00:07by buying for me three coffees from the link in the description or in the first comment,
00:12or below the video will get access for all chapters of the book by email.
00:18Episode 82, I Won't Marry You
00:22Sophia stared at Blaine, her face pale.
00:26You? What do you mean?
00:29Blaine smirked. I haven't made myself clear enough. Well, then let me spell it out for you.
00:36Sophia, our engagement is off. I won't marry you.
00:40Sophia clenched her fists, her typically gentle face contorted with rage.
00:46Are you saying you want to break off our engagement?
00:49Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying, Sophia.
00:52You are a cruel, heartless woman.
00:55I would never tie myself to a woman who could do the things you have done to Zoe.
01:00Sophia sneered. Zoe, of course, this is about her.
01:04Blaine, you want to use this opportunity to break off the engagement with me
01:09and then have sex with her? Stop dreaming.
01:13I'll tell your mother about Zoe and what a disgusting and terrible person she is.
01:18Your mother will never accept her. Is that so?
01:22Blaine raised his eyebrows and looked at Sophia's ferocious expression.
01:27He asked coldly, What do you think my mother would do
01:32if she knew that you had viciously attacked her future grandchild?
01:36Would she be concerned about dealing with the child's mother
01:39or the murderer who tried to kill her future grandchild?
01:43Blaine said this to intimidate Sophia because it remained uncertain whether Zoe was carrying his
01:48child. Hearing Blaine's words, Sophia's legs went soft.
01:53She staggered and would have fallen if she hadn't grabbed the back of the chair beside her.
01:58Sophia's face was deathly pale, and the hand holding her bag was shaking.
02:03At that moment, she felt only terror and unwillingness.
02:08Sophia had experienced Catherine Dexter's expectations for her children
02:12before she knew what kind of a vicious woman Blaine's mother was,
02:16and Sophia's parents had been wary of Catherine from the start.
02:20They had heard whispers from well-placed sources that even Blaine's father,
02:25a powerful United States senator, had been on the receiving end of his wife's wrath over rumored
02:31indiscretions. What would Catherine say about their broken engagement? Would she blame Sophia
02:38and target her? Blaine wasn't even giving Sophia a chance to plead her case.
02:44She didn't even have the opportunity to fight back. Blaine's only concession to Sophia,
02:49and solely out of respect for her parents, was that he allowed Sophia to seemingly be the one
02:55to call off the engagement. Blaine forced her to call her parents in front of him
03:00so he could witness her asking them to cancel the engagement.
03:04Sophia's parents refused, at first not believing she was serious.
03:10Sophia had been forced to cry and pretend until they had reluctantly promised to call off the
03:15wedding, while Blaine listened. Sophia didn't know how she got out of Blaine's house. She bit
03:21her lower lip as she thought about what had happened inside Zoe. This was all because of
03:26that woman, Sophia thought bitterly. Her heart filled with unwillingness and jealousy. Tears
03:33welled up in Sophia's eyes, and as she cried, she suddenly burst into evil laughter. Did Zoe
03:40think Sophia would let her have Blaine if she couldn't? The woman was dreaming. Sophia would
03:46make it so that Zoe would never have the chance to be with Blaine in this life. She could forget
03:52about touching what Sophia couldn't have. When Blaine's parents received the news,
03:57the Quincy family was calling off the engagement. The entire Dexter family exploded. Blaine's phone
04:04was going off non-stop with incoming texts and calls. Blaine was in an unprecedentedly good mood
04:10and picked up every single one of his mother's calls with great patience. Early the following
04:15day, Blaine pulled into the hospital's parking lot just as his phone rang. Seeing it was his
04:21mother calling again, he got out of the car and answered,
04:24Mom, yes, tell me. Blaine replied, listening patiently to his mother's rant. Mom, this marriage
04:33just wasn't meant to be. Miss Quincy and I are just not destined to be together. Don't be angry.
04:40I might find you an even better daughter-in-law. Mom, I can't talk anymore. I have a patient.
04:47Goodbye. Blaine found a random excuse to disconnect the call and hurriedly hung up.
04:54He locked his car and walked into the hospital, heading directly to Zoe's room. Dr. Dexter,
05:00good morning. It's not time for work yet. Along the way, the doctors and nurses of the
05:06overnight shift greeted Blaine. He was in an exceptionally good mood. Blaine couldn't remember
05:12the last time he had felt so relaxed. He wanted to share this feeling with Zoe. Blaine didn't
05:18knock on the door, thinking Zoe was still asleep. He gently pushed open the door to her room.
