Semua Bab Mr. Webb, Make Your Move!: Bab 251 - Bab 260

The night before Sharon's surgery, Zara thought she would be wide awake with worry. To her surprise, however, the next time she opened her eyes after falling asleep was seven in the morning. Sharon was scheduled for surgery at eight. Zara folded up her bed and freshened up in the hospital's bathroom before heading back to the ICU.Soon after, Cheryl and Troy arrived.Right at eight, the nurses wheeled Sharon off to the operating room. The red light that read 'In Surgery' flickered on.That was when Zara started to really worry.She was scared the surgery might not work; scared of unexpected problems; scared that by agreeing to the surgery, she might have made a terrible mistake... However, she knew that without the surgery, Sharon wouldn't stand a chance.Cheryl was super nervous too and started to cry.Troy wrapped his arms around her and said, "Don't worry, it's all going to be okay. The doctors are from overseas. They know what they're doing. Right, Zara?"Zara wanted to be

Yosef was cool and distant. "The doctors and nurses will be there if something unexpected happens, the doctors and nurses are there. What can you do that they can't?"Zara found herself back at East Coast, unable to argue.Meanwhile, Beatrice was driving there too. She spotted Yosef's car from afar and smiled, wanting to go over to him. However, she froze when she saw Zara step out of the car and go inside with him. Her smile vanished, and she was left gasping for air.What was this?...In the main bedroom, Yosef opened the closet, took a quick look, and tossed an old pair of pajamas to Zara. "Go take a shower," he said before leaving with his phone in hand.Zara held the pajamas tightly. She had just stopped worrying about Sharon, and now she was filled with a new kind of nervousness. The surgery was over, and Yosef would want something in return. She could not say no.The window was open, letting in a cool, damp breeze. Dark clouds were rolling in, ready to pour down rain.T

Yosef hesitated before picking up.Beatrice's voice came through in a panic. "Mr. Webb, Mr. Webb! I was driving, and I think I might have hit someone by accident. What should I do?"Yosef's brows creased with concern. "Where are you?""I'm at..." She gave her location, her voice quivering with tears. "Mr. Webb, I'm really scared..."Yosef turned off the shower and said in a deep voice, "Don't be scared. I'm on my way."He stepped out of the bathroom, changed his clothes, and took one last look at the woman on the bed before heading out the door.The door closed with a loud click, and Zara stirred awake.She had a sleepy hunch that Yosef had gone, but she was too tired to care. She rolled over and drifted back to sleep, thinking it was better that he was gone.Zara did not wake up until after nine the next morning.The house was quiet. Yosef had not come back.Just as she got ready to leave after freshening up, her phone rang. It was Yosef."Go into the study and look for the

It was Melanie's own fault.She was the one who brought up the surveillance cameras at home, so Yosef checked the files to make sure the old videos were all overwritten. Indeed, there was nothing to fear.The videos were gone, but the memories stayed with him, distracting him even in meetings.He had to see her, and there she was, asleep on the couch—unguarded.Her head was tilted, showing off the graceful curve of her neck and shoulders.Her skin was so pale and delicate, with just a hint of blue veins showing.Yosef used to think that romance was just a simple part of life, nothing to get too worked up about. After being away from Zara for so long, however, he realized he really missed her. He gently kissed her lips and slowly lifted her nightgown. Zara was caught off guard by his sudden return. She felt trapped on the couch, with no place to hide from his strong embrace. His eyes were half-closed. His face was so close that she could see the details of his eyebrows and nose.

Zara turned to him. "I was fast asleep. I didn't know."Yosef's deep eyes held hers until he was done wiping his hands with the towel. "Shouldn't you ask me why I went out?"Zara's brows creased slightly. "I've never pried into your business before, have I?"Looking calm, he dropped the towel. "You could start asking more."Zara was puzzled. Were his expectations for her really getting that strict?The enchanting Jerring-style restaurant suddenly did not seem so charming anymore.Zara gave a casual nod. "Sure."For the next 72 hours, she had to agree to anything he said.Yosef got up and moved closer to Zara. "What are you looking at?"He peeked at the sight outside. "Feel like going on a boat ride?"Zara shook her head. "No, I'm just checking things out.""I'll take you if you want," Yosef said. Without waiting for her response, he strode out of the room. Zara had only been looking, but now she had no choice but to tag along.He always did whatever he wanted.Yosef quickl
