Chapter 1795
Bertha shook her head. “I can’t just rely on caregivers. Marlinie is my best friend. She’s like family to me. I can’t
leave her alone here.”
Thaddeus huffed in annoyance. “All these years, you’ve always cared more for Marlinie than for me! If it weren’t for
her, would you be in danger today?”
Bertha frowned in displeasure. “Here you go again! Neither of us got hurt, and besides, do you think Marlinie did it
on purpose?”
“I don’t care if she did it on purpose or not; I just don’t feel secure when you’re with her!”
“That’s your problem, not mine. I’m not leaving until Marlinie is discharged!”
After seeing the stubborn look on his wife’s face, Thaddeus could only sigh in resignation. “Alright, alright! You stay

that okay?”
Once her husband agreed, Bertha softened. “You… you’d better not come! You’re always tactless. You never
consider Marlinie’s feelings.”
“I’ll keep quiet then. Isn’t that enough?”
“Really, there’s no need. Focus on your own things. Sophia needs you too.”
Thaddeus looked troubled. “Don’t remind me! That girl is so stubborn! I told her to let go of Marcus, and we had a
huge argument!”
Bertha was stunned. “What? You… you really said that to her?”
Thaddeus nodded. “Bertha, I’ve taken everything you said to me seriously. I’ve been spoiling that girl too much over
the years! I think Marcus loves his real wife the same way I love you. He’ll never be able to develop feelings for
another woman, so holding on to him is pointless. Sophia will never obtain real love from him.”
Bertha was touched that her husband finally understood. “As long as you understand, we can slowly persuade
Sophia.”
Upon hearing his wife’s soft tone, Thaddeus gazed deeply at her. “Bertha, I’ve understood everything. Can you
forgive me and come home with me?”
Bertha blushed slightly. “Uh… didn’t I say that I have to stay in the hospital to take care of Marlinie?”
“I know! I mean, after your best friend is discharged, would you be willing to come home with me?”
Bertha went silent for a moment, then nodded.
With their disagreement resolved, both of them felt much better. They left the staircase and headed back to
Marlinie’s room.
As they passed the elevator, they saw Balfour waiting.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThaddeus’ gaze sharpened as he stared at Balfour.
Perhaps feeling the hostile gaze, Balfour turned to look at him.
Their gazes met, and the air became fraught with tension.
Balfour had just visited his father and was about to leave when he ran into Thaddeus.
DING!
The elevator doors opened. Balfour retracted his gaze coldly and stepped inside.
Bertha noticed her husband’s strange expression and asked, “What’s wrong? Who was that young man? Do you
know him?”
Thaddeus came back to his senses. “That’s the eldest son of the Howard family. For some reason, he’s been
opposing me in business these past few years.”
The eldest son of the Howard family? That would be…
Bertha’s eyes widened in realization. “Thaddeus, find out why the eldest son of the Howard family is here in the
hospital!”
