00:00Before listening from episode 41 to episode 45,
00:04don't forget supporting me by buying for me a coffee from the link in the description or in the first comment or below the video.
00:12To motivate me, share all chapters of the book. Also, don't forget subscribe, comment, and like.
00:19All three of the figures in the image were facing the camera.
00:23However, ever since the twins had realized the truth,
00:26they had deliberately started to wear face masks wherever they went in the hallways to prevent anyone from discovering the truth.
00:34The camera's resolution was also very low, so it was impossible to differentiate between the children right away.
00:42Nora hesitated for a moment, then pointed to one of them and said,
00:47This one could be Pete. Nora scoffed and said that my daughter.
00:52To be honest, both of them are exactly the same height, and their mannerisms are also identical, she thought.
00:59It's very peculiar. I only recognize Cherry because of the Spider-Man outfit she's wearing.
01:06Unconvinced. Just enough. Are you sure? I can't tell which is which. Six is fierce.
01:13Gaze on the image of Chester instead, Nora said sarcastically. That seems to be your younger brother,
01:20Mr. Hunt.
01:23Outside the door,
01:24three heads were lined up sideways, their ears pressed against the door as they quietly listened to the sounds in the room.
01:33A commotion inside the room intrigued them all. Cherry and Pete looked at Chester.
01:39Uncle Chester,
01:40What are mommy and daddy doing? Are they tearing down the place? Chester replied triumphantly.
01:47They're fighting with each other.
01:49It's not something that children need to understand. In any case, their relationship will definitely improve after they're done fighting.
01:58Cherry was a little worried. She asked, Is the fight supposed to be this intense?
02:04Chester raised an eyebrow and answered, Of course.
02:08Love may even be at stake here.
02:11Two of you are the result of one of the fights they had in the past.
02:15Cherry was confused. She frowned and asked,
02:19But what if mommy beats daddy up so badly that he breaks?
02:23Pete felt anger towards his father. How can daddy fight with a woman so wrong?
02:28No wonder he can't impress mommy and make her want to marry him. Chester was amused by the children.
02:35Little did he know how wrong he was and his assumptions about Nora and Justin's activities.
02:40He continued to listen to the sounds in the room for a while with great interest and was secretly impressed.
02:47Justin is Justin after all.
02:49Sure, going out in there.
02:52It sounds stop soon after.
02:55Chester pressed his ear harder against the door and asked in a low voice,
02:59Can't help feel bad helping you guys hide the truth from Justin?
03:04When are you going to tell him? Harry was clever and quick-witted.
03:09She didn't have a firm opinion on this. She looked at her brother for guidance.
03:14He heard his lips and answered, I'll tell him everything.
03:18After mommy cures great-grandma's illness, it thought about it very clearly.
03:23Keeping this a secret was disrespectful to their parents,
03:27especially when their mom was still searching all over the world for him and going through unimaginable worry.
03:33If they don't fall in love with each other, even after they spent the next few days together,
03:38then I won't try to force the menure. He decided.
03:43Just as Chester was about to reply, the door shook violently.
03:47Someone was banging on it from inside.
03:50Furious voice came from within the door,
03:53Chester open this door right now!
03:55Chester quickly opened the metal padlock.
03:58Justin stormed out of the room looking angrier than ever. He took Pete and Chester upstairs.
04:04Nah, I didn't care how he was going to punish Chester. She was sitting on the sofa staring at Sherry.
04:11She asked sternly, why did you do that Sherry?
04:15Sherry hung her head and stared at her finger, so intimidated dare not speak.
04:21Nora softened her tone and asked, do you want me to get together with Justin Hunt?
04:26Sherry nodded.
04:28She tried to explain without revealing the real secret.
04:32Mommy, if you convinced that I mean Jocelyn become your husband, how impressive would it be when you go out together?
04:40He's so handsome and rich. Don't you want?
04:44Nora looked at her daughter with concern. She robbed her temples and asked with allow.
04:50The idea was, Sherry sold her uncle out without hesitation.
04:54Checks upstairs.
04:56Chester looked at Justin, who was sitting on the sofa, seriously with trepidation.
05:02He swallowed and said,
05:04Justin, I meant well.
05:06You haven't been with a woman for so many years. I don't get how you haven't gone completely crazy.
05:13He was so frightened that his legs felt like jelly, clamped them together as he listened to his brother's reply.
05:20What were you thinking?
05:22You weren't, of course.
05:25As punishment, no living expenses for you.
05:29Six months. His words stunned Chester, who blurted out that?
05:34I was expecting far care. I thought he'd have me completely cut off because I plotted against him.
05:40If I were anyone else, I'd have made sure to completely destroy me. He thought relieved.
05:47Justin raised an eyebrow. What do you think? I'm being too lenient.
05:52The actor immediately started backpedaling anxiously.
05:56He replied, no, of course not. Six months without living expenses. How am I going to buy game credit?
06:04Can't get any worse than that. He fled and Justin leaned back against the sofa.
