Inside the main house, Nash heard the noise. He had just opened the door when Kai dashed in like the wind, disappearing into the darkness. Nash called out loudly, “Mr. Sullivan, where are you going? It’s so dark at night–be careful not to fall into a ditch!”

But Kai didn’t look back and kept running into the night.

The next morning, the volunteer team gathered.

When Oriana arrived, she overheard Lottie beaming with pride, a sweet smile lighting up her face. “Kai’s tough on the outside but soft inside. Even though he refused to make me the female lead in the promo video, he still trusts my medical skills. Last night, he hurt his tailbone and had me treat it.”

Oriana’s ears perked up in surprise.

Kai got injured?

Last night, when she left, he was still jumping around happily.

“All she’s got going for her is a decent look and some book smarts; beyond that, she’s worthless.” Lottie made it loud on purpose.

Someone nearby cautioned her, “Lottie, Dr. Sterling’s husband is impressive. Don’t be like that.”

“Yeah, she’s still the deputy director’s favorite,” another added.

Lottie rolled her eyes, clearly unconcerned. “Please, why would I be afraid of her? If she’s got the guts, she can use her connections to kick me out.”

As she spoke, Lottie awkwardly twisted her not–so–flexible body and glanced toward Oriana several times. “I just like seeing people hate me, but I can’t do anything about it. Like they think marrying a rich guy means the whole world revolves around them.”

Everyone around was taken aback. No one expected Lottie to be this blunt, especially since Oriana hadn’t even done anything.

Several colleagues from Lottie’s department quickly pulled her aside, whispering, “Lottie, come on, maybe say less, okay?”

Lottie snorted dismissively, totally indifferent.

As she claimed, she clearly wasn’t intimidated by Oriana’s so–called authority.

Faced with Lottie’s venomous attitude, Oriana just brushed it off as sour grapes for not being chosen as the promo’s female lead.

They belonged to different departments and barely crossed paths, so she only knew of Lottie but rarely saw her.

Just then, several directors came over to lead and assign tasks. In front of her department head, Lottie naturally dared not cause trouble and obediently fell silent.

Chuck nodded to his team members and suddenly remembered, “Looks like we’re missing someone from neurology.”

Audrey Bishop, head of internal medicine, immediately named Lottie. “Let Lottie go. She can handle it.”

She patted Lottie’s shoulder half–jokingly, “Don’t embarrass our department now.”

Lottie beamed confidently. “Don’t worry, Director Bishop. I’ll make you proud!”

As she said that, she glanced at Oriana again.

“Fine!”

Oriana frowned slightly, unwilling to acknowledge Lottie’s deliberate provocation.

The volunteers split into three teams, heading east, south, and west to visit villagers‘ homes around Sunrise Village.

Chuck called Oriana over to discuss Professor Cormac’s latest paper. He had some ideas to help their research.

Watching Oriana practically glued to Chuck, Lottie curled her lips and sneered, “I was wondering where this suddenly capable intern came from–straight from Seabar, huh? Guess it’s all about the connections.”

No one around dared to join in Lottie’s sarcasm. Feeling ignored, Lottie pulled out her phone and opened a chat.

She messaged Luna. “Damn! I finally see how scheming and ruthless Oriana really is. You’re so kind and pure; it’s no wonder you can’t beat her.”

Luna replied, “Lottic? What’s wrong? How did you two end up together?”

Lottie gave a brief rundown of the volunteer work and Kai’s promo shoot. “Kai really lost his mind, falling for that bitch. He doesn’t think Oriana’s genuinely kind and pure, does he?”

Luna replied regretfully, “It’s my fault. If I hadn’t messed up, they wouldn’t be so disappointed

in me.”

Lottie snapped back, “What did you do wrong? Ambition’s nothing to be ashamed of! Everyone’s climbing up by their own skill. Besides, Oriana only managed to get those great papers because of her husband and Mr. Harris. Everyone’s just copying. Why the hell does it have to be ranked like that?”
