Semua Bab Yearning for Her Return : Bab 161 - Bab 170

Rebecca and Caleb both acted very quickly. In no time, they got the nurse's account protected. At the same time, the posts that exposed her personal information had been deleted, preventing more of her data from being spread.Rebecca also contacted Carl Collins and told him to tell the nurse not to go online for a couple of days if she could avoid it. At the same time, Rebecca advised her to have someone accompany her at all times. No one could guarantee that a rabid fan wouldn't go to the hospital and harm her.Carl had been the one who called that nurse over that afternoon, so he probably had her contact details. Carl replied very quickly. Even the text he sent bore some resentment.It read, "Your reminder is coming too late. I saw that girl crying this afternoon when she checked her phone. The hospital also received some local packages. Guess what was in them? There was a dead rat and a dead cat. There were a bunch of death threats too. They scared the girl so much that she fai

"By the way, make sure you eat well at Sam's place. Don't sleep in until this hour and skip breakfast every time."Just before ending the call, Ethan couldn't help but offer a few more words of advice."Sam might not be the most attentive person. He might not take great care of you, but you shouldn't be reckless either just because you're young. Understand?""Okay, I got it, Ethan. You should get back to work."Rebecca responded half-heartedly, then promptly ended the call.Fortunately, Sam wasn't around to hear him. If he had, they would have likely argued for the entire morning, and he wouldn't have been able to catch up on his work.Rebecca hung up. She took a bite of her bread and was about to sip her coffee when a news notification popped up on her phone."Official Report: Prominent Actress Jessica Brown Detained for Assaulted"Rebecca was shocked. She couldn't bother drinking her coffee anymore. She immediately tapped on the notification to read more.The news was releas

Rebecca was back at Four Seasons.Unwilling to give up, Rebecca prepared a lemon chicken and some stir-fried vegetables for Liam. This time, the dishes seemed rushed and lacked the same sincerity as before.But since Liam decided to visit again, it meant her culinary skills were still commendable.Also, Liam did not agree or refuse to come and treat her mother. It meant she still had a chance."Uncle Liam, please try it."Rebecca placed the two dishes before Liam. When she uncovered the lemon chicken, a delightful aroma filled the room, along with the rising steam. The vegetables also looked so appealing that they made one's mouth water just by looking at them.Liam was a foodie. He was eager to try the lemon chicken as soon as it was served. Yet, out of respect for Rebecca, he tried to maintain a dignified demeanor. He finally took up his fork after Rebecca greeted him and picked up a piece before putting it in his mouth."How does it taste?"Seeing the food enter Liam's mou

Rebecca nodded lightly and explained briefly, "Mr. Jenkins, you've probably seen my situation online. I've found my relatives now, and I'm divorced. "So, I'll be going back home. My family doesn't live in Riverwood, and my affairs here are pretty much settled. There's no need to stay any longer."As for which city she was heading to, she didn't elaborate. Firstly, it wasn't necessary, as she wasn't close to Maxwell. Secondly, she didn't want anyone from her past to be related to her future. Even though Maxwell was a fleeting memory from her past, he was still connected to those bygone days.She didn't want to dwell on her failed love in the past, nor did she want to remember the people from her past.She was aware of her own stubbornness in some aspects. Otherwise, she wouldn't have held onto Daniel for so many years despite the presence of many wealthy and decent suitors in her social circle. Even if she accepted her role as a pawn in the Brown family's political game, she

"Oh, it's nothing. A customer said this dish wasn't authentic, so I was surprised to hear Ms. Jones say it was. But everyone has different tastes, right?"It's normal for different people to have different types of feedback. Anyway, let's eat while everything's still hot."Rebecca didn't intend to say much. She explained perfunctorily before smiling.Maxwell didn't seem to want to let the matter slide, though. After a short silence, he said, "As you said, Becca, everyone has different preferences. Maybe that customer only said that because this dish is slightly different from what he remembers."It might not have anything to do with the dish itself." He added politely, "You don't mind me calling you that, do you? It's how I used to address you when we were younger."Rebecca did feel a little awkward at the suggested intimacy, but she couldn't make him change. She smiled and shook her head. "It's fine."Maxwell filled their glasses with more water. His attention was obviously stil