06:09He let his mind return to the memory of holding Nora's shoulders downstairs and kissing her.
06:14He touched his mouth. I can still feel the smooth sensation of her lips on mine.
06:20He also remembered when the bath towel had suddenly dropped.
06:24Nope, I didn't see anything.
06:27Nothing at all. The next day, Nora got Mrs. Lewis to pack their belongings early in the morning.
06:34They went to the airport at noon.
06:36When they found out Nora was going to New York with Justin,
06:40Simon and Melissa had decided to take the same flight.
06:43When they got there,
06:45Simon would be transferred to Nice General Hospital. The standard of medical care there was much better than in California.
06:52It was only when they arrived at the airport that Nora discovered they were actually taking a private jet.
06:59Melissa was impressed. She remarked with a sigh,
07:03Private jets have to be scheduled in advance. It takes a lot of organization.
07:08For Justin to have arranged all this so quickly is pressing the hunt.
07:13Sure are living up to their reputation as a super influential family.
07:18Nora's eyes flickered a little awkwardly at the mention of the...
07:22She soon saw exactly how meticulous he was.
07:26He arranged a private room for her on the plane at a large,
07:29comfortable bed so her sleepy needs would be fully met.
07:33He slept the whole way to New York. On arrival, Melissa went home with Carrie in the luggage,
07:39while Nora and the hospital staff had come to pick them up.
07:43Accompanied Simon and Justin to the hospital.
07:46When they got there, Nora helped Simon to settle down in the Veep Ward 4.
07:50Then she went to the IQ to find Justin and his grandmother.
07:55Justin had sent Nora Mrs. Hunt's medical records back in California itself when she had agreed to treat her.
08:02Nora didn't want to waste any time.
08:05The day she saved the elderly lady's life,
08:08the day that she would get her son back,
08:10she wanted to go over and take a look so she could schedule the surgery as soon as possible.
08:16He hadn't expected to hear urgent beeping coming from the heart rate monitor inside the IQ.
08:23The moment she reached the door,
08:25out in the hallway,
08:28some of the Hunts from Howard's side of the family line confronting Justin and Peep.
08:34Pete, who was wearing a mask and a cap,
08:37was looking toward the wards anxiously.
08:40Justin's uncle was pointing at Peter and yelling,
08:43Jinx, you're a great grandma when it's critical condition the moment you came back.
08:49Now she won't be able to get the surgery even if we do find the femur. Too late.
08:55Pete's eyes reddened as he clenched his tiny fist.
08:59Great-grandma, you have to hold on. Justin frowned, concern etched in his face.
09:05She was in a stable condition. Why had she suddenly deteriorated so quickly?
09:11Shrill beeping alarms continued. Sharp voice reached them from inside the IQ ward. We're losing her.
09:18The place is in chaos.
09:20The sounds of doctors and nurses administering emergency medical treatment be heard coming from inside the ward.
09:27Mom, grandma,
09:29grandma,
09:31grandma.
09:32Shut up.
09:34Justin barked fiercely, causing their sobs to stop abruptly.
09:38Justin's uncle, Raymond Hunt,
09:42immediately said reproachfully,
09:44Just because you're cold and heartless, Justin, doesn't mean we can't be upset. You can't forbid.
09:51Justin shot him a glare and snapped.
09:54Grandma isn't dead.
09:56Raymond was so frightened by him. The words had been about to utter stuck in his throat.
10:01Everyone stared at Justin,
10:04pressed his lips together, and looked over the ward.
10:07He started to tremble. He was usually smart and for his age,
10:12but he was at a loss now. He felt scared and helpless, as if sensing his son's panic.
10:18Justin placed a large hand on his shoulder.
10:21He felt warm and gradually calmed down. You saw Justin looking down at him.
10:27His rich voice was soothing, as you said. Don't be scared.
10:32Pete?
10:33Pete's eyes reddened again. He nodded.
10:36Nora had walked over to join them at the ward. She glanced at Pete because she'd needed to sleep on the plane.
10:42She'd stayed inside her room with Jerry the whole time, and hadn't interacted with Justin and his son.
10:48Now that she was so close to Pete, she realized his physique really was very similar to Jerry's.
10:55She wanted to observe him a little more, but the sounds in the ward caught her attention.
11:01When Justin noticed that she hadn't entered the ward yet, his heart sank.
11:06Even she thinks Grandma is doomed. His voice was very low.
11:11For the first time, there was helplessness and pleading, and he said,
11:15Business, please.
11:17However, before he finished speaking, Nora entered the ward.
11:21Nice General Hospital was indeed worthy of its reputation as the best hospital in the country.
11:28Boasted the best conditions for medical care in the states,
11:32from the highest quality equipment to exceptionally well-trained and professional doctors and nurses.
11:38The team worked on just Grandmother were organized and efficient. They tried to save their patient.
11:45Prepare to apply shock.
11:47200 V
11:49Stand clear.
11:51Mrs. Hunt's heart finally started beating again, and the doctors and nurses breathed a collective sigh of relief.
