“Hey, now. You’re not bad-looking at all, okay? You’re the type whose looks grow on the beholder; the more they look, the prettier you get. Plus, you look very healthy and pure.“Gives off a very affable air. Maybe the eighth young master of the York family just likes your type.”Sheila was speechless for a moment. “I seriously suspect you came back this time to urge me on Mom and Dad’s behalf to settle down as soon as possible.“So, now that you see a guy coming to see me, you’re imagining he’s pursuing me.”She absolutely refused to believe that Alex liked her.Ivor chuckled, “Alright, let’s stop speculating about it. If he really is interested in you, he’ll definitely come looking for you again later, just like Kent.“If he only comes this once and we never see him again, then I was overthinking it.“Come on, let's go downstairs. He’s waiting on the first floor.”After taking a couple of steps, Ivor added, “But, Sheila, if he really is interested in you, what would you do? W

Ivor went upstairs and walked up to Sheila’s room door. He knocked as he called through it, “Are you up, Sheila?”“I’m up.” Sheila had already changed out of her pajamas and was about to go downstairs to have her meal before heading to work. She walked over to pull open the door.“Is it time to eat, Ivor?” Sheila thought her brother was there to wake her and tell her to eat.“I’m on night shifts, so I always get up around this time.” She walked out of her room with a smile on her face. “Because my stomach wakes me up.”However, Ivor said, “Alex York is here. He brought a bouquet of flowers and even said he’s giving you a banner at the hospital tomorrow.”“Alex York?” Sheila was taken aback. “Why is he here? How does he know we live here?”She had only spoken to Alex a little bit before, during her rounds in the hospital. Usually, she was too busy, and he was meant to be recuperating, so they had not interacted much. She remembered she had never told him where she lived.In fact,

This was a clinic, and he was carrying a bouquet, so he was evidently not here for treatment.He must be another one of his sister’s suitors. At least he was better-looking than Kent and could serve as eye candy. It was just that his hands were bandaged… and were obviously injured.“May I know who you’re looking for, mister?” Ivor got up to greet him, a professionally polite smile on his face.“Hi. May I know if Dr. Sheila Jones lives here?”Alex appraised Ivor at the same time Ivor was appraising him.He guessed that Ivor must be Sheila’s relative from the resemblance he bore to her.Sheila had an older brother, but he was not based in Wiltspoon. She did, however, have a few cousins on her father’s side who were. The youngest of those was still in high school.“And you are?” Ivor did not immediately answer Alex’s question and instead asked who he was.Alex smiled as he introduced himself. “I’m Alex York, a patient of Dr. Jones. She saved my hands, and now, I’m almost fully hea

Rowan laughed. “Nah, it’s fine. It’s their business, I’m not going to poke my nose into it.”He knew the head missus of the York family had to manage quite a few smaller businesses. The profits from those businesses were for the ladies who married into the York family to spend, and for covering the various expenses the manor came with.The men would handle the external affairs, while the women would handle the internal, so the men just needed to manage the family business well.The two brothers entered Westbrooke Gardens and looked at several places.In the end, Alex bought a penthouse unit. He signed the contract and paid the deposit on the spot.When they left Westbrooke Gardens, however, Rowan was left alone. Alex had said he wanted to check out the area alone to familiarize himself with the surroundings.Rowan felt that something was off about Alex, but could not pinpoint it. He had no choice but to head back to Wildridge Manor by himself.Once he was back at the manor, Rowa

Alex spotted the signage of the Joneses’ family clinic.However, they passed it by very quickly because Rowan was driving fast.Alex did not even manage to look at the clinic properly.It did not matter. He was going to buy a house there anyway. If he were to fall sick in the future, he would contribute to the business of the Joneses’ family clinic. Of course, he would only go over when Sheila was helping out at the clinic.Alex could do whatever Kent had done.He also knew how to establish his presence and start pursuing Sheila.With his background and qualifications, Alex felt the Joneses would like him. Kent could step aside.Sheila harbored no feelings for Kent.They were simply a senior and a junior and had known each other for a long time. If Sheila liked Kent, they would have gotten together a long time ago.Sheila also did not like her colleague, who used to be her coursemate as well.“This street is pretty crowded. There are companies and schools nearby, as well as m

Rowan replied, “Okay. I’ll view the houses with you now. If it’s really good, I’ll buy one for myself and live opposite you. We can have each other as company.”“I think you shouldn’t buy a house on Westbrooke Street.”Alex was only buying a house there because he wanted to be closer to Sheila. Rowan was lazy. If he bought a house on Westbrooke Street, he would have to wake up early to go to work. If he chose not to live there, he would have to leave the house empty or rent it out instead.The York family did not need that small amount of rent.“You usually reach the company at the last possible minute. You also said that the location isn’t convenient to travel to the company.“Speaking of which, you used to be very diligent when you were studying, Rowan. Why are you so lazy now? You sleep in every day. If you aren’t working or going anywhere during the weekends, you’ll just sleep at home.”Alex cared about his little brother. He was worried that Rowan’s lethargy was related
