Chapter 10: New Life

Hailey's POV

I'm Hailey, a 28-year-old medical intern. Little do people know, I'm the sole inheritor of the Aesthete family.

I lost my parents at a young age. Memories of them were blurry, mostly them calling me their little princess. After their departure, my grandfather Edward became my pillar. His shaky embrace and the thought that I might never see the two people who loved me most in this world lingered with me.

Ever since, my main concern had been my grandfather's well-being. A few years ago, his heart issues worsened. Opting to be a cardiac surgeon proved a fortuitous choice, allowing me to stay by his side and tend to him. Each successful recovery post-surgery brought solace.

My sole focus was my grandfather's health, as he was my sole kin. Hence, I remained a medical intern; I knew advancing to an attending physician would entail more obligations and less time for him.

Yet, life's trials extended beyond the hospital and my grandfather—there was also my marriage.