11:58Nora, however, frowned. He'd studied the patient's data carefully. Something doesn't feel right.
12:05Dr. Tina York, the physician in charge of Mrs. Hunt's care, had been part of the emergency rescue efforts.
12:12She took off her mask,
12:14revealing a bright, attractive face underneath. Her voice was calm and steady.
12:19She provided an update on her patients.
12:22Mr. Hunt, your grandmother's body is already at the clinic.
12:27Cardiac arrest. She suffered was caused multiple organ failure.
12:31Once she doesn't wake up soon. I'm afraid there won't be much more we can do.
12:37Chat and frown.
12:39Now, Dr. York, we thought she was stable. Why did this suddenly happen?
12:46At his question,
12:48Tina frowned and sighed. She replied, your grandmother is 80 years old.
12:53Her body is no longer as healthy as it was before.
12:57Justin looked at Nora.
12:59Now, should we proceed with the surgery immediately?
13:03No, you must.
13:06Tina shook her head before Nora could reply. Her voice was mild and gentle as she spoke.
13:12She sounded confident and reliable.
13:15Mrs. Hunter's two weeks at the moment.
13:18We've only just managed.
13:20Stabilize her. She undergoes surgery.
13:24Now, we risk the operation doing further harm.
13:27Nora added, she was carefully observing the patient. Mrs. Hunt's eyes were closed.
13:33She was thin and her face was covered in wrinkles.
13:37There was barely any sign of life on her as she lay on the bed and
13:41certainly in an extremely weak state.
13:44But if we don't get the surgery done, the blood clot in her brain will impede circulation for a prolonged period.
13:51Her chances of her waking up will become increasingly low.
13:55While she was thinking, another quarrel broke out outside the door.
14:01Raymond and his family, but also heard what Tina had said,
14:05infuriated. Raymond exclaimed, does that mean my mother is doomed? What did she ever do to deserve this?
14:13We told her that that boy Justin brought back was a bad apple.
14:17She refused to believe us and insisted on keeping him by her side.
14:21And it all ended up with him pushing her down the stairs. He might as well kill her.
14:27Raymond was 55 years old. He looked thin, but was surprisingly energetic.
14:32He had a shrewd look in his eyes, came from many years of life experience.
14:38His son Roger had the Hunt family trait, deep-set eyes.
14:42However,
14:43the look in them wasn't as deep and unfathomable as that.
14:47He was usually smiling or up to some kind of mischief or other.
14:51He sighed and choked on his sobs as he said,
14:55Don't say that, Dad. Pete's not like other kids. He didn't mean to do it. He never would have wanted to hurt his great-grandma.
15:04There was a boy on their side of the family, in the same generation as Pete.
15:09His name was Freddy. He was overweight. His eyes were barely visible in his chubby cheeks.
15:15Freddy suddenly rushed up to Pete, curled his hand up into a fist, and sent it flying towards Pete, faith-fiercely.
15:23What did you do? You murder her!
15:29Justin was just about to ask Nora for her expert opinion after hearing what Tina had said.
15:35I can't believe such a critical moment.
15:38My uncle and his family are ignoring Grandma's condition and starting to heat again.
15:43What's their problem?
15:45Then he saw Freddy about to punch Keith in the face.
15:48Justin lost it. He couldn't restrain the anger he'd been suppressing anymore.
15:53He reached out and pushed, ready to the ground as fast as he could, the nudge caused, ready to slide across the ground.
16:02Justin hadn't pushed him too hard, so he didn't suffer any real injury.
16:07The pain made him burst into tears. He scrambled over to Raymond and hid behind them.
16:13Save me, Grandpa!
16:15Uncle Justin trying to kill me?
16:18Raymond turned on Justin, shouting angrily. What are you doing? Anger sparked in Justin's eyes.
16:25His voice was cold and ruthless as he said, if you can't keep your grandson in check, then I'll do it for you.
16:32Raymond Yale, why don't keep your own son in check first? He caused your grandmother's death.
16:38That is absolutely unforgivable.
16:42Justin took a step forward imposingly and said Pete didn't kill anyone.
16:47She isn't dead and he says he didn't push her.
16:50I trust him.
16:52Roger stood between Justin and the others. He sighed gently and said,
16:57Justin, trust makes no difference.
17:00It's no use.
17:02It's obvious from the living room security camera footage. He pushed her.
17:07We've already given the footage to Grandpa and decided they're holding a family meeting this week and are going to expel Pete from the family.
17:16Dustin was distressed. How can we possibly get Pete off the hook?
17:21Servants testified. He argued with Grandma in his video footage.
17:25They'll say it's fundamental evidence supports their accusation. The camera was angled in such a way.
17:32The video only showed everything from the back. In the video, Grandma was falling and Pete's arms were outstretched behind her.
17:40Well, it does look like Pete pushed her, but he says he didn't.
17:45Now, I believe my son always.
17:48Roger is right though. What you have that they've got both witness testimonials and material evidence,
17:55there's only one option left now, and that's to save Grandma.
