Yuna had been working beside Wesley for a year and had seen all kinds of tricks.

She saw through William's ploy and harrumphed. "William, don't even think of changing the topic!"

William pondered for a moment before decisively changing the topic. "You know what? The tone you used was very similar to a certain person's."

Yuna ignored what William said as she asked, "Do you mean that the tone I used to use was not like a person's?"

William was stunned as he was shocked by Yuna's stunning sense of logic.

He concluded that to get a more efficient result, he should be frank than beat around the bush to deal with a person like Yuna.

William raised his hands as he chose to compromise. "Since you've asked, I'll get straight to the point. Your tone just now was very similar to Wesley's!"

Suddenly hearing Wesley's name, Yuna was stunned.

She had heard a saying that if people were in love with someone for real, they would unconsciously imitate that person's attitude and tone.

If William hadn't mentioned it, she wouldn't have realized at all when her words and deeds had been marked with Wesley's traces.

William didn't hear Yuna speak for a long time. He thought that by mentioning Wesley, he had directly touched Yuna's sore spot. He coughed and said in a reminding tone, "Miss Wallace, don't dwell on my words. I just wanted to remind you."

Yuna grew silent.

Since William had said so, there was no reason for her to not follow his way out.

She came back to her senses and continued with William's words. "What are you reminding me of?"

"You should try to erase what you learned from Wesley." William said directly and carefully, "When you really like someone, the traces are very obvious. You should be glad that Rowdy is not familiar with Wesley, otherwise, you would have exposed yourself in front of Rowdy long ago."

Yuna didn't say anything.

She thought about it and suddenly felt that William's words made sense.

She was silent for a long time before she said, "Got it."

Hearing that Yuna's tone had grown nicer, William struck while the iron was hot and quickly changed the topic. "Also, about the surgery, I think I need to explain it to you-"

"You don't need to explain that to me." Yuna said in a relaxed tone, shrugging her shoulders, "I was mad just now, and my mood hasn't been very stable recently. I'm sorry. Don't mind what I've said."

William nodded. "Even if your mood is unstable, I still need to tell you what you should know." He insisted on continuing his words, "The reason why I told Rowdy that you have a chance to recover is just a way I used to protect you. I have a backup plan, so you don't need to worry about what you should do if Rowdy really wants you to take the operation. I will help you solve it once and for all, and I'll make Rowdy completely give up on the operation."

Yuna didn't speak for the time being.

She knew that if she was dragged to the hospital for the operation by Rowdy, William would tell him that she would definitely die on the operating table.

In this way, Rowdy would no longer force her to take the operation.

"That's not a bad idea, but..."

William didn't know what Yuna was thinking. Without waiting for her answer, he continued, "As for why this method can protect you, listen to my explanation. Now, you have quarreled with Rowdy. In the next few days, you have the excuse to ignore him. As long as you don't contact Rowdy, the probability of you being exposed will be lower. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Yes." Yuna thought for a moment and stopped calling William by his name. She changed the way she addressed him and said, "Dr. William, thank you."

"Hey, you don't need to be so courteous." William was shocked by Yuna's sudden change of attitude and hurriedly said, "I just feel that it's not easy to work as a doctor. Not only do I need to treat you, but I'm also required to put on an act for you. Tsk, tsk, I will ask Wesley to increase my salary!"

At the mention of Wesley, Yuna couldn't help smiling and said, "You can just talk to Wesley about it."

William expressed his doubts. "Miss Wallace, are you sure I can do that?"

"I'm sure." Yuna told William with certainty and determination, "Wesley has always been generous in this kind of thing. As long as your work performance satisfies his requirements, he will grant your wish no matter what you ask for."

"Tut-tut!" William teased her on purpose, "You do know Wesley!"

Yuna certainly understood the teasing meaning in William's words.

But this time, she did not intend to refute.

Yuna smiled and nodded directly. "I do know him. If you want to know something more about him, you can come to me."

Before that, William had also mentioned Wesley in front of Yuna, but her previous reaction was far less calm.

Now, Yuna seemed to be able to face her feelings directly.

"Hmm, this is definitely a good thing!"

