"I'll leave the things here then, Laura."Harry left the things he brought in the store.Laura nodded.Looking at Laura in the eyes, Harry chuckled. "I'll get going and leave you to your job then."After saying goodbye to Harry, Laura walked out of the convenience store.However, as soon as Harry left, Laura remembered something.The milk powder that Harry had bought for Shannon was for pregnant women. Why would Harry buy something that was made for pregnant women?She had wanted to ask Harry, but she forgot.Shannon returned in the afternoon.The reason that she had gone back to her hometown was because an elder had fallen ill and she went back to visit the elder.Shannon's hometown was Springmount. When she came back to Empfield, she had brought some specialties from Springmount.Laura smiled and thanked Shannon. After that, she took out the things Harry left for Shannon. "Harry left these for you."Shannon lowered her head and looked at what was in the bags. There were t

"Alright, alright. I won't look at you like that. Geez." Dr. Faulkner smiled. "It's been a month now. When are you going to give me the 200 thousand dollars you promised me? You said that your husband's eldest son would find out about our deal, so you're going to have to wait a while. Now that a month has passed, it's time for you to pay up, right?"Lewis had given the 1 million dollars that Chris had given him to Helen.Helen took out her phone from her pocket. "Give me your account details. Online transactions are capped. I'm going to have to transfer the money to you in batches.""That won't be a problem." Dr. Faulkner smiled and gave Helen his bank account details.Laura was given days off before the New Year.Her employer was quite nice. Employees of other industries would still have to go to work for a few days before the bank holiday, but Laura's employer gave her a few extra days.Laura didn't waste her holiday either.On the first day, she planned on buying some gifts a

Prof. Wilson took out some expensive whiskey that he had collected and was about to pour a glass for Chris and Liam.Chris would need to drive later on, so he politely rejected the whiskey."I thought Laura had a driver's license, right?" said Liam. "She can drive after lunch."Laura didn't want to talk to Liam, but Prof. Wilson was also looking at her. That was when she said, "I do, but I'm not confident enough to drive."She had obtained her driver's license during university, but she had never driven a car after she passed her exams. One reason was because Laura didn't have a car and the other was that the roads in Empfield were very busy. Laura had planned on buying herself a car, but she wouldn't really want to drive even if she bought one."What's there to be scared about, Laura? Does your husband not trust you behind the wheel? You can just drive, he'll be there beside you," Liam said with a smile.If Laura wanted to drive, Chris wouldn't stop her. He would even accompany

At first, Laura didn't agree with Chris's decision.She felt if it was she who owned the tea, then she wouldn't have any problems giving it to Prof. Wilson as a gift, but the tea belonged to Chris. Laura didn't want to accept something so expensive.However, Chris insisted. He said that he had quite a lot and Laura had no choice but to agree.Looking at how Chris discussed tea with Prof. Wilson, Liam's face paled.Prof. Wilson's attention was focused on the Ceylon Golden Tips brought by Chris and wasn't looking at the Earl Grey that Liam had brought at all.This made Liam feel aggrieved throughout the rest of the meal.After lunch, Laura and Chris didn't want to stay and disturb Prof. Wilson and Hailey, so they were prepared to leave.Hailey packed quite a lot of pickles for Laura and Laura accepted them with joy. After saying goodbye to Prof. Wilson and Hailey, Laura and Chris walked down the stairs.Liam and Emily walked behind them.Looking at Laura and Chris walking togeth

When the lights outside the operating room turned off, Laura immediately stood up from the bench. She looked at the doors of the operating room nervously. When the doctors came out, Laura immediately walked over."Doctor, how's my husband?""He's not in a critical state anymore, but a lot of pieces of glass were inserted into different parts of his body and that included his face. We don't know if he will be scarred. That will depend on how he recovers."When Laura heard that Chris was no longer in any danger, she breathed a sigh of relief.However, what the doctor said afterwards caused her eyes to turn red.Chris's face had always been very handsome and flawless.It was he who protected Laura in the car crash and that was why so many pieces of glass splashed onto him. Such a thought made Laura's heart ache.When Chris was pushed out of the operating room, he was still unconscious. The doctor told Laura that this was normal and that she would have to at least wait until the eve