17:59When she regains consciousness, she'll tell everyone what really happened. She's the only person who can prove Pete's innocence.
18:08Pete stayed hard at the door to his grandmother's room.
18:12He didn't hear the others reprimanding him. The only thing he cared about was his great-grandmother's survival.
18:19Seeing the elderly lady lying motionless, his eyes filled with tears, he rushed into the ward,
18:26hugged Nora's leg, and pleaded,
18:29Mommy saved great-grandma.
18:31Nora, who had been checking Mrs. Hunt's vital signs,
18:35froze at hearing the child's voice.
18:38She lowered her head and saw the little boy looking up at her. Not so familiar, but I must have misheard him.
18:45He had a mask and a cap on, so his looks couldn't be clearly seen.
18:50His eyes were full of familial love and pleading.
18:54Nora's mind went blank, a distant thought at the back of her mind. But at that moment, another machine sounded an alarm.
19:03She shook her head to clear it. The thought was gone.
19:07Saving the patient is what matters most right now. She refocused on the situation in front of her.
19:14Mrs. Hunt's blood pressure had risen a little.
19:17Dr. York hurried back in and finally noticed Nora. She put on a mask and frowned as she asked, Who are you?
19:25This is the IQ ward. Please leave immediately.
19:29Dr. Smith is here on my request.
19:32Justin had joined them in the ward. He ordered, Let her assist with my grandmother's care.
19:39Tina paused for a moment and a sharp look flashed across her eyes.
19:43This is most irregular, she thought, but she nodded and said, All right, I'll allow it.
19:50She can take a look.
19:52Justin and Pete left the ward as it filled with professionals again, and the treatment restarted.
19:58Nora stood slightly off to the side, out of the way of the concentrated activity around the patient. Tina looked over,
20:06unsure what to make of her.
20:08He asked somewhat disdainfully,
20:11Sodium nitric oxide, Dr. Smith. Nora nodded, Sodium.
20:17Nitric oxide is a drug that lowers blood pressure. That's exactly what's needed right now.
20:23Pina quickly injected the drug into Mrs. Hunt. Her condition stabilized again.
20:29Few minutes later, Nora and Tina left the ward together.
20:33After reading through the patient's medical records, looking at her latest kick-scan results,
20:39Pina led the way. As soon as she left the ward, she saw Justin striding toward her.
20:45He took off her mask with a solemn look and was about to speak when Justin walked straight past her to Nora instead.
20:53He looked nervous as he asked his surgery possible.
20:57Tina spoke before Nora had the chance to answer.
21:01Mr. Hunt,
21:03Your grandmother's condition is very complicated. He has high blood pressure,
21:08multiple organ failure.
21:09She's taking a huge toll on her heart. She undergoes surgery now.
21:15Even if Dr. Smith was here to do the operation, there's only a 30 chance of success if we can't protect her heart.
21:23There's a 70 chance she'll die amid operation.
21:27Additionally, the surgery will be very dramatic, even if she's lucky enough to survive.
21:33Her heart would be damaged and she may end up living only six months.
21:37Dr. Smith, am I right?
21:40Nora nodded.
21:42That's a reasonable assessment of the situation.
21:45Tina glanced across Raymond and the others nearby.
21:48She turned her attention back to Justin and lowered her voice.
21:52However, I do have another suggestion here, Mr. Hunt.
21:57Justin finally looked her way.
21:59Pina raised her chin slightly and said, as you know, I am a student of Mr.
22:06Meyers, a master of alternative traditional medicine techniques.
22:10I'm familiar with some of these texts myself. I can use acupuncture to allow Mrs. Hunt to temporarily regain control.
22:20Temporarily,
22:22Justin was skeptical.
22:23Pina put her hands in the pockets of her white lab coat. She tried to explain,
22:29speaking calmly and steadily,
22:31hoping to put me at ease. I need him to trust me.
22:35Yes, I can use puncture needles,
22:38forcibly break through the blood clot in her brain so that she'll wake up temporarily.
22:43This is a commonly known phenomenon where a patient may experience a short-lived period of good health before their demise.
22:51However, you'll only be able to last the day when she's woken up. After that, she'll...
22:58Jackson's eyes widened and he pressed his lips tightly together.
23:02When Tina came to see that he understood what she was saying, she continued carefully.
23:08Mrs. Hunt's condition is such that if she undergoes surgery now,
23:13even if it goes well, she will only be able to live for six months using the best medications.
23:19The operation fails. She doesn't regain consciousness.
23:23She'll be in a coma for a couple of months before fading away.
23:27If you take my suggestion, we can wake up immediately and clear your son's name.
23:33You don't want his life to be ruined by something that wasn't his fault, do you?
23:38Nora, who'd been standing next to her,
23:41listening, was bewildered. Can't believe what I'm hearing.
23:45Tantamount murder. He might seem reliable, but it's an appalling idea.
23:51He looked at the floor and tried to hide her disdain.
23:55There's a clear right and wrong here, but Justin's ruthless and Tina's suggestion is his son's best interest.
