Hailee was still in a trance, even though Bryan had left already. When they broke up, she didn't think of firing him from working in Davies Group. But now that Bryan mentioned he might leave the company, she had a complex feeling about it. Their conversation did not last long. He just wanted her to share his plans. After she replied to him, she'd think about it, and then after a few more words, Bryan bid goodbye. Hailee lifted her gaze after she felt the space next to her occupied by someone.…-

Vincent's face shows much relaxation, while Bryan remains frowning. He senses his foul mood, but Vincent was too happy right now to worry about what upset the guy. He had the idea that he was the reason Bryan looked irritated, but he didn't care at all. He owed nothing to him. It is what Vince thought. "Mr. Anderson, I would be honest. Although I'm glad the divorce papers have been signed… However, I would not feel..." "No need to thank me." Bryan cut whatever words Vincent liked to say. He went…

Vincent wanted to give Hailee a grand wedding. Her son merrily told her, and she has no objection. When they forced him to marry Eva, he didn't want to announce it to the world, so they just did it in a simple wedding ceremony and a simple dinner gathering afterward. There are no other guests but Carl, Jake, Tim, and the newlywed's parents. Vincent didn't care to make it fancy and grand; he was entirely not interested in going through details. But now, according to Carl and Rodney, Vincent is saving…

Jacob came back to his senses when they arrived on the 10th floor. They stepped out of the lift, then took the hallway toward the left wing of this hospital. They made a stop halfway to watch the city lying in front of them. Standing near the floor-ceiling windows, Jacob and Fred discussed the progress of the constructions in the entire city. Later on, Jacob brought up another topic. "Fred, can I ask you one question?" Fred turned his head in his direction, then nodded. "Of course." "Why did…

At the entrance of Dream City Hospital, a black Rolls-Royce pulled over, and two middle-aged men got out of the car. Jacob and Fred climbed the stairs and entered the door, headed straight to the elevator. Kris, following behind them, made an abrupt step to press the elevator button and let the two chairmen enter the lift. Inside the elevator, Fred gazed out at the beautiful scenery in front of him. They were facing the mountain, and the view here was spectacular. The patients would definitely have…

"How are you?" Hilda asked Hailee afterward. A pained in her heart to see the bandages on Hailee's arms. It infuriates her every time she remembers how Eva pushes Hailee, and then she fell on those vases. She's been noticing this in their first meeting and wondering what skincare she was using. Her skin was so smooth and fair. She's praying it wouldn't leave scars after her wounds healed. Hailee, gazing at Vince, turned her eyes to Hilda and replied with delight. "I am a lot better now, mom."…

"Open your mouth, hubby." Holding a fork with an omelet on it, Hailee urges him. Vincent obediently parted his lips and ate the food she offered. He munches it, then swallows. He opened his mouth again to take a bite of the gingerbread Hailee holding in her other hand. "Wifey, I should be the one feeding you." He said, thrilled with the affection she was giving to him. He's the one to receive care, instead of Hailee. "No! Your hand is still injured!" She insisted stubbornly. Vince remained…

Vincent is pacing back and forth outside Hailee's ward. Her maids are helping her to get a bath. It frustrates him that he could not use his hands yet. He wants to bathe Hailee himself and dress her. He would love to take care of her and be in service, but he has nothing to do for now but cuddle her. "Don't worry, hubby. Your body is still useful to me. Hug me like this…" she said this morning; they woke up. She gets up from the bed, then sat down on his lap and purred against his chest. He…

DREAM CITY, AUSTRALIA Hailee was yawning when she felt a firmed body underneath her. She realized she was lying on top of Vincent's body. After she had some carrot cake and green tea around 5:30 in the evening, she fell asleep. If she weren't mistaken, she'd sleep for hours. Ah, poor hubby! Surely, his body was numbing now, but she wanted to stay cuddled by him. Hailee gaped at Vince, immersed herself in staring at his handsome face while he slept so peacefully. When she saw him this…
