The guests began to enjoy themselves after the bride and the groom made a toast to them.
It was impossible for Kate to ignore the handsome Owen. After one mouthful of food, Kate leaned over and said, “Owen, you are so handsome. You must be married<b>.</b><b>” </b>
With a <b>faint </b>smile, Owen replied, “Not yet.”
“Do you have a girlfriend?”

Some people stood out among the crowd even if they wanted to keep a low profile. Owen was one of those people. He seemed nice and approachable, as if he w

That was how Kate got deceived. Hearing Betty, Kate shed an embarrassed smile and said, “You are right, Betty. Sorry, Mr. Shaw.”

was softened. “No, no, don’t apologize. I know that you try to help. I do like someone.”
Hearing this, Aaron raised his head with a jerk and forgot the food. He thought, is Mr. Shaw serious? I see no woman in his life.
While Aaron was in <b>shock</b>, Kate selected him <b>as </b>her new prey. She asked him a lot of questions.
Suddenly, the little girl started coughing, <b>and </b>her face quickly turned <b>red</b>. Kate swiftly patted the girl on the back while offering her some water.
Betty gave Kate <b>a </b>hand while saying, “Many folks caught a cold recently. The kid is vulnerable, <b>so </b>you had better keep her at home.”
The little girl was Violet, two years old: She was the daughter of Kate’s daughter,

Violet had abnormal flushes on her face. It took her quite a while to stop coughing Hugging Kate, Violet had tears on her face as the <b>said</b><b>, </b><b>“</b>Granny, I feel so bad.”
It was cold in winter, but the wedding party was hold in a house. That was why Kate had attended the party with violet.

Not a good sign that so many people caught a cold at the same time,” he thought.
When the wedding party was <b>over</b>, Owen looked at Kate and asked, “Kate, do you have any masks at home?”
Kate nodded. “Yes, I do. Do you need any?”
“There may be a flu epidemic. Wear a mask when you have to go out. So should you, Betty.”
Betty similed. “Thanks for your <b>advice</b>, Mr. Shaw.
“You may call me Owen,” Owen responded.
Owen then <b>said </b>to Aaron, “Let’s <b>go </b>buy some masks and medicine. Aaron showed no objections.

Daniel clutched his chest at the news that <b>Liam </b>intended <b>to </b>wire one hundred million dors to Aria. “You know the status quo of the Cole Group. Why did you sign the paper?”
“Grandpa, the Cole Group was in a better situation when I signed the agreement. I will pay her with my own savings,” Liam exined.
Daniel rolled his eyes at Liam “All <b>your </b>savings are less than 150 million dors. What can you do after you t provide for Hannah? You care about your reputation. Have you thought of this family?”
transfer all the money to Aria? <b>How </b>can you
Daniel didn’t expect Liam to be so foolish though Liam had disappointed him many times. He felt lucky that he had another grandson. <b>“</b><b>Or</b>, the Cole Group will bepletely ruined by Liam,” he thought
“Grandpa,” Liam <b>argued</b>, “Look. If I don’t give Aria the money, Mono’s student will cause trouble for her. If Aris reims the paintings, I will lose both the money <b>and </b>the paintings.”
Liam hade up with a n when he agreed to pay Aria. “<b>Now </b>that Mono no longer lives in seclusion, <b>and </b><b>the </b>identity of his student is still a <b>mystery</b><b>. </b><b>I </b>can sell these paintings at a price higher <b>than </b>one hundred million dors after they are repaired.”
<b>Daniel </b><b>was </b>well–informed though he spent most of his time at home. His expression was sohened. “Get the <b>paintings </b>repaired first. Don’t transfer the money till Aria urges you. Just let Hannah know what she should. She does more harm than good.”
Liam nodded with aplicated expression. “Got you<b>, </b>Grandpa.”
Because of the misinformation from Hannah, Collin refused Johan’s offer.
<b>Liam </b>knew the truth very
very well because he had been on the site.
Reflecting, he felt down. Once again, he had doubts about Hannah’s perfect image in his heart.
.
Without a warning, Collin gave Hannah a hard p <b>as </b><b>he </b>shouted, “You ruined my career!”
Hannah was sturmed. When she came back to her lenses, her eyes zed with fury. “<b>Collin</b>! Why did you p me? tried to help
“Did you? You lied, so Johan misunderstood met offended those people. No experts will ept me as their disciple anymore. Volunteers? Saved lives? You are nothing but a mistress. What a fool I was to trust people like you!”
Hannah shed tears because the ridicule from her family was hurtful. “How can you <b>misunderstand </b>me as outsiders do?”
Sad, she ran out of the house and refused to acknowledge her blunder.

“Every coin has two sides, Collin wants to learn from Mono, so he said no to Johan’s offer himself He made the wrong decision, I did nothing wrong<b>” </b><b>she </b>
thought.
Right then, her phone buzzed. There <i>can </i><ul><li>a message from Hellner Hospital, She was recruited. </li></ul>
Hannah wiped off her tears. “I shouldn’t waste my time on trifles. Many patients need me,” she thought.
“Mr. Shaw, the clinics are packed out for the flu. Speaking, Aaron pulled his mask with worry.
He might have been infected if Owen hadn’t let him wear a mask three days ago.
Owen frowned and said, “The average flu doesn’t spread so quickly?
“It is weird. I wish the medical team would arrive as soon as possible”
Right then, Kate came into view, together with a wheelchair.
“Kate, what’s wrong?” Owen asked.
Kate stopped and replied with worry, “Betty is infected. I am sending her to the hospital.”
Owen looked at the wheelchair and found Betty nestling in it with a nket,
“I should inform Madelyn,” Kate said. Then, she walked on.