24:02She was relieved when her thoughts were interrupted by Justin's cold warning. Dr. York, your duty is to the patient,
24:10not my son.
24:12Tina immediately lowered her head and said,
24:15My apologies, Mr. Hunt.
24:18Watch to grow up and I don't want him to have this awful accusation hanging over his head,
24:23but I shouldn't have suggested it. I got my priorities wrong.
24:28Justin was done wasting time listening to her. He asked Nora,
24:33Doctor, is surgery possible or not?
24:37These words were something that Nora had heard countless times from her patients and their families.
24:42Now,
24:43with Justin standing in front of her, saying them in his deep, rich life,
24:48he felt something stirred deep inside her. He brushed that feeling aside, smiled at him slightly, and confidently replied,
24:57Yes, it is. He added reassuringly,
25:01I predict that 99 chance of survival.
25:04That won't put his mind at rest.
25:07Nothing will. I can't guarantee you 100-y, can I?
25:12After all, what if there's an earthquake or something during the operation?
25:16Doctor, you can't be serious. And I exclaimed,
25:20Mr. Hunt, as your grandmother's doctor,
25:23I must tell you that the likelihood of a successful surgery would only be 30, even if it were Athena here
25:31performing the procedure. You mustn't let this woman fool you.
25:35Justin didn't have any doubts about Nora's words. He trusted her. He ordered, prepare the operating room immediately.
25:44Tina couldn't believe what was happening. She tried to calm herself down.
25:49What was he thinking? Why is he not listening to me? I'm his grandmother's doctor. I know her.
25:56Who is that woman? And why is he doing?
26:00What she says? You think she's so special?
26:04She's making a huge mistake. Let's see how he deals with her when his grandmother dies on the operating table.
26:11By the time the operating room was ready, Lily had arrived, as well as Nora's other assistants.
26:17There was no way she would use outsiders.
26:20Such a difficult operation. They are prepped and gowned up and then entered the theater to start the procedure.
26:27Lily complained softly.
26:29Patient is very advanced in years.
26:32Athena, the biggest problem is in her head. Her heart.
26:36Surgery is very risky in cases like this. Why did you agree to do it? Don't worry, Lily. I'll take care of her heart.
26:45Nora took out a few needles and pierced the old lady's heart and quickly and accurately feeling and protecting her heart.
26:53Meridian, her eyes gleam.
26:56Surgeon was just a title that people had given Athena based on preconceptions around her medical skills. It was a well-kept secret.
27:04She was also highly skilled, substantive medicine.
27:08Five hours later, Nora removed her surgical gown and walked out of the operating room,
27:13exhausted as he'd been drugged the night before. She was feeling a little short on energy that day.
27:20She collapsed onto the sofa in the sterile area and closed her eyes.
27:25A familiar voice came to her mind again.
27:28Mommy, save.
27:30Great-grandma.
27:31Great-grandma.
27:33Those eyes on that voice.
27:35He seemed so familiar.
27:37Nora awoke a few minutes later with a start.
27:40He left the room and immediately spotted Justin who had been waiting outside the whole time.
27:47He was leaning against the wall when he saw her walking toward him.
27:51Smiled slightly.
27:53He rarely showed emotion, but he couldn't help himself.
27:56That's something about her.
27:59And yet she denies having feelings for me.
28:02But her eyes look so passionate right now while his imagination was running wild.
28:08Nora rushed up to him and asked,
28:10Where's your son?
28:11Dustin was bewildered.
28:13His eyes betrayed his confusion.
28:15Why is she asking about Pete instead of telling me about the Opry?
28:20Still feeling confused.
28:22He told her he's gone home.
28:24And something the matter.
28:26The operation had lasted for six hours and it was already one in the morning.
28:31Pete had planned to stick it out, but he was still young after all and couldn't endure it.
28:37Justin had sent someone to take him home while he stayed at the hospital.
28:41He's long.
28:43Nora felt at a loss. She looked for.
28:46No.
28:47It's nothing.
28:48Why are you still here?
28:50Justin slowly stood up straight and looked at her intently.
28:54Dim lights made him look even more handsome and his voice was low and alluring as he replied.
29:00I'm waiting for you.
29:02It was late.
29:03Moonlight shone through the windows and the quiet hallway.
29:08Justin had stepped a little closer to her making the atmosphere seem somewhat romantic.
29:14That's crazy.
29:16He's surely not flirting with me. Not here.
29:20Not now.
29:22Nora shook her head slightly to get rid of the distracting thoughts in her mind.
29:27She chuckled softly and said, it's understandable that you're concerned about.
29:33Don't worry.
29:34The operation was a success.
29:37Your grandmother will be fine.
29:39She took out her cell phone and checked her text message.
29:42The Andersons have sent someone to pick me up.
29:45I'm going now.
29:46Goodbye.
29:47She turned around and walked away from him.
29:50He watched her go her step fast.
29:53Clumsy.
29:54I was going to take her back to the Andersons house.
29:57She must be exhausted.
29:59Justin was aware he was staring at.
