00:28An Invitation from Max. Max stood in front of the nurse's station,
00:34looking up at the nurse sitting there with his big blue eyes. Max's birthday was this Saturday,
00:40and Mommy said he could have a party here at the hospital. Max wanted to invite Dr. Dexter.
00:46He was going to ask his Mommy to help him call Dr. Dexter when she came by to visit earlier,
00:52but before he could, Mommy said that she had a huge headache and had to go home and sleep it off.
00:57So, Max decided to call Dr. Dexter himself. Max, what are you doing out here? Even though Max was
01:05only recently transferred to this hospital, he was so cute and well-behaved that he'd already
01:10endeared himself to the nurses here as well. Nurse Maggie, can I use this to call someone?
01:16Max pointed at the phone on the table shyly. Of course. Who are you going to call? The nurse
01:22handed the phone to Max. Do you need me to dial the number for you? Okay. Thank you, Maggie,
01:30the little guy said politely. He then handed the note in his hand to the nurse opposite him.
01:36This is the number. This was the number he got from Dr. Dexter before he left. Dr. Dexter said
01:43he would come to celebrate Max's birthday with him. All right. Please wait a moment. Then...
01:50Margie laughed and dialed the number for Max before Blaine's phone rang. He was stopped by
01:55Ziva in the long corridor of the hospital. Dr. Dexter, this is the hospital fee you paid for my
02:02mom. Thank you for your good intentions. Please accept this as repayment, Ziva shyly said as she
02:09held the envelope in her hand out to Blaine. Blaine lowered his gaze and looked indifferently
02:15at the money in her hand. After a long pause, he raised his eyes and said,
02:21you don't need to return the money. Ziva was stunned for half a second before hurriedly
02:26holding the money out further. She said in embarrassment. No, I can't let you do that,
02:32Dr. Dexter. I sincerely thank you for your good intentions, but I must repay this money.
02:38Please take it. Your sister has already paid me back. Blaine calmly replied. His face didn't show
02:46any expression. Dr. Dexter, I know you're just being polite. Before I withdrew the money,
02:53I had already asked my sister. My sister said she still hasn't paid you back. Besides,
02:59my sister doesn't have any extra money. Even if she wanted to reimburse you, Blaine retained his
03:06neutral expression. Zoe had indeed already paid him back in a way. Only she could, in a way that
03:12Blaine greatly enjoyed. Ziva obviously didn't understand the meaning behind Blaine's words,
03:18thinking Ziva only wanted to help her sister. He'd purposely told Ziva what Zoe had said to say
03:24if her sister offered to repay him. Unfortunately, Ziva, as usual, was refusing to take no for an
03:31answer. Suddenly, Blaine's phone rang, interrupting them. Hold on a minute. He took out his cell phone
03:40and walked down the corridor to answer the call. Out of earshot from Ziva, the caller I did on the
03:46phone showed an unfamiliar number. The moment Blaine picked up the call, a child. His voice
03:52was heard on the other end of the phone. Dr. Dexter Maxx. He was stunned. Blaine broke out
03:59into one of his rare smiles. His usually indifferent and stoic face lit up with warmth
04:04and affection. Ziva, who was watching him from a distance, was slightly dazed. Who had made Dr.
04:11Dexter smile like that? If Ziva could make him smile at her in such a way, she would feel pure
04:18bliss. Ziva looked at the money in her hand that he'd refused, no matter how hard she tried, and
04:24her heart fluttered. If he didn't take her money, didn't that mean he liked her? She even felt that
04:32Dr. Dexter could actually be a little interested in her. First, he'd accepted her invitation to
04:38dinner, and now he was even willing to pay for her mother's medical expenses. Would he be so generous
04:45and kind if his patient wasn't Ziva, mother? This wasn't charity. It must be because Ziva held a
04:52special place in Dr. Dexter's heart, not to mention even the usually confident Sophia had
04:58mentioned this to her recently. Sophia felt that Dr. Dexter was treating her differently. The more
05:04Ziva thought about it, the happier she became. Unaware of Ziva's thoughts, Blaine was still
05:10talking to Maxx. Maxx held the phone to his ear and asked Blaine eagerly, Dr. Dexter, my birthday
05:18is soon. Do you want to come to my birthday party? Although Blaine couldn't see the little
05:24guy's face, he could hear the anticipation in his childish voice. He couldn't help but smile.
