The next day, as soon as Ellie started work, Lacey showed up. Ellie took Lacey to her private other.
“You stayed up most of the night, so why are you here so early?” Ellie pulled up a chair for Lacey to a dom

Lacey hadn't slept well and set an alarm to arrange a twith Mark for his belated birthday exdeturation, only

“Mark’s on a business trip. Didn't he tell you?” Ellie asked with concern. Hearing that Mark wks, skxkkre were
thank with surprise.
Last night, Lacey was so happy that she didn’t even help Mark with packing or seeing him off. She just told him
to e needed anything.
Seeing Lacey suddenly becgloomy, Ellie couldn't help but ask, “Lacey, if you had to pick someone to be
your child's father between Sebastian and Mark, who would you choose?”
Lacey was taken aback by Ellie’s question. After a long pause, she finally said, “I haven't even thought about
this. Why are you asking me, Ellic?”
“Lacey, I'm saying this for your good. Love and marriage are two different things. | hope you choose the right
person? Vie leaned against the desk, facing Lacey sitting in the chair.
Lacey held Ellie's hand, clearly anxious. “Ellie, | know Mark is a good person, and | like him too. But I like him is
different from how | feel about Sebastian.”
Hearing Lacey's determined tone, Ellie sighed, “Lacey, if you're sure, | think you should tell Mark so he knows
you already like someone else.”
“Mark already knows | like Sebastian,” Lacey mumbled, her head drooping.
Ellie was speechless.

Ellie thought, ‘No wonder Mark always indulges Lacey. Even on his birthday, he let her go to Sebastian's concert.
It turns out he always knew Lacey liked Sebastian.
At noon, Ellie was on her way to the lounge for a nap when her mom called her. “Great, Mom! I'll be back
tonight!”
Ellie’s mom said they were getting together to discuss Aaron's wedding details, which made Ellie excited.
But after hanging up, she looked up and saw Alex not far away, and her smile froze.
Ellie hesitated for a moment, but Ellie still greeted him politely, “Mr. Warren.”
Orion still needed to stay in the hospital for a while longer, so running into Alex was inevitable. A polite hello was
the most appropriate distance to maintain.
In the hospital corridor, Alex fixed his gaze on Ellie and walked straight toward her. Ellie stepped aside. As Alex
passed by her, Ellie headed to the lounge.
“Ouch!” Alex suddenly grabbed her arm, hitting the spot where she got hurt last night. Ellie took a sharp breath
from the pain.

“You're hurt!” Alex let go of Ellie’s arm, grabbed her wrist, and tried to pull up her sleeve to check her injury.
“It’s just a scratch, no big deal,” Ellie calmly said as she pulled away from Alex’s grasp. Alex was pushed back,
and the atmosphere becinstantly awkward.
They stood face to face in the corridor, Alex towering over Ellie, watching her expression intently. He moved his
lips and hesitantly said, “Last night, I...”
“Hey, Dr. Zamora,” Ellie greeted a colleague, interrupting Alex as she walked away.
Turning around, Alex watched as Ellie walked and chatted with her colleague, his gaze steady, before he turned
and left.