30:01He pulled himself together and started to follow her to the hospital's exit.
30:06I trust her.
30:07I believe she's done a good job with grandma's operation.
30:11I'm so glad I found someone so skilled.
30:14He stopped in his tracks and he turned the corner.
30:17There was Nora still walking, but talking to someone on her phone.
30:21She kept her voice low as she said, look up Justin Hunt for us.
30:25He was puzzled.
30:27What?
30:28We're here.
30:29After so many years immersed in the world of commerce, he was usually good at reading
30:34people's intentions.
30:36Woman, so mysterious.
30:39She's so beautiful, but vague and charming.
30:43And she's the one person I can't see through at all.
30:46I have no idea what's going on inside her head.
30:50It's so hot and cold.
30:52She was so cool and indifferent toward me now and last night.
30:56And yet now she's getting someone to investigate me.
31:01He stopped following her.
31:02Nora hadn't noticed him behind her.
31:05She turned another corner and continued speaking.
31:08I want all the information you can find out about his son.
31:12On the other end of the call, Sola was full of questions.
31:16Why are you looking up his son?
31:19Oh, I see.
31:21You want to be a stepmother, right?
31:23Hey, I told you Justin's handsome, didn't I?
31:26Sure enough.
31:27You can't control yourself anymore after seeing him, right?
31:31Tell me I'm wrong.
31:33Nora's eyes flickered.
31:35She considered it.
31:36Is he handsome?
31:38The way he looked at her on the sofa last night when he was obviously drugged,
31:42still able to restrain himself, was indeed rather attractive.
31:46She replied dispassionately,
31:49He's possible.
31:50Sola whistled and said,
31:53And all the years I've known you,
31:55it's been a rare few that you've deemed passable.
31:58I think the two of you have a chance.
32:00Are you planning to?
32:03Nora interrupts and said,
32:05I hope to see the information in my mailbox when I wake up.
32:08Sola gave up.
32:10He replied,
32:11All right.
32:13Nora hung up and got into the car that Melissa had set her up,
32:17not in the mood to admire New York's night scenery.
32:21She closed her eyes and instantly fell asleep.
32:24Miss Smith.
32:25Miss Smith.
32:27Miss Smith.
32:28Nora opened her eyes, dazed,
32:30and found that they had arrived at the Andersons' house.
32:33The car had stopped at the port,
32:35and the small three-story villa was brightly lit.
32:39It was obvious the occupants were still awake.
32:42Nora yawned and glanced at time as she got out of the car.
32:46It's already two.
32:48Zero in the morning.
32:49The villa was decorated in a simple European style,
32:53felt refreshingly friendly and welcoming.
32:56Four people were sitting on the couch.
32:59An old lady who was nearly 80 years old,
33:01seated in the middle.
33:03The years had left their mark on her face,
33:06and she stared ahead blankly.
33:08She asked,
33:10You see here?
33:11Why do I hear a call?
33:13Melissa, who was sitting on her lap,
33:16smiled gently and said,
33:18Yes, it's her.
33:20She's here.
33:22The elderly Mrs. Anderson immediately stood up excitedly.
33:25She stretched out her arms in front of her and grabbed a boot.
33:28She called out,
33:29Nora, you're Nora, right?
33:32Do you look like your mother?
33:34A graceful young lady sat on her.
33:37Right.
33:38She was in her early twenties and resembled Melissa a little.
33:42She held the elderly Mrs. Anderson's arm and said,
33:45Grandma Nora, the image of her mother.
33:48She looks just like her.
33:50Melissa laughed and said,
33:52Cheryl, you make it sound like you've met your aunt before.
33:56Back when the Anderson's eldest daughter had run away from home,
34:00Melissa and Simon hadn't even married yet.
34:03Even at the wedding,
34:04she'd seen Nora's mother more in photos and in person.
34:08Her daughter had never met her.
34:11Cheryl Anderson stopped her tongue out to her mother and replied,
34:14Although I've never met her before,
34:16we are connected by blood.
34:19I felt a sense of kinship,
34:21nor the moment I saw her.
34:23Man, what a load, a nonsense.
34:27The young man sitting across from the three of them was a college student
34:30with handsome face and thick hair,
34:32had a wild and unruly look.
34:35Cheryl ignored her brother,
34:37took a brisk step forward instead.
34:39She gently pulled Nora over to Mrs. Anderson
34:42and placed her hand on the old ladies.
34:44Nora was a little taken aback.
34:47Grown up myths.
34:49When she was a child,
34:51she'd constantly been ridiculed for being obese because of her poor health.
34:55She didn't go out much.
34:57She had just stayed in her bedroom all the time.
35:00Initially, she had still gone downstairs for her meals.
35:04Later on, Wendy had someone bring her food up,
35:07so she didn't even have to leave her bedroom to eat anymore.
35:11She had been so lonely.
35:14She had always envied how happy the others looked.
35:17Perfect family of three without her.
35:19At first, she had longed for their love.
35:23But after so many years of her father looking at her the way he did,
35:28full of disgust,
35:30she lost that desire.
