Quentin and Nancy were so close that they could almost touch each other.Her heart pounded wildly, and her cheeks flushed bright red.Seeing her like that, Quentin tilted his head to look at her and bluntly asked, "So, are you really a virgin?"There was a playful glint in his eyes, yet beneath it lurked something darker.Nancy met his gaze and nodded shyly. "Yes."Quentin suddenly burst out laughing.Nancy felt both nervous and uncertain when she saw him laughing like that.A moment later, the smile vanished from his face. He looked at her and asked, "Since you're still a virgin, why don't we set a date?"His blunt words made Nancy's face turn even redder. She played innocent and asked, "A date? What exactly do you want to do on that date, Mr. Henderson?"Seeing her act so clueless sparked a flash of disgust in Quentin's mind, but he kept it carefully hidden.Quentin kept smiling, holding his pose as he edged closer. Just as his lips neared her cheek, he paused.With a slow

Emma caught on to Christian's unspoken meaning and gently persuaded him, "Mr. Lane, if you really care about Mrs. Lane, you should call her yourself."Christian turned his face away. His voice dropped to a somber tone as he replied, "I don't care about her, but she's still Yvonne's mother. I wouldn't want anything to happen to her."Emma sighed deeply. "Mr. Lane, Mrs. Lane is a good person. You shouldn't let her slip away. As you said, she's Ms. Yvonne's mother. Only a mother can truly care for her child. Please don't regret it, or so will Ms. Yvonne."Christian remained silent for a while. He thought about how they had already signed the divorce papers and were only about 20 days away from receiving their official divorce certificate. Finally, he spoke up. "There are no feelings between us."Emma quickly responded, "But you still have Ms. Yvonne."Christian went quiet again. After a moment, he took the food container from Emma's hands and said, "I'll feed Yvonne."When he entere

Willow had said that she would be there in about an hour, so Talia decided to pass the time with a game.At the mention of it, Lucas' eyes lit up, and he became interested. "Sure. I'm unbeatable when it comes to Five-in-a-Row. Don't cry if you lose, Talia."Talia smiled faintly. "I won't."She was actually quite good at Five-in-a-Row, but it had been many years since she last played this game.With Talia bringing up a game, Quentin no longer paid attention to Lucas.Soon enough, Lucas had the game board set up. Talia took the white pieces, and Lucas took the black ones.They played three rounds, and Talia lost every time. Even though she lost, it wasn't an easy win for Lucas.When the fourth round started, Quentin quietly got up from the chair beside the bed and moved to sit next to Talia.Although Five-in-a-Row was just a simple game, it still required some thinking, and it wasn't as easy as it seemed.At first, Talia and Lucas were evenly matched. But as the game progressed,

Talia looked at Quentin helplessly. "Quentin, you…"He tried to embrace her, but as he got closer, Talia suddenly thought of him kissing Nancy.A wave of resistance surged inside her. She shoved him away and got off the bed.Standing barefoot on the floor, she looked at him and said, "Forget about last night. I never agreed to the role you've imagined for yourself."After saying that, she put on her shoes and took Willow's hand. "Willow, let's go."Willow wasn't sure what had happened, but she followed Talia's lead.As they were heading out of the ward, Lucas suddenly called out, "Talia, have you misunderstood Quentin? If there's a misunderstanding, you should talk to him. I know his character well. He really only loves you."Talia stopped in her tracks when she heard that. She paused for a moment, then turned back to look at Lucas and said, "Mr. Jensen, thank you for coming today. I'm happy you were here. And, of course, I appreciate Mr. Henderson being here too. However, there

When Christian noticed that Talia was no longer refusing his coat, he slowly withdrew his hand from her shoulder. At the same time, he replied, "I will."Talia looked at him and asked, "What do you want to talk about?"He lowered his gaze to Talia's face and asked, "Are you feeling better?"She didn't want to answer him. She impatiently said, "Get to the point."Christian paused for a moment. When he spoke again, his voice was tinged with apology. "I was too harsh that day. Don't take it to heart."Talia didn't even know which day he was referring to, nor did she care. To her, it didn't matter anymore.With a shrug, she replied indifferently, "It's fine. I'm used to it."Noticing that she didn't seem bothered at all, Christian continued explaining, "I didn't know you had a fever that day. That's why I—"Before he could finish speaking, Talia interrupted, "Okay, I get it."Her nonchalance tugged at Christian's heart. Unable to hold back, he suggested, "Why don't you stay in Yvo