05:31Sure. When is Maxx's birthday? Saturday. Can you come to my party? This Saturday? Dr. Dexter?
05:41Of course. For some reason, Blaine couldn't seem to refuse this kid's request. The boy brought
05:48something unexpected out in Blaine. Moreover, he seemed to be exceptionally patient with him.
05:55That's great. Then I'll see you there. You must come. His little body, which was holding the big
06:02phone, was jumping up and down in excitement. It was really cute, and all the nurses smiled
06:08as they watched him. Blaine chatted for a while longer with Maxx before hanging up.
06:14Blaine was surprised his behavior was not typical. He couldn't remember ever being able
06:19to happily chat with a little four-year-old boy before, or any child for that matter.
06:25Looking at the smile on Blaine's face that he couldn't hide, Ziva suddenly felt envious of the
06:31person on the other end of the conversation. When he hung up, she walked over, smiled,
06:36and asked casually, Who are you talking to? Was that Sofia? Blaine put his cell phone into
06:43his pocket. The smile on his face quickly disappeared. He didn't answer Ziva's question.
06:50He only glanced at the envelope in her hand and said, I won't accept your money. You can put it
06:56away. His tone was extra cold and domineering in the hope that Ziva would get the message.
07:02Ignoring Ziva, Blaine walked past her and headed down the hall and into her mother's hospital room.
07:09Blaine needed to check on Mrs. Coincidentally, Zoe was also in the room with her mother.
07:16Mrs. Fuller, how are you feeling today? Blaine took her chart from the end of Gloria's bed
07:22and studied it carefully. He nodded. The situation looks positive. All the indicators are good.
07:30Dr. Dexter, do you have time? Later, I want to talk to you. Zoe stood up and asked Blaine
07:39in embarrassment. Blaine raised his eyes from the medical chart and glanced at Zoe,
07:44but didn't immediately answer her. He then looked down again and took out a pen from his pocket,
07:50writing a series of medical notes onto her mother's chart in a flurry of movements.
07:56Come find me in 15 minutes. I'll have time before my next appointment. As he wrote,
08:02he answered Zoe's question. All right. Zoe rubbed her hands on the sides of her pants
08:08uncomfortably and nodded in. Thanks. Thank you. Blaine placed the medical chart in the plastic
08:16box at the end of the bed. He smiled at Gloria. Mrs. Fuller, your condition is stable for the
08:23time being, so try not to worry too much. Rest well. Have the nurses find me anytime you need
08:29anything. Okay. Thank you, Dr. Dexter, Gloria politely said, but her attitude towards Blaine
08:36was still distant. Blaine nodded and walked out of Gloria's room without even looking at Zoe
08:41beside her mother's bed. As soon as Blaine left, Gloria turned to Zoe, a serious expression on her
08:49face, and asked, Has your sister still been pestering that man? Zoe shook her head and
08:55looked at her mother doubtfully. Mom, why do you dislike Dr. Dexter so much? Gloria scowled at her
09:02and said sternly, Zoe, while I'm in here, you need to watch closely for me. I do not want her chasing
09:10after Dr. Dexter again. Zoe couldn't understand her mother's concern. She paused for a moment
09:16before tentatively asking Gloria, Mom, I feel that something isn't right. Your reaction to Dr.
09:24Dexter seems too extreme. I'm doing it for Ziva. Good. Such a man is not worthy of our family.
09:32Didn't you want to talk to Dr. Dexter about my operation? Why haven't you left yet? Clearly,
09:38her mother didn't want to continue discussing this issue with Zoe. Okay. Zoe replied,
09:45seeing that her mother didn't look good. She dropped the subject.
09:50A quarter of an hour passed by quickly. Zoe left her mother's room to look for Blaine.
09:56He was already waiting for her in front of the glass window at the other end of the corridor.
