Joshua felt mortified.

Axell wasn’t daft.

He figured Albert must’ve known something, else he wouldn’t have singled them out like this.

Axell lingered, glancing at Albert.

“You saw Jessie, huh?”

Albert stayed quiet.

Perched on the bed, Jeslyn piped up, “Not only did my daddy saw her, but she whipped up wonton for me.

Axell’s expression soured.

At this point, Albert wouldn’t let Jessie and Axell stay tight.

Even if Jessie ended up mad at him, he wouldn’t regret it.

Albert exited, shutting the door behind him.

“Dr.

Calderon, could we please have a word?”

Axell locked eyes with Albert.

They strolled to the smoking spot.

Axell, off duty, shed his white lab coat and snagged a smoke from Albert.

With wisps of smoke swirling, Albert casually remarked, “It seems Like Jessie’s just one of your options.

Debra ticks all the boxes for you and your folks.

Albert had hit the nail on the head, and Axell felt a twinge of annoyance.

Albert was seasoned in reading people.

He could see through Axell.

Despite being with Jessie, Axell didn’t turn down Debra.

If riches rolled in, Axell might choose wealth over Jessie.

Albert tossed out casually, “I’ll drop a billion bucks into the hospital if you tie the knot with Debra.

Axell was floored by the offer.

Axell felt a sting of insult.

Once an intellect, now maneuvered like a puppet, his life dictated.

Coldly, Axell shot back, “Mr.

Waston, you reckon money’s the answer to everything?”

Albert’s smile was wistful.

“No.

No amount of money can buy Jessie back.

The more she adored me then, the more she despises me now.

Axell didn’t want to hear any of their history.

After pondering, he began, “Mr.

Waston, I want to make it clear that …”

Albert flicked cigarette ash, smiling softly.

“I’ll have Joshua bump you up to VP of the hospital this month.

Think about it.

You’ll be the youngest VP in Duefron’s top private hospital.

A bright future awaits.

Axell’s face flushed with anger.

But he knew better than to refuse.

Albert had a hold on Axell’s ambition.
