Ashton ran after her, calling, "Hannah, wait.""Yes, Dr. Ashton?""What's going on?"Hannah didn't answer Ashton; instead, she turned her attention to Roger."Sir, I need to talk to Dr. Ashton first," Hannah said. "It's about the distribution of medicine."Roger nodded. "Of course."At the same time, Penelope approached, but when she saw Ashton and Hannah about to talk, she turned and left with Roger. Hannah caught a glimpse of Penelope looking back at her out of the corner of her eye."Honey, I didn't know you were coming," Ashton said."It's a surprise.""Then why are you acting so cold to me?""Well, I didn't want to interrupt you and that woman."Ashton was taken aback for a few seconds, then frowned in confusion. "Penelope?""Whoever she is, go on with whatever you do with her.""I wanted to tell everyone here that we're getting married."Hannah shook her head. "We're keeping this

Penelope gasped, utterly shocked that Ashton had found out. She froze, unable to move. She lowered her head and began to sob softly."I'm sorry," Penelope whispered.Ashton held back his emotions, then fixed his sharp gaze on her. "It's true, isn't it? You put something in Hannah's food?""I'm sorry," Penelope repeated."What is your problem?" Terry looked stunned. "Penelope, what did you do?""I just..." Penelope was at a loss for words.Terry grabbed Penelope's arm and dragged her into the center of the village hall. Without hesitation, she began interrogating her in front of everyone. Penelope looked distraught as she finally admitted everything.Ashton had never imagined that Penelope had feelings for him. To him, she was nothing more than a colleague in the program. He had never thought of her in any other way.Seeing Penelope cornered by so many people made Ashton feel sorry for her. Just because of a simple crush, her re

Hannah walked briskly into the hospital lobby and spotted a man sitting and fiddling with his phone. It was Simon Phoenix, the aspiring doctor Victoria had recommended. Without wasting any time, Hannah approached him."Dr. Phoenix?" Hannah smiled.The man looked up at her for a few seconds before standing. He seemed awkward. "M-my father asked me to meet Mrs. Victoria. But she's not here."Behind his glasses, Simon looked extremely shy and stiff, but from Hannah's first impression, he seemed like a good person. No one would have guessed that Simon was an heir to a super-rich family, just like Ashton."That's right," Hannah nodded. "Victoria asked me to meet with you instead. Shall we go to my office now?""Ah, yes. Sure."As they walked, Hannah made small talk, asking about Simon's studies. Simon was quite intelligent; he had already completed his residency at 23, which was rare in the medical field. Most people his age were still interns.

Ashton knocked on Hannah's door, but before she could answer, he burst in. His face looked pale as he immediately approached her."I feel like I just saw a mini-me," Ashton said.Hannah jumped. "Simon, huh?""Did you see his haircut? His style?" Ashton sat on the sofa and shook his head in disbelief. "I didn't mind at first. But now that he's actually doing all this, honestly, it's starting to bother me."Hannah moved closer and sat beside him, holding her boyfriend's hand."Maybe I should talk to Simon... He looks way too much like you," she suggested."I don't know, Hannah. This is such a tricky situation. He'll probably think I'm overreacting.""And the way he's turning into you is what's really overreacting, honey.""It's best if we just let it go. He's on probation for three months, and I'll make sure Mom gets him out of here."Truthfully, if Ashton disliked Simon, he could have just asked Victoria to fire him from

Ashton asked Candace and Kimberly about Hannah's whereabouts, but none knew where she was. After Ashton explained the situation, the three met on purpose.Kimberly looked pensive as she tried to call Hannah but didn't answer. However, Hannah responded to Kimberly's text."Look, Hannah responded to my message. She said, 'What is it, Kimby?' That sounds like her," Kimberly said."But, weirdly, she's not answering your call," Candace said worriedly. "I'm afraid Hannah might be threatened or something...like someone's watching her when she has her phone."Kimberly nodded. "You're right."Listening to their conversation, Ashton's face grew paler. He might go crazy if he didn't find out where Hannah was.Kimberly stared at the screen of her phone. "Ah, I have an idea."She quickly tapped out a reply to Hannah:"Hannah, are you in Zurich with Patrick Suazen discussing Mrs. Victoria's project? If so, please review the agreement with hi