10:01He had his hands in his white coat and looked out the window at the slightly desolate scenery.
10:07Zoe walked closer to him. Blaine turned to look at Zoe. His eyes were calm and neutral.
10:14What do you want to talk to me about? Your mother's operation? Yes, Zoe nodded. You're my
10:20mother's attending physician. I want to hear your opinion. You want to know my concerns? The risks
10:27involved? Yes, of course. Please be honest. What does your family think? Blaine seemed to want to
10:35hear their opinion. Zoe shook her head, looking a little lonely. They think she should have the
10:42surgery. But I feel like the risk is too high. Yes, Blaine pondered for a moment and nodded.
10:49His gaze returned to the scenery outside the window. His eyes were serious. To be honest,
10:56your mother's operation is very stressful for me. You don't have confidence. Zoe was slightly
11:02surprised. She thought Blaine was invincible on the operating table. After hearing what he said,
11:09Zoe was even less convinced that her mother should have the surgery. How could she feel at
11:14ease when even Blaine wasn't sure about the procedure? Blaine tilted his head and glanced at
11:20her. It's not that I don't have confidence, but I don't have confidence. But I do worry. Zoe was
11:27stunned and a little confused. She asked, What worries you? You don't think our family will be
11:34unreasonable like those of other patients, do you? I've seen news reports of rising cases of
11:41medical malpractice lawsuits. We would never do something like that. Blaine stared at Zoe.
11:48No one is unreasonable when an operation is successful. But what if it fails? He raised
11:55his eyebrows. Even if an operation has a 99 success rate, there is still always that small risk.
12:03There isn't a single doctor in this world who can guarantee an operation will turn out for the best.
12:08Operations like your mother's have very low rates of success. I mean, if your mother doesn't survive
12:15this operation. At this point, Blaine paused, and intentionally or unintentionally, his gaze fell
12:23on Zoe's slightly pale face as he asked her, What would you think? What will you think of me?
12:29Zoe was startled. She shook her head. I wouldn't blame you, Blaine. I would know that you had done
12:35everything you could to save my mother. Is that so? Blaine twitched the corner of his mouth,
12:41and his gaze fell on the big desolate tree outside the window. He said faintly, If that day were to
12:48really come, you might not feel so generous watching a loved one being pushed into the
12:53operating room, alive, and then not having them emerge. You might not be able to be so calm.
13:00Blaine sighed wearily. He had seen this kind of situation happen too many times.
13:06In their grief, families blamed the surgeons. Why would Zoe be any different?
13:13One of the reasons I'm telling you this is to prepare you mentally. As you said,
13:18I will definitely try my best, but I can't guarantee the outcome. I want to make sure you
13:25understand the risk. What Blaine didn't say out loud was that he was worried that if Mrs.
13:30Fuller's operation wasn't successful, it would destroy Zoe's opinion of him and any chance he
13:36might still have with her. But I know this. If you decide to do this, I will be the one to do
13:42your mother's operation. Blaine knew that even if Zoe came to resent him one day, he would still do
13:49the operation. He knew he was her mother's best chance, and he wouldn't deny her that treatment.
13:56This was his basic professional ethics as a doctor. Looking at Blaine, who was taking this
14:01so seriously, Zoe suddenly made her decision. Blaine, I have said it before, and I still
14:08believe that it's a blessing to be your patient. I'm sure you will do your best for my mother.
14:14How soon do you think she can have the surgery? You've decided then? Blaine stared at her urgently.
14:21Yes. Zoe nodded affirmatively. My mother and sister were waiting for my opinion.
14:27Initially, I was hesitant, but now I'm saying yes. Zoe knew that no matter what the result,
14:34she was sure of one thing. Zoe was sure she would be more at ease handing her mother over
14:39to Blaine than to anyone else. Episode 71. Wedding Plans, Birthday, Shopping.
14:46Blaine was both gratified and worried about Zoe's faith in him in agreeing to let him operate. Zoe
14:53was entrusting him with her mother's life, a fact that Blaine didn't take lightly. He understood
14:59keenly that this operation posed risks not only to Mrs. Fuller, but to his relationship with Zoe.
