Ethan gritted his teeth in pain - mainly because he felt sorry for himself for having spent a great deal of effort to buy the expensive shoes.
"Aunt, Ethan, please be quiet! Otherwise, please leave the ward!" Frost commanded in a low and serious tone.In the ward, Frost saw no social relationships, no elders, no relatives, only patients.Here, he was not only a doctor but also the hospital director. His authority was unquestionable, and no one dared to defy his orders.Betty and Ethan wisely kept quiet and made way for Frost.Just now on the way, Frost had already called Georg, carefully inquiring about the details of the rescue. Georg told him that Mr. John's condition was very pessimistic. Although the rescue temporarily relieved the symptoms, the fundamental cause was not found. The subsequent recurrence would be very tricky. He did not elaborate on the specific situation but wanted Frost to come and see for himself.At the door of the ward, Frost heIn the lounge, the dining table was already set up, and the exquisite dishes made it seem like a high-end restaurant, not a hospital room.Charlie thought that everyone must be worried about Grandpa's condition and might not have a good appetite, so he prepared light meals.Ethan's wound had been taken care of. Just now, Grandpa publicly embarrassed him by scratching him, leaving him feeling embarrassed, especially in front of Bianca and Georg. He sat quietly next to Betty, playing with his fork and knife with boredom.Maddy served appetizing soup to everyone one by one. When she walked up to Ethan, she whispered, "Men with scars are charming, you know!" Ethan knew she was comforting herself, so he smiled wryly and prepared to eat with determination.Bianca noticed Frost's silence and said to him, "Don't worry, I won't leave first. I'll stay with Grandpa." "Are you sure? I thought you would rush back to the meatballs," replied Frost.He had this id
She sat by Mr. John's side and coaxed him like a little girl, swaying his arm and complaining, "Dad, how can you easily believe a chef's words!" Betty scolded with a fierce look at Charlie, who was very important as the chef in a prestigious household, and his mouth was tightly closed. He was always cautious, trying to speak as little as possible and would not speak at all, if possible. It wasn't until he encountered his dear daughter recently that he found the courage to yearn for a better life. According to his personality, he would never speak more than required. He had a resin key pendant in his chef's pocket, with a photo of Lily and himself inside, which allowed him to look Betty in the eye. "Madam, I'm telling the truth," Charlie replied confidently. "Charlie has followed me for 30 years. I
Ethan looked at Maddy, his eyes surprisingly moist. If the occasion had been right, he wanted to rush over and hug her on behalf of Frost.Grandpa turned his head to look at Frost, his eyes carrying a dignified gaze that was both intimidating and awe-inspiring. Then he looked at Bianca.At this moment, Bianca was surprisingly calm.Just now, when she heard Maddy say that she was pregnant with Frost's child, Bianca indeed felt a strangely mixed feeling; a bit of surprise, a bit of anger, a bit of excitement, and a bit of jealousy.Various emotions were mixed in Bianca's mind, making her brain go blank at that moment. She repeatedly asked herself in her mind: Is this true?She had the instinct that Frost couldn't do such a thing, but Maddy's confident appearance was beyond doubt. And indeed, she had only known Frost for a few months.Moreover, she had no relationship with this family at all. Why did some people insist on he
Tears blurred her delicate makeup, and Maddy, who had always been proud and dignified, cried with her head down. The atmosphere in the room was exceptionally tense.Frost did not arrange the operation. Ethan, confronted with the sudden news of having a child, felt very wrong, not understanding what was going on. It was a well-prepared plan to help Maddy conceive Frost's child, why did he get involved? He looked at Maddy, feeling sorry for her, but also couldn't recall having a one-night stand with her."That's right, I said it was you who harmed us, Ethan!" Betty took the opportunity to attack, "It's commendable that you admit the consequences." Betty said, maliciously looking at Frost as if the whole thing was instigated by Frost."Betty, you shut up!" Maddy looked at Betty's performance and finally couldn't suppress her anger and roared at Betty.But then she didn't know what to do next. When she found out she was pregnant, she was
But Bianca didn't say anything, she knew that the last thing Maddy needed was her sympathy and comfort. The atmosphere in the room gradually eased.Only Maddy, the crying and fuss just now seemed like a desperate dream, and she was still struggling to wake up. 'Maddy, I'll take it as you are willing to give birth to this pair of children for our Astor family!Excellent women should seize every opportunity to become even better!' Betty clapped her hands, excitedly bouncing like a girl to Mr. John's side. 'Dad, rest assured, I will take good care of Maddy, you just wait to be a grandfather!By the way, Dad, Frost is going to India, the hospital cannot be without someone in charge.Your daughter voluntarily volunteered to be the acting dean. For the sake of your great-grandchildren, I will make our hospital even better!'"B
She had custom-ordered the pair of slippers, paying a hefty sum. They had been handled by the top craftsman, retaining the softness and warmth of the velvet, being nurturing for the feet, making them as delicate as a baby's skin.But now, her beloved item, which she hadn't worn more than a couple of times, was on the feet of a...She tried hard to restrain the fabric of her apple cheeks, almost about to burst, but what she wanted even more was Maddy's child; the two children were the turning point in her life.Betty cleared her throat and tilted her neck to say, "Maddy, since neither you nor Ethan loves each other, it's easy!You can help me give birth to these two children, but you don't have to get married. I will give you a large sum of money so that you can live worry-free for the rest of your life. One hand for the money, one hand for the child, let's pretend that nothing has happened."Maddy continued to look out the window, ignoring
After finishing speaking, Frost was about to lean in, but Bianca agilely dodged and stood up, saying, "Dr. Frost, this is the hospital and it's your grandfather's ward.Please calm down." With that, she turned and walked towards the door, only to be tightly embraced from behind by Frost. His two solid arms surrounded Bianca like an iron hoop, his knuckles slightly pale from fatigue and exertion, but appearing even more slender.He lowered his head, gently resting his chin on Bianca's strong but slender shoulders. Bianca felt a warm breath near her ears, followed by Frost exhaling a long breath. Bianca felt a cool sensation on her neck – was it Frost's tears?No one spoke, and they just leaned on each other for a while. Bianca felt Frost's body becoming heavier as if slowly relaxing.Bianca did her best to support Frost, sensing his extreme fatigue at that moment. "I have to leave. Grandfather's condition is becoming more and more bizarre, and I have
Clusters of blue morning glories stretched out from the balcony railings, swaying in the wind as if welcoming her home again. Bianca couldn't help but smile. Usually, with no time to care for pets, the morning glory was her spiritual sustenance.She walked into the corridor with even more excitement.Although she had been happy with her mother for the past few days, she knew that only her small room was truly her place. With so much happening in the past few days, only the warm atmosphere in that small room could truly cleanse her body and mind.He hurried up the stairs, and the corridor was still dim and dilapidated, but she couldn't wait to get back to her little den. Upon opening the door, everything familiar came into view.The small room was still spotless and ne
