Mr. Everett must really be head over heels for his new love interest. Before his divorce, the gossip about him and Margot was nonstop. Mrs. Bet kicked up quite a fuss, but Mr. Everett wouldn''t distance himself from Margot. Yet once he was free, he quickly cut ties with


    her. It''s been three years now, and he hasn''t been involved in a single scandal!


    One of the young women, Hannah, sped her hands dramatically and sighed, "Is this what they call a tycoon''s devotion to just one person? So, it turns out Mrs. Bet and Margot were just distractions, and this new woman is truly the one Mr. Everett cherishes!" "Exactly! Despite all the plotting by the former two, they couldn''t outshine the one who cameter!"


    Selena lowered her gaze, clutching the papers in her hands a bit tighter.


    After settling the bill, she rode the elevator up to the private room. Brook, dressed in hospital gown, was slumped in the bed, going on and on about how he was at death''s door.


    Selena pulled up a chair and sat down beside him. "You''re not dying. It''s just a suspected case of stomach cancer, not confirmed yet."


    Since Brook''s ordeal with loan sharks three years ago, he''d be extra cautious about his health. A minor issue in his check-up had him in a panic, insisting Selenae back to be with him.


    As he aged, he leaned more on Selena, seeing her as more dependable than his own son. Ricky had been taking care of him, which only seemed to irritate Brook.


    With no choice, Selena took vacation days to fly back and be with him for the check-up. She hoped for the best but was prepared to make arrangements if it turned out to be serious.


    Her presence calmed Brook a bit, easing some of his anxiety.


    Half an hourter, Ricky showed up. Seeing how tired Selena looked, he quickly said, "Sis, you should head home and get some rest. I''ll stay here with him. You''ve been way too amodating, rushing here straight off the ne."


    Brook immediately red up, "You don''t cater to me, and now you don''t want your sister to either? You little rascal. Maybe my illness is from your pestering!"


    Ricky shot back with a grin, "If it was from pestering, it would be your liver, not your stomach. Stop ming everything on others."


    Brook: "............"


    Watching the familiar banter between father and son, Selena couldn''t help but smile warmly.


    She thought for a moment and then said to Ricky, "Alright, I''ll go home, drop off my luggage, and rest a bit. I''lle back tonight to take over your shift."


    Ricky handed her his car keys. "Sis, take my car. It''s tough to catch a taxi around here." "Okay."
