The moment Rebecca walked into the hospital room, she saw Jeffrey lying unconscious on the bed. His usually perfect features now looked worn out from all the overtime and late nights, and he was noticeably thinner than before.

At that moment, it was impossible to say she didn’t feel anything.

“Ms. Jensen,” Barry greeted her politely.

“So, what did the doctor say?” Rebecca asked, trying to keep her voice steady.

“They just finished checking him, but we don’t know the results yet,” Barry answered. Remembering today’s divorce and all the drama, he scratched his head awkwardly. “Ms. Jensen, I know it’s a bit much, but I have a request.”

Rebecca looked over at him. “Just say it.”

Barry shot a glance at Jeffrey, pale and silent on the bed, then said, “Seriously, Mr. Hanson didn’t mean to drag things out about the divorce. Please, don’t be too hard on him?”

Rebecca replied with a soft “Mm–hmm.”

Barry’s eyes instantly sparkled. “Really?”

Rebecca confirmed, “Really.”

Barry pressed his hands together dramatically. “From now on, you’re my goddess! If you say east, I’ll never even think about going west.”

Rebecca stayed silent.

About five minutes later, Dr. Johnson walked in, holding the test results.

Everyone’s eyes locked onto him. Gregory stepped forward and asked, “How’s Mr. Hanson?”

“He fainted from exhaustion and not eating properly,” Dr. Johnson explained, then turned to Gregory and added, “No matter how busy work gets, you folks need to remind him to eat. His health is the foundation of everything.”

Gregory’s face was full of question marks.

He looked genuinely puzzled. “Mr. Hanson never misses a meal. How could he possibly be skipping meals?”

Even when they worked late into the night, Gregory would always order him a midnight snack, just in case he got hungry from all the overtime:

Dr. Johnson flipped through the test results again, his brow furrowing. “There’s no way.”
