True Love Deserves a Second Chance

Alexander remembered that his sister loved to draw when she was little.

She always held a paintbrush and drew portraits of him, making him look silly yet adorable.

Every time he complained about her drawings being ugly, his sister would laugh and hug his neck, saying in a soft voice, "Don't be mad, when I grow up and learn how to draw properly, I'll definitely make you look handsome."

But before she could grow up, she got lost.

When she came back, Alexander couldn't find any trace of his former sister.

He thought it was the influence of her childhood environment that made Daisy lose

her original cute appearance and become what she is now.

Recalling these memories, Alexander's lips curled into a bitter smile.

He really had a headache when it came to Daisy.

He didn't understand why Daisy hated Sophia.

There was clearly no conflict of interest between them.

Alexander gently knocked on the door.

Elodie, who was concentrating on her drawing, didn't even look up and said directly, "Come in."

Then she continued with her artwork.

Curious, Alexander walked over, and when he saw the portrait on the easel, his heart tightened.

Wasn't this a portrait of him?

And he could tell that Elodie was very skilled, capturing him vividly.

Even the emotions in his eyes were portrayed.

Alexander was shocked.

He asked in a deep voice, "Have you studied drawing?"

Hearing his voice, Elodie immediately looked up.

Her clear, bright eyes showed a hint of panic.

She quickly smiled and said, "Mr. Cross, I just wanted to thank you, but I didn't have anything to give you, so I thought of sketching for you. I hope you like it."

"I like it very much. You draw very well. Have you been learning for a long time?"

"Not really. I've liked doodling since I was little. Later, I wanted to attend an art college, so my mom paid for me to learn how to draw.noveldrama

But I wasted my mom's money. I got into college, but had to drop out due to health reasons."

Hearing this, Alexander felt a pang of sadness in his heart.

He stared at the portrait and said, "You draw very well. You will definitely become a great artist in the future, and your health will get better and better. Trust me."

Elodie looked at Alexander with excitement in her eyes, "Really? You and Sophia are both so kind. She also encouraged me like this. I took a leave of absence from school. If my illness gets better, I can continue next year."

"Which school did you get into?"

"Elysian School of Art and Design, and I got in with the top score in my major. My mom spent a lot of money for me to learn how to draw. I don't want her money to go to waste."

Hearing the name of the school and Elodie's love for her mother, Alexander was moved.

Elysian School of Art and Design is not a place just anyone can get into.

It's a paradise for artists.

Its reputation is top-notch internationally, and many famous artists come from that school.

Elodie, despite her poor health, was able to get into that school.

It showed that Elodie was very talented.

Alexander felt a bit more affection for Elodie and smiled, "I will keep this drawing well.

When you become famous, I can sell it for a good price."

Elodie laughed, her eyes curved, and she took out a small stamp from her bag, pressing it onto the portrait.

She smiled and said, "Thank you for your kind words. When I really become a great artist, I will definitely thank you."

She handed the portrait to Alexander, her eyes filled with emotion.

She didn't know why she relied so much on Alexander, this doctor.

She believed every word Alexander said.

Being with him inexplicably made her feel at ease.

After chatting for a while, Tommy brought in Elodie's mother, Remy Jenkins.

Seeing Elodie hospitalized again, Remy immediately burst into tears.

She quickly ran to Elodie's side, touching her thin cheeks and crying, "Elodie, how are you now? Does your chest still hurt?"

Elodie shook her head with tears in her eyes, "Mom, I'm fine now, thanks to Mr. Cross. He said he would help treat me. When I get better, I can continue my studies."

Hearing Elodie's words, Remy immediately looked towards Alexander.

She bowed deeply to him and said, "Thank you, Mr. Cross. You are a benefactor to our family. If you can cure Elodie's illness, I will do anything for you."

Alexander immediately stepped forward and held Remy, saying in a deep voice, "Please don't say that. I can't accept it. Saving lives is our duty. Elodie's illness can't be delayed any longer. She needs to be hospitalized for treatment.

We need to wait for a suitable heart for a transplant, but don't worry, the hospital will cover the costs. Elodie is part of my new research project.

But you can't go back. You need to stay here to take care of her."

Hearing Alexander's words, Remy was moved to tears and bowed again to thank him.

"Thank you, Mr. Cross. Elodie is lucky to have met you. We will always remember your great kindness."

Remy spoke sincerely, and Alexander could feel that she truly loved Elodie.

She was even willing to give everything for Elodie.

This was indeed rare for an adoptive mother.

Remy not only had to work to help her husband pay off gambling debts but also, despite the difficult circumstances, spent money to let Elodie learn how to draw, showing how much she cared for Elodie.

Alexander couldn't help but feel a bit of admiration for her.

He asked Remy about Elodie's past situation and then left with the portrait.

As soon as he stepped out of the ward, he saw Daisy standing at the door.

She looked at him with tear-streaked eyes, "Alexander, are you planning to abandon me? You can be so good to others, why can't you be a little nicer to me?" Alexander's face instantly turned cold, and his voice had no warmth.

"Was I not good to you before? Do you not know why you have become like this?"

"When I get out of the hospital, I'll go to the Sinclair Villa to apologize. Alexander, if I do that, will you forgive me?"

"Let's talk after you apologize."

With that, Alexander turned and walked towards his office.

Watching his back and then looking at Elodie in the ward, Daisy clenched her fists

tightly in anger.

Having Sophia was already enough to give her a headache, and now there was another

woman.

They all wanted to take Alexander from her.

No way!

Sophia had just left the set when she received a call from Alissa.

"Sophia, the guy I mentioned last time, the one I wanted to introduce to you, has

returned to the country. Do you have time to meet him?"

Sophia initially wanted to refuse because she didn't like blind dates.

She didn't like the awkward conversations between two strangers.

But thinking about Tommy's feelings for her and Alexander's endless pestering, Sophia

changed her mind.

To end their hopes, she had to start a new relationship.

Sophia immediately replied, "Sure, I'm free in the evenings these days."

"Then let's do it today. You can go directly to the Western restaurant near my house.

We'll meet there, okay?"

"Alright, see you later."

Half an hour later, Sophia arrived at the agreed location.

Alissa immediately greeted her, "Sophia, let me introduce you. This is my college

classmate, Manuel Watson. He just returned to the country and is in the investment business."

Manuel slowly turned around, revealing his refined and handsome face.

Sophia's eyes widened instantly, "Why is it you?"
