After raining for a night, the air was refreshing and crisp with a hint of earthy fragrance. The entire city was calm and tranquil. But the tranquility of the city would soon be broken by earth-shattering news.
[HT real estate agency would exit from the city today!]
This headline was like a firestorm that swept through the city. News spread like wildfire and soon everyone knew about this event. The originally calm city became riled by this news. Some were shocked, some were in disbelief while others could not understand…
Everyone from all walks of life started talking about this. All the news channels were covering this topic. What happened to HT real estate agency?
Within a short period of a few months, it was able to rise to compete with the leading real estate companies of the city. It was not a stretch to say that it was a rising star but now in just over a month, it fell like a meteorite, crashing spectacularly onto the earth.
What was the story behind all these?
The entire city was curious and wanted to find out the reasons. But when some people went to the HT real estate agency building, they found out that the main entrances had been locked and confirmed that they were exiting the city.
During the storm, it was a different scene at the LJ Hospital. After leaving Plum Bar last night, Jack did not return to the TM villa but he went directly to LJ Hospital.
Daisy had prepared some porridge and delivered it early in the morning. Jack made sure each spoonful of porridge was cool enough before feeding it to Amber. He cared for Amber tenderly and lovingly.
“I’m full and can’t eat anymore.” Amber wiped some porridge from the corner of her mouth and said coyly, “I’ve enough, I can’t eat another bite!”
“Have some more, you’ve lost so much weight. You must eat some more.” Jack continued to spoon-feed Amber and said lovingly, “Come honey, be a good girl and be my chubby girl.”
Daisy, Mr. Ward, and Brent exchanged looks awkwardly. Who could imagine the son of the head of the Hughes family and a potential heir could speak so childishly? They were sure that if any outsiders were to see this, their jaws would drop wide open in disbelief and break out in goosebumps!
“No, I don’t want to be chubby, I won’t look good.” Amber pouted. Although she was unwilling to, she still obediently opened her mouth to eat the porridge served by Jack.
Jack smiled tenderly, “I love you regardless of whether you are skinny or chubby.”
Brent couldn’t bear with this public display of affection and said sheepishly, “Young Master, what you’re saying is really childish and not befitting of a man of your stature. Everyone will be shocked if this leaked out.”
Then, smack!
Daisy slapped firmly onto Brent’s shoulders and reproached, “What do you know? No matter how cold a person is, he will meet a person who could warm him up. What’s wrong with what Youg Master said? He loves Amber and is willing to lower his dignity for her. This is love! A brute like you would not understand!”
“What’s wrong with me?” Brent was puzzled.
Daisy rolled her eyes and became upset as she stormed out of the patient’s room.
Brent was stunned and puzzled as he remarked, “Why did she suddenly get upset?”
Jack and Amber looked at each other awkwardly. It was Mr. Ward who walked in front of Brent, smiled awkwardly, and tapped on his shoulders, “Brent, do you know why you’ve been single for decades and are still single?”
“Because I had been in battles and dedicated my life to the honor of a mercenary. I missed out on my golden age of being in a relationship and that’s why I’m single now.” Brent said as a matter of fact.
