**Chapter 309**<\/p>\n
Sydney\u2019s gaze remained firm and unwavering as she spoke, her voice carrying a reassuring confidence. \u201cI\u2019ve had the opportunity to treat several patients with ailments similar to Madam Hutton\u2019s in the past. That experience is why I am certain that I can help her recover.\u201d<\/p>\n
Theodore Hutton, a man often characterized by his stoic demeanor, turned to his wife Florence, and in that moment, the steeliness in his posture seemed to dissolve. His eyes sparkled with a mix of joy and relief as he gazed down at her, his heart swelling with hope. \u201cFlorence! Did you hear what Sydney just said? In just six months, you\u2019ll be able to stand on your own again. This journey we embarked on was not in vain.\u201d<\/p>\n
Nearby, James Hutton, the couple\u2019s typically reserved second son, shifted his attention from his parents to the unfolding conversation. \u201cI\u2019ll stay here in Jouleston with Mom during her treatment,\u201d he declared, a sense of determination in his voice.<\/p>\n
He knew it was also the perfect opportunity to address the myriad issues plaguing the local branch of their family business. It had become evident that many employees had been overstepping their boundaries while the Huttons had kept a deliberate distance from the city, and it was time to regain control.<\/p>\n
Theodore raised an eyebrow, his curiosity piqued. \u201cIsn\u2019t your younger brother already stationed in Jouleston? And isn\u2019t he a doctor? Shouldn\u2019t he be the one looking after your mother?\u201d<\/p>\n
A flicker of helplessness crossed James\u2019 features, and he sighed. \u201cThen where is he?\u201d<\/p>\n
As if struck by a sudden realization, Theodore\u2019s mind raced. Raymond had been with them just moments ago, but now he was nowhere to be found.<\/p>\n
\u2018That boy, off gallivanting again,\u2019 Theodore mused, frustration creeping into his thoughts.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Raymond leaned casually against a wall in the hallway, his eyes fixed intently on a slender figure standing on the balcony, her phone pressed firmly to her ear.<\/p>\n
Tiffany had always been on the thinner side. In their earlier days, he would often tease her about being all sharp angles when he held her close. Though time had filled her out slightly, she still appeared delicate, as if he could lift her effortlessly with just one arm.<\/p>\n
She was here this evening primarily to support Sydney, yet her phone seemed to be a magnet for calls, ringing incessantly with inquiries from clients and colleagues alike.<\/p>\n
Her fingers gripped the railing, and her voice, though steady, carried an undercurrent of fatigue. \u201cYes, that\u2019s right. We\u2019ll discuss the details in person tomorrow. How could I possibly promise you a guaranteed win ahead of time\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
Raymond found himself reflecting on how much patience she had developed over the years.<\/p>\n
This was a stark contrast to the fiery girl he had known back in university. When she had ended their relationship, she had slapped him hard enough to sting\u2014not just his cheek but his pride as well.<\/p>\n
He was, after all, the illustrious fourth heir of the Hutton family, accustomed to being doted upon, and yet she had dared to walk away from him without a second thought.<\/p>\n
As Tiffany ended the call and turned around, their eyes locked across the hallway. In that fleeting moment, it was as if she sensed his presence, but without her glasses, she couldn\u2019t decipher the emotions swirling in his gaze.<\/p>\n
She quickly averted her eyes, treating him as if he were a mere shadow, and began to walk away, her back turned to him.<\/p>\n
\u201cLooking for Sydney?\u201d His voice, cool and low, echoed down the corridor, slicing through the tension that hung in the air.<\/p>\n
She halted mid-step, her curiosity piqued. \u201cYou saw her?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cPI take you,\u201d Raymond replied, pushing himself off the wall and standing tall, trying to project an air of nonchalance. \u201cShe\u2019s in the lounge, examining my mother\u2019s legs. My father is there too\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
Before he could finish his thought, her expression hardened, a wall of resolve rising between them. She refused to look at him again, her heels striking the floor with a sharpness that mirrored her mood as she walked away, her phone already in hand. His family had humiliated her once, and she would not allow it to happen again.<\/p>\n
In the lounge, Sydney was just in the process of rolling down Florence\u2019s pant legs when a message from Tiffany flashed on her phone.<\/p>\n
Tiffany: [Babe, had a bit to drink, feeling dizzy. I\u2019m waiting in the car. Come out soon.]<\/p>\n
Since Tiffany had the keys to Sydney\u2019s car, there was no cause for concern. Sydney simply replied with a casual \u201creceived\u201d sticker, her mind still focused on the task at hand.<\/p>\n
As she stepped forward, a business card was presented to her. \u201cMs. Wilson, here\u2019s my card. Could you please share your contact information as well? Once I\u2019ve settled my mother in, I\u2019ll send you the address.\u201d<\/p>\n
For a family like the Huttons, it was customary to offer in-home treatment, and naturally, the rate reflected that level of service.<\/p>\n
Theodore had already set the price: $10,000 per visit, and once his wife recovered, they would add an additional $2 million for the overall treatment.<\/p>\n
As the chapter draws to a close, the emotional landscape of the Hutton family is marked by a blend of hope and unresolved tension. Sydney\u2019s unwavering confidence in her ability to help Florence ignites a flicker of optimism in Theodore, who momentarily sheds his stoic exterior, allowing joy to seep into his heart. This renewed hope is met with James\u2019s determination to stay close to his mother, signaling a willingness to confront not only familial obligations but also the challenges that have long been ignored within their family business. However, the absence of Raymond looms large, creating a palpable sense of frustration and disappointment that underscores the family\u2019s struggle to reconnect amidst their personal battles.<\/p>\n
On the periphery, the unresolved dynamics between Raymond and Tiffany add another layer of complexity to the narrative. Their brief exchange reveals the lingering effects of past grievances, with Tiffany\u2019s resolute dismissal of Raymond serving as a poignant reminder of the scars that remain from their tumultuous history. As she turns away, the emotional wall she erects reflects not only her desire to protect herself but also the weight of the Hutton family\u2019s legacy that she refuses to be burdened by once more. The chapter encapsulates a moment of fragile hope intertwined with the shadows of the past, leaving the reader to ponder whether the bonds of family and love can truly withstand the trials they face.<\/p>\n
