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

“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

Why do I accumulate points and the next day they start disappearing and I haven’t moved to the next chapter? This is disappointing to me
This “so called book” is never going to end! I’m so tired of pouring money into this nonsense. This author’s profits are probably unreal after she’s sucked all of us into the story. She needs to stop wandering off through all of the grandkids lives and wrap it up already!!