35:32He had taken to focusing all her energy on other things.
35:36Computer hacking.
35:38Medicine.
35:39Martial arts.
35:41Determined to become the best.
35:43As a result of her miserable upbringing.
35:46Nora was rarely this intimate with people except for Jerry.
35:50Thought it would feel strange,
35:51but her touch is actually quite nice.
35:54Her hands are soft.
35:55Her skin feels thin.
35:57But I can feel her warmth through her palms.
36:00Nora.
36:01The old lady with no work top.
36:03Her hands were shaking.
36:05You've had such a hard time all these years.
36:08Seeing that Nora didn't know what to do.
36:11Melissa said,
36:13Nor is here now.
36:15It's already two in the morning.
36:17Why don't we all go to bed?
36:19We can talk tomorrow instead.
36:21Okay.
36:22Mrs. Anderson wiped her tears and said,
36:25Laura, you must be tired to go to bed.
36:27Melissa got Cheryl to take the old lady to her bedroom and showed Nora the way upstairs.
36:33Melissa said,
36:34We've kept your mother's room the same all these years.
36:38Now that you're back, you can use it.
36:40Cherry is already asleep.
36:43By the way, Nora,
36:45I didn't tell anyone that Mr. Hunt asked you to go to the hospital to operate on his grandmother.
36:51I was afraid they'd be worried.
36:53Nora didn't want to reveal her identity either.
36:56She only wanted to stay here quietly for a few days.
37:00Once Mrs. Hunt woke up,
37:02she would return to California to look for her son.
37:06She nodded at Melissa gratefully,
37:08and they said good night as she was so tired.
37:10She didn't even look around her mother's old room.
37:13She went straight to bed,
37:15snuggling up with her daughter.
37:18When Nora opened her eyes the next day,
37:20Cherry was no longer by her side.
37:23She's probably playing downstairs, Nora thought.
37:27She looked around the room after she got up.
37:29It was twice as large as her bedroom in the house
37:32she'd grown up in in California and was decorated in white and gray.
37:36She could tell that her mother had been a strong woman.
37:39He showered and walked into the study part of the room.
37:43It was very clean.
37:45The Andersons were clearly very caring and thoughtful.
37:48Nora could feel all the love in the house.
37:52The absentmindedly picked up a book and looked at cover.
37:56It was about biological science and pharmaceutical industry.
38:00No wonder my mother found it.
38:03Ideally in pharmaceuticals,
38:05someone knocked lightly on the bedroom door.
38:08She opened it and saw Melissa standing there in a panic,
38:11said anxiously,
38:13Nora,
38:15something's gone wrong at the hospital.
38:17Nora raised an eyebrow.
38:19What happened?
38:21Mr. Hunts just called.
38:23He told me that his grandmother still hasn't woken up.
38:27He asked you to call him back as soon as possible.
38:31Nora was bemused.
38:33He was.
38:34I thinking that something really terrible happened.
38:38She called Justin and heard his deep voice answer the phone.
38:42Locksmith,
38:44my grandmother still hasn't woken up.
38:46I'm sorry.
38:48She coughed.
38:50That I forgot to tell you yesterday that because she's so weak,
38:53she most likely won't regain consciousness for a few more days.
38:57These things take time.
38:59You must understand that I'm sorry for not explaining all the details.
39:03It's my mistake.
39:05Justin fell silent for a moment.
39:08Nora thought back to the dispute they had had in the hallway
39:11when she had been busy checking the old lady's condition the day before.
39:16Well, it caused you any trouble with your son and with the rest of your family.
39:21Those are just trivial matters.
39:23Justin paused.
39:24Then he asked,
39:26Don't you have to come back to the hospital and check on my grandmother today?
39:30Nora asked him.
39:32Is your son at the hospital with you?
39:36No, he isn't, she replied.
39:39Okay, it's pointless for me to come in.
39:42All will be well as long as her vitals are normal.
39:46I trust the doctors there at the hospital will be professional
39:49when it comes to her nursing and care.
39:52There's no need for me to be there.
39:55Nice General Hospital was directly affiliated with the Hunt family.
39:59The wages and benefits they offered to employees were extremely attractive.
40:04The most renowned experts in the country worked with facility in the hospital.
40:09Johnson stood over her words after he hung up.
40:13He looked through the glass window on the door to his grandmother's room in the IQ.
40:17He pursed his lips tightly.
40:19Doubt flickered in his eyes.
40:21Why is she asking about my son again?
40:24It was as if she'd have come.
40:27Heat was here.
40:29Howard noticed his sullen expression and asked hesitantly,
40:33Is your grandmother all right?
40:34Just.
40:35Just.
40:37Justin replied,
40:39She's fine.
40:40Howard nodded.
40:42You know, I don't like Pete.
40:44And of course he's not worthy of being Justin's son.
40:47I care about her.
40:48I hope she'll wake up soon.
40:50He looked back at Justin and noticed that he was frowning,
40:54as if he was thinking about the biggest problem in the world.