05:25However, when he saw the bed, Blaine stopped in his tracks. Zoe wasn't in bed. There was no trace
05:32of her ever having been in the room. The bedding was freshly made in preparation for the room's
05:38next occupant. There was no sign of Zoe's phone, purse, or any of her other belongings. Nothing.
05:46There was no trace of the woman. Blaine's face, which was bright a moment ago, sank.
05:52He walked to the nurse's station and asked the nurse on duty,
05:56Where's the patient? In room 503. Zoe Fuller. Dr. Dexter, your friend went through the
06:04discharge procedures with Dr. Summers late last night. Didn't she tell you? Blaine's gaze turned
06:11cold at the mention of Dr. Summers. Dr. Matthew Summers had discharged Zoe. Blaine nodded. Okay.
06:20Thank you. With that, he turned around and left to do his rounds, as Blaine approached the IQ
06:26to check on Zoe's mother. He saw Ziva sitting outside in the hall. Mrs. Fuller had just finished
06:33her surgery, and her body's resistance was still weak. Ziva had to remain in the hallway since only
06:39the medical staff was allowed inside. Dr. Dexter, Ziva eyes lit up when she saw Blaine walk over
06:48in his white coat. She hurriedly stood up and walked towards him. Dr. Dexter, I didn't have the
06:54chance to thank you for helping my mom. On last night. Yesterday, I waited for you outside your
07:00office for a long time, but I never saw you. Then I heard from Dr. Ramirez that you had already left.
07:08Ziva's eyes couldn't conceal a slight regret, the lost opportunity to interact with Blaine.
07:14Why don't I treat you to a meal as my thanks to you? She bravely invited him, her bright eyes
07:20sparkling with anticipation. Blaine tilted his head and looked at Ziva. The resemblance between
07:27Zoe and her sister was subtle. Their coloring was the same, but otherwise Blaine saw few similarities
07:34between the siblings. That won't be necessary. I was just doing my job, but thank you for the offer.
07:41Blaine's expression remained indifferent. He wanted to be polite since she was Zoe's little sister,
07:47but did not want to encourage her. Seeing Ziva smile dimmed a bit, Blaine changed the subject.
07:55Have you been here all night? Where's your sister? My sister went to see my nephew. Ziva replied,
08:03oh yeah, Dr. Dexter doesn't know my sister has a son, do you? Hard to believe, right?
08:09She looks too young to be a mother, Blaine replied blandly. I hadn't noticed. After saying that,
08:17Blaine pushed open the door and went into the IQ to check on Mrs. Fuller. Ziva watched nervously
08:23through the small window in the door. After 15 minutes, Blaine walked back out of the IQ.
08:30Dr. Dexter, how is my mom? Ziva hurriedly went up to him and asked. The initial stage of her
08:37recovery seems to be going well. The staff said she had a peaceful night. Blaine took off his mask
08:44and threw it into the medical recovery barrel beside him. He noticed the dark circles under
08:49his eyes, and he couldn't help but say, actually, your family doesn't need to be here all the time.
08:55You should take this chance to rest. Since visitors aren't allowed inside the IQ,
09:00patients are carefully observed 24 hours a day, so there's no reason to worry. Ziva's heart felt
09:07like she was drinking warm honey. His words were so thoughtful. The corner of Ziva's mouth curled
09:14up into an affectionate smile. She said shyly, Dr. Dexter, thank you for your concern,
09:21but it doesn't matter. I will be more at ease here. Blaine didn't say anything else.
09:28There was no expression on his handsome face. He nodded at her and walked away.
09:34Ziva's smile became even wider as she watched him leave. Her heart was thumping nonstop.
09:41Ziva knew she hadn't misinterpreted Dr. Dexter's intentions just now. He was worried about her.
09:47When Blaine walked into Max's hospital room later that afternoon, Zoe thought she was hallucinating.
09:53She never expected Blaine to appear so unexpectedly in her son's room. Blaine walked in
10:00and placed a big box of toys on the table beside him, as if it was the most natural thing in the
10:05world. He tucked his hand into a silver-gray Armani suit pocket and took in Zoe's stunned
10:11expression. You? Why are you here? Zoe stared at him blankly, unable to recover from her shock.
10:20Blaine raised his eyebrows and didn't answer. He turned his attention to Max,
10:25who was sleeping soundly, and his cold gaze couldn't help but soften.
10:30Zoe walked closer to Blaine so she could whisper. Why are you here? Why aren't you at work? Blaine
10:37shifted his gaze to her pretty face. The redness and swelling had subsided quite a bit. He raised
10:44his eyebrows. I just got off work and came to see him. Why did you bring him presents? You'll spoil
10:51him. He has barely had the chance to play with the toys you gave him for his birthday. Zoe scolded.
