Liam crouched downbeside Grandma and whispered a few words to her. Then, he stood up and took over the wheelchair from me. “It’s mostly handled.”
As we walked, he turned to me and smiled as our eyes met, “Maybe around New Year’s Eve… I’ll tell you about it later.”
I raised an eyebrow and walked alongside him. “As your business partner, I don’t think keeping secrets is a good habit.” He bent over to make sure Grandma’s seatbelt was secure before saying, “Mts.

As the New Year approached, the atmosphere in the hospital was much lighter than usual. Even the other patients couldn’t help but smile when they saw Liam running down the hallway, shouting, “Nurses, please make way Thank you!”

Liam looked back while running. “How could that be? The gorgeous lady is of course Mrs. Wiley Senior!”

He turned to Andy and asked in a pained voice, “Andy, should I stop bothering her?”
Ethan thought of the words I had said to him every time I rejected him. I’d told him that loving him was exhausting and that I wanted to live a calm, happy life.
