After talking, Maya finally understood why Andrew’s attitude changed so much–Easton had done something behind their backs.
Well, Easton did it because he knew Maya was Ellis‘ best friend.
Taking advantage of her friend’s influence didn’t count as owing Easton a favor. After escorting Andrew out of the law firm, Maya immediately contacted Ellis and gave her a brief rundown of what had just happened.
Ellis fell silent for a moment before sighing helplessly. It’s fine. If Easton wants to do a good deed, let
him.
Does Cameron really have that big of a mouth? One late–night meal had gathered two people she couldn’t stand, and judging by the way Andrew had apologized to Maya, Cameron had probably spilled every last detail of what had happened.
Still, since Cameron had helped her before and Easton wasn’t actually causing trouble for her this time. she couldn’t be bothered to care about his “good deed.
After hanging up, Ellis intended to get back to work, but before she could, her vision suddenly went black, and she lost consciousness.
In the last moment before everything turned black, she vaguely heard her colleagues calling her name in alarm, “Ms. Harper! Ms. Harper!”
When she woke up again, a white ceiling entered her eyes.
She could smell the familiar disinfectant. Wait, isn’t this the smell of disinfectant?
When she regained consciousness, a worried face entered her gaze, and she blinked. Morty?
“You’re up. Do you feel fine?” As Morty spoke, he pressed the button to ring for the nurse.
“Why are you here?” Ellis looked around and finally understood that her colleagues sent her to the hospital. But why is Morty here? Who asked him to come?
Recalling the time when he ordered takeout, the recipient information hadn’t included her name and that a colleague had brought it upstairs for her, Ellis fell into deep thought.
Could Morty have bribed several of my colleagues? Are they feeding him details about my daily life?
“I happened to be at your company, saw you pass out, and brought you to the hospital,” Morty said honestly.
“You brought me here? Not my colleagues? Ellis was slightly surprised.
Yes.”
Ellis was speechless.
The doctor ran some tests and said you fainted from overworking. You need to take care of yourself and wet more rest,” Morty pulled over a nearby chair and sa beside her, his gaze fixed on her pale face. He

Hearing that she had collapsed because of overworking Ellis thought it was because she hadn’t rested well the night before.
After taking Maya home, it was already past three in the morning. Then, she didn’t actually fall asleep until after four because she took some time washing up. Barely getting any rest before her alarm went off, she had thrown herself straight into work as soon as she got to the office.
Hadn’t my unlucky year already passed? Why am I still ending up in the hospital? Ellis rubbed her temples. “Thanks, but you can leave now.”
“If I leave, will you be okay on your own?” Morty was reluctant to let her stay in the hospital alone. “Let the doctor check on you again. Once they confirm you’re line, I’ll take you home.”
“No need.” Ellis didn’t want to keep owing Morty. Even though he was doing this willingly, she just didn’t like him. She couldn’t bring herself to accept his kindness without feeling burdened by it.
Morty could sense her resistance. He averted his gaze slightly. “Did Easton say something to you last night? Is that why you.”
No, wait, Ellis has always been this way before Easton said anything.
Morty didn’t finish his sentence. He looked hesitant and curious, which made Ellis roll her eyes. She turned her gaze toward him and smirked. “You’re asking me that? I should be the one asking you! Did Easton tell you not to come near me last night?”
Morty hadn’t expected the question, but he still nodded honestly. Seeing this, Ellis scoffed. “What a lunatic”
People rarely changed, and Easton actually thought the world revolved around his will? That everyone had to listen to him?
“Don’t worry, I won’t listen to him,” Morty said, raising eyebrow. “And I believe you
won’t either.
“I won’t, but I’ve already told you multiple times that I’m not interested in dating right now, and I’ll never be into someone like you. You’re just not my type.” Ellis glanced toward the hospital room door. “Please leave.
Even if Easton hadn’t warned her, she still wouldn’t want anything to do with Morty,
Not liking Morty was one thing, but the other reason was that Easton seemed to have caught on to something.
With his self–absorbed nature, he hadn’t even heard he say she wanted to move on. Just one comment from her adoptive mother had been enough to make him lose his mind and lock her up in Dynasty Estate. If he found out Morty was pursuing her, there was no telling what he might do.
She wasn’t afraid of Easton, but she preferred to avoid unnecessary trouble. But if he really pushed her to the edge? Then so be it! She’d quit her job at Tate Group and leave for a city that suited her career growth.
Just then, the door was opened, and the doctor stepped inside.
