Wendy only glanced briefly before heading upstairs, while Chase didn’t rush to leave.

Louis took some items from a few of the guests and placed them on the floor, then walked over to Chase and whispered, “They’re all people who have worked with Quinn Group One of them has been maintaining medical equipment for Cloud Hospital for over five years.”

Louis pointed to one of the men. That was a bit of a surprise.

All the visitors were clearly connected to Quinn Group, but it was unexpected to have a company that handled Cloud Hospital’s equipment maintenance. Chase looked over at the man.

The man seemed quite sharp. As soon as he saw Chase, he immediately approached with a big smile. “You must be Dr. Goodman, right? I’m Ron Blanco. Our company is responsible for maintaining all the medical equipment at Cloud Hospital. I tried to catch you at the hospital last time, but you had already finished for the day.”

The man didn’t look very old and seemed very skilled at handling people. Chase wasn’t the best at dealing with business affairs, so he simply smiled in response to Ron’s enthusiasm. “We haven’t signed next year’s contract yet. I just wanted to find a time to personally visit you, Dr. Goodman.”

Chase glanced at Mandy. Mandy was sitting on the couch, talking to one of the ladies, and they appeared to be having a pleasant conversation. Only then did Chase turn his attention back to Ron.

“Since it’s the holiday season, we’re not discussing business. As for next year’s contract, let‘ the holidays. This isn’t the right place for work matters.”

Ron froze for a second, then quickly agreed, “Yes, Dr. Goodman, of course. Let’s leave it at that. I see you have other guests, so I’ll leave now.”

Louis escorted him out, then returned. Chase asked, “I stepped out for just a moment, and there are so many people here now? What’s going on? Who are those two women?”

“They’re people who used to work with Quinn Group, but have since retired. I suppose you could call them your predecessors. Given their status, it wouldn’t be appropriate for them to visit Ms. Quinn directly, so they decided to come and chat with Madam Mandy instead. Now that Ms. Quinn has gone upstairs, you can go rest as well.”

Wendy was on the phone with Stella.

Originally, Stella was supposed to come back, but as soon as she heard that Chase would be at the house for the holidays, she refused to come back. Wendy usually indulged Stella’s temper, but this time, she had to consider Chase’s feelings.

She had told Stella before the holidays, either get on a plane if she wanted to come back, since the ticket was already bought and personally delivered by her assistant. If Stella really didn’t want to come back, she could spend Christmas abroad. But Stella didn’t return after all.

Wendy could be tough on her, but in the end, Stella was her little sister, and she couldn’t just ignore her during the holidays.

She turned her chair around and spoke to Stella, “I’ve already told you, Chase is your brother–in–law. You can’t keep acting this way. There’s no future between Henry and me. Henry’s married with kids. Do you really not care about how Mom feels?
