"What''s wrong?"


    Aunt Jade asked casually when she noticed her grandniece, M, hadn''t spoken for a while.


    M snapped back to reality, took a deep breath, and finally made up her mind. "Aunt Jade, could you help me find a divorcewyer?"


    Jade was taken aback, a little surprised. "Can''t you find one yourself?"


    "It''s not that," M hedged. "It''s just that since I''m divorcing Lysander, I worry that


    a regrwyer might not be enough. I want to hire someone with more reputation and skill, but it''s hard for me to get in touch with them..."


    M avoided the real reason.


    She couldn''t tell Aunt Jade that Lysander was using his influence and money to make it impossible for her to find awyer. If Aunt Jade knew, with her personality, she''d definitely march over to the Montgomery family and cause a scene. If that happened, it would be impossible to keep this from her mother-inw.


    If her mother-inw found out about the divorce, it would be even harder to finalize!


    M was determined to keep this a secret from her mother-inw until the divorce was finalized. Once it was done, there would be no turning back.


    Luckily, Jade didn''t press her further. She understood howplicated divorces in high society could be, and a goodwyer was crucial for matters like asset division and child custody.


    "Alright, I have a professional legal team at the Kingsford branch of Splendid. I''ll arrange for them to assist you. You can discuss any issues with them," Jade agreed without hesitation.


    M was overjoyed, expecting just onewyer but getting an entire team! She hugged her aunt tightly, her spirits lifted. "Thank you, Aunt Jade!"


    "Off with you—it''s only when you need my help that you remember to be sweet," Jade teased, her wrinkled face lighting up with a satisfied smile.


    ...


    They chatted for a while, and soon they arrived at the Metropolitan Hospital.


    Beforeing, Jade''s secretary, Sophie, had already contacted the hospital and arranged for VIP ess, allowing for aprehensive health checkup at any time.


    As they stepped out of the car and headed towards the hospital, the sound of an ambnce siren pierced the air, creating amotion at the entrance.


    The ambnce''s shing lights stood out starkly against the night.


    The vehicle stopped, and several doctors quickly exited, pushing a stretcher towards the emergency room. On the stretchery an unconscious, tall young


    man.


    A distraught, middle-aged woman followed closely, tears streaming down her face. M caught sight of this scene and paused, a look of confusion crossing her face. Why did that crying woman''s back seem so familiar?


    "M, what are you daydreaming about?" Aunt Jade called from a few steps ahead, snapping M back to attention. She hurried to catch up, pushing the ambnce incident out of her mind.


    The VIP channel was efficient, and the paperwork was quicklypleted.


    M apanied Aunt Jade through each step of the health checkup, while Sophie followed with a stack of documents.


    Just as M sent Aunt Jade into the second examination, her phone suddenly buzzed.


    She answered it absentmindedly, only to be met by a woman''s frantic, tearful voice.


    ...


    "Mrs. Montgomery, please, can you save Mr. Eugene?"


    "I-I walked in today and found him copsed on the floor, his face as white as a sheet. I can''t get hold of the eldest young master, and Mr. Eugene needs a signature for surgery. Please, can youe quickly... will he die?"


    The woman on the other end of the line was sobbing so hard she could barely speak, her panic evident in her disjointed words.
