Esther, are you crazy? What are you thinking!
“Who... who wants to peek at you!”
Embarrassed and angry, Esther instinctively tried to kick him, but the man seemed to anticipate this and caught her leg in advance.
“In the early morning, men shouldn’t be provoked. You know, that kind of provocation can last over a week!”
Esther: “... Wait, who’s the doctor here—you or me?”
“You admit you’re a doctor now?”
Evander’s gaze wandered over her face, and when he heard this, the corners of his eyes and mouth relaxed into a smile. “So you’re on Adrian’s side?”
Realizing she was inadvertently exposed, Esther felt embarrassed but quickly relaxed. It wasn’t surprising that Evander had figured it out.
“What, me being on Adrian’s side? I’m a doctor, I just know Dr. Lewis!”Seeing her stubborn expression, Evan
When Esther woke up, it was already nighttime. She was in the rest room they’d set up for her at the hospital. Her first instinct was to check her clothes — but she noticed her surgical gown was gone. Instead, she was wearing the pajamas she’d come in from home.Her face froze instantly. Her mind flashed back to the image of Evander helping her change clothes, and her cheeks flushed bright red. She quickly grabbed the white coat hanging by the bed and wrapped it around herself.Right then, Evander pushed the door open and caught her looking startled, like someone had caught her off guard. He couldn’t help but tease, “I already saw you — you’re family now. No point hiding it anymore.”Esther was speechless.She hadn’t even asked, and he admitted it so openly — that honestly caught her off guard.That surprise made it feel unreal, like she was being teased.“So, once you’v
“I’ll go first!”After the shock, Esther urged the small nurse panting behind her, “You hurry up and come too!”Saving a life is like fighting a fire—one second slower, and it’s hell.Esther didn’t hesitate and rushed straight into the emergency room. Just as the nurse had said, it was a close call. The rescue bed was already soaked in blood, a bright red pool everywhere.The woman lying there looked pale, too weak even to speak clearly, murmuring that she didn’t want their help. Her wrist, still held tightly, was at risk of spurting blood again.“Get away! No one wants your help, I don’t want you to save me!”“Miss, calm down a bit!”“I don’t need to calm down, get away! Get away!”“Think about your mother, your family. How relieved they’d be if they never saw you again!”But the doctor’s earnest
Honestly, Evander’s sweet-talking game? Top-tier. Just listening to him could give anyone a little dopamine boost.Even Esther—who had supposedly sworn off romance forever—had to admit, ugh, this kind of attention wasn’t completely terrible. Actually… it felt kinda nice.Of course, she wasn’t about to admit that out loud. Instead, she arched a brow, lips twitching in amusement. “Sure, sure. You don’t care about anything. And maybe the poor baby mama was just heartbroken because—”Evander cut her off smoothly, “What happened between us was a complete accident. No feelings. We’re both single. Never even seen each other in person.”Esther gave him a look so skeptical it deserved its own award. “Really? Not even a tiny little emotional thread? Not even a Pinterest board?”So confident. So bold. She almost wanted to smack him just to tes
Hearing that name, Rowan froze. She was an internationally renowned expert, known for snatching lives back from the Grim Reaper himself. Many would pay top prices to have her save their loved ones. If she agreed, she would make money as fast as a printing press.After all, life is priceless, and rich people’s lives are even more valuable.Could it really be... Estelle Moon?The surgery had finished in the video, and the vital signs monitor was beeping again. The patient was saved right in front of everyone’s eyes. Though Rowan only saw the last part, he could feel her superb medical skills.But this was the foster daughter who had lived with the Davenier family for over twenty years — Esther!His so-called “cheap sister”!Had he been mistaken?Rowan rubbed his eyes and looked again. Although she was masked, he had known her for over twenty years and she often helped clean up his messes. He was very famili
Everyone had seen Esther being stopped at the door. But when Rowan heard this, it hit him like a punch. He exploded, “What doctor? She’s just an adopted daughter you kicked out. She’s not a doctor! We raised her for twenty-something years. How would I not know if she was?”“She’s not a doctor, and she barged into the hospital. Of course I had to stop her! Who knows if she came to hurt my mom? She could have been saved before, but after she showed up, it was over. How could I not stop her?”He struggled harder, “No way, I have to go in and watch. I’m my mom’s only son, her family. You can’t stop me from seeing her — that’s illegal! I have to go in. I can’t let Esther, that ungrateful snake, pretend to be a doctor and kill my mom!”He started pushing forward in handcuffs. The police had no choice but to follow him carefully to prevent trouble.Rowan kept trying to storm the OR
Esther felt like a tight string inside her head just snapped with a buzz. She really hadn’t expected that the Davenier family’s mother and daughter duo would actually try to commit suicide — and drag Evander into it. No wonder people say the bigger the tree, the more it catches the wind.They knew she wasn’t afraid to be barefoot among people wearing shoes, so they went straight to Evander’s place to stir up trouble. Hanging themselves like some kind of drama.Well, they went all the way — to the point where they ended up in the ICU at Hospital A. Looks like the Davenier family is seriously falling apart!They’d pulled out every desperate move in the book. “Keep an eye on them for me. I’m on my way. Tell Dr. Lewis these two absolutely cannot die!”If they wanted to give up on life themselves, fine, she didn’t care. But dragging Evander down with them? No way.“Got it. I’ll watch th
