Chapter 1571

Author: Lean
"I'll do my best," said Anthony.

The atmosphere in the room became strange as time progressed.

Except for the little girl who occasionally spoke, the others kept their mouths shut.

After the meal, the group returned to the hospital.

They all went to Gilbert's ward.

Although he thought it was impossible, Carter still asked, "Can't you tell us what substance you were exposed to? You only have to tell me and Tanner."

Gilbert shook his head.

He looked troubled.

Unexpectedly, the door to the ward was knocked on, and the person who entered made his eyes widen.

"You..."

"No need to move. We already know about your situation, but it really needs to stay confidential. We can't let even a hint of it leak out."

Millie wanted to speak but was held back by Gilbert, who said, "Understood."

Even if he told Carter and Tanner, the treatment wouldn't involve just the two of them. Medication and other needs would make secrecy difficult.

He still had to stay here for treatment—there's no such

  • Ex-husband’s Regret   Chapter 1584

    "What's wrong?"Caleb walked toward her step by step. "Just one night and you don't recognize your legal husband anymore?"Whitney had never considered this possibility and didn't know what to say for a moment.Caleb had been angry, but the moment he saw her, that anger inexplicably disappeared.But seeing her with her head down, not speaking, offering no explanation, the anger surged again.He grabbed her and dragged her out.Whitney couldn't break free. She clutched the doorframe tightly, even though the pain brought tears to her eyes.Her fingertips started to bleed, but she still didn't let go.Caleb's eyes were already red — the sight of her bleeding fingers made them even redder.He grabbed that hand too, and finally snapped, bending down and lifting her over his shoulder."Caleb."Zachary stepped in to block them and closed the office door. "It's not appropriate to go out like this. Put her down. This office is private. You can talk it out slowly, properly."Caleb's

    After Caleb landed in Jeswood, he was indeed stopped.Just like how he had dealt with the matter between Carter and Mandy before.He was treated the same way.Jeswood wasn't his turf, after all, so he contacted Zachary.It was already the middle of the night.Zachary had been asleep with his wife in his arms, but he got up, threw on some simple clothes, and headed out.Jane also woke up, put on clothes, and followed him with a hat and mask.When they arrived at the spot, they saw a man in black clothes sitting by the roadside, smoking.The stubble on his chin had already come out, and his clothes were wrinkled — he clearly looked travel-worn."Have some water first." Zachary handed him a bottle.Caleb took a few sips and pointed behind him. "Any way to get through?"Zachary glanced over and said, "If my sister is involved in a confidential project, then there's nothing I can do.""You know best what happened with Mandy."Caleb laughed.He was laughing at himself.He felt

    After Caleb left, Whitney stood alone in the big, empty house.She felt lonely and desolate.As expected, people shouldn't get used to anything.When she went back to the bedroom, she looked closely at the decor.Caleb was flamboyant, with a varied fashion sense—not limited to black, white, or gray.When they got married, she had guessed his taste in interior design.So when she finally saw this dopamine-like decor, it still surprised her.Because she didn't like too much color.Her world had always been colorless.Now that she thought about it...It seemed he had done it for her.He had said he had been looking for her all these years, to repay a childhood debt.No wonder she had always wondered—what about her was worth liking?What a joke.Janet had assumed the young couple would want some time alone before parting, so she hadn't come over until the next morning.She didn't know the password to their house, and after knocking for a long time with no answer, she thought

    The two of them sat down and quietly ate their meals.Whitney didn't ask, and Caleb didn't say anything either.After they finished eating, they returned to the bedroom.After washing up, they lay down together.Caleb held her in his arms and asked, "Ready to sleep?"Whitney couldn't fall asleep just yet."Want to watch a film?" he asked."Sure," she replied.Caleb turned on the projector and picked a film.Whitney leaned into his arms, though her mind wasn't on the film at all.After a while, she fell asleep.Caleb turned off the projector and fell asleep holding her.The next day, everything returned to normal.After breakfast, Caleb drove Whitney to work."Don't push yourself. If you really don't feel well, just take a break.""I'm fine," she said with a soft smile. "Take care of the roads.""Roger that," he said, raising two fingers to his temple in a salute.Whitney laughed. "Alright, I’m off."As Caleb was about to turn around, Dianne stopped him."Everything s

    It took Whitney a long time to react.She stared at him, eyes wide and unblinking.Actually, back then, she had been in no position to help anyone.She hadn't intended to get involved.But she couldn't help herself.His clothes clearly showed he wasn't short of money—it was no wonder he had been targeted.And she had a selfish hope too—thinking he might be able to find his way back and take her with him.But in the end, he hadn't returned.Someone else had sponsored her schooling, and she had stopped thinking about it.She couldn't even clearly remember what he looked like.Boys changed as they grew up, after all.It was normal she hadn't recognized him.And she had always kept in mind that their marriage was one of convenience, part of the deal with Zachary.She hadn't dared consider any other possibility."I did go looking for you afterward, but I couldn't find you.""All these years, I've never stopped looking. Thankfully, God heard my prayers and brought you to me in

    No one dared to move.Even the woman looked a little afraid, but thinking of her identity, she shouted loudly, "I'm your mother-in-law!"Caleb was well aware of Whitney's past.He recognized these people too, he had their information.Originally, he thought they were stuck in some backwater and wouldn't stir up much trouble.He hadn't bothered to deal with them.He hadn't expected them to come looking for trouble."She's not," Whitney objected.The woman said, "How am I not? I'm your biological mother!"Whitney told Caleb to leave."You go do what you have to."She didn't want him to know about that filthy part of her past.Caleb gently asked, "Can you still go to work?"Without waiting for her answer, he carried her away and messaged Dianne to ask for time off."I'm fine...""Stay right there, young man. My darling, are you refusing to recognize your own mother? If you walk away, I'll go to your workplace and talk to your boss. Ask how they hired such an unfilial ingrat
