“Do you get tired? Don’t you feel annoyed? I think you must be, because you can’t stand me helping my family.“It’s just that you can’t fight back. You keep compromising and tolerating your relatives because of your vanity. You want everyone to know how capable you are and let your parents brag about you back home.“I’m not scared to say that we’re in the same boat. That’s why we’re more suitable for each other. Dr. Jones has a great family. All of them are successful, so she doesn’t need to help them financially like us.“She’ll never tolerate our actions. Once or twice might be fine, but not countless times.“Getting a partner who’s equal in social status isn’t just a saying. It’s really important. I know you really like Dr. Jones, but I believe there are selfish reasons behind it too. You’re thinking that you can have her arrange your relatives’ medical appointments after you marry her. You can also find better doctors to treat your relatives and friends, which will reflect your

Kent leaned against the car and observed Mary’s side profile.She was not as beautiful as Sheila, but she was not ugly either. In terms of look, he and Mary did make a good pair.“Live for yourself from now on, Mary. Save up your salary. You’re not that young anymore. Life after marriage will be difficult if you don’t have some money saved up.“Providing for your adoptive parents is acceptable, but your brothers aren’t your responsibility. You don’t have to care about them.”Mary glanced at him, then stared at her car blankly without saying a word. Kent continued giving her a lecture on life.“You don’t even earn much every month. You refuse to spend too much on yourself, even though you’ve worked tirelessly, yet you’ll transfer all your money to your mom as soon as she calls. You even borrowed some money from your colleagues or me when you’re short.“I think you can give your family a few hundred dollars when they need it. However, you should tell them you don’t have enough mo

Kent despised Mary’s family, yet he had forgotten that his family was in the same situation.As Mary had mentioned, they were more suited for each other.“This is annoying.”Kent let out a self-deprecating laugh. He grabbed the bottle and filled his glass with more alcohol. He asked Mary, “Do you want some? I can continue drinking. Why don’t we drink together till we’re drunk?“I can give you a day off tomorrow if you don’t think you can work.”Mary said, “You’re already drunk, Dr. Levitt. “I can’t drink alcohol. We won’t be able to go home if I do. I need to drive.”After Kent emptied one glass, Mary snatched his glass and said, “Stop drinking. Let’s go.”She stood and pulled Kent to help him get up.Although Kent put up slight resistance, he still let Mary lead him outside.Before they reached the door, Kent suddenly felt his stomach churn. He got nauseous and wanted to puke.Unable to hold it in, he immediately covered his mouth and ran toward the bathroom.It was a bar

“You know Dr. Jones doesn’t love you, Dr. Levitt. Why are you doing this?”Mary’s heart ached. She said, “Can’t I take you home? Are you scared that I might do something to you?“Don’t worry. I’ll wait till the day you’re willing to accept me. I won’t have sex with you when you’re drunk. I’m not capable of doing such a thing.”Kent’s face was slightly flushed.It seemed like Mary’s words had hit the mark.Kent knew Mary liked him. However, he loved Sheila deeply.He felt like he and Sheila were made for each other.To be honest, he had planned to pursue her not long after he knew her. However, she had a boyfriend at that time.He could not step in between them and ruin their relationship.When Sheila’s boyfriend got together with someone of higher status and broke up with Sheila, Kent was overjoyed.He took the opportunity to console her and criticized her ex-boyfriend harshly in front of her.For the past few years, he had been taking care of her and visiting her family eve
Chapter 4920
Though Sheila did not love Kent and had rejected him, the two had known each other for many years and shared a senior-junior relationship.She did not want Kent to disrespect Alex because he saw the latter as a love rival and ended up being suppressed by the York family.In the eyes of ordinary people, Kent was very successful. To a powerful, wealthy family like the Yorks, however, Kent was just a small ant. If they wanted to crush his career or screw him over, it would be effortless for them.Even though she knew the York family had good values and raised their children to be fair and not abuse their power, Sheila still pleaded for leniency on Kent’s behalf in advance.Alex said, “Don’t worry, I won’t bully others with my power. I’m quite broad-minded. Kent is just jealous that you’re nice to me, which is why he sees me as a rival and is rude to me.”Sheila smiled. “I do know that you’re a magnanimous person. I’m just overthinking it.”“You still care quite a bit about Kent, don

“Mary, he’s drunk and not in his right mind. He probably won’t even remember who took him home.“There’s no need for me to go, and I don’t have the time to do so either.“Please take good care of him.”After saying this, Sheila hung up.The movie started.Alex asked in concern, “What’s wrong?”“Kent got drunk at Supreme Bar. The bar staff called Mary—that nurse who likes him—and Mary called me, asking me to pick Kent up and take him home.“He’s probably drunk because I’ve rejected him repeatedly, but I really can’t go and take him home.“If I go, he’ll think I feel sorry for him, that I’ve softened, and that he still has a chance. He’ll become even more unwilling to let go and give up. But I truly can’t return his feelings. I don’t love him.”Alex assured, “You’re doing the right thing. If you don’t love him, don’t give him hope. Since someone has already gone to pick him up, there’s no need to worry about him.”In fact, he would rather go in Sheila’s stead than have her pick
