Chapter 1020 Hearing the man's strong and powerful voice, Sylvia felt a warmth in her heart. The needle in her hand almost went off course.
She rarely lost her composure like this, but hearing his confession, even though she wasn't by his side and couldn't hear him directly, he still said it.
This showed that in his heart, no one could ever replace her.
His love was not a performance, nor was it a pretense. It was genuine.
Warmth slowly spread through her heart, making her eyes well up with tears.
She quickly composed herself, pretending not to have heard Franklin's words, and continued with the acupuncture.
Franklin sensitively noticed that today's acupuncture session seemed to be two minutes later than usual.
He couldn't help but wonder, "Is today's acupoint difficult to find?" Sylvia didn't expect him to notice such a small detail. She immediately lowered her voice and said, "No, it's just that my hands are a bit cold today.' She said nothing more and sat quietly on the sofa, waiting.
The doctor noticed the heavy atmosphere in the room. Usually, he would talk a lot, mostly asking Sylvia about medical issues. But today, he wisely kept silent.
From tto time, he would secretly observe Jasper's expression or Franklin's face.
Oh my! Who would have thought? Mr. Maskelyne is quite the devoted lover.
He insists on being faithful to his wife and refuses to meet even someone as prominent as Lara.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLara is very famous, known as the top socialite of Aettosa. Her father is Donald, and her uncle is Louis.
Thirty years ago, the top socialite was Secretary of State Lucille, but after she married the president's brother, she becthe First Lady.
For many years, the title of top socialite remained vacant until Lara cof age and claimed it.
After all, Lara is beautiful, highly educated, and comes from a strong family background. It's said that Donald can't live without her and dotes on her immensely.
The entire Fox family's oil empire is set to be inherited by her. Louis never married and has no children.
Lara is a child from a collateral branch of the Fox family. It's said that her parents saved Donald's life years ago but later died in a car accident. Donald adopted Lara as his daughter. Though she is called an adopted daughter, she is Donald's only legitimate heir. She is truly the little princess of the Fox family! Many young nobles and talented men want to date Lara and win her favor. But Mr. Maskelyne refused her.
Just the wealth behind Lara is enough to make anyone envious! The doctor could only think these thoughts to himself; he dared not express them out loud.
He has a wife? Named Sylvia? It sounds nice.
But what kind of person is she? Half an hour passed quickly. After removing the needles around Franklin's eyes, Sylvia advised, "Your vision will becclearer. You might feel uncomfortable with the brightness at first. Don't force yourself or be anxious. In a few days, you'll fully recover." "Thank you," Franklin said, his eyes still clouded with an indescribable mist.
Looking at his familiar handsface, Sylvia's almond-shaped eyes filled with gentle affection.
He will get better! She would cure him! Restore his sight! She took one last deep look at him, reluctantly packed up her medical kit, and left.
Jasper immediately said, "Master Franklin, I'll see the doctors out." He followed Sylvia out.
"Doctor, I want to speak with you alone for a moment.' The other doctor didn't suspect anything and thought Jasper wanted to consult Sylvia about Franklin's condition. He wisely went downstairs alone.
Jasper looked around to make sure no one was paying attention to him and Sylvia before speaking in a low voice that only they could hear. "The president wants to form an alliance with the Fox family through marriage. Lara once saw the young master at a banquet and fell in love at first sight. Miss Andrews, rest assured, the young master will not change his heart." Sylvia nodded. "I believe him. Take good care of him. If anything happens, let Evie inform me." "Alright." Jasper nodded. "Miss Andrews, take care." Sylvia turned and left.
With every step she took, she vowed that one day she would stand by his side as an equal! Not like now, sneaking around for half an hour just to see him for a few moments.
The doctor was playing on his phone downstairs. When he saw her coming down, he immediately followed her out of the small building.
As their car passed by the Kaur family group's building, they saw many parents and franchisees gathered at the entrance with banners and loudspeakers, protesting loudly.
The English training institution had long closed down. Unable to find Mrs. Kaur, they decided to protest at the Kaur family group's headquarters for their rights.
They even brought reporters and contacted TV stations.
Many other journalists also cto cover the story because Mrs. Kaur's identity made it particularly newsworthy. She is the chairman's wife of the Kaur family group.
Everyone thought the Kaur family group couldn't escape responsibility for this incident.
Sintecelebrities were live-streaming from the scene.
"Fans, look! This is the Kaur family group's building. But we haven't seen Mrs. Kaur or anyone from the Kaur family group cout to respond." "Oh my gosh! There are so many parents and franchisees here seeking justice." "I really sympathize with them." As the intecelebrity was live-streaming passionately, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd. "Mr. Kaur is coming out!" "Everyone ask him for money!" Almost everyone rushed towards Oakley. His driver and assistant quickly shielded him.
But the parents were too emotional, almost hysterical.
"Oakley Kaur, you must give us an explanation!" "That's our hard-earned money!" "Give us our money back!" "The Kaur family is such a big company; why won't you refund our tuition fees?" "You coward!" "Heartless businessman!" "Get your wife out here!" Someone in the crowd threw rotten eggs at Oakley, hitting him despite his assistant and driver trying to protect him.
Oakley was furious but knew better than to say anything in this situation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Refund our money!" "Refund our money!" The parents shouted in unison like madmen.
Reporters rushed forward to interview Oakley directly. "Mr. Kaur, has the Kaur family group becso poor that it can't even refund this money?" "Why is Mrs. Kaur so heartless?" "What do you think about marrying such a heartless woman? Or is the entire Kaur family heartless?" Chapter 1020 1 Oakley felt like strangling Mrs. Kaur but could do nothing about it.
All financial power was in his son Dariel's hands; he had nothing himself.
What could he do? He was furious! Sylvia watched this scene from inside her car and observed Oakley's face. She sneered, "This man married trouble; he'll suffer for it." The doctor curiously looked at Sylvia and then back at Oakley. "You can read faces?" Sylvia turned her gaze back to the doctor. "You have scleverness and good luck. You'll live a peaceful and successful life as long as you don't bectoo greedy." Unfortunately, this doctor loved small gains.
But no one is perfect.
The doctor looked at her half-believingly. "Really? Are you joking?" He suspected Sylvia might be a fraudster.
Sylvia started the car again. "I'm not joking." She had recently been studying hard to improve herself and could now roughly read people's faces-accurate about seventy to eighty percent of the tif not more.
"That's great! I don't seek great wealth; I already have three properties and two cars. My kids are doing well in school and will surely get into good universities." The doctor laughed happily.
Who doesn't like hearing good things? Sylvia ignored him and thought about Carley.
The trouble at the Kaur family group was karma coming full circle.
Mrs. Kaur had brought this upon herself with her misdeeds.
At that moment, Mrs. Kaur finally met Lady Sweeney. She almost knelt before her. "Lady Sweeney, please help me! I heard there's a master in your family who can helpout of this desperate situation." She didn't dare mention borrowing money for fear Lady Sweeney would refuse her.
Lady Sweeney didn't have much of a relationship with Mrs. Kaur; they had only met at a few banquets and exchanged swords.
But Lady Sweeney enjoyed being sought after for help.
She held a high position in the Sweeney family because she had given birth to outstanding twin sons-status elevated by her children's success.
Mrs. Kaur nodded repeatedly. "Thank you so much, Lady Sweeney." She now had three hundred thousand dollars-money given by Oakley and Dariel-and planned to use it to turn her luck around by seeking help from the master to resolve this crisis! She believed that once the master intervened, she would turn misfortune into fortune.
She sat quietly in Lady Sweeney's courtyard, waiting patiently.