15:06If the surgery failed, I will put your mother on my schedule and arrange a time and day for
15:11her operation as soon as possible, Blaine told Zoe. All right. Thank you. Zoe nodded and smiled.
15:20Then I won't keep you. I know how busy you are. I'm going to go sit with my mother. Yes, Blaine
15:27muttered to himself as he watched Zoe walk away and into her mother's hospital room. He then
15:32turned himself and went to scrub for his next surgery. Several hours later, Blaine was still
15:39in surgery when the operating room phone suddenly rang. Sponge, Blaine said to the surgical nurse
15:46assisting him. Tweezers. Blaine was still stitching up the patient in front of him
15:52when he heard another surgical nurse, Kelly, call out to him. Dr. Dexter, phone call for you.
16:00Blaine frowned and ignored her scissors. The nurse quickly handed Blaine a pair of sharp scissors.
16:07Dr. Dexter, it's your mother on the phone. Kelly felt a little awkward, but she persisted because
16:14Dr. Dexter's mother insisted she needed to speak to her son immediately. Blaine internally sighed.
16:21Obviously, he knew his mother had refused to give up. He raised his eyes and spoke through his mask.
16:28Put the call on the speaker. Just a moment, Mrs. Dexter. Kelly said into the phone before quickly
16:35switching on the speaker. Mom, I'm in surgery right now. Can't this wait until I'm done with
16:41my operation? Blaine was obviously a bit unhappy with his mother's handling of things. However,
16:48he wasn't surprised. His mother had never really respected his job. Son, mom has a very important
16:56matter to discuss with you. Otherwise, why would I even call the operating room? Catherine's slightly
17:03excited voice came over the speaker. Okay, mom, go ahead. Blaine replied and lowered his head
17:10to look through the microscope as he continued to stitch up his patient. Sophia's parents came
17:16to our house this morning to discuss the wedding. They no longer think you and Sophia should delay
17:22getting married while they mourn for three months. Her parents don't think this is what Sophia's
17:27grandfather would have wanted. They believe enough time has already passed to allow them the chance
17:33to get over the initial shock of his death. Therefore, they want you and Sophia to get
17:38married as soon as possible. Catherine's words made Blaine's hand pause for a moment before
17:44he continued stitching. Josie, who was assisting Blaine, was also slightly surprised. He turned his
17:52head and carefully glanced at Dr. Dexter. Blaine had already quickly masked his surprise and
17:58continued burying himself in his work. Son, why aren't you saying anything? Mom believes that the
18:05sooner your wedding is over, the better. Anyway, everything has already been settled. All you and
18:12Sophia need to do is apply for your marriage license here in Scottsdale. Come this weekend?
18:18The Bureau is usually booked on the weekends, but I've arranged for them to stay open for you. Mom,
18:25don't make things difficult for people. Let those poor people enjoy their weekend. We'll talk about
18:31the marriage later. I'm busy right now, so I can't talk to you anymore. I'm hanging up. As Blaine said
18:38this, he signaled Kelly to hang up the phone on the other end of the line. Catherine seemed to
18:44have more to say, but Kelly had already cut off the connection. Josie, we only have a few stitches
18:51left. Why don't you close? Blaine motioned for Josie to take over, and he backed away from the
18:57operating table. Blaine sat down on a nearby chair and rested his arms on his knees. A complicated
19:05expression appeared on his stern face. His expression was much gloomier than before.
19:11What is it? Something wrong? Josie asked Blaine, still looking at the needle and thread in his hand
19:17through the microscope. Blaine shook his head. He had never had any real interest in getting married
19:23to Sophia, let alone carrying it out. The only person he thought of was Zoe. Blaine was curious
19:29about what Zoe's expression would look like after hearing this news. All of a sudden, Blaine perked
19:35up. He was looking forward to seeing Zoe's reaction. Ziva sat dejectedly on a visitor
19:42chair in the long hospital corridor. Occasionally, tears would flow down her cheeks. She reached out
19:48her hand to wipe them away, only for new tears to quickly replace them. She couldn't stop crying.
