“That’s why I have to approach her as Chloe Blackwood and conceal my identity as Mrs. Fox, Melinda said. She then asked. “Do you have any experiences to share about her injuries?”
That was her purpose for visiting him.
“If given enough time, I can heal her, but she lacks patience herself.” Taylor replied. “Ultimately, it’s a matter of distrust toward people.”
“She must be very pessimistic. The chances of healing extensive burns are not high, and she must’ve searched online.” Melinda’s tone carried a hint of regret. “Healing such old wounds is not something that can be resolved in minutes; it’s a difficult process.”
“She can be harmful when she’s emotionally unstable, Taylor reminded. “She’s disillusioned, which is why every balcony above the second floor in Repulse Bay has safety nets installed.”
While the master and disciple were exchanging experiences, Stanley, dressed crisply and looking breathtaking, sat in his office chair inside the simple but luxurious CEO’s office of the Fox Group. As he set aside the document in his hands, Melina came to his mind subconsciously.
Why did she wake up so early? Where did she go?
Mixed emotions surged within Stanley as he recollected the shallow, almost non-existent kiss from that night.
Is she sympathizing with me, or does she like me?
For some reason, Stanley, who had never been distracted at work before, found himself daydreaming about Melinda lately.

In reality, this was something that his assistant, Lydia, could have done. Monica didn’t need to personally
come over.
Stanley took a plain gander at her, reviewed the document, and finally signed his name at the bottom of the page.
The entire time, Monica looked at him with deep affection, wishing that time would slow down so that she could spend more time with him and enjoy the
peace.
Stanley, on the other hand, found her lost in thought when he handed her the signed document.
Their gazes met again, and she asked with a smile while taking the document, “Is your stomach feeling better? With her by your side, can you eat normally now?”
Has He Fallen in Love With Her?
“What kind of answer do you want to hear?” Stanley frowned.
Caught off guard by his response, Monica felt his gaze pierce through her like a sword.
“You’ve lost your cool, do you know that?” Monica said calmly, swallowing her heartache. “You’d at least treat me as a business partner in the past, and you were never this cold.”
She continued, “During my time abroad, we would talk on the phone every week. We’d discuss work and care about each other, but now, I haven’t even done anything, yet you treat me like an enemy!”
“I just don’t want any unnecessary misunderstandings,” Stanley stated frankly. “I was a bachelor back then. but I’m married now.” NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
Anger surged within Monica at once, and she was at a loss for words.
Stanley’s gaze hardened, and coldness flickered in his eyes as he ignored her.
Disregarding his demeanor. Monica turned around with the document and left.
A black Volvo parked itself in the yard of Repulse Bay, and Taylor stepped out of the driver’s seat, holding a folder in his hand as he walked toward the living room.
Ten minutes later, Jennifer finished reading all relevant information about Chloe Blackwood. Despite her young age, she had become a renowned master pharmacist and remained remarkably low-key. She had extensive research on burns….
Taylor noticed that her expression hadn’t changed, and it looked as if she were looking at a pile of blank
paper.
