The next day… Cara's apartment… 7:50 am.

Cara heard someone ring the doorbell and drowsily got out of bed to investigate. She looked at the monitor, realized it was her mom, and reluctantly opened the door.

Her mom had been calling her for the past few days, but she didn't pick up. She was tired of listening to her nag about her career as a model and how she should go on blind dates and focus on settling down.

“What are you doing here so early in the morning?” Cara asked groggily, yawning, and then she saw the food basket in her mom's hand.

“Don't tell me you came here this early to bring me breakfast…”

“Why haven't you been picking up my calls? Is Madam Hunt treating you so well that you've forgotten about your own mother?” Aunt Barbara asked, her tone full of hurt.

“What has she got to do with anyone? I only go there because of Grandpa,” Cara muttered under her breath, but Aunt Barbara heard her.

“Then why the distance? Does my presence bother you?”

  • My Brother-in-law's sinful offer   169. You have my blessings

    Back in the hospital room, the father and daughter duo stared at each other and didn't know what to say. The atmosphere turned awkward as unspoken words lingered between them. Aria: “I was…” Mr. Morgan: “I know…” Both of them spoke at the same time and paused. Aria: “You first.” Mr. Morgan: “You first.” They both said in unison again, and they both smiled. Mr. Morgan's eyes were wet as he approached Aria and held her hand. His eyes, which were fierce a moment ago when he faced the Hunt family, were now swirling with emotion. Even his hands that held Aria's hands were trembling. “Dad is sorry for finding you so late. It has been so many years; I couldn't allow myself to meet your mum because I was unable to find you. I didn't know how to explain to her that I couldn't find you for the past 20 years. Forgive this incompetent father for taking so long…” Aria stared into the tear-filled eyes of Mr. Morgan and saw how genuine the emotions swirling in his eyes were, and her heart s

    Seeing that her grandfather and father had left, Cara turned to her mom, not realizing how Aunt Barbara’s gaze had turned blank after seeing her father. “Mom, why don't you drop the food basket so that we can come back later? I don't think our presence is needed here,” she said. “Ah… Yes… You're right. They need to talk. Let's drop it and come back later,” Aunt Barbara said absentmindedly, trying to mask her discomfort. She approached Martin and gave the food basket to him. “Give this to the boss and the madam, and tell him we'll come back later…” “Cara?” Aria's hesitant voice cut through the atmosphere, causing both mother and daughter to look over. “You came; it's really you. I missed you so much,” Aria said in a hoarse voice. Cara stared at Aria, and her eyes welled up with tears. “Go ahead, I’ll be waiting for you in the lobby,” Aunt Barbara said, lightly pushing Cara forward. Cara nodded at her mom as her throat tightened. Before she realized, she was already approaching

    Silence—pin drop silence! The silence in the ward was deafening after Mr. Morgan dropped those words. The Hunt family members thought their ears were playing tricks on them. “Felix, I didn't know you were here in Manhattan. How is the family doing?” Old Master Hunt asked Mr. Morgan with an amiable smile plastered on his face. Mr. Morgan paused in front of the old man and acknowledged him.“Old Master Hunt, the family is doing great, thanks for asking,” he said politely, but his tone sounded distant. “I have been meaning to invite you to discuss some issues over chess. Our last encounter was rushed because of my ill health…” The words of Old Master Hunt slipped into the background of Mr. Morgan's mind. His main focus was on finding a chance to speak with his daughter, rather than engaging in chit-chat. From the moment he stepped into the ward, his eyes were locked on Aria and it was impossible to miss how she was giving him sneaky glances while different emotions flickered throug

    Aria looked like she had seen a ghost. The name slipped through her lips before she could stop herself. “Jayden.” “Why so distant? Call me like you always do. Honey? Hubby? Babe?” He taunted. “Let's do the check-up later,” Dr. Jason told Dr. Natalie, dragging her away. “Martin! Anthony! Who let him in?!” Kayden growled; he looked furious. Martin, Anthony, and two other men who were standing guard at the entrance entered, hearing the boss's growl. “Boss,...” Martin began, but Jayden cut him off.“You told your men to let me in yourself, remember?” He chuckled. “Besides, I'm here to see my wife; aren't you the one intruding?” Jayden added cheekily, and Kayden's jaw clenched, his hands balled into fists. ‘This was what irked him most. That damn piece of paper. That damn certificate!’ Kayden was about to give his brother a piece of his mind and tell his men who stood by the door like statues to drag Jayden out, but Aria beat him to it. “YOU ARE NOT MY HUSBAND, YOU MONSTER!” She

    “Dr. Jason?”“Whoa, it's really you; it's been a long time. You look even more dashing than I remember,” Aria genuinely complimented, peeking her head underneath Kayden's hand to talk to the doctor. Even though Aria had pushed Kayden away, he didn't budge and remained as immovable as a mountain, his strong hands firmly caging her between himself and the bed, showing no inclination to release her. “You think so?” Jason chuckled and winked, looking suave like a playboy instead of a doctor.“The first time I saw you months ago, you looked beautiful too, just like you do now.” He added, and Aria blushed. Kayden had told him Aria remembered the past. He guessed it was true. “You are just saying that to make me feel better, but your case is different. I bet you have a lot of girls chasing you. You're the famous and handsome Dr. Jason Anderson, after all.”“Who would have thought the renowned Dr. Jason, whom everyone is talking about, was my former boss?” Aria continued to gush, not reali