19:55Zoe stepped out of her mother's room, about to leave St. Mary's to go visit Max,
20:00when she saw Ziva crying uncontrollably. Surprised, Zoe quickly went over and asked
20:06her sister anxiously, Ziva, what happened to you? Upon hearing Zoe's voice, Ziva threw herself into
20:14her sister's embrace, hugging her waist and crying even harder. Ziva, don't cry. Tell me what happened.
20:23Zoe sat down on the chair beside Ziva, comforting her while wiping away her tears.
20:29Sis, doctor, Dexter, Dr. Dexter, who's really getting married this time? Ziva was already crying
20:38so much that it was hard to make out what she was saying. Even so, Zoe still heard her sister
20:44clearly. Zoe was stunned for a long moment before asking Ziva, you what? What do you mean?
20:53Dr. Dexter is finally getting married to Sophia. Ziva repeated herself, sobbing as she wiped away
21:00her tears. Sophia said that her family suddenly decided that there was no need to wait any longer,
21:08that their family had had enough time to grieve. They are definitely going to get married, says.
21:14Tell me, what am I going to do? Zoe's face paled. He was getting married to Sophia. Zoe's thoughts
21:22were thrown into chaos. Ziva's dismal wails were still ringing in her ears. I heard from Sophia
21:28that Dr. Dexter's mom told him to come home to get their marriage license this Saturday.
21:34Zoe's heart suddenly stopped beating. That's so fast. She absentmindedly murmured as her entire
21:41body turned ice cold. It was as if even the blood in her veins had frozen solid.
21:46Zoe didn't know how she comforted her sister or how she managed to leave the hospital.
21:51She actually saw Blaine on her way out. He was busy with rounds when he brushed shoulders with
21:56Zoe. It was as if he hadn't seen her. Zoe turned around and watched his white back as he disappeared
22:03into another hospital room. Her chest felt hollow, as if her heart was no longer there.
22:10He was going to get married. The moment Blaine entered the hospital room
22:14and disappeared from Zoe's sight, her nose started twitching uncontrollably.
22:20It was as if she could hear him smiling and chatting with his patients in the room,
22:25asking about their condition with concern. His voice was so deep and rich, filled with sincerity
22:30as he cared for his patients. How could he be getting married? Zoe's eyes burned with unshed
22:37tears as she turned around and ran out of the hospital. That Saturday, Blaine found himself
22:43shopping in a toy store. It was his first time inside this kind of place, and while Blaine
22:49could perform brain surgery, looking at the numerous toys lining the brightly colored shelves
22:54in front of him, Blaine found himself at a total loss. There were so many to choose from, he
23:01couldn't make up his mind. Sir, are you buying a present for your little darling? Is it a boy or
23:08a girl? A smiling clerk asked him kindly. She'd noticed Blaine's distress and walked up to him
23:14to help. Boy, four years old. Blaine pulled his gaze away from the toys and smiled faintly as he
23:21answered the clerk's question. Boys, I raised four of them myself. We have so many things here that
23:28are suitable for little boys to play with. However, the most popular toy right now is the hatchling.
23:36They are alien eggs that kids take care of until they hatch. A furry alien friend that repeats
23:42words and sings. No two aliens are alike. All the little boys are currently infatuated with these
23:50things. I'm sure your little darling will like them as well. As the clerk said this, she took
23:57down a large toy box from the shelf. The box was transparent with a large egg inside, similar to
24:04Transformers. Blaine asked the clerk with interest. This gift seemed to be pretty good. He hoped that
24:11Max would like it. Sort of. These are just a little more interesting, she replied. Blaine raised
24:19his eyebrows, nodded, and praised the idea. Good idea, studying the egg. It seemed like something
24:25Max might like. At least if it was the hot toy. He shouldn't be disappointed. When Blaine thought of
24:33the cute smile this would put on Max's face, he couldn't help the pleasure he felt. Blaine had to
24:39admit at that moment that he had developed a soft spot for the little guy. Okay, I'll take it. Can you
24:46gift wrap this for me, please? Blaine handed the gift back to the clerk, then continued to study
24:53the shelves for a long time. Finally, he carefully picked out a large model car and had it wrapped up
25:00as well. The clerk wrapped the gifts for Blaine as she told him with a smile. Sir, you are such
25:07a great dad. I can tell from watching how carefully you picked out these presents for your child.
