What Kent did or said after returning to his clinic was unknown to Sheila, and she had no desire to know.She truly did not love Kent.She could not accept him, and she did not want to settle.She and Alex only left the clinic after the busy period had passed.The two of them walked toward Westbrooke Gardens.Looking at the long street lined with shops on both sides, Sheila remembered Alex mentioning that this entire street belonged to his family.“Mr. York, how did your family come to buy up a whole street of shopfronts here?“When was it purchased?”Alex replied, “To be honest, I’m not entirely sure about the details. My eldest cousin’s wife is the one managing these properties now. I’ll have to ask her next time I see her.“Some of our family’s shopfronts were acquired when people who owed us money couldn’t repay us and used the properties to settle their debts.”Sheila said, “If that’s the case, then it must have been quite a long time ago. When this area was first develo

“You... could try a little longer and keep pursuing her. If she still doesn’t accept you after some time, then... I’d advise you to give up. She might never fall for you in this lifetime.”She did not tell him to let go immediately. Instead, she encouraged him to persist a while longer.Even though she loved him deeply and his pursuit of Sheila pained her, she still understood him, empathized with him, supported him, and encouraged him.Was this what love meant?As long as he believed it would bring him happiness, as long as it made him happy, she would support him.Sheila had said that there was someone who truly loved him right beside him, and advised him to cherish the person before him instead of wasting his time on her.Mary was indeed very good. She had joined him when he opened the clinic, and over the years, their affinity with each other had only grown.However, she had two younger brothers. Her parents’ income was not high; they did not have any pensions lined up after

With Dr. Jones’s excellent qualifications, how could she possibly accept a family situation like Dr. Levitt’s?It was only because her own family background was somewhat similar to his that she could understand him and tolerate his relatives constantly seeking him out whenever they fell ill.They were the same kind of people.Dr. Levitt’s heart, however, was set on Dr. Jones.Dr. Jones came from a family of doctors. Her entire family was in the medical field with extensive connections.Dr. Levitt’s affection for Dr. Jones might not necessarily be purely about leveraging the Joneses’ network.However, there was no way someone as intelligent as Dr. Jones would not see through it.“Here, you can have this bouquet.”Kent handed Mary the flowers that Sheila had refused.Then, ignoring her surprised expression, he walked back to his seat and began attending to the two patients.The nurse held the bouquet, glanced at Kent, and felt a pang of bitterness in her heart.Kent did not lo

“Just give up. Please stop sending me flowers and gifts. I won’t accept them.“If you’ve been coming here for my sake, I’d rather you didn’t in the future. If you’re here to consult with my uncle, that’s your business, but I won’t be entertaining you. Who I marry is my own decision. No elder in my family, whoever they may be, can decide for me.”Essentially, she was telling Kent to stop trying to win over her uncle and aunt. It was useless to cozy up to them.They were only her uncle and aunt, not her parents.Even her own parents could not force her to date or marry someone.Though her parents and older brother occasionally urged her to start a relationship, they had also made it clear that it was her choice. They would offer their opinion, but the final decision rested with her.Kent looked at her.His eyes held a pleading expression. He reached out, wanting to take Sheila’s hand, but she avoided him.“Sheila, we’ve known each other for so many years. I liked you from the fir

Kent had not accepted her feelings. However, he did not dismiss her either, allowing her to continue working there. Perhaps Kent was keeping her around as his backup plan.That nurse was two years younger than Sheila and had delicate features, a gentle temperament, and a great deal of patience.Patients who had visited Kent’s clinic all spoke highly of her.She had started working at the clinic right after graduation and had been there for several years. She was undoubtedly aware of Kent’s family situation, and the fact that she still loved him deeply meant she could accept his family background.That was why Sheila said they were a better match.She neither loved Kent nor accepted his family situation, and she had no desire to be an enabling doormat for his family to leech off her infinitely.Even if she reluctantly accepted Kent, and if they were to be together, his constant enabling of his family would inevitably lead to arguments over time, and arguments damaged relationships

If they had children in the future, Kent would be able to look after the kids when Sheila was busy.Sadly, Kent’s family would drag him down. His parents, siblings, and even nephews needed his support. No matter how much money he earned, he could not possibly help his entire family and relatives.Enid had heard that the Levitts’ relatives were unreasonable. They would get medicine from Kent without paying. If Kent could not handle their issues, they would demand that he use his connections and make appointments for them in a big hospital. Getting an appointment was a small matter. The scarier thing was if they did not have enough money to pay for the medical fees and needed Kent to pay out of his own pocket.Sheila was working at the best hospital in Wiltspoon. While Kent’s feelings for her were sincere, he also thought her job was favorable to him. It would be easier for him to make arrangements for his relatives to see doctors or get hospitalized in Wiltspoon General Hospital
