Sheila stood up as well. She walked Alex out. However, Alex told her it was alright and walked in the direction of Westbrooke Gardens. Sheila watched him walk out of sight before turning to go back into the clinic.The lady who helped cook for them had already come downstairs to call them upstairs for dinner.“Did Mr. York walk here? Didn’t he drive?” Ivor glanced in the direction Alex had vanished and asked.“Well, he came by to look at properties to buy, so his car must be parked at Westbrooke Gardens. No, wait, his hands aren’t fully healed yet, so he probably didn’t drive.“Though he should already be well enough to drive, actually,” Sheila replied as she walked. “Anyway, who cares? Rich young masters like him always have drivers when they go out. They hardly need to drive themselves.“His eldest cousin even goes everywhere with several bodyguards—it’s even more of a parade.”Ivor remarked, “I’ve heard he does that, but it’s not to parade his wealth or anything like that. I

Enid stood up to get some fruits.Seeing her niece getting along well with Alex, Enid felt even more hospitable toward him.She already had a very favorable impression of this young man in the first place.“Mr. York, have some fruit,” Enid said with a smile, urging Alex to eat.“How is your injury, Mr. York? It shouldn’t be too serious anymore, right?” Enid asked concernedly.Alex replied, “It’s much better, thanks to Dr. Jones using the good stuff on me. I’m recovering very well. The dressing was changed when I was discharged, and Dr. Jones said I could remove the gauze in a few days. I won’t need to keep it bandaged anymore.”Sheila laughed, “How is that credit due to me?”His injury had not been that serious to begin with. It was just a bit of a flesh wound.Only these young masters from wealthy families, pampered since childhood, would stay in the hospital for so long, even though it was just a minor injury.Alex could have had the gauze removed already, but he did not wan

To the other Joneses, Alex said he had come to express his thanks. However, to Sheila, he said his main purpose was house-hunting, and knowing this was her home, he decided to stop by to thank her for her care during his hospital stay.The Joneses all looked at Alex. Ivor felt that Alex definitely had some interest in his sister.Sheila, however, did not overthink it. What she found curious was why Alex had come here to buy a house. There were no villa districts in this area. Given Alex’s status and position, if he were buying property, it should be a villa.“You came to look at properties?” Sheila sat down next to her brother and asked curiously, “Which ones did you view? Are you planning to buy a place nearby?”Alex said, “I went to Westbrooke Gardens and found a nice penthouse that I liked. I’ve already paid the deposit. I’ll pay the balance when we complete the paperwork.”“Westbrooke Gardens? Oh, that’s a nice place. Our family also has an apartment there, but we usually live

“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
