Although his mother's words didn't apply to Adam, Adam still decided to put up with it.

In the love-hate relationship between nurses and doctors, the young intern had an unforgettable experience, described by nurses as "the Jade Emperor being beaten by the monkey."

You're amazing, but you've been an intern doctor and even asked us to give you injections.

You're awesome, but you've been an intern doctor, and now you're asking us for advice?

You are authoritative, but you were once an intern and have been honest with us...

Therefore, senior nurses have a strong sense of superiority over interns, and they can even stand up to Attending Physician or department heads without fear.

There's a nurses' association; they can organize a strike.

As a mother who is a senior nurse, saying this to her son who is an intern brings her double the sense of superiority and joy.

Although Adam doesn't belong to the ' Bambi ' that Mom talks about, well... you're pregnant again, so as long as you're happy.

After resolving his mother's health issue, Adam relaxed considerably and took advantage of the last week before his busy schedule to enjoy a few days of fun with his family.

"Pfft! What?!"

Adam spat out his drink when he heard his assistant's findings.

That's right!

Adam had assistants, but as his wealth increased and his investments became more complex, he lacked the time and inclination to manage these tedious tasks, so he naturally needed to hire someone to manage them.

In addition, a small book production company was specially opened to help MAX, and someone had to manage it.

So a few years ago, Adam started a small investment company, bringing all his investments under it, and hired a professional female assistant to handle the specific work.

Of course, to prevent the assets from being embezzled, Adam gave her very limited authority, only handling general administrative tasks such as filing taxes, monitoring changes in the equity and stock prices of investment companies, booking airline tickets, and running errands.

Adam has a firm grasp on the most important investments and finances, holding them for the long term and dealing with them in a concentrated manner from time to time, so there are no major problems.

The female assistant's name is Ada Tout. She is of average appearance, but she is skilled in her work and has no ambition. She is very satisfied with the high salary Adam gives her. The key is that it is not 007 or 996, but 955. She lives a very carefree life.

"Boss, you heard me right."

The female assistant Ada, was sprayed in the face. She looked at her boss with some resentment, and her eyes changed from strange to gloating. "Danielle, whom you asked me to investigate, did indeed act in movies, the Girl Next Door series. Here are the series of videotapes. Do you want to watch them?"

"Of course."

Adam took the videotape and turned it on. He discovered that the girl next door was indeed Gabe's girlfriend. He turned off the videotape the moment she transformed, his expression somewhat unpleasant.

He wasn't Barney, and he didn't have any unusual fondness for the Phil Valley actresses; at this moment, he felt nothing but disgust.

How could such a strange thing be incorporated into such a happy Duncan family?

"Boss, what do we do now?"

Ada's Eight Trigrams Way.

"What to do? Just deal with it!"

Adam said irritably, "Go book plane tickets for my parents for tomorrow. Don't book Gabe's; I want to have a good talk with him."

He couldn't let his mother know about this, even though he was furious, he had to hold back until she and the others left.

"Okay, boss."

Ada responded and left Adam's apartment.

The next day.

My parents went back to Texas.

Danielle returned to California.

The third son Gabe, was left behind by Adam.

"Adam, did you need something from me?"

The third brother Gabe, looking at Adam expectantly.

How did you and Danielle meet?

Adam asked.

"That's how we met, on campus, it was love at first sight, she had a certain charm..."

The third brother Gabe, was in a daze, but unfortunately, he lacked education and couldn't even utter a "fuck" at this moment, so he remained speechless.

"The girl-next-door vibe?"

Adam's gaze was strange.

"Right!"

The third brother Gabe his hands. "She's the girl next door I've always dreamed of. Unlike my neighbor, who's an annoying old lady who's always giving me trouble."

"That's because you're always causing trouble for others, okay?"

Adam quipped, "So, you're serious about her?"

"Of course I'm serious."

The third brother Gabe, exclaimed, "I'm serious about every relationship."

"..."

Adam's lips twitched, but he felt a sense of relief.

Because of this seriousness, he felt a strange sense of familiarity. The truth that Danielle was an art star from San Fernando Valley should not be a big blow to the serious third brother Gabe.

Do you know what she does?

"Yes, I know them, they make movies."

The third brother Gabe, said matter-of-factly, "Speaking of which, he's my senior. Maybe we can even work together on a movie someday."

His art and design background can be applied to game development, and naturally, it can also be applied to filmmaking. Working behind the scenes is actually quite normal for him.

"A collaboration on a film project?"

Adam was both amused and exasperated. "Watch her movies first before you say that to me."

He then turned on the videotape and let his third brother Gabe, watch it. He then went back to his bedroom and called home to check if his parents had arrived safely.

Bon Voyage.

Adam chatted with his parents for a while, and after hanging up the phone, he felt something was off. After thinking about it, he realized that after so much time, his youngest son Gabe, hadn't reacted at all in the living room. This wasn't normal.

So he quickly came out.

Then he twitched the corner of his mouth.

But instead of crying and shouting "No!", the third brother Gabe, was sitting there, staring intently at the video camera, watching with great interest.

"Did I play the wrong videotape?"

Adam was startled and quickly went over to take a look. He found that it was indeed the girl next door, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Then he looked at the third brother Gabe, with a strange expression.

"Gabe, are you alright?"

"What do you want?"

The third brother Gabe, pointed at the indescribable image and laughed, "Look, this is my girlfriend! Isn't her acting amazing?! God, I'm actually dating an artist from the San Fernando Valley! This is incredible!"

"..."

Adam was speechless. He carefully observed Gabe's eyes and expression and realized that his happiness was genuine, and this wasn't the first time he had seen him like this...

"Holy shit! Could my third brother be Barney 2.0?"

Adam deliberately kept Gabby, the third son, Gabe an extra day to observe him secretly. He was both pleased and worried, so he asked his female assistant Ada, to book Gabe's flight back to California.

The good thing is that the third brother, Gabe, really doesn't care; his mental fortitude is something even Adam can only dream of...

The worrying thing is that this is clearly another Barney Stinson, genuinely believing that dating an artist from the San Fernando Valley is a wonderful thing.

The Duncan family are all honest and kind people, how could they raise a clone of Barney?

Adam couldn't help but regret sending his third son Gabe, to study in California; this was going too far with freedom.

Yes, that must be it!
