When Dorothy wake up. Everett had already left
Since it was the weekend, she got up and cleaned the house after freshening up before heading to the
hospital with the food she had prepared.
Upon reaching Ward V1, she saw two men standing at the door. They were the typical bodyguard types
you see in TV shows, dressed in ck and stone–faced.
As she approached, they blocked her.
“ess to this ward requires the consent of the person inside!
“Im Be’s daughter”
At first, Dorally thought this was something the hospital had arranged, but after inquiring, she found out
that they were actually Everett’s personal bodyguards.
After verifying her identity, she was allowed into the ward.
Be, seeing her daughter, hurriedly asked, “Who are these two men standing outs de? They’re so
intimidating Even the doctors had to show their IDs today
Dorothy put down the lunch box and exined. The hospital has upped their security since strangers
have beening into your werd.”
“But isn’t that a b1 over the top? I don’t see this in alte words “Be took a few bites of her food, then
remembered something ‘Right! You haven’t told me about your boyfriend What does he do for a living?
He sure seems loaded. I asked around about the price for a VIP room, and its 1,000 dors just for the
bed per day! You better spill the beans. Don’t try to keep me in the dark
“M’s 1,000 dors a day for this ce
This was the first time Dorothy heard the price for a VIP room. She knew it would be expensive. She
thought it would be around a hundred or two, but she hadn’t expected it to be this much
Be became even more worried after seeing her daughter’s surprised expression.
“What’s this guy’s game? Why is he spending money on you but not telling you why?” She thought
hard, then panicked “This guy… he’s not after your organs, is he?!”
Dorothy was gute mpressed with her mother’s ability to jump to conclusions. She was probably the first
person to think that Everen was involved in organ trafficking
“Are you watching loo much TV? As she busily made her mother’s bed and cleaned the wheelchair she
said, “Mom, starting next Monday, Ill be working at the head office. Il a so need to go to Havenbrook on
a business trip, so I won’t be able to visit for a few days. Please take care of yourself and don’t worry
me.”
“You’re going back to Havenbrook?”
Just the mention of the ce made Be look ke she’d heard a trigger word. Her face suddenly
clouded over
“It’s for work. It’s not a vacation. I have to do as thepany says.”
Besides, she didn’t have any qualms about Haverbrock. She didn’t have any family or friends there, nor
any fond memories to reminisce about
*Just be careful, and bring your boyfriend over when you return from your trip.”
Why was she banging up the boyfriend issue again?
“He’s very busy. He doesn’t have the time. Helle when he’s free
“You silly girl. Your mom just wants to vet him for you Just because we’re using his money now doesn’t
mean I ept any son–inw Il ites to it, we can just not do the operation, and fil leave the
hospital.”

-Dorothy was gelling a headache and didn’t want to continue the conversation.
She pulled up a chair and sat down. Just as she was about to check her phone, she noticed a missed
call from an unknown number. Worried it might be work–rted, she quickly got up and stepped
outside the ward in retum the call.
After a few rings, it was picked up.
“Is this Dorothy? Can youe to the head off co right now? I need to discuss the contract for the
SineSess Enterprises project with you in detail,
The voice sounded familiar. She recognized it night away as Heather’s.
“Winght. Tim heading over now.”
