Torn between guilt and desire, Eloise struggles with her attraction to Luis. Their tense encounter is interrupted by Logan, who arrives with shocking news: Serena has been in a serious car accident. Luis offers to drive Eloise and Logan to the hospital, where they contact Brook to arrange expedited care for Serena.

Within the makeshift medical room, a young woman, looking somewhat disheveled, lay groaning on a bed.

A young nurse addressed the woman, stating, "You must be the patient's family. We're preparing to take her for a CT scan and an MRI. Could you please proceed to the counter to settle the bill first?"

"Understood, understood!"

Logan swiftly grabbed the bill and hurried off to make the payment.

Guided by the nurse, Cedric and Eloise transported the hospital bed to undergo the necessary examinations. Upon returning after settling the fees, Logan rushed back.

"It would be best if you lifted her onto it like this!"

The young nurse offered guidance from the side.

Logan stepped forward to assist. To his embarrassment, the old gentleman was inherently frail and had never engaged in manual labor.

The saying "a scholar is utterly useless" seemed perfectly embodied in him. His face drained of color as he exerted himself, and he stumbled, almost dropping his sister, Serena, to the ground.

"Uh, let's do it together then!"

Logan said awkwardly. A single attempt at exertion left him panting.

Eloise felt mortified, and even the young nurse couldn't help but show a hint of disdain.

"I'll handle it. Aunt Serena, please just place your arms around my neck."

Luis, unable to bear the sight any longer, stepped forward. After giving the instruction, he added, "I can manage by myself. More people might just get in the way."

"Can you even manage it??"

Logan inquired, his doubt evident.

"Serena, this is my sister's son-in-law, Luis!!"

Eloise made the introduction, then shot Logan a pointed look, saying, "Why are you interfering? Serena isn't fat. Do you think Luis is as weak as you are?"

"Don't worry, these eight-pack abs weren't earned for nothing!!"

Luis couldn't discern her features clearly. The most striking impression was her exceptionally large, sparkling eyes, bright and full of spirit, beautifully reminiscent of a young girl's.

Without dwelling on it at that moment, he directly employed a princess carry, lifting her horizontally and gently setting her down on the platform.

The action was so smooth and swift that most observers reacted only after it was completed.

Throughout the entire series of examinations, Cedric was the one who assisted in moving her, performing each task with complete ease, his face showing no flush and his breathing steady.

"I'm actually quite heavy. Luis, you must be tired!!"

Serena said apologetically.

"Not at all, Auntie is very light!"

Cedric responded with a lighthearted laugh. "Where is the heaviness? Auntie is right, you're not fat in the slightest."

Her voice was soft and gentle, exceptionally pleasant to listen to, exuding the refined aura of a well-bred lady.

Despite her current disheveled state, with blood and dirt smudged across her face, rendering her rather unkempt, the overall impression from their interaction was highly favorable.

She presented a completely different profile compared to Logan. Her parents had unexpectedly conceived her late in life... being the youngest child in the family... and she didn't inherit any of her brother's unfortunate, pretentious flaws.

"The test results are finalized. She requires hospitalization!"

The attending physician approached with the necessary documents shortly thereafter.

All in all, the issues were not severe. There was a minor fracture in her left forearm, but it was slight. However, when the joint was sprained, the tendon had also been strained.

There weren't extensive full-body abrasions, but numerous contusions were present... These all required minor procedures and adjustments.

Approximately ten days to half a month of treatment would be sufficient. Subsequent care could involve a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner for recuperation, followed by ample rest.

The doctor presented a bill for ten thousand dollars. Logan glanced at it, his face immediately contorted with distress, and he declared, "The family's fixed-term deposit slips, the bankbook... I neglected to bring them."

"I have... a little over three thousand..."

Serena quickly stated.

"Get the treatment sorted first. Why are you worrying about these matters now?"

Eloise possessed some funds that could be pooled together. Luis, observing her cordial relationship with this aunt, proactively dispensed twenty thousand dollars to cover the initial expenses.

They were then transferred to a private room, which was quite well-appointed. Soon after, other checks, including blood pressure and blood sugar readings, were conducted, and an IV drip was administered.

Other members of the Xie family began to arrive gradually. Luis, keeping his accomplishments hidden, departed first.

While the benevolent act was momentarily disrupted by an unforeseen incident, Luis harbored no frustration. After all, his primary focus currently rested upon Ariana.

As long as her parents were occupied, he would have ample opportunity for her training. From a different perspective, this indeed constituted an advantageous development.

By the time he departed the hospital, the hour had struck nine. A canopy of dark clouds had gathered, punctuated by flashes of lightning and the rumble of thunder. As Luis settled into his car, a torrential downpour commenced.

"Brother-in-law!"

A call from his sister-in-law, Leah, pierced through the storm. Her voice held an urgent tone, "Where are you? Why haven't you come to pick me up yet?"

"You truly are an impatient little minx. What's the great hurry!!"

Luis briefly recounted his recent experiences, then playfully needled her, "Your brother-in-law's stomach is still empty. Aren't you going to show a little concern for me!!!"

"I haven't eaten dinner either. I've been waiting for you this whole time."

Leah responded shyly, "Of course I care about Brother-in-law. Otherwise, why would I have waited until now?"

"Hold your horses, little perv. Brother-in-law will come fetch you first."

Upon reaching the entrance of Blanche's residential complex, Leah, without hesitation, dashed through the heavy rain and into the car.

Her dress was slightly damp. The endearingly cute sister-in-law, while drying strands of her hair and her face, inquired, "What's the situation with Ariana over there?"

Observing her cautiously settling into the back seat, Luis smirked and quipped, "Asking about it right away... Don't be so eager."

"Hey... Brother-in-law!"

On the other end, the younger cousin's call revealed even heavier rain. She sounded utterly dejected, stating, "We were just about to start the barbecue, and now we're drenched like drowned rats."

Luis chuckled and teased, "Didn't you check the weather forecast? So, what's the current situation?"

"What's the situation!!!"

The younger cousin lamented glumly, "There's nowhere to take shelter from the rain at the beach. Right now, we've all scurried to the entrance of some hotel. It's packed, completely unbearable."

The primary concern was the uncomfortable crowding; it was truly humiliating. That grand resort hotel, a business open to patrons, was now besieged. A multitude of individuals with empty pockets, who had been enjoying the adjacent free beach without spending a cent at the establishment, were now crammed inside to escape the deluge.

This is an age where self-esteem peaks, and sensitivity and rebellion run high. From her tone alone, Cedric could discern the depth of her grievance.

"What's the name of the hotel??"

Beyond the System's blackmail tactics, Luis had always managed to win people over with attentiveness and affection. Naturally, he could sense her current dejected state.

"Ocean, Sunshine."

Upon hearing this, Luis was amused. It was evident that this establishment was either part of the Ocean Group's portfolio or associated with their business partners.

While driving, he instructed her, "Here's what you need to do. Proceed directly to the hotel lobby. State your eldest sister's name and phone number. Secure a room first, get cleaned up, and avoid catching a cold."

During his mother-in-law's birthday celebration, in a gesture to generously spend on his sister-in-law, he had directly procured a diamond membership card from the Ocean Group. This card offered universal access across a network of their affiliated businesses, including Ocean World, Gestor Palace, and Ocean Private Cuisine. At that time, he had initially deposited two hundred thousand dollars, with a subsequent deposit of another two hundred thousand dollars... Even with the family utilizing it for their regular leisure pursuits, the card still retained a balance of at least two hundred thousand dollars. What a display of extravagance.
