Chapter: 610
“Don’t you wish to meet Debora? Allow me to escort you.”
“Don’t worry. It seems everyone is eager to converse with you,” Ariana remarked, her gaze drifting
towards the young men, close in age to Mitchel, who sought his attention.
“They merely wish to engage in discussions. There are others available to address their inquiries.”
Without hesitation, Mitchel steered Ariana’s wheelchair across the expanse of the hall. ©
Ariana’s apprehensions began to wane. Mitchel’s words resonated within her. There were so many big
shots present. Those men could talk to other experts.
Contrary to Ariana’s expectations, Debora appeared younger in person than she did in the photograph.
A vibrant energy radiated from her as she donned a sleek black dress, her brown hair elegantly styled.
When she smiled, her warm aura enveloped those around her, even softening the wrinkles that
gracefully adorned her eyes.
Upon laying eyes on Ariana, Debora’s joy knew no bounds. Fully aware of her presence for the sake of
a friend’s child, she embraced Ariana tightly. In that moment, a profound connection was established.

cozy sofa.
“Please, tell me more about that child.”
Ariana began to recount Alina’s condition, sparing no detail, including the challenging skin problem that
plagued the young girl.
Debora pondered for a while, carefully analyzing the situation. “It may prove challenging to completely
cure innate autism, but there is potential for improvement. Moreover, some autistic children possessed
exceptional talents in specific areas and could be nurtured and guided.” ©
Considering Alina’s musical aptitude, Ariana felt a glimmer of confidence that with the right guidance, a
breakthrough could be achieved in Alina’s journey.
“As for the skin issue you mentioned, I believe it can be cured with current medical methods, though it
will take some time,” Debora added. She was quite patient and even warmly extended an invitation. “I
will be staying in Eleymond for a week, residing in this hotel. Moreover, my husband will join me on a
holiday in two days.
Coincidentally, he specializes in skin and infectious diseases. During his visit, I can request his
assistance in treating Alina.” ©
“That’s wonderful. Thank you!” Ariana expressed her gratitude, although a sense of guilt lingered within
her. “However, I’m afraid we are inconveniencing you. It must not be easy for you to relax,” she
admitted.
Moments earlier, Mitchel had informed Ariana about the demanding nature of their industry. Debora, for
instance, spent her days immersed in the laboratory and consulting room. This summit provided her
with a rare opportunity to take a well-deserved break.
Debora smiled warmly and assured her, “No worries, it’s our duty. Furthermore, Mitchel’s parents and |
have been friends for many years. My husband and I have always considered Mitchel as part of our
younger generation. Mitchel has been on his own for many years. It’s the first time he has brought a
friend to seek my assistance. Naturally, I must help him.”
Ariana found herself surprised and unsure how to respond. She had only encountered Mitchel on two
occasions, yet he seemed to treat her with a distinctiveness she couldn’t quite comprehend. ©

Before today, Ariana had never considered her relationship with Mitchel to be anything more than
acquaintances.
Mitchel looked very cold. He appeared wholly absorbed in his academic pursuits, which explained his
meticulous behavior and precise actions. He approached life with a seriousness that left little room for
lightheartedness or humor.
Reflecting on their interactions, Ariana realized that she had never witnessed Mitchel’s smile since the
day they first met. Even on the rare occasions when he did smile, it seemed forced and artificial, devoid
of genuine warmth, much like the mechanical movement of a robot. Regardless of what he said,
Mitchel maintained an impassive poker face, making it challenging for others to discern his true
emotions.
Initially, Ariana assumed he was a difficult person to connect with, but his unexpected willingness to
assist her proved otherwise.
Could this be what they called “a sharp tongue but a tender heart”?
“What do you do, Miss Edwards?” inquired Debora, her voice accompanied by a warm smile.
