Matias was dragged to his feet, and he helplessly looked at Keira, still not wanting to leave the room.
No matter how Jackson treated Matias, the latter could live with it, but he didn’t want to involve Nara.
Perhaps sensing his dilemma, Keira sighed and said, “Haven’t you realized? No matter what, Jackson
won’t let you guys off, so there’s no need to stay here. So people have hearts made of stone, which
will never
soften.”
Matias looked toward Jackson.
Jackson sneered. “If your manhood is also destroyed, can you spare the culprit? Indeed, I’ll never let
you I’ll torture you little by little, slowly!”
off.
Matias’s eyes were red, and he stared hard at Jackson.
Just then, Nara grabbed Matias’s hand and signed with her hands. “Brother, let’s go. I don’t want to see
his
face”
Matias lowered his head and walked out the door with
her.

Matias still limped as he walked. Just as they left the room, they heard Jackson’s mocking voice. “Ha!
What a pair of disabled siblings! A cripple and a mute, that’s pathetic!”
Matias’s steps faltered slightly, but he didn’t look back.
After leaving the hospital room, Matias sighed and said, “Nara, I’m sorry. It’s my fault.”
Nara shook her head and gestured with her hands. “Don’t say that! Brother, we are a family.”
Matias nodded and said, “Don’t worry. If it cos to it, you can transfer to another university, or if
necessary, we’ll go abroad. My leg is almost healed now. Tomorrow, I’ll go look for a job to save money

you.
Nara nodded firmly and continued to sign. “As long as
the two of us are together, life will be good.”
She then looked at her mobile phone.
Seeing this, Matias said, “Do you want to attend the interview at the Nora Research Institute?”
Nara nodded.

Matias sighed and said, “I’ve also asked about the Nora Research Institute. It’s true. They don’t recruit
interns. Nara, you were probably deceived by soone.”
Nara also looked dejected, feeling it was impossible.
Keira pursed her lips and said, “If you want to know if you’re deceived, why not just go and see for
yourself tomorrow?”
Nara looked hesitant.
But Matias imdiately agreed. “Right, let’s go tomorrow and give it a try. I’ll go with you!”
Seeing the hopeful light in Matias’s eyes, Nara hesitated montarily, then nodded.
No matter what, tomorrow’s matter was an opportunity to seize.
Without trying, they would regret it in the future.
Seeing they had made up their minds, Keira finally relaxed. She was about to speak when she heard a
voice with a foreign accent in the distance, “I
discovered that the sa family owns several bridges
in Crera!”
The secretary said. “Really? That’s not likely.”
“It’s true,” the person with the accent continued. “I went to Oceanion and saw a sign, ‘Dumond Yore
Bridge welcos you.’ Yesterday, I went to Inevale and saw ‘Inevale Yore Bridge welcos you’… I
also saw the ‘Bidiff Yore Bridge welcos you.’ It’s so strange in Crera. Who is this Yore family, and
why do they own all the bridges?”
The secretary was dumbfounded.
Keira arched an eyebrow and looked over, only to see an old acquaintance: Scott Martin!
She rembered that in Oceanion, she initially
thought he was a construction worker and gave him an umbrella, only later finding out that he was an
overseas real estate tycoon.
There wasn’t much interaction afterward, and she had
forgotten about this person. But now, why had he
co to Clance?
However, they walked away, engaged in conversation,
and didn’t notice Keira.
Keira didn’t think much of it and looked away.
But the mont she looked away, she caught a glimpse
of a familiar ficure

doctor
Was that… Doctor Matthew?!
Keira’s pupils contracted, and just as she was about to follow him, she saw him turn the corner.
She quickened her steps, but when she reached where he had been, she found that he was already
gone.
Keira frowned.
Matthew was special to her.
Back in Oceanion, he reminded her to have her
monthly iron infusions, serving as her personal doctor.
Keira pursed her lips, recalling their past.
She didn’t know Matthew at first.
When she moved out from the Olsen family, she was
emaciated and often sick. Matthew was the doctor at a
small clinic near the apartnt she rented.
The first ti she experienced heavy nstruation without knowing she had anemia, she fainted
outside.
When she regained consciousness, Matthew was taking care of her and telling her, “The day before
your period each month, you need to co for an infusion, or else you’ll faint from anemia. If you’re not
treated in

ti, you may go into shock or even die, got it?”
Back then, Keira just nodded, looking bewildered.
Yet, she sensed a mystery surrounding this man.
He seed related to her sohow…
He had secrets.
But Matthew was always deep in thought, so Keira subconsciously kept her distance from him.
Their relationship was close yet distant. Since she couldn’t afford the infusion fees, Matthew said, “You
know, with our age difference and the sa surna, I could be considered your older brother, so I’ll
give you free treatnt from now on.
But Keira didn’t understand his action, nor did she
know what he was up to.
After her “death”, she returned to Oceanion in the
guise of Keera and tried to find Matthew, only to lea that he was no longer there.
She didn’t give it much thought then, but what was he doing in Clance?
As Keira contemplated, Lewis cleared his throat,

bringing her back to reality.
Then, Keira turned to Matias and Nara, who were waiting for her. “Nara, the jade pendant you asked
to get back from Jackson, may I see it?”
