Once the doctor had left, Matthew took a seat beside the bed and spoke to Neville. “I’ll summon a nurse to attend to you. Do you wish to inform your family?”
Neville shook his head. “No need. But I need your help for one thing.”
“What’s the matter?” Matthew asked.
“I…” A trace of embarrassment crossed Neville’s face. After a brief pause, he stated, “I’d like you to act as my mediator so I can reconcile with Miley.
Miley must be quite upset since she said that she wanted to break up with him.
He realized that if he approached her hastily, she would Likely refuse to see him and wouldn’t be receptive to his explanation.
He wished for Matthew and Stella to provide Miley with an explanation beforehand. When he recuperated from the operation, he intended to personally visit and offer his apologies to Miley, hoping that it would mitigate her anger.
Matthew nodded. “I see. But why didn’t you inform me of your decision ahead of time? Losing a business doesn’t matter to me. Just look at how miserable you are right now!”
Neville smiled, saying, “We’re good friends, and it’s not every day that I get a chance to do something for you. I’m more than happy to do this for you.”

Over the past few years, Neville had been involved with various women, tarnishing his reputation. It was Matthew who had been willing to assist him in rebuilding and had become a good friend in the process.
He remembered everything Matthew did for him.
Even though he understood that Matthew didn’t expect any repayment, Neville still wanted to sincerely do him a favor.
Matthew glared at him. “What you can do for me now is to recover as soon as possible.”
Meanwhile, Susie was having lunch with her parents.
At the table, she appeared lost in thought several times, leaving everyone wondering about the thoughts occupying her mind.
Her parents, Wyatt Blakely and Kamryn Blakely, exchanged puzzled glances and then both shook their heads in confusion.
“Susie…” Kamryn called her name a few more times before she finally snapped out of her reverie.

Kamryn gazed at her affectionately and inquired in a soft tone, “What’s on your mind?” Is there anything wrong?”
Susie shook her head. “I’m fine.”
Having spoken, she lowered her head and began to cut into her steak.
Despite Susie’s attempt to appear unaffected, it was evident that something was amiss. Kamryn set down her knife and fork and pressed on, “Is there something bothering you? Is it because you don’t get along well with Neville? I heard from your father last night that you were very satisfied with him, weren’t you?”
After a brief pause, Susie finally couldn’t hold back and said candidly, “He is a good man. Dad, Mom, I hope you can tell the Pierce family that I want to marry Neville as soon as possible.”
Miley found herself in the clutches of a disturbing dream. In the midst of a wedding ceremony with Neville, her hand reached out to meet his, only to find Susie in her place as the bride.
The crowd, including Stella and Matthew, showered them with congratulations.
