Carl was sitting on the sofa reviewing documents. He glanced up at her."Awake? It fits well.""Mm."She nodded, then felt something odd about his comment.Just then, Jackson came from the kitchen."Mr. Grey, Miss Lacey, breakfast is ready."Carl closed his documents, got up, and led Renee to the dining table."The driver will take you to the studio later."Renee checked the time and didn't refuse: "Okay."Near the end of breakfast, she glanced at him discreetly, asking with genuine concern: "Uncle Carl, you took medicine yesterday - how do you feel today?"Carl's expression tightened slightly: "I'm fine."Renee reminded him: "Remember to take your medicine after breakfast to be safe.""Mm."Carl put down his utensils and stared at her across the table.Renee noticed his gaze and shifted uncomfortably: "Why are you staring at me?"He wiped his hands, saying softly: "Rare to see you caring about me."Just as Renee was about to object, a security guard knocked and entered

"What is it?""I hear grandfather is getting increasingly harsh with you. Would you like to leave with me?" Travis looked at her intently.Renee put down her teacup. Seeing his expression, she figured she wouldn't get any answers from him, so she replied politely: "Mr. Grey, I'm finished. Let's go."As she stood to leave, Travis suddenly gripped her wrist tightly.She stared at him in pain, catching a flash of something strange in his eyes that vanished instantly.Travis stood up with a sigh, noticed her collar was turned inward, and smiled: "I just wanted to fix your collar.""Mm."Renee glanced at her now-fixed collar and immediately headed for the door.Meanwhile.Ms. Johnson rested her chin on her hand, losing her appetite for the delicious food because of the mood-killing man across from her."Mr. Grey, aren't you going to check on her? Your niece is brave, still daring to associate with Travis.""I heard he sold Clark Corp's vital technology and is secretly selling the

"Joey, he never drinks tea, give it to me."But before she could touch the cup, Carl took it."Who says I don't drink tea?""..."Renee stared at Carl in surprise as he took a sip.She felt he was acting strangely.Not thinking much of it, she nibbled on a couple of cookies for politeness.Finally, when Joey finished eating, Renee wanted her to leave. As she stood to help clean up, Joey's briefly rested tongue started gossiping again."Really broke up?" she asked while wiping the table."Mm." Renee glanced at Carl and nodded.They were never together anyway.Joey's eyes lit up, dropping a bombshell: "I can set you up!""What?"Renee was startled.Joey looked up at Carl, assuring him: "Mr. Grey, don't worry. I'll thoroughly screen their character, won't let your niece get hurt.""What do you think, dear niece?" Carl fixed his gaze on Renee, his voice cold and frosty.Renee felt a chill down her spine, quickly shaking her head: "No need."Joey's good nature showed here -

"How do you know my mom's symptoms?" Renee pressed.Dr. Percy hesitated, then quickly turned away: "I scheduled a CT scan. We need to hurry."Seeing this, Renee immediately took the wheelchair from the driver and pushed Susanne forward.Susanne turned her head slightly: "It was Carl. He noticed something wasn't right when he saw me at the ceremony, so he made an excuse to let me leave. He also asked Dr. Percy to arrange this. Don't get all angry just because I mentioned him.""I'm not." Renee protested."Hmph."Susanne gave her a 'stop being stubborn' look.Outside the CT room, Dr. Percy wrote a number on a card and handed it to Renee."I can't go in with you. This is your number - you're next. Just show it when you go in.""Okay."Renee glanced at the card.The numbers looked familiar, but she couldn't place why.Just then, the door opened, and without looking closely, Renee quickly wheeled Susanne inside.After the CT scan, Dr. Percy took them to see the department head.

Dr. Percy startled: "Why did she drop it here? Why not just call out to me?""Someone was watching her."Carl had already reviewed all security footage on his way over. The cameras showed Renee looking around nervously, clearly being watched.Opening the crumpled paper - the same two sheets Dr. Percy had seen earlier.Dr. Percy quickly put it together: "Earlier she was staring at these papers, asking if I was dating someone named Joey. Who's Joey?""I know who." Carl turned to Jackson, "Call Renee's neighbor."Jackson nodded and made the call.Carl waved the papers at Dr. Percy: "Explain this."Dr. Percy's face darkened in frustration: "It's Connor. He knew my mother was urging me to find a girlfriend. He forged my handwriting to date Joey - Renee's neighbor. But why would he go this far just for Annie?""Chris, have you considered this isn't just about Annie? He's targeting you too. You've always been his cover for wrongdoing." Carl hit the nail on the head."..."Dr. Percy
