beside Denise.Then, the doors swung open and a pair of large hands reached out to grab Denise and drag her into the backseat of the car. Doctor Keagan happened to see this in the corner of his eyes and immediately exclaimed in shock. “Denise!”Everything happened way too quickly.Denise didn't even have the time to scream.Before she knew it, someone swiftly covered her mouth and dragged her into the car.The next second, the car door slammed shut with a loud bang and the engine of the Mercedes Benz roared before it sped off quickly.The ent