10:57Zoe scolded. Blaine didn't reply. Instead, he reached out his hand to pull Zoe away from Max's
11:05bed, then forcefully turned her body to face him. Who told you to leave the hospital on your own?
11:12Zoe blinked, and a trace of guilt flickered in her blue eyes. Was this why Blaine had come here?
11:18She bit her lower lip nervously, knowing she was in the wrong. Sorry I didn't tell you in advance.
11:25Yes. Why? Tell me when you can ask your ex-husband to pick you up. Blaine's grip on Zoe's arm
11:32unconsciously tightened. Zoe's eyebrows rose slightly as she tried to squirm out of his
11:37tight grip. She tried her best to explain. I guess you wouldn't let me leave the hospital.
11:44So I called Matthew last night. My wrist is injured, so he drove me here. Blaine's eyes
11:51flashed. He relaxed his grip on her slightly, but his expression remained tense. You knew I
11:58wouldn't allow it. So you deliberately went behind my back. Is that what you're telling me? Well,
12:04aye. Zoe said before giving up. She didn't try to deny it. Blaine snorted and looked at her
12:12bandaged wrist, and his scowl grew. Did you change the dressing? Yes. Matthew came over this morning
12:19to help me change it. Zoe answered without thinking. Blaine's eyes glimmered dangerously,
12:26and his face quickly darkened. He couldn't help but ridicule. So you also asked Dr. Summers for
12:32help with this. I see. Zoe noticed his displeasure and rolled her eyes slightly. She gave him a funny
12:40look. Blaine, do you know that it's easy for people to mistake your words as you being jealous?
12:47She gave him back a taste of his taunting from yesterday. Blaine's eyes flashed as he looked
12:52into Zoe's pretty blue eyes and said, I'm jealous. So what? Zoe didn't expect him to admit it so
13:00readily. She choked on her words until she didn't know what to say. She blushed to blushed and
13:06averted her eyes. Zoe didn't dare to look at him anymore and could only awkwardly push the hair
13:13on her forehead to the back of her head. Blaine, don't joke with me. Blaine smirked and raised his
13:20eyebrows. Since you think I'm joking, why are you blushing? Zoe pressed her hands to her cheeks,
13:27a little embarrassed. Why did he have to make her blush so easily? Before Zoe could reply,
13:33she felt something tightened around her waist as Blaine grabbed her and pulled her into his
13:38embrace. She glanced at her sleeping son, her right hand pushing at Blaine's chest.
13:44What are you doing? Don't be reckless. My son is right there. Do you know what your son told me?
13:52Blaine didn't make any move to let go of Zoe, but instead pressed her closer until she couldn't move.
13:58His hot breath caressed her cheek and she could smell his masculine scent.
14:04It was sexy and seductive and it caused Zoe to feel dazed. What did Max say? She asked him,
14:12blinking and breathing heavily. Blaine smirked. He said he wanted me to marry his mom.
14:19Episode 83. A Day Out with Dr. Dexter. Zoe turned her head to look at her sleeping son
14:26as Blaine tightly embraced her. She had been concerned that Max might see the two of them
14:32together, but apparently Max had been matchmaking behind her back. Did he really say you should
14:38marry me? Zoe asked. Yep. Right from our first meeting, obviously you've raised the child to
14:47have good taste. Not that I agreed to anything, mind you. Blaine smirked. Zoe snorted. Great.
14:57My son is a traitor trying to marry me off. Although Zoe scolded Max on the surface,
15:03her eyes were filled with unconcealed love when she looked at her son. Did either of you think
15:08of consulting me? Don't you think I should have some say in the matter? I mean, I should at least
15:14get first right of refusal on any matchmaking. Zoe wrinkled her nose. Blaine didn't get angry.
15:22Instead, he pulled her closer and nipped her neck before sucking on it playfully.
15:28Hey, hey, what are you doing? Don't give me a hickey. Zoe hissed and tried to pull away.
15:35You're crazy. My son is still here. What if he sees us? She remarked.
15:42Mommy, it's okay. I don't see anything. I'm sleeping.
15:47Max's voice came from the bed. He pinched his little eyes close tightly and pretended to snore.
15:54Zoe didn't know whether to laugh or cry as she looked between the two co-conspirators.
15:59She pushed Blaine away with a blush and walked towards her son's bed.
