Standing next to Mr. Lowe was a woman with puffy red eyes, dressed in a crisp housekeeper’s uniform. She looked to be in her forties or fifties, but she’d clearly taken good care of herself. No wonder she’d managed to win over Mr. Lowe.
“Sir, please,” Tracysaid gently. “All I want is to stay by your side. There’s no need to make things hard for your son and daughter-in-law.”
But her words only made Mr. Lowe more stubborn. He grabbed her hand and said, “Tracy, don’t worry. You’re with me now, so I’ll take responsibility. We’re definitely getting married.”
Everyone else just stared, completely at a loss.
Lincoln looked up at the ceiling and started smacking his own forehead, over and over. Seriously, he was at his limit.
Lydia walked in, carrying her medical kit. Before she could get close, Mr. Lowe shot her a glare. “Who told you to come over? Go away. I’m perfectly fine. I don’t need a doctor.”
Lydia arched an eyebrow. “Let me just check your pulse. See how strong you are. If you need it, I’ll write you something to help build you up. You’re getting married, right? If you want to keep your new wife happy, you’d better make sure your health is up to it.”
The whole room went silent.
Lincoln’s jaw dropped. He couldn’t believe Lydia actually said that.
Both Mr. Lowe and Tracy were stunned, shocked that someone so young could be so direct.
Lydia set her kit on the table next to Mr. Lowe. He huffed, “I know my own body, thank you very much.”
He glanced at Tracy. “And Tracy knows it too.”
Tracy’s cheeks turned bright red as she lowered her head.
Everyone else just stood there, speechless. Seriously, what was happening?
Lydia shrugged. “But what if nobody else believes you? I’m a doctor. If I check your pulse and tell everyone you’re fine, they’ll stop worrying. No more fussing about doctors.”

Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
