When Sophia and Elliot arrived at the hospital, the former first visited Dorothy’s ward. To Sophia’s surprise, Daniel was also there. Upon entering, Sophia greeted them and sat by the bedside, revealing a small box she had brought from home."Grandma, is this what you asked me to bring?"Dorothy touched the small box and nodded. "Yes, that's it.""Do you want to take a look?"“It's okay. Just put it away for now."Sophia did not overthink it and put the small box away.Daniel looked at her with anger and frustration evident in his eyes. "Why didn't you tell me before you left?"He would not have let Elliot go up the mountain if he had known she had returned to Westo. If Elliot found her, it would be a big win.Sophia asked, "What's wrong?"Daniel hesitated before saying, "Nothing. Since you're back, I'll leave."Naturally, Sophia sensed he had something to say. "Then I'll walk you out."With that, she left the ward with him and asked, “What’s wrong?”Daniel responded, "Did

Although the place retained a natural mountain shape, it was clearly man-made. There were stone steps, pavilions, and a babbling spring. Occasionally, the distant calls of animals echoed. The air was fresh, and the scenery was picturesque.It was a gorgeous place.Sophia said, "All right."'Alright?' The bodyguard was puzzled. He glanced at Sophia and suggested, "Ms. Sophy, our young master keeps some animals here. Are you afraid? Maybe..."Sophia interrupted, "It's okay, I'm not afraid." With that, she walked in.The bodyguard was speechless. Seeing her enter, he quickly called Samuel, "Ms. Sophy went to the mountains. She refuses to leave and insists on waiting for the young master."Samuel was equally surprised. "She really went in?"The bodyguard confirmed, "Yes. I even warned her about the animals, but she said she's not afraid."Samuel cautioned, "Keep an eye on her and ensure nothing goes wrong. Also, have the family doctor on standby at all times."He gave a series o

Elliot held back a grin as he looked at Sophia. He thought she was probably more confused than he was moments ago. “Sorry, I kept you waiting.”Sophia said nothing.Jeffrey tried to explain hurriedly. “That’s right, Sophy. Elliot thought you were here in the hospital, so he came. I’m sorry you went all the way there for nothing. Do you recognize me? You saved me when I had a heart attack by the road.”Elliot looked at his grandpa in disbelief. They couldn’t let Sophia’s grandmother know about her medical skills. Why was Grandpa saying all this in front of her? He pretended to cough a few times. Jeffrey caught himself instantly and clarified, “Oh. What I meant was I would have been in serious trouble if you hadn’t called me an ambulance.” Dorothy did not notice anything and started introducing Sophia to everyone. “This is Jeffrey’s grandson, Sophy. Meet Elliot Patton.”‘Hold on! What’s his name? Did Grandma just say he’s Elliot Patton? Did he save Grandma? Oh, gosh, I need a s

Elliot stared at Sophia. “I did all that weeding for a whole day. Wasn’t that good enough for you?”Sophia was quiet for a while before saying, “It was, but you stood me up today. Did you forget that you sent me to the mountain full of vicious animals?” Elliot grinned. “Were you scared?”Sophia said, “Why would I be scared? Anyway, you can pay me ten million dollars.”“Is that for the treatment?”“The treatment is five million dollars.”“What’s the ten million dollars for?”“That’s for when I caught the snakes for you.”“What happened to them?”“I relocated them.”Elliot looked at Sophia questioningly. “Where did you move them?” Sophia smirked. “You’ll have to pay up if you want to know.”Elliot stared at her. He did not care about that. He tried to revisit the topic of his grandpa’s treatment. “You can come over and treat my grandpa in the afternoon or whenever your grandma’s taking a nap.”“That depends on when you transfer the money to me.”“Looks like I should wor

Samuel knew Elliot was standing up for him. He was moved but did not want the Patton brothers to argue because of him. So, he said glumly, “I did tell Ezekiel about that. Perhaps he misunderstood me.”Ethan was standing behind Ezekiel. He said, “Ezekiel isn’t to blame, Elliot. He might not have heard Samuel clearly. He probably didn’t know there was a doctor in there. He was in a hurry to see Grandpa.”Elliot wouldn’t let it go. “It doesn’t matter if there’s a doctor in there or not. If you had just thought about it for a second, you wouldn't have been shouting right outside the ward of someone who’s suffered a heart attack. Who will take responsibility if Grandpa goes into shock like he did when Edward came?”Ezekiel frowned and spoke angrily, “There’s no need to exaggerate, Elliot. Would I have shouted if you hadn’t posted a piece of trash to stand guard here?”Elliot glared at Ezekiel. “So, were you trying to humiliate me by hitting my man?” Ethan quickly tried to mediate. “Th
