Sheila went to her room as soon as she got upstairs. Before she could close the door, Enid knocked on it. When Sheila saw her aunt, she asked, “Why haven’t you gone to bed, Aunt Enid?”“How can I fall asleep when you aren’t home yet? Your uncle and I are your guardians while your parents aren’t around. We can’t sleep when you’re still outside.”Enid entered the room with a smile and sat beside Sheila. She asked, “How was the movie?”“It was great.”“Did you come back right after watching the movie?”“Yeah. It was already ten o’clock when we exited the cinema. Since Alex and I have to work tomorrow, we decided to head home to rest. That way, we’ll be in good spirits while working tomorrow.“Alex had suggested grabbing a late-night snack, but I rejected him because I don’t eat late-night snacks unless I’m on night shifts.”Enid nodded. She knew her niece was strict about her diet.“Alex must’ve brought you back. Why didn’t you invite him in for a cup of tea?”“Look at the time.

“Your sisters didn't get married to doctors themselves. Their husbands have different jobs.“Sheila's partner can have any profession, so long as she likes him.”Enid added, “Anyway, I think Alex has a good chance. You should stop helping Kent secretly. Sheila doesn't even like him.”Marvin said, “I didn't help Kent that much. He does have some talent when it comes to wooing ladies. I only gave him some advice whenever he had questions. Having done it for two years, he feels like a student to me.“I can't do anything if Sheila doesn't like him. In my opinion, her ex-boyfriend, who left her for someone of a higher status, hurt her too deeply. That's why she hasn't dared to start a new relationship.“Sheila's feelings take priority. If she really likes Alex, that's fine too. It's better than her staying single for the rest of her life.”Marvin cared a lot about his niece. He was worried that she would not dare to get married after getting hurt in her previous relationship.Sheila

“Your family should have a family doctor, right?”Sheila heard that wealthy families would hire a family doctor, who would handle most minor illnesses, so there was no need to go to the hospital.If wealthy people had to visit the hospital, it would mean they had a serious health issue.“Yes, but I trust your skills more.”Sheila smiled. “You’re overestimating me. I’m a young doctor who hasn’t yet gained the trust of many patients. Usually, patients only come to see me for consultations when I’m on duty, as other doctors have their hands full.“They only come to me because they’re in a hurry.”However, things had gotten better. Sheila was truly talented and had grown up among doctors. She had heard and seen many things since she was young, and had experience assessing patients before she even graduated. Sometimes, she would attend to patients at her family clinic when Marvin was not around.Patients who consulted her later realized she was thorough and prescribed the correct m

Mary learned medicine. She was aware of that fact. It was also confirmed at that moment.In the end, she gave up, but did not leave, instead choosing to lie on the bed with Kent fully clothed. She wondered how he would react when he woke up the next day.On the other hand, Sheila was unaware of what was happening. She simply knew Mary would look after Kent and take him home. It was already ten at night by the time she and Alex exited the cinema after watching a movie.He suggested going for a late-night snack, but she rejected the idea.“I don’t eat late-night snacks unless I’m on night shifts. I don’t want to gain weight.”Alex smiled. “I don’t eat late-night snacks often either. When there are events, I’ll only drink a glass or two of wine and not eat much.“You must be very disciplined in terms of your lifestyle, Dr. Jones.”Sheila was still thinking about the movie’s contents. As she walked, she replied, “I guess so. After all, I’m a doctor who knows how one’s lifestyle

The master bedroom had the largest area out of the entire unit.The interior design of Kent’s room was simple but elegant. However, upon entering the room, Mary spotted a wall filled with Sheila’s photographs. Those pictures were enlarged and pasted on the wall. There were pictures from Sheila’s younger and recent days. Needless to say, Kent had secretly taken pictures of Sheila and developed them to be pasted in his room. Looking at the wall filled with Sheila’s pictures, Mary was depressed. It was a hard blow. She moved Kent to his bed but lost her strength at the last moment. Her grip loosened, and he fell onto the bed.“Do you love Dr. Jones that much? I can’t believe you took so many pictures of her and even printed them out to be stuck on your walls,” said Mary bitterly.There was also a group photo on the bedside table. The people in the pictures were most likely Kent and Sheila’s coursemates. He stood pretty close to Sheila, with only one person in between them.With ho

It was silent inside the car. Kent started snoring. He had fallen asleep. It was easier to fall asleep when one was drunk.Mary turned up the heater, worried Kent would catch a cold.Did he understand their conversation properly?Mary hoped he could let go of his feelings for Sheila. Sheila would never accept him. She already had another person by her side. Although Mary had never met Alex York, she knew he was a handsome man from Kent’s words. Kent still did not know much about Alex’s family background, but all the shop lots along Westbrooke Street belonged to his cousin’s wife.Kent kept saying that Alex was a useless man who mooched off his cousin and his cousin’s wife, and that he was scamming many girls with his good looks.He also said Sheila would be deceived by Alex’s handsome face.Kent complained that he could not win Enid’s favor despite having gone to the Joneses’ clinic every day, yet Enid was on Alex’s side as soon as she met him.He blamed women for being ob