16:04Darling, did mommy wake you up? The little guy saw that he had failed to convince her he was
16:10asleep, so he tentatively opened his big eyes. He looked apologetically at Blaine,
16:17standing at the end of his bed. Blaine couldn't help but laugh. He walked up to Max and sat on
16:24the edge of his bed. Blaine looked at him with a gentle smile and asked,
16:28Have you been a good boy for your mommy? Are you eating and sleeping well? Blaine probed the
16:34little guy's forehead with his large palm as he spoke. Then he gently pried open his eyelids and
16:40carefully examined the little guy's pupils. As expected of a doctor, he couldn't help but check
16:46up on Max. Max eats big mouthfuls so I can get stronger. Then I'll be able to take care of mommy,
16:54Max told Blaine proudly. Zoe smiled but couldn't help but feel slightly sad.
16:59Due to Max's illness, his body was thinner than an average child's. Zoe. Suddenly Blaine raised
17:06his head and called her name. Yes, Zoe looked down at him suspiciously. You should take Max
17:14out of the hospital for the day, he suddenly suggested. What? Zoe was stunned. When Max heard
17:21this, he suddenly sat up and looked at Blaine expectantly, his big blue eyes filled with
17:27excitement and anticipation. Max had been in the hospital for nearly a year and never went
17:33anywhere outside the hospital complex. Take him out for a day of fun, Blaine repeated. Zoe looked
17:40at Blaine with a troubled expression, then at Max. His hopeful face. She was growing a little anxious,
17:48looking at her son's expectant gaze. She couldn't bear to disappoint him, but his disease-ravaged
17:54body was so fragile. If Max weren't careful and got an infection, the consequences would be severe.
18:01Zoe felt cruel, saying no, but she was worried and bit her lower lip, anxiously telling Blaine,
18:08you are a doctor. Do you think that's a good idea? Don't make things difficult for yourself.
18:15Blaine had risen from the bed and now stood in front of her. He reached out to stop Zoe from
18:20biting her lip. Zoe blushed at his sudden gentleness, and when she looked at her son,
18:26who was staring at them like a curious baby on the bed, her face reddened even more. Believe me,
18:33I'm a doctor. Taking Max out to play for a day would be good for him. A dose of sunshine is as
18:39good as any dose of medicine. Their environment can affect a person's health. It won't cure an
18:46illness. But a little freedom and fun can bring a patient renewed hope and energy that far outweighs
18:53the small risk involved, he explained. Zoe had to admit that what Blaine said made sense.
19:00She believed there was truth in the connection between someone's body and mind. Tomorrow, then,
19:06it's the weekend, so I'll go with you. Blaine sat back down on the little guy's bed
19:12and tussled his hair affectionately. Zoe was surprised by Blaine's offer. She hadn't thought
19:18he'd meant he'd like to join them. You want to go with us? We don't want to bother you on your day
19:24off. Zoe felt a little embarrassed. Of course I want to go. And since I'm a doctor, mommy can
19:32relax and not worry since I'll be there. Blaine winked at Max as he said this. Besides, you need
19:39my help. Blaine glanced pointedly at Zoe's sprained wrist. Zoe laughed. Okay, you win, Blaine.
19:47Thank you. What are we going to do? Max asked Blaine as he bounced on the bed with excitement.
19:55Blaine leaned over and said to Max in a staged whisper, We're going to take mommy on a date.
20:01So he stammered in shock. Blaine, don't teach my son nonsense. How is that nonsense? Blaine climbed
20:10up smoothly and asked her, He's responsible for marrying his mother off, isn't he? Zoe scoffed.
20:18You wish. After saying this, Zoe turned away and went to the water dispenser to get some water.
20:25As she drank the water, a faint smile was on her lips. When it was time for Blaine to leave,
20:31Zoe went to see him off. Where do you want to go tomorrow? Blaine asked Zoe as the two walked out
20:38side by side. So he shook her head. I don't know where to go. The temperatures are still unusually
20:45cold and I don't want to go anywhere where there are too many people. She replied. Blaine stopped
20:52and frowned, telling her in all seriousness. Zoe, your son is not as weak as you think,
20:58but he's not strong either. Zoe replied sadly. Blaine raised his eyebrows. Maybe he's much
21:06stronger than you think. Even though he's sick, you don't have to treat him like fragile glass.
21:12By doing so, you're telling Max he's not like other children. It's as if you are reminding him
21:17daily that he's a patient and a very fragile patient at that. So delicate that he might
21:23leave at any moment. It won't help his illness. Blaine thought he would never forget Max staring
21:29into the aquarium tank as he asked Blaine which little fish could outlive him. What Blaine said
21:36immediately made Zoe's eyes misty. I don't want to make him feel that way. But what can I do?