40:57Are you sure everything's okay?
41:00Dustin pondered for a moment and then decided to talk about what he was thinking about.
41:06He looked at Howard and asked,
41:09What might be the reason a woman would show an interest in getting to know Pete?
41:13Howard answered,
41:15It would definitely be because she wants to marry you and be his stepmother.
41:20Justin asked hesitantly,
41:22But what if she's very cold and distant toward me?
41:25Howard scratched his head.
41:27Then he grinned and said with a thinking,
41:29Ah, surely she isn't thinking of becoming your daughter-in-law,
41:34even though he'll make someone very happy in the future.
41:37Pete's definitely too young to think about.
41:39Betrothal him to someone.
41:42Justin didn't find the joke funny.
41:44Howard saw the warning look in his eyes.
41:47He rubbed his nose and changed the subject.
41:50He asked carefully,
41:52Justin, if you're free today,
41:54can you take me to the Queen's School of Martial Arts?
41:57Often glared at him.
42:00He turned and walked out.
42:02Howard hurried after him, struggling to keep up.
42:05Where are you going?
42:07To go pick up pizza and go to the martial arts school.
42:10Great, and I come to Howard.
42:13Cut up.
42:14It won't be quite how I want, but at least I'll still get to go.
42:18Nora opened her email inbox.
42:21There was an investigation report and a message that Solo had sent.
42:26Thina, Justin is surprisingly easy to investigate.
42:30Hacking into his computer was a walk in the park.
42:33I've attached the document with all of the information.
42:36Clearly lists everything he's done from his childhood present day.
42:40So something very strange to part from his name, Peter Hunt.
42:44Everything else about his son surely hidden.
42:47Couldn't find anything at all.
42:49Nora was disappointed.
42:51She opened the file and looked up the month when she'd got inexplicably pregnant with the twins,
42:57only to find Justin hadn't been to California at that time.
43:02To close the mailbox with what happened yesterday.
43:06Really?
43:07Just an illusion.
43:09Aren't.
43:10We have to find a way to meet Justin's son.
43:13She felt crazy just thinking about it.
43:16But after five years of 13, she wasn't going to pass up any possibilities.
43:21Mommy, didn't you say you're taking me to Grand Park Wednesday?
43:25Cherry ran into the room wearing a princess dress.
43:29Nora looked at her phone and saw the text message that Quinn had sent her early in the morning.
43:35Probably given up waiting for me to reply.
43:37But he still hasn't called me.
43:39He must have been worried.
43:41He disturbed me.
43:42So kind and patient.
43:44That was exactly the sort of person Queen was.
43:48On the surface, he seemed like a cheeky old man.
43:52He would jokingly tell Nora off for being lazy and sleeping so long every day.
43:57Deep down, he understood that she needed the rest.
44:01Nora smiled and video called him.
44:04He picked up almost immediately, reprimanding her loudly.
44:08What's wrong with you?
44:09How can you sleep in until this hour?
44:12It's already afternoon.
44:14If I'd known what had happened that have sent someone cherry up a long time ago,
44:18Nora ignored him.
44:20She grinned and pointed the phone camera at Jerry.
44:24When Nora had been abroad, they'd often made video calls to each other.
44:28Cherry waved and said adorably, grab a queen mummy and I will come and visit you right now.
44:34Good.
44:35Good.
44:36Quinn spoke to Greybeards and said, let's hang up and stop wasting time.
44:41Hurry over.
44:43Nora took Sherry with her and went downstairs.
44:46She chatted with Melissa and the elderly, Mrs. Anderson,
44:49and learned that Simon would be discharged in another couple of days.
44:53After that, she borrowed their car and headed to Quinn's school.
44:58Half an hour later at the school's entrance,
45:02Justin stood with his hands on his hips as he looked at the ancient gates.
45:06The words Gwyn's martial arts hall were writing on the sign above.
45:10Howard, standing behind him, glanced sideways at Pete with disdain.
45:16He certainly resembles Justin quite a bit.
45:19No matter how hard he tries to mimic him, he's still nothing but a little good for nothing.
45:25His grades are dropping all the time.
45:28Back in our day, Justin was always miles ahead of the rest of us.
45:32Even though Justin's his dad, there's no way Mr. Quinn will look twice at someone like Pete.
45:37You won't be interested in him.
45:39He thought smugly.
45:41He heard footsteps coming towards and quickly stood up straight.
45:45Quinn came out with his hands clasped behind his back.
45:50He didn't look very happy to see Justin.
45:52He asked,
45:53What are you doing here?
45:55Is Irvin dead yet?
45:58Justin bowed respectfully and replied,
46:01Mr. Quinn, I'm not here at my teacher's request this time.
46:04I'd like you to teach my son.
46:06Quinn grimaced.
46:08I'm not interested in your son at.
46:10The words hadn't fully left his mouth when he spotted Pete.
46:14Cherry, he exclaimed in surprise.
46:17Thank you so much for watching.
46:19Don't forget, subscribe to my channel, comment and like.
