Before everyone’s eyes, Kelly first took two steps forward, then continued one slow, steady step at a time. Her pace wasn’t quick, but her footing was firm.After so long confined to bed, she clearly wasn’t used to walking again.When she had covered a short distance, she stopped.“I still have strength left, but my feet don’t fully obey me yet. For now, this is as far as I can go.”A small smile curved her lips.“That’s already excellent. It means your legs are recovering very well,” Joseph praised gently.“Professor Rogers, please help Kelly back onto the bed,” he added.“Of course.” Brady hurried to follow Joseph’s instructions.“This is beyond excellent—this is nothing short of miraculous. Her legs were supposed to be amputated, and now she’s standing.” “Unbelievable. Truly incredible.” “Professor Wilson is the finest doctor I’ve ever seen, without question.”The group’s admiration overflowed, their eyes full of respect for Joseph.“Kelly, how long can you sit at the edge of

With Joseph leading the way, the two cars pulled up beneath Brady Rogers’s building shortly after two o’clock.Seeing Joseph’s car, Brady hurried downstairs to welcome them.“Professor Wilson—everyone—Lindsay… thank you all for coming.” He greeted them warmly, shaking hands with each guest.“Professor Rogers, you’re too polite. We’re only here to observe. The one who’s truly worked hard is Professor Wilson.” Philip Anderson chuckled.“You’re all too kind. I didn’t expect both of you elders to come as well.” Brady offered another round of courtesy.“Rogers, we’re imposing on you again,” Richard Anderson laughed.“You exaggerate, Mr. Anderson. It’s an honor that you’d grace my humble home,” Brady replied.Exchanging polite pleasantries, the group made their way upstairs.“Professor Wilson, Miss Lindsay, everyone—please, come in and have a seat.” Mrs. Rogers ushered them inside and quickly served tea to each guest.“Hello, Uncle Joseph… Hello, Sister Lindsay.” A small head peek

“It’s your conscience.”“What I admire most is the conscience you carry as a physician—your clarity about right and wrong, your principles, your unwavering sense of duty.”Philip Anderson spoke with heartfelt admiration.“I only hope to act without shame before my own heart,” Joseph replied softly, lowering his head.“To be at peace with oneself—easy to say, but how many truly manage it?” Philip Anderson shook his head.“Old Mr. Anderson, you flatter me,” Joseph answered with a faint smile.“Professor Wilson, my father has been following the situation at Havencrest Medical Center as well. When that place finally collapsed, he was practically applauding.” Richard Anderson laughed as he poured tea for Joseph.“The issues at Havencrest Medical Center have existed for years. We at Nova General Hospital often receive their patients.”“From what those patients say, along with our own assessment, it’s clear they never received proper care there.”“At first, we thought it was just coincid

“Can you not be so explicit? You’re shameless,” Alice huffed.“What’s there to be afraid of? There’s no one else here. As for his… affairs, the two of us know more than he does,” Mason Alvarez said bluntly.Alice’s pretty face flushed scarlet.“Ahem. I’m free this afternoon—and not tired,” Joseph cut in, clearing his throat.“In that case, let’s go out together later, Joseph!” Alice clapped softly, delighted. “It’s been ages since we went shopping—this is great!”She was, as ever, easy to please.After lunch, the three of them headed out.A woman’s appetite for shopping should never be underestimated—especially when money isn’t an issue. The two of them bought with effortless abandon. Heidi was different; she had money too, but never spent much—a virtue in its own right. Then again, spending freely isn’t exactly a vice either. If money can’t buy happiness, what’s the point of it?The day flew by. After a whirlwind of shopping, both Alice and Mason were thoroughly satisfied.The next d

“Free? Of course. We’re on break, so I’m basically at home looking after the kids and Kelly. My mom’s here too,” Brady Rogers replied at once.“I’ll come by tomorrow—around two in the afternoon,” Joseph said.They spoke a while longer about Kelly’s condition. From Brady’s detailed account, Joseph judged that her recovery was going very well. Brady was a physician himself, and a medical educator at that; his clinical descriptions were bound to be precise.After nearly ten minutes, they hung up.Joseph then called Lindsay Anderson. The line connected quickly.“Hello? Mr. Wilson? Do we have a time?” Lindsay asked.“Yes. I’m calling to confirm—tomorrow at two, at Professor Rogers’s place,” Joseph said.“No problem on my end, Mr. Wilson,” she replied. “Oh, and would you come to my place for lunch first? My mom’s making something special.”“Grandpa Tristan Flores will be there too. My dad and grandpa want to come with us afterward—they said they’d like to witness a medical miracle.”“In tha

“What else would I be doing? Obviously, tormenting you,” Alice teased, eyes dancing. “What—don’t you like it when I tease you?”“Who likes being bullied?” Joseph chuckled helplessly.“If you don’t, then I simply must,” Alice declared, and leaned in for another kiss.After a bout of her playful antics, Joseph finally got the upper hand. In his arms, Alice had no tricks left and had to surrender—off she went to wash up and get ready for breakfast.By the time Joseph came out of the kitchen, Alice was already seated at the dining table, waiting.“Joseph, did you make extra? I bet that old woman is on her way,” Alice said between bites.“When have I not cooked enough? Don’t worry—there’s more than you two can finish,” Joseph replied with a smile.“Heh, perfect,” Alice grinned.Right then, a knock sounded at the door.“Right on cue. That must be her,” Alice said around a mouthful of bun.“I’ll get it,” Joseph said, rising and heading for the door.The moment he opened it, a warm cloud of p
