She did not answer my questions but said weakly, “It would be of no use… you… must live your life, don’t get involved in this mess…”

The communication was cut off shortly after. No matter how hard I tried to call, I could not reach my mother.

Before I knew it, my face was covered in tears.

Was my mother alive or dead? Where did she go?! How could I not find out the truth?!

In the past, I was my mother’s obedient daughter. However, I must go against her words this time and was determined to find out everything!

The first step was to train and recuperate my weak body!

I have not exercised for many years so my muscles were extremely weak. I got off the bed and fell to the ground in a sorry state.

“Miss Elena, please don’t force yourself.”

There were people around who wanted to help me up, but I ignored them because I knew that in order to recover quickly, other than my hard work, there were not much anyone could do that would help.

Fortunately, I was a doctor in my previous life, so I knew how to do rehabilitation exercises very well.

I did the exercises on my own and felt the strength and changes of my muscles.

Little did I know that my professional movements surprised the doctors and nurses next to me, so they did not stop me for a while.

Time suddenly slowed down. I gritted my teeth and persevered. My forehead was unknowingly covered in sweat.

This strong look of mine captured the eyes of a man.

..

The tall man stood quietly at a transparent window in front of the ward. He was the famous Mr. Ken from the investment industry.

Today, he is an angel investor. He came to visit and inspect the hospital, but he did not expect to see such a scene.

The assistant beside him saw his stern boss and stared at the delicate and beautiful girl in the ward without blinking. He immediately went forward to explain.

“This is Miss Elena, the daughter of the Flying Bird company. She has been in the hospital for half a year, but for some reason, she woke up today and… She is still trying to recover.”

Ken raised his eyebrows and put one hand in his pocket. His eyes were filled with a look of scrutiny.

He was coincidentally invited to the Flying Bird company’s party tonight. However, he did not expect that he would meet the company’s daughter in advance.

However, Miss Elena was indeed intriguing. She disappeared for half a year, but she was acting strangely today. He could even see ambition and determination in her eyes.

Those bright eyes immediately attracted his attention.

The company was holding a big party, but they left their Miss at the hospital. It seemed that the Flying Bird company also had some secrets.

This seemingly delicate young lady might have a shocking secret! He happened to be curious about it.

..

When Ken appeared, I had already noticed him.

His gaze was so hot and playful.

However, I would not assume that he had taken a fancy to me.

After all, I clearly knew that he liked the female lead in the comic, which was the daughter of hospital director, Catherine.

I still had many matters to settle, so I did not want to fall in love or steal a man from the female protagonist.

Therefore, it was very necessary to keep a distance from the powerful male protagonist!

“You have been staring at me for a long time. I don’t think this would be a gentleman’s polite behavior.”

I was drenched in sweat and panted as I sat on the bed. I gulped down a mouthful of water and glanced at him with dissatisfaction and even anger.

However, my weak tone and cute appearance did not seem to have any lethality when I said those words. On the contrary, Ken felt an indescribable coquettishness in his eyes.

The man curved his lips into a faint smile. He did not avoid walking in and handed me a fragrant handkerchief.

“Miss Elena, you have misunderstood. I remembered that I was going to the Flying Bird’s party tonight, and you happened to be the company’s daughter. That’s why I was curious and took another look at you. I believed that a lady like you would not mind.”

I was wiping my sweat with his handkerchief and did not care about my image. I put down his handkerchief somewhat resentfully. I was not sure if he was mocking me.

However, the polygraph system reminded me that these were his true thoughts. He did not have any ill intentions towards me, so I let down my guard against him.
