2024-03-17 22:00:42In Walter’s office at the Andrade Clinic, a family conversation was unfolding. Walter, now in formal attire, sat behind his desk, while his mother and younger sister stood nearby.
“Mom, sis, please sit down,” Walter suggested.
“I’m quite comfortable standing,” Emmanuelle replied.
“I’ve watched more episodes of that Korean drama, and now I want to improve blood circulation in my legs,” Jacqueline chimed in with a playful tone.
Walter chuckled. “You two are such teasers. Any news?”
“It’s Jacque who has to tell you that,” Emmanuelle hinted.
Curious, Walter turned his attention to Jacqueline. “Jacque...”
Jacqueline blushed, feeling a bit nervous. “Oh, goodness... you guys are making me nervous...”
“Let me guess: Zachary Loss visited you today and sent you flowers?”
Emmanuelle burst into laughter, and Jacque

Chapter 1164 Insecticide Against Pests
Matthew and Patricia fueled Ernesto’s fertile imagination while still talking in Ronaldo’s office.Patricia looked serious. “Matt, I need to know if I can move on with my life.”“Not only can you, you should,” Matthew smiled kindly. “Why would I stop you?”“I don’t know.” Patricia lowered her head. “Part of me will always see you as my owner.”“You’re free, Patty,” Matthew caressed her face. “I freed you from the burden of being Mrs. Sterling. I’d hate to see you treated the way my family treats Elaine.”Patricia smirked mockingly. Matthew pities HER, but not ELAINE, the LEGITIMATE WIFE??“I think that if I were still around, your family wouldn’t complain. But our lives got lost along the way...” Patricia faltered. “I just don’t see the possibility of us loving each other again.”“Neither do I,” Matthew admitted.They’ve been alone all this time, and Matthew still didn’t feel like hugging or kissing her.In his mind, only his firstborn son exists...“And I won’t do anything to hinder
Chapter 1163 Elaine Seeks Nathan
Cindy was not at all pleased with Elaine wanting to talk to Nathan.“Nate, you need to be more careful,” she insisted. “Didn’t you say you wanted to lead a calmer, low-key life?”Elaine was outraged. “Are you implying that I’m going to bring problems to him again?”“I’m not implying; I’m saying it outright.” Cindy smiled maliciously.“Ladies, please,” Nathan stood up. “Cindy, I’ll see what Elaine wants and get back to you later.”“Alright. Anything, I’ll be in my office.” Cindy shot a stern look at Elaine before leaving.Elaine sighed exaggeratedly. “Phew! I thought she’d never leave.”Nathan smiled like a boy. “What is it, Elaine? Did you finally admit that I’m the father of—”“SSSHHH!” Elaine gestured desperately, looking toward the door. She whispered, “You careless! What if Cindy is eavesdropping behind the door?”Nathan didn’t just suspect. He went to the door and opened it, confirming no one was listening. “The coast is clear.”“No, I didn’t come to talk about my baby,” Elaine s
Chapter 1162 Didn’t Feel Passion Back Again
Matthew decided to go to Silva Oil Company to personally check on the current matter. Walking through the hallways, he could feel the tension and postponed expectations of the employees, fearful of the company’s future and their jobs. Finding Patricia organizing some files in Ronaldo’s office, he checked his core, trying to see if he felt anything. Matthew was surprised to realize that his heart wasn’t pounding strongly nor did he feel passion erupt from within him. No, he no longer loved Patty... Patricia noticed his presence and smiled. “Matt! What good winds bring you here? How can I help you?” Matthew cautiously approached. “Aren’t you afraid to be here, in this place, where your ex-fiancé threw a chair out the window?” Patricia shook her head. “That’s in the past. Now, Ron is in Lagoon City finally receiving the mental treatment he should have had centuries ago. Maybe, our love story would still be active.” “Patty, Ron’s mental instability has nothing to do with him cheat
Chapter 1161 No Panic, Cool Mind
Jacqueline wasn’t surprised when Matthew announced that Elaine had changed her mind and decided to accompany him to her wedding party. It was Matthew who thought Jacqueline would make a scene at Sterling University Square. Enjoying her grilled cheese sandwich, Jacqueline sarcastically asked, “Oh, really? Your dear wife changed her mind... how interesting.” “You don’t want her to attend?” Matthew tried to read between the lines. “I want YOU there, Matt.” Jacqueline chewed and swallowed. “I don’t really care about the other one.” “No.” Matthew became serious. “You care about Patty’s presence. If she declines the invitation because of me, will you be upset with me?” “I would never be upset with you.” Jacqueline smiled sweetly. “And I can assure you Patty will go to the wedding. There will be new, interesting guys for her to meet – men with functioning minds.” “My father won’t like that.” Matthew smiled lightly. “Your father can’t force either of you to do anything, even though de
Chapter 1160 Linda Confirms Her Suspicions
Matthew meets Jacqueline in Sterling University Square. She was taking a break to snack at the kiosk. Clayton was handing her a grilled cheese sandwich. “Enjoy it, Miss Andrade.” “Thanks. Have you decided about my wedding?” Jacqueline asked sweetly. “It will be a joyful occasion, my dear.” Clayton didn’t quite understand. “Ha, ha... I meant if YOU’RE going to my wedding.” Jacqueline thought Clayton was joking. Clayton almost had a heart attack, so startled he was. “WHAT?! No, Miss Andrade; I am leprous!” Matthew approached, also giggling. “Don’t worry, Clayton. You’ll be on the bride’s side.” Jacqueline smiled wider when she saw Matthew. “Matt, it’s always a pleasure to see you without your boring wife!” “AHEM...” Clayton was embarrassed. “Hello, Matt. Do you want me to go to this beautiful girl’s wedding?” “I think you’re privileged because of me. Enjoy!” Matthew put his arm around the fiancée. “Alright, I will! With the money I make from the snack bars, I’ll buy a brand ne
Chapter 1159 Trying to Understand the Doctor
Walter, sitting comfortably at his desk, continued talking with Matthew about his wife’s dilemma. “What did Jacque say about this?” Matthew asked cautiously. “Jacque is in class at her university,” Walter replied curtly. “But I believe she’ll take it all in stride. The important thing is that YOU are at her wedding party.” “You’re going to be the best man, right? I’ve heard it’s supposed to be me.” Matthew made a face. “You’re going to be the best man at MY wedding, man.” Walter chuckled in camaraderie. Linda came in, still anxious about the scene Mauricio had with her earlier. “Walt, I had to reschedule Dr. de Paula’s entire appointment schedule because he decided not to come in the morning,” Linda informed in a low voice, with a tone of guilt. Walter noticed this and became even more outraged. “Why do you look so guilty? It wasn’t you who told the doctor to sleep late, was it?” Matthew comforted Linda. “Actually, he seemed to have slept less.” “Tomorrow he had the whole day
