Semua Bab When She Turns Her Back: Bab 231 - Bab 240

Now, Talia was just a low-level pediatric surgeon who didn't even have the qualifications to perform surgery. She was moved and said no more.Just then, two young ladies in the distance waved at Cecilia. "Cecilia, come dance with us!"Cecilia called back loudly, "Coming!"With that, she looked down at Talia and said, "Talia, I'm going to hang out with my friends now."Talia nodded. "Okay. Stay safe."Cecilia stood and took a few steps, but then stopped. She turned back to look at Talia and smiled. "Talia, I won't change my mind about studying medicine. I think if I had been there when you gave birth to Yvonne, I definitely wouldn't have let you be so scared."She wanted to study medicine and specialize in obstetrics and gynecology. She didn't want women to be afraid of childbirth.Listening to Cecilia's words, Talia couldn't help but be moved. Remembering the scenes from when she gave birth to Yvonne, her heart grew anxious, and tears fell from her eyes. The more she thought abo

Talia was sure that once Christian made sure Nancy was safe, he would come back to the banquet hall to find her. But ultimately, it was all just a dream. Christian never came back, and he didn't even call her again.He'd clearly said he was coming to pick her up, but now he'd left with Nancy instead.Seeing Talia staring blankly, Quentin followed her gaze. He also saw Christian and Nancy.Guessing what was making Talia sad, Quentin let out a disdainful snort. "Talia, you gave your life to the wrong person. Not only did you let yourself down, but you..."He was thinking, "You're letting me down too."However, Quentin didn't say those last words aloud.Talia was indeed upset, but after a moment, she came to understand. Christian didn't love her, so how could he care whether she lived or died?Once she'd recovered, Talia said to Quentin, "Thank you for earlier."Quentin turned his face away from her and asked in a low voice, "Do you regret it?"Talia answered honestly, "I do."W

Yvonne didn't like Talia, but whenever she felt unwell, she would think of how kind Talia was.Talia's hands were warm. After she rubbed Yvonne's belly with those hands, the pain would truly ease.Nancy would rub her belly too, but Nancy's hands had no magic. The pain would still linger.Considering Talia's attitude, Christian didn't know how to discuss it with Yvonne.After a while, he lowered his head and rubbed Yvonne's forehead before softly saying, "I can help you rub your tummy too."Yvonne responded with a hum and exposed her belly.When Christian gently pressed his palm to her tummy, she suddenly giggled.Seeing how happy she was, he couldn't help spoiling the moment. "Yvonne, we need to get used to days without your mom from now on, okay?"Yvonne kicked her legs and shrugged casually as she said, "I'm already very used to it. I just think of her when I feel sick. But I won't if you're by my side."Christian finally felt relieved. He picked Yvonne up, kissed her forehe

Perhaps worried that Connor's outburst might attract Franklin's attention, Margaret didn't let Connor chase after Talia. Instead, she whispered to him, "Connor, I'm here. I'll handle this for you."Connor was furious. "Mom, you must make her pay. You must! And don't forget about that time she hit me."Margaret kept nodding. "Don't worry. I'll think of something."…After arriving at the hospital, Talia had a colleague from her department treat her wound.Her arm was scraped, so they did a simple disinfection and bandaged it. Although it wasn't serious, it still affected her work pace.That evening, because she needed to finish writing medical records, she worked an extra hour and only left the hospital after 7:00 pm.Talia didn't dare return to the Stewart residence. She feared her family would worry, and even more, that Garrett might go after the Lanes for her.The Lane and Stewart families were on very different levels. If they seriously offended the Lane family, the Stewarts

By the time Talia returned to the Stewart residence, everyone was already asleep.She cautiously climbed up the stairs and opened her bedroom door. She didn't turn on the light right away. Instead, after closing the door, she stood there and let out a long sigh.The divorce had been draining her emotionally.Christian had agreed to it, but the process was painfully slow. Even the divorce agreement had not been finalized yet.But no matter how much she wanted to rush, it simply couldn't be hurried.As Talia gathered herself and reached out to turn on the light, her hand unexpectedly touched something warm.Startled, she instinctively stepped back, only to be pulled back firmly by strong arms. Seconds later, she found herself pinned against the door.A familiar scent of cigarette smoke invaded her nose. Struggling, she growled, "Quentin, let go of me."Quentin leaned in, and his hot breath landed on her face. When she turned away, his breath brushed against her neck.Without say
