After saying all that, I couldn't help but start to doze off. The alcohol made it impossible for to stay awake, and I was swamped with sleepiness. I figured Damon would leave to sleep in the car, but when I woke up the next day, I found myself in my own bed. This was the second ti he brought back to my room to sleep. It was becoming a weird pattern. My head was killing . After taking a bath and changing into fresh clothes, I felt a bit better, but then hunger kicked in. I thought Damon wasn't ho, so I didn't bother with a bra and just slipped on a light silk nightgown, ready to look for sothing to eat. Halfway down the stairs, I saw a couple of guys sitting on the sofa, all of them staring at . Damon was also there, holding so poker cards. His face turned sour the mont he saw what I was wearing.. "Hey, eyes off!" Mitch quickly pulled down another guy's head. I quickly dashed back upstairs to change, feeling a bit annoyed at Damon. Why had he been ho so much lately? When I ca back downstairs all dressed, they had stopped playing cards and were chatting. Damon had several good friends, all of whom I knew, but was not close with. Mitch, Jones, and Cooper. They were all well-off young n. Jones was a bit different, not working in his family's business but choosing to be a doctor. They all knew Damon didn't like , so they never regarded as Damon's wife. In fact, they even helped Damon chase other won, all except for Jones. They watched walk into the kitchen without saying anything. I focused on making a simple plate of pancakes. "Let's go." Damon stood up and said to the other two guys. Mitch and Cooper nodded and followed Damon out. Soon, I heard the car engine outside, but I didn't care as I ate my pancakes.
After breakfast, I put on so light makeup and prepared to go to the hospital. Today was mainly for a check-up and to visit Joshua.
At the hospital, I registered and went through the check-up process, mainly for breast examination. Luckily, there was no major problem, just simple hyperplasia of mammary glands. I kept the examination results, and then prepared to visit Joshua. "Dr. Jones, off work? Wanna grab so food together?" I just arrived at the ward when I heard a young nurse's sweet voice. Not far away, Jones was in a doctor's uniform. He was lean and had a unique temperant. The rich young n in that circle were all about pleasure, but Jones chose to devote himself to the dical field. He mostly hung out with Damon and the others, drinking and gaming, hardly having close contact with any woman or man. But didn't Jones eventually fall head over heels for Ariel? I decided to ignore him, walked into Joshua's ward, and found Ariel there again. "Ariel, it's just a little skin injury on my leg, my hands are fine. I can eat by myself." Joshua was enjoying being pampered by Ariel, eating an apple she fed him while mumbling. Ariel's laughter was crisp and gentle. "What, you're not happy with being so good to you?" "Happy, very happy, you are the best!" Joshua was grinning from ear to ear, his eyes full of love for the beautiful girl next to his bed. I coughed, breaking up the lovey-dovey atmosphere between the couple. Joshua was surprised, "Eliana, you're here again?" Ariel quickly got up to let sit. "Eliana, sit." Ariel's face was even more beautiful up close. I suddenly thought of Jones who just left, imdiately grabbed Ariel's hand, and dragged her out of the ward. "Eliana, what's going on?" Ariel was startled, following quickly through the corridor. How did Jones disappear so quickly? I was a bit disappointed. In my past life, it was Damon who t Ariel first, then Jones t Ariel through Damon. What if Jones t Ariel first? Would it be different? Would he fall in love at first sight like Damon did? I sighed, and then showed Ariel a faint smile, "Nothing, I just wanted to introduce you to a good doctor. He's skilled, and he can help Joshua with his stitches in the future." "Eliana, you're too thoughtful."
"Actually, Joshua's injury isn't serious." Ariel laughed, a bit embarrassed, "He's a rough guy, not afraid of this kind of injury. He used to get hurt all the ti playing basketball, he's used to it." I nodded, but in my heart, I was determined to bring Ariel to Jones next ti. With Ariel, the official girlfriend, around, I didn't have much chance to chat with Joshua. After a few minutes, I left. On the way ho, I stopped by the pharmacy and bought so more nourishing supplents. "Jas, did you find the housekeepers?" Back in the car, I called Jas. "Madam, I'm on my way to your house with them," Jas replied. "Alright." Half an hour later, I arrived at Starlight Estates. Jas was a step ahead of , the maids were all in their places, busily doing their tasks. I was satisfied with Jas's arrangents. Seeing return, Jas introduced to the maids, and they all respectfully greeted , "Good day, madam." I nodded and handed the supplents to the kindest-looking maid. "Please prepare this for ." After that, I went in to rest. A while later, a maid ca over with the supplent, saying politely, "Madam, it is ready." I looked at the supplent on the table, then at the still charming face of the maid, and asked kindly, "What's your na?" "Madam, my na is Cherry." Cherry quickly replied. "Alright, thanks Cherry!" I flashed what I thought was my warst smile, then waved her off. "You can leave now." With a nod, Cherry turned and left, but my eyes lingered on her retreating figure. Whether it was her face or her body shape, Cherry bore a striking resemblance to Ariel. I suddenly found myself marveling at the weirdness of the world, like a row of dominoes ready to topple. Chasing after Ariel's boyfriend, hiring Ariel's mom? I shot a text to Ariel to send over the files on the nannies, then gave Cherry's a thorough look-over. The ergency contact listed was usually a spouse.
I couldn't help but smirk when I saw the na listed under ergency contact. Cherry, and Ariel's dad, these two nas were all too familiar to . During my past life, my investigation into Ariel didn't yield much, but I did manage to dig up her parents' nas.
