After returning to the ward, Sonnet first explained everything that had happened to her father. Myles smiled and said, “I believe that you aren’t that type of person.” His heart hurt when he saw the slap marks on her face. “Put some ointment on your face. Otherwise, it’ll swell up even more.” Sonnet’s heart warmed up as she held her father’s hand tightly.The police did not come. Sonnet did not make a police report just now. She was simply trying to scare off the plump woman. She also wanted to see how she would react. She went to the doctor’s office to look for Mason. “I’d like to change my father’s general physician.” Mason’s expression darkened as he questioned, “What do you mean by that? Do you think that I’m not skilled enough?” “Do you think that I can trust you given our relationship?” Sonnet asked him in a straightforward manner.“I won’t let you do this!” “I’ll head to the medical office if you won’t let me do it. I’ll have no choice but to tell them everythi
Sonnet kept her father company in the hospital till late in the evening. The hospital did not ask her for anything else. Sonnet asked the care worker to call her anytime if anything happened, then she returned to the Brooks household. The sky was already dark when she returned to the Brooks household. She had not eaten anything, and she was so hungry that her stomach grumbled loudly. She went to the kitchen to look for something to eat. Suddenly, a low voice rang out once again. “Young Miss, you haven’t had dinner, right?” Sonnet turned around and saw Jim standing behind her. There was an apron around his waist. He looked like a good househusband. He chuckled and said, “Sit down, Young Miss. I’ve left some dishes for you. I’ll go get them for you now.” Sonnet was not used to letting someone else serve her that way. “I’ll do it myself.” He pressed down on her shoulders and pushed her to the dining table. He then sat her down. “It’s my job to serve you, Young Miss.”
“How do you know?” “He doesn’t seem to be feeling well.” Sonnet walked to the old man’s side and observed him carefully. The old man was clutching his chest. There was a pained expression on his face. “How are you, Sir?” Sonnet bent down and asked him. “Med…medicine…” The old man stuttered. Sonnet heard what he said clearly. “Where’s your medicine?” “In my…pocket…” Sonnet immediately reached out to put her hand in his pocket. There was a small pill bottle in the pocket of his shirt. She recognized this type of medicine. It was a type of cardiac arrest medicine. In critical situations, placing one of these pills under one’s tongue could save one’s life. She immediately took out a pill and fed it to the old man. The old man’s complexion gradually improved, and Sonnet helped him sit up. After a while, the old man seemed to be in a better condition. He smiled at Sonnet and thanked her, “Thank you, miss. If it weren’t for you, I would’ve lost my life here today!”
It was Hayden Gunn! Sonnet was rather shocked. She was about to greet him when Caitlyn pushed her to the side. Caitlyn ran towards Hayden with an excited expression on her face. “Young Master Gunn!” Hayden stopped walking and looked at her warily. “Who are you?” “I’m Caitlyn Yale, the daughter of the president of Yale Corporation. We met at dinner before this. Have you forgotten about me?”“Oh, it’s nice to meet you,” Hayden greeted her. Caitlyn was overjoyed. Her face flushed red at once. “Young Master Gunn, you’re here…”Her smile froze before she could finish speaking. That was because Hayden had turned around to look at Sonnet. He showed her an elegant and charming smile as he asked, “Sonnet, have you prepared everything?”Sonnet smiled and said, “Mr. Gunn, you could’ve just sent an ambulance over. Why did you come here personally?”Hayden shrugged and said, “My grandfather insisted that I come here personally after he heard that you wanted to transfer your father
Helio Street was a street that was popular for its entertainment in Harbor City. Meanwhile, Lux Club was exceptionally eye-catching due to its resplendent exterior. As soon as Sonnet arrived at the entrance, an attendant greeted her. He smiled at her and bowed down. “We only serve VIP clients here. May I know which VIP client is your host, madam?” Sonnet did not know how to answer his question.The attendant gave her a once over and changed the tone of his voice as he asked, “Are you a new hire?” Sonnet shook her head. “Excuse me, madam. We don’t accept regular guests,” the attendant said coldly.“It’s like this. I’d like to ask about something that happened five years ago…”“I’m sorry, madam. We can’t expose our clients’ private information,” the attendant cut her off before she could finish speaking. “What do I need to do to become a VIP member at the club?” Sonnet asked. “You need to pay a minimum of 15 thousand dollars to become a member,” the attendant replied.
Sonnet walked out from the back door of Lux Club. The driver of the beer delivery truck had left a long time ago. Sonnet walked to the side of the road and was about to call for a taxi when she suddenly saw a few men walking out of the main entrance of Lux Club. They chatted and laughed while getting into two separate cars. Her gaze landed on one of the men. Her heart skipped a beat. Was that Maxwell Brooks? She then shook her head and denied her thoughts. How was that possible? He should be dressed in dinosaur-print pyjamas and sleeping at home right now. “Honk honk honk!” A series of honks rang out, and she immediately returned to her senses. She turned around and caught sight of a small figure standing in the middle of the road. The road was busy with traffic. Plenty of cars honked at the child, but it seemed like he could not hear them at all. He simply stood there without moving. Sonnet immediately ran over. She took the child in her arms and ran to the side o
Sonnet sat down on the bed and picked up a call.She had just snapped a picture of Logan Scott’s name card and sent it to Lindy. Lindy immediately called her back and said, “Oh my gosh, Sonnet. You got acquainted with Logan Scott now?” “Who’s Logan Scott?” “He’s one of Harbor City’s Big Four. Rumor says that he’s an illegitimate son of the Scott family. He established a gang, which has gradually flourished over the years. His work involves both the legal and illegal sectors right now. He’s extremely powerful. Oh my gosh, Sonnet, why are you lucky? You got acquainted with two of Harbor City’s Big Four in two days! Hurry up and tell me how you got to know Logan Scott!” Sonnet would not hide anything from Lindy. She told her everything that had happened tonight. Lindy screamed out loud, “7 thousand and 5 hundred dollars?! Are you going to take the job? If you aren’t going to take it, I’ll take the job!”Sonnet smiled and said, “Alright, stop exaggerating. I just wanted to ask yo
Lux Club was silent in the morning. It was not as busy nor extravagant as it appeared at night. Sonnet met Logan on the highest floor of the club. It turned out that Logan lived in Lux Club, on the highest floor of the club. The floor had a minimalistic but luxurious renovation. After walking in, it felt like Sonnet had entered another world. He was smoking on the sofa when the attendant brought Sonnet to the highest floor and knocked on the door. His stubble seemed to have grown after just one night. His angular face exuded an air of exhaustion, but he seemed to give off a stronger sense of masculine charm. He put out his cigarette upon when Sonnet walked into the room, then dialed a number and said, “Bring Little Young Master over.” After a while, a young woman walked into the room with the little boy that she had seen the night before in her arms. “Both of you can take turns looking after him in shifts. You can discuss how you’d like to arrange the shifts,” Logan
