"It's penicillin," the nurse said again, her voice trembling slightly as she looked at the man gripping her wrist with unexpected force.

"Penicillin?" Nathan repeated in a low, disbelieving whisper.

His eyes drifted away as if he was staring at something far beyond the hospital walls, beyond the present moment entirely.

His fingers were still locked around the nurse's hand, but slowly, he loosened his grip.

"Yes, sir," the nurse replied, taking a cautious step back when he finally released he

  • May We Never Meet Again   Chapter 193: A Night of Peace

    Megan sat cross-legged on the couch beside her elder sister, her phone in her hand as she replayed the videos of Charlotte’s engagement party. The television screen was also tuned to one of the popular entertainment channels still replaying the same scene from the night before. She laughed excitedly, pointing at the screen. “Look at your face here, Charlotte! See how you were just crying and smiling like a baby!”Charlotte smiled shyly, shaking her head. “You and this your video addiction,” she said softly. “You’ve watched this same thing since morning.”Megan ignored her completely, tapping on the screen again. “See how Caleb Briggs knelt down, ah! This part, this part!” she squealed excitedly, replaying the moment Caleb brought out the ring. “You were just standing like statue before you finally said yes. I almost shouted from the hall that night!”Charlotte rolled her eyes and rested her chin lazily on her palm. “You’ve said that a hundred times today,” she muttered, though the s

  • May We Never Meet Again   Chapter 192: Suspected Infidelity

    Marcel stood just by the door, breathing fast, his face pale like someone who had just rushed up a staircase. “Boss,” he said, still catching his breath, “have you not heard about your wife—”He paused immediately and corrected himself, realizing how that would sound. “Sorry, I mean Charlotte’s engagement with Caleb.”Nathan’s lips curved into something that looked like a smile, but it was empty, painful to even look at. He turned his face slowly toward the television still playing the clip of Charlotte and Caleb from last night.He pointed at the screen, his voice low and cold. “Oh, you mean this?”Marcel turned and saw the broadcast. “Oh,” he said, nodding awkwardly, “you’ve seen it.”Nathan just gave a dry laugh, the kind that carried no joy, only bitterness. Marcel scratched his head, stepping closer. “Look, Boss,” he said carefully, “I know it’s… hard. But maybe you should just be happy for her.”Nathan turned sharply, his eyes burning. “Happy? Why should I be happy for her? Why

  • May We Never Meet Again   Chapter 191: Shattering News

    The next morning, the internet was on fire. Every major news channel, blog, and gossip page had only one headline — “The Union of Two Titans: Charlotte Dean Engaged to Caleb Cooper.”The videos from last night’s event were everywhere. The clip of Caleb kneeling before Charlotte, the diamond ring sparkling, and Charlotte’s tearful “yes” was being replayed on every TV screen across the country.It was as though the whole world was celebrating a love story that had been long in the making. But for one man, the same story felt like a sharp blade piercing deep into his chest.Inside his office at Mills Corp, Nathan sat at his desk, the morning sunlight spilling across the table. Two men in black suits sat opposite him, presenting their reports on an ongoing project.Nathan was nodding faintly to their words, pretending to listen, but his mind was far away.Then, the television mounted on the wall suddenly switched from the financial news to the breaking headline.His attention caught it i

  • May We Never Meet Again   Chapter 190: A Promise Before the World

    The past few weeks had been filled with heavy silence in the Mills mansion.Nathan sat in his study that evening, the soft tick of the wall clock echoing through the room. Papers were scattered on the table before him, untouched.His eyes stared blankly out of the window, lost in thoughts that refused to leave him.The door creaked open slowly. He turned slightly, not in the mood for interruptions. It was Jennifer, her face bright and glowing with excitement.In her hand, she held a folded paper.“What is it, woman?” Nathan asked sharply, his tone cold, unwilling to mask his irritation.Jennifer smiled widely, as if she didn’t notice his harshness. “I’m pregnant,” she announced happily, her voice high-pitched with joy. “Nathan, we’re going to have another baby!”She stretched the paper towards him like a child showing off a prize.Nathan’s face didn’t shift from its blank expression. He collected the paper, unfolded it, and glanced through.The test result was clear, Jennifer Mills, s

  • May We Never Meet Again   Chapter 189: A Partnership Sealed

    The conference room inside Golden Aura was filled with a mix of excitement and formality. Charlotte sat at the head of the long glass table, flanked by her lawyer, two of her board members, and their guests — Mr. Goodman and his company lawyer. The large windows let in soft daylight, illuminating the stacks of neatly arranged documents before them.The air smelled faintly of coffee and expensive perfume. Tablets, files, and branded notepads were spread neatly across the polished table. Sandra Oliver stood quietly by the side with a folder pressed against her chest, her sharp eyes moving around the room to ensure everything remained in order.“Ladies and gentlemen,” Mr. Goodman began, adjusting his glasses. “It’s a pleasure to formalize this partnership today. I must say, Miss Dean, your work speaks volumes.”“Thank you, Mr. Goodman,” Charlotte replied, her smile polite and professional. “We look forward to a partnership that benefits both sides.”There was confidence in her voice,

    Charlotte moved from one section of the production unit of her company to another with Mr. Goodman, a potential investor, and his son, Yul Goodman. By her right was her personal assistant, Sandra Oliver, jotting down observations and making sure nothing was out of place. The Goodmans had requested to see the heart of the empire that had become the talk of the city, and Charlotte gladly led the tour herself.The production floor buzzed with activity. Machines hummed steadily while workers moved around in uniforms bearing the company’s logo. Boxes of cosmetics were stacked neatly at one side while fashion materials filled another section. The scent of perfume and fresh fabric lingered faintly in the air.Charlotte walked with confidence, her heels clicking lightly against the polished floor. Every worker who passed greeted her respectfully, and she responded with warm nods.As they walked, Charlotte explained the operations of each unit, her voice clear and confident. Mr. Goodman n

    Minutes later, minutes that stretched and warped into something that felt like eternity, the night exploded with sound.Ambulances screeched to a halt. Police vehicles surrounded the wreckage, their red and blue lights flashing violently against the trees, the broken road, the twisted metal. Siren

    Dr. Harrison turned back to face Nathan, his steps slow, his brows drawn together in concern. The atmosphere in the room had shifted completely. What had started as a tense conversation now felt like a ticking bomb. He could sense it clearly, the way everyone’s breathing had changed, the way Mega
