She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor - Chapter 204

204: Breaking Off the Engagement, I Agree “Grandma Knox, I specifically brought Mia
here to apologize to everyone. Mia is impulsive, and I have seriously scolded her. I
hope you can understand.”
Old Lady Mrs. Knox was having a cheerful conversation w ith Hope Williams when she
looked up and saw the Fuller sisters, her gaze darkening instantly.
“Miss Fuller, Second Miss Walker is a lofty young lady, and our Knox family’s humble
abode cannot accommodate such a grand Buddha statue. I was just discussing with
your grandfather about calling off Alexander’s marriage to Second Miss Walker.”
Vivia’s fac e stiffened, “Grandma, this… The marriage alliance between the Fuller and
Knox families was set years ago and is now well - known. Suddenly calling it off doesn’t
seem appropriate.”
“There’s nothing inappropriate about it — I will explain to the media when the time
comes.”
The Knox family was extremely dissatisfied with Mia, almost desperate to break off the
engagement as soon as possible.

Vivia still maintained a proper smile, ignoring Old Lady Mrs. Knox’s words, and handed
Mia a glass of wine, “Maybe Grandma Knox is just speaking out of anger? If Grandma
Knox is still angry, let Mia drink three glasses as an apology.”
“Mia!” Vivia turned her head slightly.
Looking at Vivia, Mia bit her lip and stepped forward pitifully, “Grandma Knox, please
calm down. I apolo gize to you and the Knox family for my impulsive behavior today.”
After saying that, Mia drained the wine in her glass and then poured two more, forcing
herself to drink them down, “I hope you can forgive me. It really was just a moment of
impulsiveness, n ot intentional.”
“It wasn’t intentional yet you still acted out. What would it be if it was intentional?” Hope
Williams remarked indifferently.
Vivia tugged at her lips, seeing Hope look so frustrated that her back teeth were nearly
clenched in anger.
“Mis s Williams is right. When we get back, I will certainly discipline Mia well and ensure
such incidents never happen again.” )
Vivia turned to look at Old Lady Mrs. Knox, her face still wearing the most appropriate
smile, “Grandma, please don’t take it to hea rt because of the younger generation.”
Mia’s apology was so sincere, and she had lowered her posture enough that in this
setting, Old Lady Mrs. Knox would seem too aggressive if she said anything more.
Old Lady Mrs. Knox saw through Vivia’s intentions and snorted quietly, “Quick - witted,
aren’t we?”
Vivia smiled gently, “Grandma Knox wants to call off the wedding simply due to their
issues. Why not let them talk it out themselves and come to a resolution? If it indeed
doesn’t work out, then calling off the w edding is also fine.”
At that, Mia, looking conflicted, walked up to Alexander, “Alexander, can we talk alone
for a moment?”
Mia’s temper was evident as she had been infuriated just moments ago, and now she
was coming over to apologize with wine.
There’s s omething fishy going on when things don’t add up like this.
Hope Williams watched Mia’s every move quietly.
Alexander, with a heavy expression, followed Mia to the side.

“What do you want to say?” Alexander’s face was expressionless.
“Alexander, I know I’v e made many mistakes, and it’s only natural for you to want a
divorce,” Mia sighed softly, “I know you love Hope Williams, so if you want a divorce,
then let’s end it.”
Alexander’s eyes narrowed slightly, “What trick are you trying to play now?”
“I’m not, I really just want to let you go and free myself as well,” Mia said helplessly,
shaking her head sincerely. Picking up a glass of wine, she added, “Since we’re ending
the marriage, I’ll toast to you. If we can’t be husband and wife, being friends is also
g ood.”
Alexander’s gaze remained intensely on Mia, yet he couldn’t read anything from her
face.
It was as if she really had come to terms with it.
Alexander took the wine glass from Mia’s hand and downed it, “It better be.”
After speaking, Alexander turned and left.
A triumphant smile appeared on Mia’s face, and she exchanged a look with Vivia, who
smiled lightly.
…
“Miss Williams, Mr. Knox is looking for you for something.”
Hope Williams was already planning to leave, but a waiter suddenly stopped her.
Hope Williams turned around, “Alexander Knox is looking for me? Where is he?”
“Please follow me.”
“Wait a moment,” Hope Williams said coldly, “If he’s looking for me, why doesn’t he
come find me himself instead of sending you?”
“It’s like this, Miss Willia ms. Mr. Knox was looking for you but couldn’t find you, so he
instructed us to keep an eye out and inform you when we saw you,” the waiter
explained convincingly.
Hope Williams frowned slightly, scanned the surroundings, and as the waiter beckoned
her to f ollow, she walked with them.
The elevator reached the third floor.

Since the third floor was all rooms and everyone was gathered on the second floor, not
many people filled the third floor. As Hope Williams walked a few steps, she suddenly
stopped, “Are yo u sure Mr. Knox is looking for me?”
“Yes.”
Hope Williams’s face turned cold, knowing how thorough Alexander normally was;
under no circumstances would he arrange to meet her alone in a room at this kind of
event.
Realizing something was wrong, Hope William s turned to leave, but suddenly two men
in black appeared behind her, and a hand with a cloth suddenly covered her mouth and
nose.
Hope Williams’s vision blurred slightly as she felt her strength ebbing away, losing
consciousness almost instantly.
The men revealed sinister smiles, “Carry her in.”
Hope Williams was carried into a room where only a warm yellow light was lit. She was
thrown onto the bed, and the men quickly exited.
A restless Alexander Knox stepped out of the bathroom only to see a voluptuous
woman lying on the bed.
With a sliver of sanity, he approached, his pupils dilated — it was Hope Williams.
He immediately turned away, his hands pressed against the wall, his Adam’s apple
moved, his fists clenched tightly, his eyes closing deeply as the heat within him surged.
The room was filled with a woman’s faint body fragrance continuously entering his
nostrils, incessantly overruling his reason.
His body’s restlessness needed release; his burning gaze was terribly tangled as it fell
on Hope Williams.
He reached out, his fingers tenderly touching Hope Williams’s delicate, pale cheek.
Then, he abruptly withdrew his hand and harshly slapped himself.
Wake up.
If he did this, she would hate him for the rest of her life.
But …
He really wanted her, so badly he could go insane.

He liked Hope Williams, very much.
At that moment, in the same room, she was right there on his bed.
He knew he had been drugged, it was a trap, but he couldn’t restrain himself at that
moment.
After tonight, Hope Williams would be his, a voice in his mind told him.
He wanted her, indeed he wanted this woman.
Her allure deeply attracted him.
If she became his woman, he would marry her, he would be responsible.
He had thought through all the reaso ns, unable to resist, he leaned down and his kiss
fell on Hope Williams’s neck…
