Chapter 719: 719: Are You and Daniel Marshall Alright?

After setting up the monitor, the nurse instructed, “If you feel uncomfortable, ring the bell immediately. You can eat after two hours. Once the anesthesia wears off, if you’re in a lot of pain, you can ask the doctor for painkillers.”

Grace Ziegler listened carefully and nodded her head.

The nurse continued, “You’ll also need an intravenous drip. When this bag of fluid runs out, please ring the bell.”

“I understand, thank you, nurse.”

After the nurse left, Victoria returned home.

Aunty Wood suddenly suggested, “Grace, why don’t I keep watch over you tonight? You can go home and rest. Yesterday you were up all night, didn’t shower, and didn’t sleep well. You need to rest. If you keep going like this, your body won’t be able to handle it. Don’t waste money hiring a caretaker. We’re neighbors, we should help each other.”

“…”

Aunty Wood, “Usually, Ella takes care of us like an older sister. She’s very kind. Now she’s going through this, I want to return her kindness. At home, I have Mr. Wood with me, so I can manage.”

Grace hesitated, “Aunty Wood, I don’t want to trouble you.”

“It’s no trouble at all, I have more experience caring for Ella than you do!”

After giving it a thought, Grace said, “Alright then, thank you so much!”

Aunty Wood put on a friendly smile, “You’re welcome!”

At this time, Uncle Wood brought food back and let Grace eat first. He put porridge in a thermos for Ella to eat later.

Seeing their neighbors so eager to help, Ella was deeply touched. It wasn’t just Grace facing everything alone.

There were still good people in this world, not everyone was as despicable as Bella Thompson and her siblings.

Aside from Grace’s father, Ella was also thankful for meeting other good people.

These years living in Binzhou, not setting foot out of Binzhou, and the quiet passage of time, have healed her severely wounded heart.

She only hoped that she could spend the rest of her life in peace.

She also hoped to see Grace find her happiness. This way, when it’s time for her to leave this world, she could rest in peace and feel that she has repaid Grace’s father’s kindness.

Olivia Jenkins walked into COOKIE’s live-streaming office, and she was surprised to see Jordan Bennett watching Abigail Anderson attentively.

It was as if every slight movement of Abigail could pull at all sorts of emotions in Jordan.

“You’re nervous, aren’t you? And worried too?”

Hearing the familiar voice, Jordan refocused his gaze, turned, and looked at Olivia, “You’re here!”

With a faint nod, Olivia sat down next to Jordan, her lips curled up in a light smile, “I heard from Abigail that both of you will be heading back to Nanyang tomorrow. I wish you both a successful journey, and I’m also grateful for your understanding which is why at this moment, I still have such a competent presenter.”

Jordan’s lips curled up slightly. His deep eyes seemed to be sparkling with stars, “I’m already grateful that you don’t blame me for taking your presenter.”

The smile on Olivia’s face grew deeper, her bright apricot eyes squinted, “Congratulations to both of you!”

“Thanks!”

“I didn’t expect things to progress between you two so quickly, fate truly can’t be stopped when it arrives.”

Jordan’s sharp eagle-like eyes fixed on Olivia, his gaze towards her held something to be pondered upon, “How are you and Daniel? What are your plans?”

Parting her lips slightly, Olivia said, “We’re good! We are both very committed to our careers, each busy with our own lives and striving for success. We plan to think about the future next year.”

“Abigail told me you two are thinking of becoming family through marriage. Given that Jenkins Group has stabilized, you could consider having a child.”
