Obviously, Christian didn't take Talia's words to heart.Talia felt a mix of anger and frustration bubbling up. Almost instinctively, she took a few steps toward Christian and the others.Suddenly, she stopped.Even if she took Yvonne out of the bar that night, what about next time?If she stormed over now, Yvonne would just snap at her for meddling.After hesitating, she decided that it wasn't worth it. Why put in the effort if it wasn't going to be appreciated?She had already done what she was supposed to. The rest was Christian's responsibility.Talia held herself back. She didn't interfere any further and instead took Willow's hand, leaving the bar with her.Once outside, they stood on the street, letting the cool breeze wash over them.After a moment, neither of them mentioned their relationships, as if they had silently agreed not to.Willow turned to Talia and said, "Come with me to pack up my things."Without hesitation, Talia agreed. "Sure."Willow looked surprise

Yvonne's voice wasn't loud, but it wasn't quiet either. Not only Julian, but Christian and the others heard it too.Julian and William instantly caught the meaning. They both glanced at Christian teasingly.Nancy could sense their thoughts, and her face instantly turned red. She lowered her head, too embarrassed to say a single word.Christian, on the other hand, met Julian's and William's gaze calmly.After a moment, he stood and said to Yvonne, "Yvonne, it's time to go."Yvonne looked up at him, clearly reluctant to leave.Seeing that, Christian frowned. "Did you forget what your mom told you?"Mentioning Talia made Yvonne angry, but seeing the hard edge on Christian's face, she didn't dare argue."Fine." Yvonne stood up and reached out her hand to Christian.…The next day was a Monday.When Talia woke up, it was drizzling outside. She threw on a coat, grabbed an umbrella, and left the Stewart residence.By 7:00 am, she was already at Jubilee Manor.Christian had only t

Seeing how cautious Henry was acting, Talia guessed the person he mentioned must be someone important.After waiting about ten minutes, someone finally walked into the restaurant from outside.Henry stood, and Talia followed suit.As she looked toward the entrance, she realized that it was Shawn.Carrying a briefcase and dressed in a suit jacket, Shawn politely nodded, smiled, and said thank you as the waiter held the door open for him.Every expression and movement radiated an air of nobility.But Shawn didn't glance at Henry or Talia as he entered. Instead, he followed the waiter straight into a private room.As he passed by Henry and Talia, Henry started to call out to him, but before he could finish speaking, Shawn followed the waiter to the other side.Shawn ignored them completely, which left both Henry and Talia puzzled.Their eyes followed Shawn. When the private room door opened, they saw several people sitting inside—Christian, Julian, and Nancy.Nancy was the one w

Christian leaned back in his chair, looking relaxed and casual. When Shawn glanced over, their eyes met.In that brief moment, an unspoken battle passed between them.Christian didn't answer Shawn's question. Instead, he turned to Julian and said, "Julian, it seems that Professor Jenner has no intention of joining us for dinner. Please see him out."Julian hesitated. "Chris…"Christian's expression hardened as he repeated, "See him out."Shawn had humiliated Nancy. With Julian's temper, he would stand up for Nancy even if she was wrong. But Christian remained unmoved and instead insisted on sending Shawn away.Julian had no choice but to stand.Just as he rose, Shawn stood as well. He glanced at Julian coldly and said, "No need to see me out, Mr. Gardner. But before I leave, allow me to give you a gentle reminder. My student Henry just saved your mother's life. I may be old, but in the field of medicine, as long as someone's a medical student, I have the right to judge them."W

Talia smiled softly and said, "Professor Jenner, I'm quite confident."Seeing Talia so self-assured, Shawn nodded approvingly before continuing, "Listen, Henry is a good man. He has endured the loneliness of the past few years studying medicine. He has no women around and hardly has any friends."He's been buried in the lab day after day, collecting data, never showing signs of fatigue. I've mentored many students, but he's the only one I have to remind to take breaks."Puffing up his chest with pride, he added, "Fortunately, his hard work paid off. He's discovered new types of brain diseases and developed targeted drugs for them. With patents in hand, no one dares claim they're number one in neurosurgery except him. Among all my students, he's the only one with good character, good looks, a stable personal life, and great achievements."As Talia listened to Shawn's praise of Henry, she glanced at him discreetly, then said, "Professor Jenner, Henry really is a great person."Shawn
