Chapter 256
The evening progressed with laughter and an ever-growing sense of camaraderie. Sasha lit up a cigarette, offering one to Jaxon and Milly. Jaxon eagerly took one, while Milly hesitated for a moment before accepting. Meanwhile, Williams took a sip of his drink, declining the cigarette with a polite shake of his head.
"I don't smoke," Williams explained. "Never have."
Sasha blew a stream of smoke into the air, looking at Williams with a playful smirk. "You don't know what you're missing."
Jaxon, now feeling the effects of both the alcohol and the cigarette, leaned back in his chair and grinned. "So, Sasha, you seem like a fun person. Have you ever... you know, had a wild night with more than one person?"
Milly giggled, clearly feeling the buzz as well. "Jaxon! You're so naughty!"
Sasha laughed, taking another drag from her cigarette. "Oh, I've had my

Chapter 257The next morning, Milly and Jaxon got dressed and prepared to go to EMC. Milly was anxious about her absence from work, planning to lie about being unwell. Jaxon, on the other hand, was nonchalant, relying on his father's influence as a board member.As they drove to the company, Milly glanced at Jaxon. "Are you sure this is a good idea?" she asked, her voice tinged with worry.Jaxon shrugged. "Relax, Milly. No one's going to fire you. Besides, my father will handle everything."They arrived at EMC, and Jaxon kissed Milly on the cheek. "I'll go see my father. You go sign in and explain your absence.""Don't forget the money you promised me." Milly reminded him.Jaxon responded quickly: "Right, I'll get it from my dad right away. Meet me downstairs when you're done."Milly nodded, feeling a knot in her stomach. "Okay. Good luck with your dad."Jaxon smirked. "I don't need luck.

Jaxon shouted, stepping closer. "She's sick, and you have no right to question her whereabouts because she took leave from me."James looked confused and surprised, but before Milly could intervene and calm Jaxon down, Jaxon grabbed James by the shirt and pulled him close.James, clearly annoyed, said firmly, "Let go of me, Jaxon. You have no idea what you're talking about."Jaxon sneered, his grip tightening, "What are you gonna do about it, huh?"Milly, using a soft tone, pleaded, "Jaxon, sweetie, please calm down. Everything's sorted out now. James has been understanding."Ignoring her, Jaxon leaned in closer to James and hissed, "Listen up, you're still on my list of people I need to teach a lesson. Don't you forget that."James looked directly into Jaxon's eyes, his voice steady, "You need to calm

Dr. Avery, the head doctor, asked as he walked into the room."Better than ever, Doc," Richard replied with a grin. "I can't believe it. I never thought I'd walk again."Dr. Avery nodded, a pleased smile on his face. "Well, it looks like all the treatments have paid off. Your progress has been remarkable."Richard watched as Dr. Avery checked his vitals once again with some advanced devices. The doctor meticulously noted Richard's bone density and neural connections. "Everything looks great," Dr. Avery confirmed, adjusting his glasses. "Your bones have regained their strength, and your neural connections are functioning perfectly.""That's amazing," Richard said, flexing his fingers. "It's like a miracle.""It certainly is," Dr. Avery agreed. He then proceeded to ask Richard a series of questions to ensure everything was in order

The gate was locked, so Alisha honked several times, but there was no answer.Richard noticed her frustration and said, "Don't worry, honey, I've got this."He tried getting out of the car, but Alisha stopped him. "Dad, I'll handle it," she said.But Richard insisted, "No, I'll do it."He finally got out of the car and proceeded to go open the gate for her.At that moment, Kate was already coming out of the house, muttering, "I'm coming, I'm coming."

Chapter 262It was almost 5pm.Meanwhile, Eric Wood sat in his office, the dim lighting reflecting his somber mood as he stared at the phone on his desk. The thought of visiting Liam Carter in the hospital sent chills down his bones.Liam has been effectively blackmailing him into a business partnership, and it weighed heavily on his mind because Liam might accuse him of being responsible for current state. He ran a hand through his hair, debating whether it was worth the trouble.

Chapter 263Eric Wood stepped out of the car, his driver quickly moving to open the door for him. He nodded in acknowledgment, adjusting his suit jacket as he stepped onto the pavement.The familiar sight of the hospital loomed before him, a place he had visited countless times with his daughter, Claire, for her checkups. It felt different today, though. This visit wasn’t for Claire—it was business, and it was personal.As he walked toward the entrance, a few hospital workers milling about recognized him. Their faces lit up with recognition as they approached him.“Mr. Wood, good afternoon!” one of the nurses greeted him with a warm smile. “It’s been a while since we last saw you.”“Good afternoon, Mr. Wood,” another worker chimed in, extending a hand. “How have you been?”Eric smiled politely, shaking hands with them. “Good afternoon,” he replied, his tone friendly but professional. “It’s good to see all of you.

Thank you,” Eric replied and smiled at her.He readied himself before entering.As Eric stepped into Liam's room, he noticed the subtle tension in the air. Liam was seated upright in his hospital bed, a book resting on his lap. He looked up as Eric entered, his expression neutral but with a hint of curiosity.His lips curled into a faint smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes. “Eric,” he said smoothly, closing the book and placing it on the table beside him. “What a pleasant surprise.”Eric forced a smile, trying to hide his nerves. "Liam, it's good to see you. I wanted to check in and see how you're doing after... everything that happened."Liam’s smile widened, a predatory glint in his eyes, as he cracked his knuckles. “That’s very considerate of you.
