Maisie and Charlie used to get along well. As they grew older, Charlie went off to college and later got busy with lab work under his professor. His visits home became rare, and his contact with Maisie gradually dwindled.

Maisie said, “Charlie, your return is the best gift I could ask for. It’s been so long since I last saw you. How long are you staying this time? You’re not leaving again soon, are you?”

Because of his lab work, Charlie was rarely home. The last time Maisie saw him was at Raymond’s birthday party, which

was over six months ago.

Looking at Charlie’s refined and handsome face, Maisie thought he had become even more attractive over the past six months. His skin and clean-cut features gave him an air of quiet elegance.

“I won’t be leaving anytime soon. I’ve taken a position at Eastern General Hospital,” Charlie said with a gentle smile, his expression calm and relaxed.

Charlie glanced at Zinnia and added, “Maisie, Zinnia’s in your class, right? Could you help look out for her?”

“Don’t worry, Charlie! As long as I’m around, I promise no one will bully Zinnia,” Maisie said earnestly.

The school grounds were filling up with students, and as class time approached, Zinnia and Maisie prepared to leave. Zinnia turned to Yannis and said earnestly, “If you’re not feeling well, make sure to let me know, okay?”

She didn’t want anything to happen to Yannis. Jackson would be heartbroken, and she’d feel bad too. Besides, she liked having Yannis around. Just catching a glimpse of him when she was bored could instantly brighten her mood.

Maelis’s call the previous night left Zinnia feeling a bit down. But seeing the stunning Yannis had completely swept away her gloom.

Yannis had been dealing with chronic sleep deprivation, which had taken a toll on his body. His organs were overworked, and if he ever fell ill, recovery wouldn’t come easily.

Zinnia had planned to make some herbal pills for him, but Howard interrupted her, and she never got around to it.

“Alright, I’ll remember your advice,” Yannis said with a warm smile. Then he reached into his suit jacket and pulled out a
