“Ellie, listen. You are always busy with work, so don’t take the kid with you. When Oscar is discharged from the
hospital, | will take him home,” in the ward, Joanna kept persuading Ellie.
Ellie just smiled. “Mom, I'm not tired.”
“You're just as stubborn as your dad.” Then Joanna carried the food container to the kitchenette.
Thinking of her deceased dad, Ellie slowly stopped smiling. She sat down beside the hospital bed, lowered her
head, and fell
silent.
“Dr. Thompson, may | cin?” Just then, Deborah, dressed elegantly, stood at the ward door and knocked.
Ellie stood up to greet her.
“I just finished work and cto pay for Oscar's medical expenses,” Deborah explained her purpose.
“I'll show you the way.” Ellie told Joanna and then took Deborah to the cashier.
Her son’s injury was a result of her own negligence, so she didn’t hold anyone else responsible.
However, Deborah insisted on taking responsibility and eagerly offered to pay. Ellie found it difficult to refuse.

divorced and currently raising two children alone.”
“Yes,” Ellie admitted frankly.
Deborah said, “Dr. Thompson, | understand you very well, but a superior man like Mr. Warren is not someone an
average woman can handle. Smart people always act within their capabilities. Don’t you think?”
Ellie knew that Deborah was implying something.
With her hands in the pockets of her white coat, Ellie looked up at Deborah and said, “Ms. Gelhorn, you're a
smart person indeed.”
Deborah fixed her sunglasses and said, “The bracelet Mr. Warren left in the ward was for you, right?”
Ellie stood still calmly and didn’t answer her.
Deborah took a step forward and bent down to whisper in Ellie's ear, “Dr. Thompson, I'm just reminding you
kindly. It's not easy to hang out with rich men.
“For a man like Mr. Warren who likes to play around, women are nothing but playthings in his
eyes.
“When he gets bored, he’ll abandon you without hesitation. Even if you kneel down and beg him, he won't soften
his heart or change his mind at all.”
The two women looked at each other, and then Ellie said casually, “Don’t worry, Ms. Gelhorn. Except for my own
dad, | will never kneel down and cry in front of any other man.”

Deborah said, “I hope so.”
Deborah didn’t get any advantage from Ellie. Then she turned and left arrogantly.
When Ellie returned to the ward, it was already after work hours.
She went to the ward's balcony and called Lacey, telling her that Mark had already left work and the boughed.
“Ellie, did | go too far?” Lacey sounded depressed on the other end of the phone.
Ellie said, “Lacey, Mark postponed his

“What does it mean?” Lacey's voice sounded cautious.
Ellie said, “It means that you don’t care about Mark at all and have no trust in him”
