James' face was expressionless as he closed the final report. "Nothing."He then turned to Wendell and said, "Destroy this."Wendell immediately moved to do so, but Beverly reached out and held the report first. "Is there a problem?"James suddenly grabbed Beverly's hand, and Wendell, taking the hint, retrieved a ring box from his pocket. Inside sat a stunning emerald ring.James slipped the ring onto Beverly's ring finger.Beverly raised her hand to look at it. "I already have a silver band.""Some people are blind."James handed the file to Wendell, then stood up to personally open the hospital room door for Beverly. It was a gentlemanly gesture he'd never made for anyone else.Beverly froze for a second before her lips curled up. "Were you just joking? Haha. It was hilarious," she deadpanned.It really wasn't.As she stepped out of the hospital room, the tall figure beside her suddenly leaned down and scooped her into his arms.Beverly's eyes widened immediately. "Chief,

James placed Beverly on the bed, letting her lie her head on his arm, and told her to close her eyes. He sat with his back against the headboard, leaning in close. "Kathy is listening outside."How long was she planning to call him "Chief"? She was starting to get on his nerves.James' warm breath brushed against Beverly's face, making her flush with embarrassment. "James… Has she left?" she asked softly.James pulled the blanket up over her. His large hand wrapped around her and rested on her back, lightly patting her through the thin covers. "No. Sleep."Beverly hadn't slept well the night before, and after the whole mess today and getting injured as well, she was clearly exhausted. The dark circles under her eyes only proved that. Though she fought with sheer willpower, somehow, the steady rhythm of James patting her back made her fall asleep quickly.When James saw her sound asleep, he brushed the messy strands of hair out of her face and quietly studied her for a long time. T

Tabitha and Beverly supported Evan, one on each side, as they rushed him over to the emergency room."Doctor! Come quick!"Medical staff rushed over. "What's the problem?""His back was scalded by boiling water.""Get him on the bed, face down, immediately!" the doctor barked.Evan tightly gripped Beverly's hand, so she had no choice but to follow the doctor's instructions and help him onto the bed in the treatment room."It looks very serious. We'll need to give him anesthesia. Then we'll remove the shirt that's stuck to the wound first."Beverly blurted out instinctively, "He's allergic to anesthesia. It'll send him into shock."Tabitha froze when she heard this. When she saw the deep emotion welling up in Evan's eyes, she felt a pang of discomfort."Can you handle it?" the doctor asked Evan."Yes, I can," Evan said through gritted teeth.He gripped Beverly's hand even more tightly, refusing to let go no matter what. However, he pushed Tabitha away. "It'll be bloody. Wait

James stood still, watching Beverly rub her wrist, while Carly's heart twisted into a knot.Just then, Marvin entered the room. "Wanda, Carly lost a child because of James. She nearly lost her life too," he said."What?" Wanda gasped, utterly shocked.She pulled Carly into her arms. "How did it happen? Was it because of what happened back then?"Carly didn't say anything, but her silence was practically an acknowledgment."You silly child, why didn't you say anything? James has done wrong by you," Wanda said. She couldn't bear to hear such things, and her heart ached even more for Carly."Carly was afraid of ruining James' reputation. James might've had that glass of wine by mistake back then, but it remains a fact that he took my sister's innocence. "Wanda, our family has always protected the Bronsons' reputation. Even when I found out what happened, I never told a soul," Marvin added.Wanda replied, "Our family has let you down. James has let Carly down."When she saw James

Beverly wasn't going to return to the Bronsons.Carly was secretly overjoyed. She stepped forward and hooked her arm around James', saying, "James, let's not intrude on Ms. Sinclair and Mr. Gray's reunion."Evan didn't react, but Carly had said exactly what he was thinking.James' brow twitched, and he slipped his arm from Carly's grip. Her face fell, but she didn't dare cling to him again.Then, James turned to the door and said, "Come in."Everyone looked at the doorway in surprise.Two people entered the room. One was the waiter from Heritage Table, while the other was a notorious trust fund playboy from their social circle."Mrs. Bronson Senior, Mr. Bronson, she was the one who ordered me to pour boiling water on Ms. Sinclair," the waiter said, pointing at Carly and not Marvin.The playboy followed up quickly, "Mrs. Bronson Senior, James, Ms. Henderson was the one who told me to spread the news about it."Carly felt as though she'd been dunked in freezing water, her entire
