Within the tight confines of the room, Avery persuaded the reluctant old lady, “It's important that your child gets treated. The earlier she's cured, the better. Sarah is still young, so time is of the essence. Also, you should celebrate New Year's Day too.”

The white-haired old lady was moved to tears. “We never expected anyone to help us until you showed up. I'm surprised that there are still kind people in this world. God bless the two of you!”

As the old couple thanked Cayden and Avery repeatedly, Avery quickly stopped them out of embarrassment.

Meanwhile, beside a small bed, Rory stood there for a while before she stuffed her Barbie Doll and monetary gift into Sarah's hands.

While speaking in her adorable voice, one could smell the scent of dairy from her still. “Sarah, this doll is my favorite, but I'm giving it to you. You have to take good care of it. Also, this is the monetary gift my brother and I received from our relatives...”

Thereafter, Rory whispered into Sarah's ear, “Sarah, I'll let you in on a secret. Uncle Kendrick has given me a larger gift this year than Zach because he loves me more! This will be our secret. Now let's make a pinkie promise...”

Rory snuck a subsequent glance at Zachary, thinking that her secret was safe from her brother.

Despite giving Rory a mental eye roll, Zachary maintained a cool facade as he ignored his silly sister.

Meanwhile, Sarah couldn't help but cover her mouth in laughter when she saw how cute the siblings were.

After that, she reciprocated Rory's pinkie promise. “All right. Your secret is safe with me.”

Meeting such a wonderful pair of siblings was her best New Year's gift.

Holding Sarah's hand, Rory blinked with her long doll-like eyelashes as she asked, “Sarah, will we see each other again?”


“We will, Rory. I'll definitely see you again,” Sarah answered without hesitation.

She was fond of the beautiful little girl and hoped to meet the latter again.

Little did she know that the next time they were reunited, it would be under an awkward yet hostile circumstance.

After bidding the old couple farewell, Cayden intended to visit the Yankovich family. However, he received a call from Jacob on his way there.

Over the phone, Jacob's voice seemed to be filled with passion. All he said was that something urgent had come up and that he would need to take a rain check. After that, he ended the call in a hurry.

At the very last second, Cayden overheard a feminine moan in the background.

Nonetheless, he didn't pay any heed to it, as he never liked sticking his nose in the business of others.

Given Jacob's gallivanting nature, Cayden figured that the former must be having a tryst with that confidante of his.

No sooner had he ended the call than he received another one from Xander, who invited him over to the Gibson residence.

Upon obtaining Avery's agreement, Cayden turned the car around and drove to their new destination.

At the Gibson residence, Aaron was lying on a luxurious bed. With one leg cast in plaster, he rested the other one languidly on a table made of pine.

On top of his bare chest lay two stunningly beautiful women.

Both of them called out his name seductively while caressing every inch of his body.

Despite their best efforts, Aaron didn't seem able to get it up.

“Come on, Darling; I want you now!” One of the beauties with fringes blushed as she swayed her body sensuously in front of him.

As for the other who didn't want to lose out, she seduced him with even greater fervor. Unfortunately, all their efforts were nothing but futile.

When they saw what used to be their source of insurmountable pleasure and pain now being rendered limp, their eyes brimmed with disappointment.

“Get lost, you trash!” Aaron roared like a beast as his temper flared abruptly.

He then kicked both women off the bed with his uninjured leg.

With a disheartened look, he wondered what he was going to do.