21:42I'm so petrified of losing him that I don't dare do anything that might cause that to happen.
21:48As his mother, I'm willing to give up everything for him. I'm just trying to keep him by my side
21:55as long as possible, even if it's just for another minute, another second longer.
22:01As Zoe finished, she burst into tears. Blaine reached out and pulled her into his arms.
22:07I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you feel bad. Zoe shook her head and sobbed. I'm not blaming
22:14you. I'm too cautious. I don't want to be the cause of Max losing hope. Blaine held her tighter
22:21in his arms and kissed the top of her head. Let's go to the winter festival tomorrow.
22:27Max will like it. All right, Zoe agreed, still buried in his arms. Thank you.
22:35For the first time, Zoe felt like the three of them were a family. It was also the first time
22:41she realized just how much she and Max had lost by not having Blaine in their lives.
22:47Zoe never realized until now how valuable it was to have Blaine's opinion and his shoulder to cry
22:54on while dealing with Max's illness. It was such a relief to Zoe's tired soul. Zoe wished Max could
23:01grow up with this fine man as his father. However, Zoe didn't even dare to think about such a future.
23:09The three of them set out early the next day, and Max was ecstatic. This was the first time
23:15the little fellow had played in the snow. Dr. Dexter, this place is super pretty.
23:23Blaine carried Max on his broad shoulders. He raised one arm and held on to Max tightly as
23:28he walked, step by step, into the deepest part of the snow garden. The winter festival usually
23:34solely relied on man-made snow, but this year the added natural snowfall had brought the crowds out
23:42and the park was filled with families. Zoe followed behind them happily. When she looked up,
23:49she could see Blaine's mountain-like back as the little guy lowered his head and leaned close to
23:54his father's ear to whisper to him. The two of them seemed to be discussing something important.
24:01Then Zoe heard the sound of Max's laughter. That was all it took. Zoe started crying.
24:08Zoe stood rooted to the spot in a daze as she looked at the scene before her
24:13with a slightly lustful expression. This was how things should be between a father and his son.
24:20So he wished she could make time, stand still and stay in this moment forever.
24:25Mommy, why aren't you coming? Suddenly, Max turned around and called out to Zoe,
24:32who had stopped in the snow. Blaine also turned around and looked meaningfully at the crying.
24:38Zoe hurriedly wiped her tears away and shook her head, laughing at herself. She then ran towards
24:45them. Coming as soon as she walked to their side, she felt blind arm wrap around her waist.
24:52Zoe raised her head to look at him and gently patted the hand at her waist.
24:56Mm, we probably shouldn't. Hush, Blaine ordered, his tone arrogant quickly giving up.
25:04Zoe obediently let him wrap his arm around her waist as they walked.
25:08She heard Blaine ask her in a low voice. Why were you crying just now? Zoe didn't
25:14know how to reply. It's just I've never seen Max so happy. I got emotional.
25:20Thank you for bringing us here, Zoe told him sincerely.
25:24Blaine didn't say anything, only tightening the arm around her waist in response.
25:30Max smiled even brighter as he looked at Dr. Dexter and his mommy together.
25:34Blaine couldn't take his eyes off Zoe while she skated in the ice rink.
25:39He watched slightly in awe as she spread her arms and seemed to float across the ice. Her fresh,
25:45smiling face and musical laughter were like a siren song calling out to Blaine.
25:51Her graceful body was like the wind as she swept past him repeatedly.
25:56Each time she passed Blaine, his mind became more clouded. He couldn't help but stretch out his hand
26:02to stop Zoe. The next time she flew past him, Zoe blinked and smiled, revealing her white teeth.
26:09What do you want to play with me? The smile at the corner of her mouth was pure and innocent.
26:16Zoe's eyes sparkled with happiness. Just looking at her made Blaine's heart surge with emotion.
26:22Blaine stared at her with burning eyes. His chest rose and fell as he took a deep breath to calm
26:29himself. Are you trying to tempt me, Zoe? Zoe was surprised by the sudden heat in Blaine's eyes.
26:36With a blushing face, she glared at him and glanced at Max, who was sitting by Blaine's feet
26:41as he concentrated on licking his snow cone. She shyly pushed Blaine's chest.
26:46Let go of me. Blaine pulled her closer while, with his other hand, he gripped Zoe's chin,
26:53raising it arrogantly. Then… Without another word, Blaine passionately kissed Zoe right there
27:01in the middle of the crowded festival where anyone could see them, including Max, who beamed with
27:06happiness, and the woman on the other side of the ice rink, who looked anything but happy.
27:12Thank you so much for watching.
