Chapter 65 

Derek didn’t hesitate to nod. The severity of Shawn’s facial injuries was unknown to others, 

, but the Larson family was well aware- 

Cheryl had initially fled in desperation, unable to accept Shawn’s disfigured appearance after the accident. She had approached and stayed with Shawn with hidden motives, eyeing his immense power and wealth. 

Even his power and inexhaustible wealth couldn’t make Cheryl tolerate Shawn’s scarred face, not to mention that now Derek’s burns were far more severe than Shawn’s ever were, 

Doctors had said it was unlikely for him to ever fully recover, that he could only undergo surgery after surgery to ease the symptoms, but no one dared guarantee there wouldn’t be side effects. 

He couldn’t give up, not even on the slightest chance of hope. 

“Alright, it’s quite a long way from where I live. You’re going to need to move somewhere closer, Naomi suggested. 

agree” Derek replied, unable to hide his excitement. “Dr. Edwards, did you really heal Mr. Fischer’s face?” 

Naomi nodded. “Yes laid” 

Shawn’s recovery came as a result of the scar–removal ointment provided by her, so she wasn’t bluffing in saying that, Wilson had taught her well She was confident and sure of her medical skill 

“Pack your stuff, and get ready to leave with me soon, she told him. 

Derek, polite and gentle by nature, with eyes that showed an undeniable spark of joy and hope, quickly agreed, “Alright Dr. Edwards, thank you.” 

Naomi wrapped her shawl around herself before turning to Millie. “Mrs. Larson, I apologize for not knowing today was your birthday and hence not bringing = gilt. I’m sorry for my lack of manners.” 

Millie waved her hands dismissively. “Dr. Edwards, you’re too kind. Your presence itself, along with Mr. Fischer, is a gift to my family, not to mention your willingness to help Derek. If anyone should be thankful, it’s me” 

Millie’s humility raised doubts in Naomi and made her wonder, 1s the Cheryl I saw at the Fischer residence actually sent by the Larson family to 

serk forgiveness?” 

Quickly, Naomi descended the stairs, finding Shawn standing alone, his presence emitting a chilling pressure. His handsome face was like chiseled jor, not inviting anyone to approach and dare to be unpleasant. 

Although the Larson family was celebrating Millie’s birthday, everyone knew that after this, things would take a definitive downturn for the family. 

Naomi strode confidently in her heels toward Shawn without a sideways glance, “Mr. Fischer, I have finished” 

Shawn glanced at her approvingly. She once again lived up to his expectations, seizing the opportunity he had given her. 

“Let’s go Shawn commanded.

As they left the Larson residence, a pale shadow dashed past, narrowly missing their car. 

Thcheck it out” Naomi stepped out of the car and saw Cheryl frail and ghostly pale, having fallen in front of the Rolls Royce 

“Mi Lanuni, are you alright?” Naomi 

Naumi naaivated by womanly compassion, Duved forward to help Cheryl up, but Cheryl pushed her away vehemently, “I don’t need your take nytinjsathey”

Just now, Millie had called, telling her to return. The Larson family was ready to 

From

If she hail known this would be the outcome, she never would have come back. Unable to stir anyone’s emotions now, the had also named her own 

Cheryl wept inconsolably, and Naomi sighed before being t

“Ms Larson, time won’t go in reverse. Look ahead Nam sad. 

“I wish I could, but the Fischer family won’t let me be. Cheryl replied. 

“If Mr. Fischer wanted to hold you back, he wouldn’t have brought me here tonight.” Naomi said. 

Cheryl stared blankly at Naomi. She recognized Shawn’s car as he hadn’t alighted, much the same as last time -Shawn hadn’t glanced at her. leaving Naomi to handle everything. 

Suddenly, Cheryl felt ashamed of her pitiful state, knowing she couldn’t let Shawn see her like this. She hurriedly wiped away her tears and attempted to tuck her sailed white dress, trying to cover her bloodstained knees. 

“Take care, Ms. Larson, Naomi said. 

In their past life, Cheryl and Naomi had no ties: Naomi remembered no wrongs committed against her, so she chose to keep her kindness intact. 

The Rolls Royce drove away from Cheryl, leaving her stunned before she gritted her teeth and staggered back into the house 

The following day at Spring Villa 

Chandler guided Derek to the medical room. “From now on, you’ll stay here. Ms. Edwards will treat you” 

Derek, cautious yet respectful, replied, Thank you, Chandler. 

“Don’t wander off to the front. Mr. Fischer doesn’t want to see anyone from the Larson family, Chandler reminded him. 

“I understand.” Derek replied. 

Having conveyed his message, Chandler left Naomi had gone up the hill carber, during her last visit, she discovered many rare herbs there. She had dog up plenty and planted the surplus in the garden behind Spring Villa. 

Derek’s burns were quite severe, so the required m more herbs. She searched meticulously and found quite a few that morning. 

However, she was still missing a very rare herd that couldn’t thrive in Spring Villa’s climate.
