Chapter 71
The Pelton family held considerable influence in the entertainment industry.
Their subsidiary, Nebula Entertainment, was one of the top compables in the field.
Nina probably knew more about it.
Taking advantage of the elevator door not yet closing, Roy secretly took a photo and sent it to Nina.
Nina was puzzled.
Roy. [Who is this?]
Nina looked carefully at the photo for a long time, finally recognizing some features from the blurry image.

Nina. (It seems to be Jason, an artist under the Hall family. He’s currently competing with Adam Jones. Why, did you poach him? I don’t want him!]
Roy. (The hell I did…]
From across the ocean at a meeting, Nina looked at those words and didn’t immediately understand what her brother meant. Chris’s work at the hospital was going more smoothly.
He thought that even if he couldn’t study abroad, living like this was still good.
But learning never ended, and he knew he still had shortcomings.
As a doctor, there could be no mistakes, not even the slightest one.
To improve further, studying abroad was imperative.
Jake frequently came into his room to rest.
“Hey, tell me, why is that man–child looking for your wife again??
During lunch, Jessica didn’t reply to messages, probably at a lunch meeting.
Chris didn’t dare call and just ate something casually with Jake at the hospital cafeteria.
Jake held her phone up to his face,
“How can this person be so persistent? Is being a man–child homewrecker that enjoyable?”
Calling him a “homewrecker” was really blunt.
After returning from Tesalfield, Jake had been pestering Chris to tell him the whole story about him and Jessica, down to every detail, even that they were already divorced and that Michael was the first love returning from abroad..
So the “homewrecker” Jake referred to could only be Michael.
“How am I supposed to look at this?” Chris smiled, gently gripping Jake’s wrist and pulling him back.
Entertainment news headlines appeared.
Jessica and Michael were leaving the Wilder Group building together, chatting and laughing as they got into a car.
Judging by the time, they were probably having lunch together.
No wonder she hadn’t replied, she was with Michael.
Chris picked up his phone and looked again, but still no reply.

In front of her first love, she certainly couldn’t reply to her ex–husband’s messages.

That day when Mrs. Wilder came to rescue her hero, those worried eyes really didn’t look like she was indifferent.” Jake chewed on cabbage, his mouth full, eyes fixed on the phone screen
“If she has feelings for you, then the relationship with Michael mest be just a fling!”
Chris said, “It’s not that simple. Michael is the first love, after all.
“So what?” shouted Jake, then was pulled by Chris and lowered her voice,
“Everyone’s been blind at some point! Look at them standing shoulder to shoulder but still with a big gap between them. Clearly, Ms. Wilder doesn’t want physical contact with him!”
Was that really the case?
Chris opened the photo and looked.
Indeed, there was quite a distance.
Thinking of Jessica’s recent nightly initiatives and intimacy, Chris’s face actually flushed red. It was rare for a man react in such
a way.
“What’s wrong with you?” Jake noticed Chris’s odd expression.
“What’s that face for?”
Chris pushed the phone back.
“Hurry and eat. Jonathan is taking you to surgery this afternoon, so save some time to review the surgery plan.”
While the two were chatting, their phones pinged several times simultaneously.
At the same time, the hospital broadcast also sounded.