Although William was very dissatisfied with Wesley on a certain level, in this case, he still breathed a sigh of relief on his behalf and said, "Miss Wallace, Rowdy can check the call history between us. If we talk too long, it will inevitably arouse his suspicion. However, I'm glad that he can't hear our conversation, otherwise, we will both get killed. That's it for now. Let's contact each other if anything happens."

"Okay," Yuna replied. After a while, she hung up the phone.

She sat down and thought about what would happen next.

Because of the contradiction just now between her and Rowdy, in the next few days, she had an excuse to ignore him openly, and she would have no risk of being exposed.

However, in a few days, whether she was willing or not, she had to forgive Rowdy.

In this family, although she received the same treatment as Rowdy, she would never forget that this man was the real owner of this house, and she couldn't make too much trouble.

If she went too far and gave herself away, she might get herself killed in this house at any time.

Therefore, even though William's method could temporarily help her, it wasn't a long-term solution after all.

There were still many things she had to be careful about.

Yuna just sat there. It didn't take long for Emily to get up with the quilt. He looked at Yuna in a daze and asked, "Auntie Yuna, what time is it now?"

Yuna checked the time and said, "It's five o'clock in the afternoon. What's wrong?"

Emily touched his stomach and said pitifully, "I'm a little hungry..."

The child was still growing, so it was normal for him to suddenly feel hungry.

Yuna touched the little boy's head, helped him put on his coat, and said, "Dinner should be ready. I'll take you downstairs for dinner."

"Okay!" Emily jumped up and kissed Yuna. "Thank you, Auntie Yuna."

Yuna downstairs directly with the little boy.

When she could see the first floor, she subconsciously looked at the dining room to see if the food was ready, but she didn't expect to see Rowdy first.

Rowdy didn't seem to recover from his rage. His handsome face grew darkened. He sat on the sofa like Death. His men obviously kept a respectful distance from him and didn't dare to approach within five meters of him.

However, Yuna was not afraid.

The conflict between her and Rowdy had just happened. Now, she could completely ignore him.

Yuna held Emily's hand and swaggered past Rowdy. Not only did she not greet the man, but she didn't even look at him. She went straight to the dining room and sat down by the table.

Emily was not only smart but also a relatively sensitive child. He immediately noticed that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between Rowdy and Yuna.

He didn't ask Yuna directly. He glanced around and found that Milo was outside. He slipped off the chair flexibly and ran out. He looked up at Milo and asked eagerly, "Uncle Milo, what happened to my daddy and Auntie Yuna? Did they quarrel?"

In the afternoon, when Rowdy and Yuna had a dispute in the afternoon, Milo wasn't present. He just listened to the rough description of the situation by the brothers who were present at that time.

Judging from their words, it seemed that Rowdy and Yuna had quite a dispute by then.

Milo thought for a moment. He then pulled Emily away and said, "Yeah. Your daddy had a quarrel with Yuna."

Emily blinked his eyes, which were full of confusion. "Daddy and Aunt Yuna were fine yesterday, weren't they? Why did they quarrel today?"

Milo seemed to be in a dilemma. He looked at Emily with mixed feelings and said, "You're too young. You won't understand even if I tell you the reason..."

"How could it be? I understand whatever you say!" Emily tilted his head and said that with a firm tone as if he had to get an answer from Milo.

Milo had no choice but to tell the little boy honestly, "Dr. William told your daddy that there's a chance that Yuna's illness can be cured soon, but the failure rate of the operation is as high as 90%."

Although Emily didn't stay with Rowdy until he was four years old, he still knew him well.

The little boy thought for a moment, looked up at Milo, and asked, "Uncle Milo, Daddy forced Auntie Yuna to take the operation, but she was unwilling to take it, so they quarreled. Is that what happened?"

Milo looked at Emily in surprise. "How did you know that?"

If his brothers hadn't told him about the sequence of events, he wouldn't have been able to deduce anything from scattered clues at all.

How did Emily, a five-year-old child, know that?

Emily knew that he had guessed correctly, but he wasn't quite happy about it. He lowered his head and said softly, "I don't know what's going on between Daddy and Auntie Yuna, but I know what kind of person Daddy is."

For a moment, Milo was speechless.

Emily pursed his lips and raised his head, saying, "Uncle Milo, thank you."

After that, the little boy turned back to the house, and Milo couldn't stop him.
