- “And then there’s your black belt in boxing. Those young men see you and run like mice from a cat, scared that you might take them down in one move.
- Think about this–Aaron is older, more emotionally stable, capable, good–looking, and kind. He’s a student of our dad’s; if you manage to marry him, wouldn’t that make your life a lot easier?”
- Diana rolled her eyes and replied, “Tim, I’m looking for a husband, not a father figure.”
- A Few Days Later, Ellie went to Rondie Private Hospital. “Let me show you around the departments and introduce you to the staff, Mark said from his office.
- He was dressed in tailored slacks and a shirt, topped with a white coat, as he guided Ellie around. After leaving the nursing department, he led Ellie toward the finance department.
- Mark said, “There are four deputy directors; my junior, Darren, oversees medical insurance and disputes while also managing public relations. Yara, a returnee PhD, currently manages both the inpatient department and the nursing department.”
- “My senior was recruited from Yorksure and is currently in charge of medical technology and emergency services,” Mark explained.
- He added, “Ellie, you’re a partner here, so it makes sense for you to oversee administration, but I hear from Diana that you’ve adopted two children. If that drains your energy, I can handle things for now.”
- “Thank you, Mark, Ellie replied, sincerely grateful. “I don’t have management experience, so I wish to start from the outpatient services.”
- Jason had provided her with some money, allowing her to have one–third stake in Mark’s private hospital. However, she knew very well that although Jason was influential, it was unrealistic to expect him to part with 100 million outright.
- The York family was the wealthiest in Lunaville, and that sum was actually given by Whitney. Deep down, she understood/ that Mark had no shortage of funds.
- The reason Mark initially proposed the investment was simply out of care for her struggling to navigate city life alongside Aaron; he wanted to lend her a hand.
- Ellie inquired, “Mark, since these three will be treating patients and managing over two departments each, won’t the workload be too overwhelming for them?”
- Mark responded, “Tve assigned each of them three assistants with salaries three times that of their previous positions, plus year–end bonuses. True, the workload is considerable, but the rewards they get here are equally substantial.”
- As they continued walking and talking, they arrived at the finance department. Upon seeing Mark and Ellie arrive, the head of the finance department rushed to greet them with the staff in tow. The moment Ellie saw Yvette, her expression darkened instantly.
- She remembered that Yvette had studied accounting and previously worked at a relative’s small firm. Ellie was shocked to learn that Yvette had transferred to this hospital
- Yvette brightened at the sight of Ellie, approaching her with the warmth of an old friend. “Ellie, it’s been ages”
- In front of the crowd, Ellie offered a curt nod in response. “Let’s head over to the inpatient department, Mark suggested as heted Ellie away from the finance department. Suddenly, the medical team erupted in chatter.
- “Yvette, is that woman our hospital’s new doctor!”
- “Yvette, is she possibly Mark’s girlfriend?”
- Chapter 521
- As Ellie stepped out of the elevator, a huge flat–screen television displayed news of Alex being released from prison. The footage showed Alex emerging from the prison gates while his parents stood outside waiting.
- Clad in black slacks and a white shirt, his tall stature remained upright and confident. The hem of his shirt hung untucked, and the top button was casually undone, with hair falling over his eyes, reminiscent of his youthful days.
- In the footage, his parents were in tears, while he wore a grin as he stepped forward to embrace them. Judging by his lip movements, he seemed to say, “Mom, Dad, I’m out.”

- That evening, at Warren Manor, Nancy reminded her son, “Wait moment, Alex. You should ward off bad luck before entering the house. Alex stopped in his tracks.
- He stared at the salt Nancy had prepared, his brow twitching. This wasn’t about clearing bad luck–this superstition felt more like a test of his patience.
- Taking in the beautiful silk dress worn by his mom, Alex took a deep breath, stepping into the house. After five long years, laughter finally filled the house once again.
- A striking cat ran to Alex’s side, persistently nudging his ankle. “Where did this cat come from?” Alex’s face showed a hint of annoyance.
- Evan quickly stepped forward, scooping up the cat. This is Mrs Warren’s pet that she adopted while you w named it Luck Alex fell silent.
- onc. We
- His parents exchanged worried glances. After their son’s ordeal in prison, he had returned, lacking memories of Ellie and Haley.
- To prepare for any potential issues, Alex’s parents had met with influential families, crafting a shared story and giving strong warnings. With covert help from Jason, they had spent over three months working on this.
- They had removed all ties between Alex and Ellie and Haley whether online or offline, leaving no trace behind.
- At the dinner table, Todd spoke with his son, no longer carrying the harshness of the past. “Years ago, your actions led to the downfall of the Owens family.
- “Ethan sought revenge upon his release; while you shot him, the consequences you faced and the impact on the entire Warren family were huge. The Warren Group isn’t what it used to be.
- “Even though your mom and I still own shares, actual control has shifted to other shareholders. Now that you are back, it’s important to think about how to reclaim that power.”
