Sheila pushed the bouquet away. She said apologetically, “I won’t accept your flowers, Kent. You don’t have to buy them for me anymore.”Alex went to stand beside her discreetly. He simply stared at Kent. Kent did not like seeing Alex beside Sheila. They looked good together.“Who’s this, Sheila?”At that moment, Kent no longer treated Alex as a patient.He did not know whether they came together, but they did enter the clinic one after another.Besides, Alex looked like Sheila’s knight as he stood beside her and stared at Kent with a defensive gaze.Sheila turned to look at Alex. She replied, “He used to be my patient.“Please take a seat, Mr. York. I have some private matters to handle. We can head to Westbrooke Gardens to take a look at my house.”Alex said gently, “Okay.”He walked over to greet Marvin and Enid.The patients who were waiting for their turn came to a realization as they watched the scene unfold. After eyeing Alex, a regular asked Enid, “Is this your ni

Dr. Sheila was working at Wiltspoon General Hospital. It was the best hospital in the city. While she was not earning as much as she would have compared to running her own clinic, she was still young. She could work in big hospitals for about ten years and accumulate experience before opening her own clinic. That way, she could gain her patients’ trust.“Dr. Sheila is great. You have a good eye, Dr. Levitt.”That person praised Kent and teased Marvin. He said, “It’s great that your student is becoming your nephew-in-law, Dr. Marvin.”Kent had always sought guidance from Marvin. Although it was unofficial, they could be considered teacher and student.Patients who often went to the Joneses’ family clinic knew about Marvin and Kent’s relationship. Marvin glanced at Kent as he examined the patient’s throat and lungs. He said, “Sheila didn’t accept his confession. They might not get together. It’s okay to mention it in front of me, but please don’t tease my niece.“She’s easily em

“He’ll tell you what materials you need and their quantity. You just have to buy them.”Alex looked grateful. He said, “Since I’m recuperating, I have time to handle the renovation stuff. Decorating my own house gives it a different meaning.”They had arrived at the hospital. Sheila got on her e-bike and only let Alex get on when she was out of the parking lot. The parking lot at the hospital had too many onlookers and was inconvenient. Alex sat behind Sheila on the e-bike. He asked worriedly, “I’m pretty heavy, Dr. Jones. Are you sure you can give me a ride?”“You’re almost the same height and weight as my brother. If he can be my passenger, you can too. I just hope you don’t find this embarrassing.”Alex laughed. “There’s nothing to be embarrassed about.“No one knows who I am. It’s not as if I have a label stuck on my head announcing that I’m a young master of the Yorks.“Besides, riding an e-bike isn’t embarrassing so long as we obey the traffic rules. Any sort of veh

“I bought the best environmentally friendly materials. The handymen were also great. Their work was of good quality. Many people are waiting to hire them for their renovations.“However, I had to arrange accommodations in the city for them because they came from the countryside. They wouldn’t have been able to do anything if they had to go back and forth. It’s a waste of petrol too.“During the renovation, I rented a nearby house for the handymen and terminated it once the work was done. It was an older building and didn’t cost a lot per month.”Alex said, “I also plan to buy the materials and hire workers myself. If your handymen did a great job, can you recommend them to me, Dr. Jones?“I’ll arrange accommodations. The salary is also negotiable.”York Corporation used to be involved in the real estate industry. They had plenty of construction and renovation teams. Alex also did not have to buy everything himself. He could have simply entrusted the task to his butler. However,

Of course, if York Corporation were to go bankrupt, it would shake up the business world in Wiltspoon and cause many small and medium enterprises to close down.“We should also change up our strategies continuously to keep up with current trends. Otherwise, we’ll be eliminated easily.“Being part of the management is stressful. The company might be fine during our time, but what about the next generation?“Nana said nothing lasts forever. If York Corporation were to have a crisis, we would have to do our best to salvage it while mentally preparing ourselves for failure and facing everything calmly.”Sheila said, “I’ve heard many stories about your grandmother. Whether in higher society or among ordinary people, everyone only has praises for her.“I believe your grandmother is a great woman who brought immense luck to your family.”Alex laughed. “My nana is great. We grew up with our grandparents because our parents were busy with work when we were young. They took up the responsi

Alex truly thought the sausages were delicious. Besides, it was the woman he liked who bought him the meal. He could even eat two more servings. “If my chief didn’t mention it, I wouldn’t believe that you came from a wealthy family. You’re too down-to-earth, humble, and approachable.”Alex smiled. “That’s because you don’t understand us. Although our family has a lot of money, my brothers and I grew up with our grandparents. Most people of their generation are hardworking and able to endure hardships.“Our grandparents raised us strictly. My brothers and I had our fair share of struggles. Nana always says that only those who have endured the most difficult hardships can become the best of the best.“We couldn’t be picky about food either. We didn’t dare because Nana would hit us with her cane.“There’s also independence. Nana wanted us to be responsible for ourselves. We also had to pick up many skills. You probably have heard that my brothers and I are actually pretty good a
