Jamie ran over, her heart pounding, terrified that the elderly woman might vanish before she could reach her. “Mom, how are you here?” She grabbed the woman’s hand, her eyes brimming with tears of joy. She expected recognition, perhaps even relief, but instead, the woman recoiled in fear. “Don’t hit me, I’ll leave right away,” the woman stammered, trembling. Jamie’s heart shattered. “Why would I hit you? Mom, it’s me, Jamie, your daughter!” “I don’t know you.” The words hit Jamie like a bolt of lightning. Not know her? How could that be? There was no way she could mistake her own mother. Her mind raced, turmoil bubbling beneath the surface, but seeing how scared the woman looked, Jamie softened her tone. “I would never hurt you. Please, just take a good look at my face.” The woman hesitated for a long moment before slowly lifting her head. She wasn’t as old as Jamie had imagined. Her haggard appearance came from neglect, her unkempt clothes and disheveled h

Jamie stayed by Linda’s side throughout the examination. When the results came back, the doctor adjusted his glasses, his expression unusually serious. “It appears her brain has been damaged by drugs. Do you know what might have happened to her in the past?” Jamie clenched her hands tightly, her voice trembling. “My mom went missing for many years. We don’t know much about what happened during that time.” The doctor studied them carefully, but their genuine expressions dispelled any suspicion he might have had. “It seems that during those years, someone injected her with harmful substances.” Jamie’s heart sank. “Does that mean she’ll be like this forever?” Her voice quivered as the fear gripped her. She couldn’t bear the thought of her mother living like this for the rest of her life. Sensing her tension, the doctor softened his tone. “Don’t worry. With proper care, there’s still a chance she could recover.” A wave of relief washed over Jamie. It matched what Wi

Mrs. Lucas couldn’t help but think back to how she had once treated Jamie. Now, to lower herself and ask for Jamie’s help felt humiliating, even to her. She couldn’t help but feel that what she was doing was utterly inappropriate.Jamie poured her a glass of water and handed it to her with a calm smile. “Mrs. Lucas, please take your time.”Mrs. Lucas stared into Jamie’s eyes, noticing the calmness and sincerity there. She hesitated for a moment before finally taking the glass. After a long pause, she spoke hesitantly, “I want to apologize for how I treated you before. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have done that. And now, having to come to you like this, even I find it hard to look at myself.”“You don’t need to say that, Mrs. Lucas,” Jamie replied gently.“Jamie, I want to ask for your help to talk to Ben,” Mrs. Lucas said, taking a deep breath before continuing. She slowly began explaining what had happened over the past few days. Ever since Ben had walked out that day, he hadn’t

Jamie hesitated, unsure how to explain. She couldn’t exactly say, “They just want to eat on your dime and indulge in a feast, that’s all.”“Do you have something to say?” Ben raised an eyebrow.Jamie didn’t expect him to see through her so quickly. She took a deep breath. “Yes, actually. They want to go out for a team dinner.”She blurted it all out in one go, then stood there quietly, waiting for his response.To her surprise, Ben’s eyebrows arched a little higher, but his expression didn’t shift much. “That’s it?”Then, without hesitation, he approved it.When Jamie relayed his response, the team was in disbelief.“What? Ben actually agreed?”“No way! I thought for sure he’d shut it down. He’s such a workaholic, always buried in his work without taking a break. Who would’ve thought he’d be so easygoing about this?”The assistant, however, knew better. It wasn’t that Ben was particularly agreeable. It was just that he tended to be more accommodating when it came to Jamie.Th

Jamie paid the cab fare and got out of the car. “Thank you. I’ll get off here.”After stepping out, she headed straight for the black car. As she reached it, she knocked on the window. Ben turned his head at the sound, his gaze landing on her with mild surprise. Rolling the window down, her voice reached him. “Ben, unlock the door.”His eyes flickered with a trace of emotion, and after a moment of hesitation, he reached over and unlocked the door. Jamie climbed in without wasting a second. “Why did you come here alone without saying a word? You know Charlie hasn’t been dismissed from school yet at this hour.” “I just came to take a look.” “I already heard about it from your assistant,” Jamie said, cutting to the point. Ben’s lips twisted into a bitter, self-deprecating smile. “You don’t need to tell me. I already know who’s behind it.” He didn’t need to guess. The only person capable of putting him in such a position and didn’t want him to be a lawyer, was his fath
