Chapter 306 "Ever since I was born, you've pretty much been like family to me," said Curtis, his voice tinged with disbelief. "Now that I can't marry Suzan, are you cutting your relationship with me?" "I didn't mean that," Harrington quickly replied.

Despite the discomfort brewing within him, he knew better than to sour his long-standing relationship with the Richardson family. Pleasantries were necessary, even if just on the surface.

Jennifer spoke with her usual poise, "Even though it didn't work out between you and Suzan, let's not let this incident estrange our families after all these years." Claudine could only agree, murmuring, "You're right." "Last time, the caregiver who looked after grandma was excellent, attentive and efficient, with impeccable references. Mrs. Wright can't manage everything on her own. I've brought someone along to help out for the next few days." Curtis added, "I've got sfree tthese days. I'll swing by in the evenings to pick up Leanne from work. Just call if you need anything.” His offer seemed generous, but it was also a subtle warning.

Leanne pulled up Harrington's medical reports on her computer, quickly reviewing the results from the slit lamp examination and the fluorescein angiography photos.

After a brief review, she determined the severity and scope of Harrington's eye inflammation.

A few minutes later, she entered the hospital room where Curtis stood at the foot of the bed, hands in his trouser pockets, eyes fixed on her as she walked in.

She ignored his gaze and went straight to explaining the test results to Harrington. "So far, there's no sign of infection, but we still need to run stests on your rheumatic and immune systems. We can't rule out a masquerade syndrome. I'll arrange for a vitreous fluid test tomorrow." Harrington had shifted his attitude drastically from the stern looks he gave her that morning to a more cooperative demeanor now. "Go ahead and arrange it," he consented.

Leanne couldn't quite read their expressions, but she knew this wasn't a sudden tùrnaround. More like a temporary peace treaty, probably due to Curtis and Jennifer being present.

After leaving the hospital room, Jennifer gave her a few instructions before departing.

Curtis lingered by the wall, his eyes following Leanne. Jennifer, uninterested in his pitiful demeanor, left on her own.

1/2 00:05 Chapter 306 As Leanne was about to get back to work, Curtis strolled up behind her, casually inquiring, "I hear you've becquite bold, even daring to scold your elders now." Knowing exactly where the gossip had stemmed from, Leanne dismissed it without explanation, "Smart people don't fall for rumors." Curtis studied her expression, finding no trace of distress.

"Did Mrs. Wright give you a hard time?” he asked.

Thinking back to Claudine's speechless frustration in the office, it seemed she was the more aggrieved party.

The trouble brought by the Wright family often outweighed any personal grievances.

"It's fine," Leanne replied coolly. "No worse than what you've putthrough." Curtis paused, then a smile spread across his face, perhaps pleased by her familiar tone.

He grabbed Leanne's wrists and pulled her close, his eyes gleaming as he looked down at her. "I'm a villain deserving of the worst. Should you punishthen?" Leanne thought to retort that she didn't care about punishing him.

Curtis sentenced himself, "How about I'm not allowed to kiss you for three days?" What a ridiculous punishment! Leanne retorted, "You shouldn't be kissinganyway." "Do you punishor not?" Curtis asked.

Punishing him meant he could kiss her after three days? Leanne wasn't foolish enough to play such flirtatious games. "No punishment."

Curtis' smile got even bigger, his tone leisurely, "No punishment? So, I can kiss you then. His words were a minefield of traps.

Leanne, not one to be outmaneuvered, shrugged him off her hands in her lab coat and stuffed he pockets. As she turned to leave, she caught someone's gaze.

At the end of the hallway stood Suzan, who had appeared outom nowhere, her eyes deep and inscrutable, watching them. Leanne paid her no mind and walked past, heading straight down the corridor.
