“Nevertheless, I am still very grateful that you saved him,” the young man thanked ina again. “My
name is Jaydon Becker. The old man inside is my father.”
“ina Gainsford.” She had a good impression of Jaydon, and the operation was a great sess, and
therefore she was at ease.
“Ms. Gainsford, I wonder if I can trouble you to tell me more about my father’s situation,” Jaydon said in
embarrassment.
ina nodded and motioned for him to follow her. “Sure. Come with me to the office,” she said.
She was the doctor, and she had the obligation to exin the patient’s situation to the patient’s family
members.
ina and Jaydon walked to her office, while she took the lead. Jalen, who was aside, waspletely
ignored.
Up ahead, ina only realized that something was wrong after walking for a while. She thought, where
is Jalen?
She turned around and looked back. Jalen was nowhere to be found. She thought, when did he leave?
Howe I didn’t notice?

“Ms. Gainsford?” Seeing her stop, Jaydon was a little confused. He didn’t know what she was looking
at.
ina came back to her senses and shook her head. “Nothing. Let’s go.”
Outside the hospital, Jalen opened the car door and sat in. “Go back to the old mansion.”
“Mr. Halton, how is Mr. Becker? Was he rescued?” Graham started the car and asked subconsciously.
Jalen nodded. He was obviously in a bad mood.
As Jalen’s assistant, Graham noticed at once. At the thought of the fact that ina was the one who
had performed the surgery for Zayden, he was certain that Jalen’s gloominess had everything to do
with ina.
A trace of hesitation shed across Graham’s eyes. In the end, he made up his mind and said, “Mr.
Halton, you … have feelings for Ms. Gainsford for real?”
He didn’t mean to pry. It was just that he found things were tooical to be real. Jalen did not answer
Graham. Instead, he looked up at Graham, who was driving. “What is it? You’ve got a problem?”
“Of course not.”
Graham shook his head hastily and was terrified. “You and Ms. Gainsford were married for two years,
yet that still didn’t make you fall in love with her. And now you’ve just gotten divorced…”
Graham did not continue. It wasn’t because he didn’t want to. It was simply because he didn’t dare to.
He had already sensed the cold aura from Jaleń.
“I haven’t seen her in these years, so it makes sense that I don’t know her. But you are my assistant.
Are you acting like a proper one? Howe you don’t know her either?” Jalen said coldly.
Jalen thought, if Graham had recognized ina from the beginning, maybe there would have been less
misunderstanding between her and me.
Graham was speechless and helpless. He had suggested before, saying that he wanted to go and see
if ina needed anything in the Halton’s Residence. However, Jalen said no, iming that it was
unnecessary. That was why he didn’t get a chance to see ina.
Of course, he could onlyin silently. On no ground did he dare to say it out loud.
“I didn’t do my job well.” Graham was helpless. He knew Jalen was furious, so he thoughtfully decided
that an apology would be a wise choice now.
Jalen did not really me Graham. After all, he was the one who stopped Graham from inquiring about
ina. Back then, it was he that did not care about ina, his wife. He never saw todaying.
Jalen did not speak for a long while. Graham, who was driving, could not help but persuade, “Mr.
Halton, if you really care about Ms. Gainsford, you have to understand her attitude towards you now.”
“What do you mean?” Jalen frowned.
“You ignored her for two years, and now you say you like her. No woman can ept that. So, I think
Ms. Gainsford’s bad attitude towards you now is justified,” he tried tofort Jalen.
Jalen frowned, and Graham continued, “To put it bluntly, in her eyes, you are not only a stranger. You’re
a stranger who wasted two years of her youth.”
