He felt ashamed for having doubted her earlier. He had just been through too many bad experiences before,
which made him wary of everyone.
He didn't ask her anymore why she was helping him like this; knowing her intentions were genuine was enough
for him.

her meds on time, her health shouldn't have any major issues." Tears welled up in Jacob's eyes as he thanked
Chris, "Dr. Johnson, thank you so much!!

grandma's surgery wouldn't have happened"

and your should handle the medicine changes personally"
Chris was puzzled. "Why?"
Natalie didn't give a reason. "Chris, you need to take care of the medicine changes yourself for the next three
days. I'm worried someone might cause trouble."
Chris understood right away.
"Alright, | got it. You've worked all day, go and rest. I'll be on call the hospital for the next three days, and I'll
make sure to have someone | trust watch over the place! Chris knew that her words indicated there might be
danger. Jacob was also aware that Natalie was worried Jennifer might cause trouble.
Natalie guessed right. By the next day, a woman, pretending to be a nurse, entered Jacob's grandma's hospital
room.
Just as she was about to remove the oxygen tube, Jacob rushed in and stopped her.
The woman, in a panic, an away. Chris happened to cby to change the medicine and saw the woman
leaving hastily.
Chris was shocked. Without being able to stop the woman, he checked on Jacob's grandma instead. Only the
oxygen mask was removed; everything else was fine.
"| was terrified. If that oxygen mask had been off for ten minutes your grandma wouldn't have survived." Chris
patted his chest, realizing Natalie was right after all.
Chris said, "Kid, until your grandma wakes up, you can't leave her side from now on. I'll have everything you
need brought here. If anything happens, callright away. Tomorrow's the last day; once it's over, she'll be
alright." Jacob's expression was grim. "Alright, Dr. Johnson, thank you!"
"No worries, just doing my job. After that near scare, Chris left slowly, his legs weak, worried about a medical
mishap. Jacob looked at his grandma's kind face and let out a sigh of relief. He whispered, "Grandma, you'll be
alright. Since Jennifer would destroy anything she couldn't have, he would take his revenge for that too.
Natalie received the message from Jacob, saying someone tried to pull out his grandma's oxygen tube. Natalie
advised him not to leave the hospital room.
Jennifer knew the plan had failed, making it difficult to find another opportunity.
She looked at Oliver, her eyes cold. "Besides him, can we find any other kids?"
Oliver nodded. "Yes! This field is never short of talent. This time, | found one of Jacob Parker's rivals. His family

Jennifer was very pleased. "Great, go find him now. | want their whole team working for our company
Oliver laughed. "Ms. Simpson, your idea is brilliant. They are young and passionate right now, eager to make

the company, and they do everything possible for its success"
Oliver thought, With just a little incentive, they'll give their all. Especially kids from regular families.
Jennifer understood how to play with people's emotions, so she specifically chose those in need of help.
Jennifer said, "Go on, as for Jacob Parker, if | can't have him, no one else will either. Find a way to ruin him."
Oliver replied. "Alright! Our people haven't been caught, but Jacob might suspect us."
Jennifer sneered arrogantly. "So what if he suspects? He has nothing at all, and what can he possibly do?"
Oliver thought the same. Jacob was just a young guy-now, so he really didn't take him seriously.

She lay on the couch, remembering in her previous life, he had gone abroad, and when he cback, he was
