    Chapter 1795


    Bertha shook her head. “I can’t just rely on caregivers. Marlinie is my best friend. She’s like family to


    me. I can’t leave her alone here.”


    Thaddeus huffed in annoyance. “All these years, you’ve always cared more for Marlinie than for me! If


    it weren’t for her, would you be in danger today?”


    Bertha frowned in displeasure. “Here you go again! Neither of us got hurt, and besides, do you think


    Marlinie did it on purpose?”


    “I don’t care if she did it on purpose or not; I just don’t feel secure when you’re with her!”


    “That’s your problem, not mine. I’m not leaving until Marlinie is discharged!”


    After seeing the stubborn look on his wife’s face, Thaddeus could only sigh in resignation. “Alright,


    alright! You stay here with her; I’ll have someone keep an eye on you. Whenever I can, I’lle over to


    keep you bothpany. Is that okay?”


    Once her husband agreed, Bertha softened. “You… you’d better note! You’re always tactless. You


    never consider Marlinie’s feelings.”


    “I’ll keep quiet then. Isn’t that enough?”


    “Really, there’s no need. Focus on your own things. Sophia needs you too.”


    Thaddeus looked troubled. “Don’t remind me! That girl is so stubborn! I told her to let go of Marcus, and


    we had a huge argument!”


    Bertha was stunned. “What? You… you really said that to her?”


    Thaddeus nodded. “Bertha, I’ve taken everything you said to me seriously. I’ve been spoiling that girl


    too much over the years! I think Marcus loves his real wife the same way I love you. He’ll never be able


    to develop feelings for another woman, so holding on to him is pointless. Sophia will never obtain real


    love from him.”


    Bertha was touched that her husband finally understood. “As long as you understand, we can slowly


    persuade Sophia.”


    Upon hearing his wife’s soft tone, Thaddeus gazed deeply at her. “Bertha, I’ve understood everything.


    Can you forgive me ande home with me?”


    Bertha blushed slightly. “Uh… didn’t I say that I have to stay in the hospital to take care of Marlinie?”


    “I know! I mean, after your best friend is discharged, would you be willing toe home with me?”


    Bertha went silent for a moment, then nodded.


    With their disagreement resolved, both of them felt much better. They left the staircase and headed


    back to Marlinie’s room.


    As they passed the elevator, they saw Balfour waiting.


    Thaddeus’ gaze sharpened as he stared at Balfour.


    Perhaps feeling the hostile gaze, Balfour turned to look at him.


    Their gazes met, and the air became fraught with tension.


    Balfour had just visited his father and was about to leave when he ran into Thaddeus.

    DING!


    The elevator doors opened. Balfour retracted his gaze coldly and stepped inside.


    Bertha noticed her husband’s strange expression and asked, “What’s wrong? Who was that young


    man? Do you know him?”


    Thaddeus came back to his senses. “That’s the eldest son of the Howard family. For some reason, he’s


    been opposing me in business these past few years.”


    The eldest son of the Howard family? That would be…


    Bertha’s eyes widened in realization. “Thaddeus, find out why the eldest son of the Howard family is


    here in the hospital!”
