Layton was nearly choked to death by Alex’s casual remark! He grabbed a pen from his desk and pointed it at Alex, “Can you speak like a normal person? Are you cooking up some scheme again?!”

Alex, standing by the wine cabinet with his back to Layton, leisurely poured himself a drink. “What do you think?”

In frustration, Layton tossed the pen onto the desk, and in a twist of fate, it bounced back and hit him right on the forehead, leaving a gash that made him yelp in pain.

Twenty minutes later at Jaslands Hospital, Layton entered Ellie’s consultation room, holding a registration slip. He saw Ellie sitting there, her expression unchanged as she assessed the wound on his forehead. Layton’s face darkened as he took a seat.

“This little issue doesn’t even warrant a specialist. Just get some scar cream from a regular clinic,” Ellie said. Despite her words, she still followed protocol and prescribed medicine for Layton.

Once the prescription was ready, Layton didn’t leave. He stared at Ellie and asked, “Do you know about Alex’s potential marriage with the York family?”

Ellie averted her gaze. After all, Nalani lived in the Thompson residence; she definitely knew.

Noticing that Ellie had shown no reaction, Layton looked at her with an expression that screamed annoyance. “You seriously have… absolutely no feelings about him at all?”
