M did not dare disturb Drew. She knew that Drew harbored a
resentment toward her and this family.
Although she poured her heart out for this family and sincerely loved Wyatt and his children, in Drew’s
eyes, she would always be the
woman who broke his father’s monogamous marriage. Celeste and
Sasha came after her.
If M had not intruded into their family, perhaps Wyatt would not
have had so many women.
Being the first “mistress” to appear, M bore the most criticism and pressure, always carrying
immense guilt with her.
“There’s no time to lose. I’ll call Arnold now.”
As long as it was something Be asked for, M had to solve it for
her immediately. She picked up her phone and dialed her nephew’s
number.
After a few rings, a young and clear voice came from the other end of the phone. It sounded
unexpectedly youthful. “Aunt M, I miss you
so much!”
“Arnold, are you busytely? You did not even call me. Are you having so much fun outside that you
have forgotten your aunt?” M deliberately teased.
“How could it be? You’re thest person I will ever forget. Beautiful women have a significant ce in
my heart, especially a beauty like you, Aunt M.” Arnold’s ttering words came effortlessly.
Be discreetly raised her brows.
The way Arnold talked to M reminded Be of the charming seducer, George Wickham from Jane
Austen’s novel.
It was not what she had imagined.
“Arnold, you’re not young anymore. I could praise you for being charming if you said this when you
were younger, but it’s corny now,”
M chuckled as she teased.
“Corny? I’m only 27. Men only start to seem corny when they’re thirty.”
Arnold smirk. “If I’m not mistaken, quite a few of my cousins have reached thirty. You must have seen
too many corny men. You should
Be heard everything and gritted her teeth. She thought, ‘Why does
this man have such a foul mouth?’
“Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore.”
M cleared her throat and hesitated before saying, “Arnold, I actually
called you because I need a favor.”
“Just tell me directly. Don’t use the word ‘favor”.”
M paused for a moment and said softly, “Can you make time toe back to Savrow? I have an
acquaintance who was struck in the
head a few days ago and nearly lost his life. After undergoing surgery,
his condition stabilized, but it left him with serious after-effects.
Arnold, you are a genius in this field. Can you try to treat him for my
sake?”
“An acquaintance? Who is it?” Arnold asked.
M nced at Be, who had a nervous look. “Come back first. bring you to meet him.”

“Aunt M, you know my rules. The first thing I need to know is a
patient’s identity and background. If not, I won’t do anything.” Arnold
did not fall for it.
This man was much harder to deal with than Be had thought.
M had no choice but to be honest. “He’s Justin Salvador, an
important friend of Be’s.”
“Justin Salvador? The president of the Salvador Corporation in
Savrow?” Arnold’s tone immediately changed.
“Yes.”
“Aunt M, I have other matters to attend to. Goodbye.”
“Arnold! Listen to me first!”
“There’s nothing to be said, Aunt M. You know my rules. I went to Meridan alone, developing my
career without anyone to rely on,
because I couldn’t stand how the hospitals in Savrow worshiped private corporations and the rich.
When I worked at a hospital in Savrow, I witnessed a poor couple kneel in front of the director’s office,
begging for a heart transnt that should have belonged to their daughter!”