- Todd placed all the blame for Ethan’s shooting on Alex, and Alex accepted it without arguing, “Don’t worry, Dad. I will get control of the Warren Group back.”
- Nancy added, “During your time away, your father and I canceled your engagement to Ms. Grant.
- “I never cared for her anyway.” Alex replied easily, putting his parents‘ minds at ease,
- Life is full of regrets. As they watched their only son enjoy dinner and laughter at their side, Nancy’s eyes shimmered with. tears of happiness.
- Todd remained quiet, giving a reassuring pat on his wife’s shoulder. The couple exchanged a glance, both exhaling in relief.
- As long as their son was back, they would not hesitate to erase Elfie from his life, even if they had the chance to do it all over again.
- After dinner, Alex chatted with his parents for a little while before heading upstairs to rest. He climbed the stairs from the first floor to the second and paused in the hallway for over a mitte.
- Once inside his room, he took in the surroundings, feeling like something important was missing. Turning, he asked, “Is there something missing in my room?”
- Barry, waiting by the door, lowered his eyes sheepishly. Evan glanced at Nancy, worried.
- Chapter 523
- “When you were away, I had some personal items cleared out.” Nancy said. “If you need anything. I’ll buy it for you. Get some rest; your uncles will be here for the welcome–back party tomorrow.”
- Nancy feigned casualness while gently urging her son to bathe and head to bed.
- Five years ago, aside from keeping Ellie and Alex’s engagementng. Nancy had meticulously erased everything related to Ellie–Alex’s phone, computer accounts, and even bank transfer records.
- Even their wedding photos had been burned, leaving no trace. Not only was this room free of memories, but the entire Warren Manor and their friends‘ social circles were also cleansed of any evidence of Ellie’s existence in Alex’s life.
- Watching her son, blissfully unaware, walk into the bathroom, Nancy glanced around the room, feeling relief as she stepped outside.
- “All out.” The next morning, Alex came down the stairs holding something. All the household staff lined up, while the bodyguards formed another line.
- Nancy emerged from her room, looking disheveled in her sleepwear. As Alex dropped the object onto the floor, everyone’s gaze fell to the ground.
- Pointing at a sex doll dressed in a floral dress, Alex scowled. “Who left this ridiculous thing in my drawer?”
- Terrified, the household staff dared not look up: Evan covered his face in embarrassment. Barry’s lips twitched involuntarily as he quickly diverted his gaze.
- Nancy was taken aback. ‘Everything in Alex’s room has either been destroyed or removed–how can this still be here?”
- “Where did this come from?” Nancy demanded.
- “It was in the vault, Alex replied.
- Nancy turned to Evan, who stammered, “M–Mrs. Warren, I checked thoroughly-
- Nancy directed her gaze to Barry. “Barry, have you lost your tongue?”
- “Well, Mr. Warren, I remember now; it was I who put it there,” Barry lied, taking full responsibility.
- He continued, “It was a gift from a former collaborator. Since it was so personal, I thought it would be safer in your vault, but I forgot to mention it because you were busy.”
- Alex shot Barry a disbelieving look. “You’re weird. You just take in any gift? Do I look like someone who needs this?”
- “I apologize, Mr. Warren, Barry murmured, bowing deeply in shame.
- In disgust, Alex kicked the doll, ordering, “Get rid of it right now as far away as you can.”
- With fear on his face, Barry hurried to take it away. In front of everyone, Barry took off his jacket and wrapped the doll inside, carefully keeping it out of Alex’s view while maintaining a respectful distance.
- Two days later, Alex stepped outside. Displeased with his uninspired haircut, he decided to spend the day refreshing his look.
- Chapter 523
- By mid–afternoon, he went to a luxury celebrity salon in Jaslands
- “Sweetheart, I’ll just tidy up my hair a bit, and then we can go find Diana and your brother. Stay right here and play, don’t go beyond this door, okay?” Ellie instructed Betty.
- She pulled Betty’s freshly trimmed locks into a ponytail before allowing Betty to play in the salon.
- Ellie settled into the chair. Just as the stylist draped the cape around her, she heard the cheerful greeting of several shop attendants. “Welcome”
- Ellie turned her attention to the entrance, where Alex, looking hauntingly handsome in a sleek black outfit, had walked into
- the salon.
- Chapter 524
- Ellie sat in the salon chair, draped in a cape, and discreetly avertel her gaze. In the mirror, she spotted Alex walking by. She quickly lowered her eyes. “Shorter, please.” Ellie said in a calm toge before gently closing her eyes.
- The only sound around her was the snip of the scissors held by the stylist. As Ellie sat there, she felt an undeniable sense of peace. After five years, they had crossed paths once more, yet he did not recognize her. She felt neither joy nor sorrow.
- It seemed they should never have ended up like this, yet here they were: Everything was painfully clear, they were destined to miss each other.
- He had believed in fate, while she had doubted life itself. The past was too dark to revisit, and life was rarely perfect.
