Clara didn't know a piece of her hair had been plucked. She drove with Miles to the hospital to see her sister. "Auntie, our school is hosting a family event in a couple of days. Could you come?" On the way, Miles leaned forward from the backseat, asking her cautiously. He didn't want his dad to accompany him. His dad always said he didn't study well and only participated in such useless events, wasting each other's time. But, it really wasn't him who volunteered to participate... Clara saw her nephew's terrified expression through the rearview mirror, and her heart ached. She smiled. "Of course I'll go. Auntie will definitely be there on time." Hearing this, Miles finally smiled. "Okay!" Half an hour later, at the hospital. Clara asked Miles to go up first while she went to the cafeteria to buy dinner. On the way, her phone vibrated a few more times. It was still messages from Julian. This was probably the most active he had been in texting her throughout their three years together. Clara felt a mix of bitterness and mockery. But she still took out her phone to take a look. She was afraid he might think she was missing and call the police. Julian: [Clara, where did you go?] [I'll come pick you up later.] [?] [Reply when you see this.] [Clara?] [...] Clara briefly skimmed through them and replied: [I'm keeping my sister company. I haven't been looking at my phone much.] [By the way, I won't be coming back for the next few days.] After hitting send, the chat window immediately showed "typing..." Clara tightened her grip on the phone. After a good while, the man replied: [Take care of your rest. Don't worry about your sister; I've already arranged for doctors.] [Also, about your nephew Miles's surgery, I've reminded the doctor and booked a time. Just go for the surgery when the time comes.] Clara's eyes flickered. She hadn't expected him to remember Miles's surgery... Clara: [Thank you.] [I'm going to buy dinner now.] This effectively ended the topic. She didn't want to get involved with him any further. Julian remained silent for a moment: [Okay, eat more. You've lost a lot of weight recently.] Clara glanced at it and then looked away, but her eyes still grew hot. It wasn't out of being touched, but just... a terrible feeling. She put her phone away, bought dinner at the cafeteria, and returned, only to see two caregivers in Rosalie Vance's room. She froze, sluggishly placed the dinner on the table, and asked the two, "You are..." One of the caregivers, who was massaging Rosalie's ankle, smiled upon hearing this and explained, "We were sent by Mr. Lowell to take care of the patient. I am the massage therapist, and the other is a nutritionist in charge of the patient's daily meals." Sent by Julian... Clara pursed her lips. Rosalie sat up slightly, speaking somewhat apologetically. "I didn't expect Julian to be so thoughtful. Actually, there's no need for this, but when I asked them to leave, they wouldn't listen..." "I think Julian just doesn't want you to get tired. He is quite good to you." Clara lowered her eyes, not knowing what to say. This man really knew how to please a woman. To be honest, these two caregivers were indeed exactly what she needed. But... she really wasn't the naive girl from back then anymore. She couldn't afford to love him. Seeing her silent, Miles ran over, hugged her waist, and softly called out, "Auntie, are you angry..." Clara snapped back to reality and patted his head. "Auntie isn't angry." Then she turned to the two caregivers and said, "Then from now on, I'll have to rely on you to help take care of my sister. Also, when I don't have time, I'll trouble you to pick up Miles from school." "No problem, Ms. Vance, rest assured." Clara smiled and nodded. As she lowered her eyes, she instantly concealed all her emotions. She thought to herself, she would consider all this as something Julian owed her. Outside the door, Zane Sutton, who had been secretly eavesdropping, heard how well Julian treated Clara, even hiring two caregivers. How much money must this cost a month! He clicked his tongue twice and took out The Silver Eternity Band he had found rummaging through the house. After weighing the pros and cons, he decided not to tell Dominic just yet! He hadn't finished enjoying the benefits of the Lowell family! He would wait until the day Clara and the Lowell family were done for, then he would take the ring to find Dominic! ... Under the same night sky. At the branch office of Jarrett Global. After Dominic took Parker home, he came to the company. Right now, his phone was on the desk, displaying a face identical to Clara's. The seventeen-year-old girl, with a radiant smile, her back to the ocean, wearing a beach dress, was flashing a peace sign at the camera, as bright as a little sun. He propped his chin with his long fingers, looking at the screen, as quiet as a cold statue. The pale, cold light shone on his handsome face, making him look abstinent and captivating. Just then, the phone suddenly vibrated. His dark eyes flickered. He instinctively reached to check his phone. Upon seeing the name on the screen, his gaze darkened.