25:13You put so much thought into your gifts. Blaine laughed in surprise and shook his head.
25:19This child is not my son. His child. Suddenly, Blaine thought of Zoe's pretty face.
25:26What would it be like if he had a child? Or rather, a child with Zoe? Blaine knew their child would be
25:33very cute. He raised his eyebrows. The child would have good genes after all. Thinking of this, he
25:41couldn't help but smile. However, when Blaine thought back to the other night when Zoe was
25:46afraid of getting pregnant, the smile on his face froze and his expression darkened. He needed to
25:53forget these fanciful ideas. Zoe had made it clear she had no desire to have a child with Blaine.
26:00What was he thinking? Blaine's phone rang, interrupting his thoughts. He took it out
26:06and looked at the screen. It was his mother. He knew why his mother was calling. She wanted to
26:13persuade him to return to Scottsdale and get his marriage license with Sophia. But he couldn't
26:18do that. It would be necessary to return at some point to pay the Quincy family a visit to apologize
26:24and end the engagement. But some things needed to be said before then.
26:30Sir, your gifts. The clerk politely handed the boxes to Blaine. Blaine didn't answer his phone.
26:38He put his phone on silent and put it back into his pocket. He took the toys from the clerk and
26:43asked, How much do I owe you? After being informed he owed $330, Blaine handed his black card to the
26:51clerk. Blaine walked out of the toy store with the presents and drove toward Max's hospital.
26:58Along the way, he stopped at a French bakery, went in, and brought out the birthday cake that
27:03he had reserved two days earlier. Sitting in his car and looking at the back seat, now full of
27:10gifts, Blaine shook his head in disbelief. Until today, Zoe had been the only person in this world
27:17who could make him prepare such painstaking gifts. This kid, who he had only met a few times,
27:24was now the second when he thought about how he would finally meet the mommy.
27:29The little guy was always raving about that strong, single mother. His mood suddenly improved
27:35and his curiosity increased. He put the car in gear, hit the throttle, and headed straight for
27:41the hospital. Blaine didn't know what room number Max was in. Max had never mentioned it when he'd
27:47called, and Blaine hadn't thought to ask at the time. He stopped at the admissions desk to inquire.
27:54Excuse me, I'm trying to locate a patient. Can you help me with locating the patient's room number?
28:02Blaine's appearance had immediately set off ripples among the hospital's female staff.
28:07His tall figure stood by the front desk, his impeccably handsome face slightly lowered,
28:13and he used his intoxicating voice to ask the nurse in front of him, his, and politely on his
28:19sexy lips, there was an indifferent and distant smile. This was why all the women couldn't resist
28:25this man's charm. Distant, indifferent, unapproachable. These things and his good
28:33looks were enough to arouse the curiosity of all the ladies, and they all wanted to get to know
28:38this man. Miss, seeing that the nurse was looking at him with a silly expression, Blaine could only
28:45cough and remind her. The nurse snapped out of her shock, her face blushing red as she hurriedly
28:50lowered her eyes. I'm sorry, so sorry, sir. May I ask who you are looking for? Max, a little boy
28:58with leukemia. He just turned five today. Blaine didn't know Max's full name, so he could only try
29:06his best to describe him so that the nurse could easily find him. Ah, yes, Max, he's in room 7012,
29:15and it's the kid's birthday today. Right now, his room is extremely noisy. His parents are here
29:22together, and a large number of nurses have joined them to celebrate. Are you a relative? The young
29:28nurse asked him with a flushed face, hoping to learn more about the handsome man in front of her.
29:34He smiled faintly. Just a friend. Thank you. After Blaine finished speaking, he thanked the nurse
29:41and walked straight to Max's room on the seventh floor. Blaine had a birthday party to get to.
29:47Thank you so much for watching! Don't forget, subscribe to my channel, comment and like.
