Mnie pursed her lips and carried Merry out of the room.


    Eugene and the doctor followed her. When the doctor saw Mnie’s serious expression, he thought


    that she was worried about the baby andforted her. “The results will be out soon. With infants,


    we’re mostly worried about triggering their allergies unknowingly. She should be fine with enough


    parental supervision.”


    Mnie forced a smile. “Thank you, doctor.”


    The doctor nced at Merry and then at Eugene. He teased, “You’re more familiar with multi–drug


    allergies than I am. You can tell your friend about your experience.”


    Eugene was his high school ssmate. When he suddenly came to ask for a checkup that day, the


    doctor was shocked. He thought that Eugene had gotten married at some point.


    His instincts and experience also told him that Merry’s features resembled Eugene’s to some extent.


    That was why he joked about Merry being Eugene’s daughter.


    However, looking at the situation now, it was hard for him to say with certainty either way.


    ke Lefton had been a pediatrician for so many years and had seen many things. Still smiling, he


    handed Mnie a business card. “I’m based here in Jepton. You can consult me anytime if you need


    any help with little Merry.”


    With that, he left.


    Mnie instinctively avoided Eugene’s gaze, turning away with Merry in her arms. “Since the checkup


    is over, I’ve got other things to do.”


    “I heard that Eason Harmon was looking for you earlier,” Eugene said suddenly. Eason was Timothy’s


    oldest brother’s name. “That man will do anything to get what he wants. You’d better tell me


    immediately when you meet him.”


    Mnie stopped in her tracks. “I don’t think we’ll meet again.”


    After all, she was about to leave Jepton.


    It was ironic. She had lived here for most of her life, but now she could not stay any longer.


    Mnie was about to leave when a teasing drawl from behind stopped her. “If the nurse hadn’t told me


    that you were here, I wouldn’t have believed it. Don’t you hate children? Why did youe to the


    pediatrics department?”


    Simon’s face was filled with carefree mockery as usual. He looked at Eugene. “Eason’s here with your


    dad. Oh, and that William guy is with them too. Man, they look like a jury waiting to persecute you.”


    Eugene narrowed his eyes. The gentle aura around him instantly turned cold. He gave Mnie a long


    look and said in an emotionless tone, “Be careful on your way back.”

    Mnie blinked, and Eugene was gone, striding quickly away. She was about to leave with Merry as


    well when she heard Simon’s voice.


    “Hey, this mess started at least partly because of you. And you’re leaving just like that? I was right. You


    really are ruthless.” Simon sneered at Mnie.


    Yvonne frowned. “Please get your facts straight. It was Timothy who stabbed Eugene, not Mnie, She


    was also a victim of his crazy ways. Cut the victim–ming crap.

    “Mnie was willing to visit Eugene because she’s kind, not because she owed him anything”


    Yvonne was very protective of Mnie. She was about to pull Mnie away, but Simon called out to


    her as they passed him by.


    Even though his expression was still casual, there was a hint of seriousness in his eyes. “Do you know


    what the Harmons‘ cooperation means to the LeapCo branchpany? Eugene is burning a lot of


    bridges right now.


    “This was his perfect chance to further hispany’s interests. You should understand that better than


    me,” Simon said quietly.


    When Eugene returned to his ward, he saw a circle of people sitting inside. All of them were stone-


    faced


    except for William.


    Everyone said that Eugene resembled Ste, while William was the spitting image of Cedric. He even


    had the same fake attitude.
