Chapter 48
The scent of the scented candle filled rk''s office at the Reid Incorporated headquarters. Combined with the aroma of boiling tea leaves, they
created a soothing environment.
Although rk was a young man, he had a modest sense of living. Added this to his stoic, no-nonsense look, these had given him a much-respected
spot in thepany and made him the sessor at a very young age.
"Mr. Reid, the discussion for the tinum East project had gone pretty well. Here''s thetest update of it," Jeremy said.
rk took the documents from Jeremy and flipped through them while seated on the sofa. "Any news from the hospital?"
"The operation was sessful," Jeremy quickly answered. "Mrs. Reid has been personally taking care of Mrs. Dean. She''s recovering very well and
will be discharged in a week.
"I found that Mrs. Reid has also been looking for houses too."
"Looking for houses? For what?" rk asked.
"I think it''s for Mrs. Dean when she is discharged,” Jeremy said. "They lived in the ke mansion previously.
“But since Mrs. Reid is married, Mrs. Dean will have no rtives left at the kes. So I believe she wouldn''t want to return there."
Jeremy''s exnation was usible. After all, considering Judy''s status in the ke family, Lilly would never live a day in peace in the ke mansion.
rk pondered and said, "Try to arrange something for the house, Jeremy. But do it secretly.”
Jeremy was confused but still replied, "Yes, sir."
Wasn''t rk always unconcerned with Judy? He was very unpredictable.
At the hospital, Judy had been apanying Lilly for a few days. Seeing Lilly getting more energetic day by day, Judy felt relieved.
Dominic came for a ward visit early in the morning. To prevent her from getting a postoperative infection, they transferred Lilly to a single-bed ward,
which was quieter than previously.
"You''ve recovered very well, Mrs. Dean. Considering your performance, you might be able to discharge even sooner." Dominic smiled as he kept his
stethoscope in hisb coat pocket.
"Thank you so much, Dr. Phelps. I truly appreciate it,” Lilly said
Although her head was wrapped in
bandages, Lilly was lively, unlike a
typical post-surgery patient. She-
kept holding Dominic''s hand, and the
more sshe observed him, thegnore
interested I in him she got. Content

"There''s something I''ve been wanting to ask you.” Lilly said.
Dominic smiled. "Sure, ask away."
"Dr. Phelps, what do you think about Judy?" Lilly''s question startled Judy, who was peeling an apple and almost cut herself.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.
Dominic, however, didn''t find the?
question inappropriate and replied
while Isoking at Judy, "Judy''s anice
girl. She''s pretty, easygoing, _and
most importantly, very kinds”
"Do you not mind that she’s mute?" Lilly asked.
Dominic was puzzled. Now he got what Lilly meant.
Before Dominic could answer, Judy stopped Lilly. "What are you talking about, Grandma? Stop it!"
“Look at you. What are you being shy about?" Lillyughed. "You see, Dr. Phelps, you and Judy are around the same age.
‘Although she doesn''t have an
education ‘level as high as you, she
still has é a Master''s degree. Also, she
has 2 stable job at the Tocham
Library as an admin." Content

Lilly talked so much that it felt like she was selling Judy on a blind date. Judy couldn''t stop her and was so embarrassed that she felt like hiding
herself.
"What I''m saying is that Judy is a good girl. You should seriously consider her, Dr. Phelps," Lilly said.
Dominic felt awkward and looked toward Judy. But she lightly shook her head as if asking him for help.
Judging from her look, Dominic knew Lilly was unaware of his rtionship with Judy. She probably didn''t even know that Judy was already married.
After a few chats, Lilly urged Judy toa send Dominic out of the ward, obviously giving them a chance to spend time together.
"I''m sorry, Mr. Phelps. Please don''t take what Grandma said to heart." Judy signed to Dominic as scon as they left the ward.
