But he was determined to repair their father??on relationship.
When Cora came downstairs, they had finished most of their breakfast and had discussed Martin’s upcoming schooling.
In the morning light, Byron wore the slightly wrinkled shirt from last night but didn’t look disheveled.
His inherent sense of superiority made him seem like a host even when sitting at the dining table as a guest, and it was hard to ignore him.
Byron said,
“Let Martin continue attending Sunflower Kindergarten. I’ve already changed the principal and will ensure that the next one is a person of good character not to affect the children’s well??eing.”
Arnold agreed with him. With Byron personally overseeing this, he felt more at ease.
William also agreed. After preparing some vegetable salad for Martin, he said,
“That’s good, but I suggest installing surveillance cameras in various corners of the kindergarten. Even if some teachers have bad intentions, they will think twice before mistreating the children if they know they’re being monitored.”
“That’s a good suggestion. I’ll have Carter take care of it,”
Byron said.
He seemed to notice something, so he looked in Cora’s direction.
When their eyes met, Byron’s gaze softened.
“Have you wokenup?”
Byron’s words drew the attention of William and the others to Cora.
Cora felt somewhat awkward.
She felt like she had just integrated into the Yoris family, and she and Byron hadn’t remarried yet, but he had spent the night at her place.
Luckily, no one in the Yoris family acted strangely.
Sara quickly got up and went to the kitchen.
“I’ll bring you some hot soup. I just made it this morning. It’s good to have it on an empty stomach before anything else.”
William continued to feed Martin, saying,
“Don’t worry, I’ll make sure Martin is well??ed.”
Arnold added,
“I found some herbal supplements. If you go to the hospital later, I’ll pass them on to you.”
When she chatted with Arnold about a cancer patient’s complex condition, Cora casually mentioned it. She hadn’t Tep 682 True Family expected Arnold to remember it and find it for her.However, this kind of herbal was hard to find, so the best results were not yet achieved.
Surprisingly, Arnold remembered that and managed to find it for her.
Feeling warm inside, she nodded in appreciation.
Thankfully, none of her family teased or scolded her.
That was what it felt like to have a true family.
As Cora took her seat, Byron quietly held her hand.
“Is there anywhere uncomfortable?”
Cora glared at him annoyedly and whispered,
“Do you even have the audacity to ask me?”
She wouldn’t have ended up in this awkward situation if it weren’t for him.
When Cora glared at him, Byron sensed a tenderness in her gaze, like the warmth and affection in a caring embrace.
He would have wanted to kiss her if she weren’t so shy.
Two days went by in a flash.
When Cora took Martin to kindergarten, she felt like someone was watching them from behind.
But when she turned around, there was no one there.
As Martin was about to enter the kindergarten, Cora kept glancing behind them, and he tugged at her hand.
Looking into Martin’s puzzled eyes, Cora explained,
“Mommy felt like someone was watching us just now.”
Martin followed the direction Cora had been observing and shook his head.
“No? Then it must have been my imagination.”
Cora gently touched Martin’s shoulder to reassure him and then told him seriously,
“When you finish school, you must wait for me, Daddy, or Grandma to pick you up before you can go home, okay?”
Martin nodded.
At that moment, Seraphina, Martin’s teacher, came out to receive Martin.
Martin happily waved at Cora before following Seraphina into the kindergarten.
Cora waited until Martin’s figure disappeared at the gate before turning to leave.
However, just as she was leaving, Flora walked out from behind the tree that Cora had been watching earlier, her gaze filled with evil intent as she stared toward the kindergarten.
Cora administered the last dose of medication to her patients at the hospital.
“After completing this course of treatment, they should all berecovered.”
As Cora looked through the examination reports for the patients, she said.
The nurse smiled and said,
“Six patients have cleared their blood stasis. The CT scans show that the lesions have healed.”
Although medical professionals were accustomed to life and death, they were still happy to see the patients recovering from their suffering.
“The remaining patient should also clear their blood stasis in the next two days.”
After skimming through the examination reports, Cora was about to leave the hospital to check on the progress of the renovation of the medical clinic.
Unexpectedly, just as she left the hospital, she received a call from Flora.
Cora had blocked Flora’s number long ago, so she must havecalled from a new one.
“Hello, who is this?”
Cora couldn’t hear any response for a long time and was about to hang up the call.
Finally, the person on the other end spoke,
“Cora, it’s me.”
Hearing that familiar voice, Cora felt a chill run down her spine.
It wasn’t fear of Flora but an instinctive aversion.
“I don’t think we can have any relationship, even a phone call,”
Cora said.
She didn’t want to see Flora again or hear her voice.
Every time she interacted with her, and it reminded her of the pain she had experienced in those years.
After saying this, she was about to hang up the phone.
But Flora raised her voice and shouted,
“I just want you to do me a favor!”
“You have no right to ask me to do anything for you.”
For the first time in her life, Cora despised someone so much.
Flora had done terrible things to her, yet she always acted as if she were entitled and as if Cora owed her something.
“Why not? I admit I treated you badly, but at least I raised you.
You may owe your life to me, but I don’t owe you much!”
Cora had to control her anger by asking,
“What do you want me to do for you?”
“Save Jane! She’s still young, and her best years shouldn’t be wasted in prison.”
Cora snorted,
“She shamelessly plagiarized someone else’s work and caused the deaths of many people. Her best years shouldn’t be wasted, but she can ruin the lives of others.
Spending the rest of her life in prison lets her off lightly.”
Flora’s voice became harsh.
“So you don’t want to help me save Jane?”
Cora wanted to hang up the phone right away.
Of course, she didn’t want to save Jane. Wasn’t that obvious?
But just as she was about to hang up, Flora’s voice returned.
“Then don’t you want to see your son again?”
“What did you say?”
Cora’s heart skipped a beat.
“Your son has been kidnapped. You’ll never see him again if you don’t comply with my demands,”
Flora said.
“No, it’s impossible for Martin to be with you.”
