- Chapter 53: We Thought He’d Never Marry
- Sonya smiled, seeing Mr. Reynolds pouting.
- “I’m fine,” he mumbled.
- “Dad, you can ignore me, but not my wife!” Henry said cheekily.
- Mr. Reynolds was about to explode.
- “Dad,
- let’s skip the hospital. I’ll give you a massage,” Sonya said softly. Mr. Reynolds couldn’t refuse Sonya, extending his arm for her to take his blood pressure. It was high, but not dangerously so.
- Sonya began massaging his hand, from palm to fingertips, asking about his daily routine, just like she would a patient.
- Mr. Reynolds, somewhat afraid of doctors, sat up straight, assuring her he hadn’t been drinking or eating rich foods lately.
- “No?” Linda scoffed.“Who’s been ordering takeout at the office–lobster, skewers, pork belly–and still smoking and drinking, and not exercising?”
- “I… I didn’t.”
- “I installed cameras in your office. You can’t hide it from me.”
- Mr. Reynolds remained stubborn, but silent.

- After the massage, Sonya checked his blood pressure again; it was much lower.
- “Quit smoking and drinking, exercise more–these are necessary. Your diet needs to be light, with a balance of meat and vegetables,” Sonya adopted her doctor’s demeanor, furrowing her brow.“At your age, high blood pressure is dangerous; it can lead to other conditions. You must take this seriously.”
- “Yes, doctor. I’ll listen to you.‘
- ་་
- “Good. Start with quitting smoking and drinking.”
- “Huh?”
- “No?”
- “O–okay.”
- “Excellent. I’ll create a plan for you, a gradual approach.”
- “Can I have one drink tonight? As a farewell?”
- Sonya shook her head.“No.”
- She instinctively reached for her notepad, realizing she wasn’t at the hospital. Gestational hypertension was extremely dangerous; she’d projected that risk onto Mr. Reynolds, apparently scaring him.
- “Ahem, I’ll monitor you.”
- Linda nudged her son.“Finally, someone your father fears.”
- At dinner, Sonya prepared a light meal for Mr. Reynolds. Under her watchful eye, he ate slowly. He considered taking some braised pork, but Sonya’s slight cough stopped him.

- “Once your blood pressure is normal, you can have your favorite foods occasionally,” Sonya said, giving him more vegetables.
- Mr. Reynolds silently ate.
- “Good. I’ll take a walk with you
- later.”
- “A walk?” Mr. Reynolds was shocked.
- “Yes. Since you’re busy and don’t exercise, let’s start with morning and evening walks, then gradually increase the intensity. When was your last full physical?”
- “Not that long ago.”
- “Almost three years ago,” Linda revealed. “Whenever it’s time for a checkup, he always makes
- excuses.”
- Mr. Reynolds glared at Linda and looked down.
- “Schedule a checkup.”
- “I’m very busy.”
- “How about Saturday?”
- “I have a meeting on Saturday…”
- “I’ll handle it,” Henry said cheerfully.
- Mr. Reynolds glared at Henry, conceding defeat.
- “Fine. I’ll with you.”
- go
- After dinner, Sonya stopped Mr. Reynolds from escaping upstairs, inviting him for a walk. Henry wanted to join, but Mr. Reynolds said he wouldn’t go if he did.
- Henry scoffed.“If I wasn’t accompanying my The Reynolds estate was perfect for a walk.
- wife, I wouldn’t go.”
- Sonya was initially hesitant, but seeing Mr. Reynolds’s nervousness, she relaxed. “When did you take over the family business?” Sonya asked, starting a conversation. Mr. Reynolds recalled his youth.“I’d just graduated college. I wanted to study abroad, but Grandpa Sullivan fell ill, so I had to join the company.”
- “Wasn’t there Grandpa Jason Reynolds, your older brother?”
- “Henry didn’t explain clearly. My uncle’s son is Jason Reynolds; Reynolds was founded by my father.”
- Sonya hadn’t understood. She thought Grandma Reynolds had two sons–Henry’s uncle and father–but they were cousins.
- af
- “Shortly after Grandpa Sullivan passed away, I had to take over. Many problems surfaced, pushing Reynolds to the brink of collapse.”
- “That must have been difficult.”
- Mr. Reynolds nodded. “It was incredibly hard. Reynolds almost went bankrupt. The turning point was one project.”
- Mr. Reynolds recounted the crisis, highlighting his foresight, decisiveness, and leadership in saving Reynolds.
