With teary eyes and out of breath, Gabriella walked quickly. She completely ignored the commotion behind her back. Amber's anger was no more important than her brother-in-law.
As soon as she opened the door, the secretary looked up at her with a high arched eyebrow. Without waiting for orders, the girl gave up the chair she was sitting on. "Madam?"
"How is Julian?" Gabriella asked in a low voice.
“The operation went well, Madam. We just have to wait for Master to wake up,” Mia explained as she turned to the man who was surrounded by many tubes.
Feeling doubtful, Gabriella grabbed the girl's shoulder. "You didn't lie to calm me down, did you?"
With a face without a smile, Mia shook her head. "I'm telling the truth, Madam. Master has passed the critical period. Now, we just have to wait for him to become conscious.”
"So he's not going to die, is he?" Gabriella asked, unable to sift through the words anymore.

"Sorry, Sir. You can't be mean to me. Even though I work as a secretary, there are still limits for me to fulfill your request. I can't continue to meet your needs in 24 hours per day," Mia said, began to raise her voice.The girl's brows had twitched in annoyance. She didn't understand why his boss was so childish.“So, you have the heart to leave me with Amber? Don't you already know that the woman is incompetent. She can't even boil the water. What will my fate be if I'm taken care by her?”Shaking head in disbelief, the secretary sighed. "Miss Amber doesn't need to boil water here. So, you can throw away the worry. Now, I have to go. In a moment, she will be here.”A second later, the girl grabbed the bag, preparing to leave. Looking at the girl's seriousness, Julian became more panic.“But I don't want you to go, Mia.

“You are the type of guy who can't hide feelings, hm?” Max teased as he was standing in front of the door.Realizing the presence of his brother, Julian spontaneously snorted. "Have you been eavesdropping ever since?" he asked, raising an eyebrow."Not eavesdropping. Just overheard," Max said with a light shrug. A second later, he approached his brother with relaxed steps. "So, how are you doing?""You see for yourself. I just got ignored by Mia,” Julian replied while rolling his eyes. He was ready to welcome the sarcasm from Max."I didn't asked about your heart, but the condition of your stomach. I heard you saved my wife with a very heroic act. I never thought you're willing to sacrifice your life.”Receiving the unexpected answer, Julian's gaze slowly shifted back to his younger brother. Once he found the stiff curve of the lips, again, he snorted.“Are you praising me? Why do I feel that you're being sarcas

However, when the son arrived at the bedside, those wrinkled eyes slowly opened."Max?" Herbert's breath raised the dew on the mask covering his mouth. A second later, compassion began to cloud his vision."How are you, Dad? Is your body healthier?” Max asked, trying to curl his lips.Unexpectedly, drops of sadness began to flow down the old man's temples. With ragged breaths, he raised his hand, hoping to reach his son."Why did you give me your liver?" Herbert asked in a slightly indistinct voice.

"So, Dad immediately burst into tears when he found out that Julian was critical?" Gabriella asked Gabriella while combing her hair in front of the mirror."Yes. It took a few minutes for him to stop sobbing,” the man who had been lying on the bed, said.“Then I guess you will have no trouble reconciling them. Dad doesn't hate Julian that much," the woman mumbled as she placed the comb on the dressing table. A second later, she walked towards the bed.Seeing that his wife had been lying on the side, Max secretly smiled. Carefully, he tilted his body so that he could get a better look at Gabriella's face.“But, won't they mind? Waiting for their condition to recover requires patience. Why don't you just bring them together now?" the woman asked without paying attention to the hand that began to wander.“I want to make a memorable moment of peace, Gaby.

After swallowing hard, Sebastian immediately pointed his index finger at the dish table."I forget. I have something to discuss with Amber. So, excuse me. We'll talk again some other time," he said hastily.Without waiting for a response, the man went towards the woman he had mentioned. The change in his attitude succeeded in making Max raise an eyebrow. "What's wrong with him?"Before the host had time to find an answer, his attention was distracted by the approaching guest. The suspicion of Sebastian's panic suddenly faded."Good evening, Mr. Evans, and happy birthday, Mrs. Evans," the guest greeted with a big smile."Thank you, Rose.

After getting directions, they simultaneously lowered the heavy box in the corner of the room. “What do you bring here, Dad? That looks really heavy,” Max sighed. He forgot to say hello because of being too amazed. "That's something I should have returned a long time ago," the old man said with a meaningful curve of his lips. Receiving such a hint, the woman's eyes suddenly widened. "Is that my piano?" A second later, Herbert shrugged. “Open it! You'll know." With a pounding heart, Gabriella drew closer to the prize.
