Chapter 795


    Every bit of her worth had been exploited by Ethan!


    Still, she couldn’t afford to cross him. If she did, she might never find work again.


    After all, she had been fired by Lysander. Anypany in Starhaven that knew about it wouldn’t dare


    hire her.


    Plus, the Crawley Group offered her a very high sry, and it was impossible for her to have such a


    high sry outside.


    Hence, she had no choice but to continue slogging at the Crawley Group.


    Thssa hid her resentment towards Ethan. shing him a radiant smile, she said, “Mr. Ethan, do you


    enjoy mixing personal grudges with work?”


    “Not at all. I keep business strictly professional,” Ethan replied earnestly.


    Grinding her teeth, Thssa forced a smile. “Alright, Mr. Ethan. I’m off to pick out the gift now.”


    As she turned around, her smile faded, and she muttered under her breath, “Ethan, you damn boss.


    One day, I’ll fire you!”


    Ethan watched her retreating figure, smirking. He knew she was cursing him. Ever since Thssa


    joined the Crawley Group, his mundane office life had be much more interesting.


    Thssa and Ethan went to visit Leopold in the hospital after shopping.


    Before they even entered the room, they could hear a woman’s distressed cries and reproaches.


    “Leopold, my son, how did you get so hurt? Your scars from thest motorcycle ident haven’t fully


    healed, and now you’re injured again. Why don’t you take better care of yourself? What would I do if


    something happened to you?”


    Amelia sat by Leopold’s bed, tears streaming down her face. She held his uninjured hand, quivering


    with distress, yet being careful not to squeeze too hard.


    “Mom, don’t cry. I’m not dead,” Leopold said.


    “Shush! Don’t say such unlucky things! Spit it out!” Amelia, pale with fright, spat several times as if to


    erase the word “dead” from Leopold’s sentence.


    When Ethan entered with Thssa, he greeted him politely, “Leopold, how are you feeling?”


    Lying on the bed, Leopold looked over at them. His eyes lit up with excitement and surprise when he


    saw Thssa standing behind Ethan.


    Thssa noticed Leopold the moment she entered. His upper body was bare, bandages wrapped


    around his body and one arm, a brownish stain seeping through the white bandage on his chest. His


    other arm had an IV needle in it. But he seemed to be in good spirits. So it should be minor injuries,


    nothing serious.


    Sitting by his bedside was Amelia, her face tear-streaked. On the other side of the bed was Zephyr; his


    temples flecked with more gray hair than before, looking much older and less energeticpared to


    when Grandma Sybil was alive.


    “I’ll be fine. I’ll be discharged in a few days,” Leopold responded to Ethan’s greeting, his eyes never


    leaving Thssa. Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.


    “That’s good to hear. I’ve had my secretary pick out a few things for you. I hope you like them,” Ethan


    replied, turning to Thssa and signaling her to bring over the gifts.


    His words were well-chosen, indicating that the gifts were from him but selected by Thssa. Given


    Leopold’s feelings for Thssa, he was sure to like anything she chose.


    Getting the hint, Thssa quickly brought over the gifts and ced them by the bed. After she was


    done, she looked up and met Leopold’s intense gaze.


    Thssa hesitated slightly before saying politely, “Mr. Sinir, make sure you rest and recover fully.


    There’s no need to rush your discharge. If you’re not well, Mr. Ethan will be worried.”