- Every adult carries certain burdens of unspoken wounds. Each person has their flaws, troubles, and unique ways of living. All she could do was raise her two children and enjoy life among her family.
- In the men’s VIP section, Alex admired his newly styled hair in the mirror. The textured perm, neatly side–parted, accentuated his rugged charm.
- Suddenly, with a soft thud, Alex glanced down to find a small, red drum lying at his feet.
- Betty was about to pick it up when the stylist stopped her. “Little one, this is a VIP area; you can’t come here. Please go back to your Mom.”
- Berty huffed in defiance as she pushed the stylist’s arm. “I want to pick it up; move out of the way.”
- “Kid, if you don’t obey, I’ll have to ask you to leave. Go to your Mom another staff member interjected, pointing toward Ellie, who was not far away.
- “I’m not afraid of you. If you don’t let me pass, I’ll have my uncle take you all away.”
- Barry, waiting at the entrance of the VIP area, frowned. Who is this little girl? She seems more brazen than Alex
- With a rhythmic drumbeat, Alex strolled leisurely out of the VIPsection, two staff members quickly apologizing and stepping aside. He crouched down to look at Betty.
- Tm Betty. That little drum belongs to me; could you return it? Betty’s chubby hand reached for the drum, almost snatching
- it away
- It was the first time Alex had encountered a child with such a sweet voice, yet her eyes sparkled with untamed spirit. He couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, shaking the drum. “Such an old–fashioned toy. Are your parents already in their
- seventies?”
- Instantly, Betty’s demeanor shifted as she pointed at Ellie from distance, glaring at Alex indignantly. “My mom is stunning you ought to see for yourself”
- Following her gaze toward Ellie, Alex’s attention momentarily fibered. Barry’s realization was nearly startling. He hadn’t noticed Ellie’s presence when he entered, and now this child claimed Ellie as her Mom
- Thus, the uncle she had mentioned must be Aaron. And her dad would be Alex. Barry struggled to cope with the shock. turning away to catch his breath.

- Till let you in on a secret. I stole this drum from my mom’s room. My brother said it might be a keepsake from our deadbeat dad”
- Upon hearing Betty’s words, Alex’s interest piqued. “You don’t have a dad?”
- Betty glanced timidly toward Ellie, her voice trembling. “Mom says Daddy did too many bad things and was struck by lightning. He turned into ashes and got buried in Aaron’s garder,
- “If my brother and I miss him, we will take care of the flowers in the garden.”
- Alex suppressed a smile, returning the drum to Betty before leaying. As he walked past Ellie, his footsteps briefly hesitated.
- Gazing at Ellie’s serene and beautiful face in the mirror, he couldn’t help but murmur, “So, you’re a little widow.”
- Upon hearing Alex’s voice, Ellie opened her eyes. Barry felt anxiety, rendered speechless. Ellie turned her head to the entrance; Alex was already stepping out through the salon’s glass door.
- Her gaze rested on Barry, momentarily tightening her heart. Nevertheless, she quickly regained her composure. Now that she had come back with her two children, she had no intention of hiding them away.
- Meeting the Warrens was inevitable. She intended to live openly with her children and had mentally prepared for it.
- After leaving the salon, Ellie took Betty to find Diana and her son At a luxury mall in the city center, Diana waved enthusiastically at Ellie near the elevator.
- “I’m buying a gift for Steven’s birthday; let’s head to the tenth floor, Diana said, each guiding a child upward.
- Reaching a high–end men’s accessories boutique, Diana said with authority, “Bring me all the new arrivals for this season”
- This one looks splendid.” Ellie remarked, holding her daughter firmly to keep her from wandering while pointing to a leather–accented men’s bracelet.
- “Diana, that one is the best,” Betty chimed, indicating a trendy black necklace.
- Ellie glanced at the necklace her daughter admired and exchanged a knowing look with Diana. This was one of Alex’s favorite accessories, especially in black.
- “How frightening Diana muttered under her breath. Ellie recognized that Diana had meant hereditary.
- Just then, Alex approached, surrounded by a throng of staff. Following Ellie’s gaze, Diana quickly embraced Oscar. concealing his face from view.
- “Don’t hide,” Alex remarked nonchalantly. He approached, surveying Ellie and Betty, then glancing at Diana and the boy in her arms.
- He addressed Diana, “My engagement with you has been dissolved; even if you have a whole brood, it has nothing to do with
- me.”
- Fuming, Diana shot up from the sofa. “I thought you’d have calmed down after a few years in prison. Clearly, I expected too much; you deserve to be a lifelong bachelor.”
- I’d rather spend fifty years in prison than be with someone as load as you. You’re not even as good as a little widow. Alex shot a glance at Ellie before striding away.
- Diana, sputtering in anger, turned to Ellie. “Ellie, did you hear him? He dares to say I’m less than a widow?
- Chapter 525
- “People rarely change their nature: try not to take it to heart, Ellie replied, observing Alex’s swaggering figure, her expression unperturbed.
