Julie picked up the phone. As soon as she answered, the voice of Daphne came through, “Julie, I feel
like I’m falling apart…”
“What’s wrong?” Julie immediately suppressed her own emotions, sounding worried as she asked
Daphne on the other end of the line.
Daphne quickly responded, “I felt unwell on my way back to the company, and I was just diagnosed
with acute appendicitis. I’m about to have surgery…”
Julie frowned, “Which hospital are you in?”
“You don’t need to come, but sweetheart, you’ve got to do me a favor,” Daphne weakly asked Julie, “Do

Could you go over and supervise for me? The chief editor, said if we write this piece of news well, there

was startled and she put down her cup, rushing into the crowd to help Manuel up. Just as she did, an
elegant yet deep voice sounded behind her.
“Are you alright?”
Julie lightly shook her head and as she turned around, all the camera flashes suddenly aimed at her,

man before her.
He was extremely handsome. Delicate and gentle features combined with a rugged, powerful jaw line.
His eyes were amber, a tall nose below, face exuding warm feelings. His gaze was bright, like a sky full
