Ralph pointed at Raine and scolded, “Tyrone’s situation isn’t your concern. Just meet your blind date tomorrow like I told you.”

Raine was so scared she hid behind Brad and didn’t dare to speak again.

After the elders left, Brad and Raine stood beside Tyrone’s hospital bed.

Tyrone lay unconscious, pale as paper. Both of them sighed at the same time.

Raine muttered, “Brad, I don’t get it. When Aella was around, he didn’t appreciate her. Now that she’s gone, he acts like his life is over.”

Brad glanced sideways at her. “That’s because Aella spoiled him. Tyrone knew she loved him since they were kids. He thought she’d never leave him, so he kept pushing it.”

Raine nodded quickly. “You’re right. Men shouldn’t be spoiled. The more you spoil them, the worse they get.”

Brad was rendered speechless.

He just stared at her for a few seconds. Then he sighed, pushed her away gently, and said, “You’re no help here. Go home.”

But Raine refused to leave. She plopped herself down on the couch and started playing games.

Brad went out to take a call. When he came back, Raine had fallen asleep on the couch.

He looked at her for a moment, then at Tyrone lying motionless in bed.

Quietly, he pulled the blanket off Tyrone and draped it over Raine.

Then he grabbed a white sheet from the cabinet and covered Tyrone with that instead.

Brad crouched beside Raine, poking her cheek. “You never spoiled me. How do you know I’d turn out the same?”

He pinched her nose gently and smiled. “You’re just like Tyrone. A little troublemaker.”

Brad went on to tap her lips with his finger. “You silly thing, you’ll end up like him one day- heartbroken and alone.”

Without thinking, Brad held her chin and kissed her lightly.

The kiss was soft and quick, but when he pulled back, he couldn’t help but lick his lips, wanting

more.

Just as he leaned in for a second kiss, a low voice came from behind him–cold, tired, and sharp. “What do you think you’re doing?”

Brad froze. A chill ran down his back.

He turned around. Tyrone was awake, staring at him with narrowed eyes.

Brad cleared his throat, keeping a straight face. “Raine snores in her sleep. I was just … checking.”

Tyrone closed his eyes again, clearly disgusted.

Raine woke up to the sound of movement. When she saw the white sheet covering Tyrone on the hospital bed, she froze for a second–then burst into tears. “Waaaah!”

Brad jumped in shock. “What the heck–what happened?!”

Before he could react, Raine threw herself over the bed, crying so hard her words came out broken.

“Tyrone! My only brother!” She sobbed.

“Winter Group still needs you to make money! What are we supposed to do now that you have left us?”

She hiccupped between tears. “Aella doesn’t want you, but you still have us! How could you just drop dead like that?”

Her crying filled the whole room. “Boohoohoo!”

Raine’s dramatic outburst left both men in the hospital room completely stunned.

Tyrone had just started to lift his arm to comfort her when she suddenly punched him in the stomach, wailing, “You never told me your bank password!”

Tyrone was in such pain that he almost passed out on the spot.

Brad jumped in and yelled, “Good grief, woman, are you trying to kill him?!”

He quickly pulled Raine off Tyrone, tore the white sheet away, and helped Tyrone sit up.

Raine’s sobs finally slowed. She opened her eyes and saw Tyrone was alive and breathing. “Wait.

You’re not dead?”

Tyrone held his stomach and glared darkly. “You should get your head checked.”

Raine puckered her lips. “Brad, he just called me stupid.”

Brad

gave Tyrone a helpless look. “She’s just worried about you. Why are you scolding her?”

Tyrone shot back, “Wasn’t it you who called her that?”

Raine was at a loss for words.

Brad, feeling guilty, coaxed and tricked Raine out of the room. He told her to head home, check what’s going on there, and bring back some grits that gentle for Tyrone’s stomach.

Once she left, Brad closed the door, pulled a chair over, and sat beside Tyrone’s bed.

He advised in a calm, steady tone, “If you’ve decided to let go, then learn to accept it. You’re carrying an empire on your shoulders. Your life isn’t just your own.”

Tyrone lay there, his blank eyes fixed on the cold white ceiling.

His face tightened as though some painful memory clawed its way back to him. Tyrone closed his eyes in agony.

Brad noticed his gloomy expression and grew worried. “You don’t look good. I’ll get the doctor.”

He hurried out. When the room grew quiet again, Tyrone slowly opened his

eyes.

He reached for his phone and sent out a short message. Minutes later, Noel walked in. “Mr. Winter.”

Tyrone forced himself upright, his face pale but his tone steady.

“Starting tomorrow,” he said, “you don’t need to go back to the company.”

“What?” Noel froze, eyes wide.

Wait–did he just get fired because he accidentally let something slip about his boss’s medical condition?
