Cleaver Slashes Thoughts

Night falls.

Medical Center.

Why aren't you coming over yet?

Monica called for the third time, full of complaints.

"I'll be back in a bit."

Adam said apologetically, "You know, I can't leave the hospital. Since the high-speed multi-car pileup, there have been more and more patients."

"Hurry up."

Monica lowered her voice, sounding almost frantic. "Chandler and I were so embarrassed facing Paige and Karen."

Where is Phoebe?

Adam exclaimed in surprise.

Do you think she can be of any help?

Monica retorted, "It's good enough if you don't make things worse."

"Hehe."

Adam smiled knowingly.

After finishing up the car accident, Juno asked Karen to go to Adam's apartment to help Monica prepare the Thanksgiving dinner.

Karen, huh.

Nobody can handle it except Juno.

After nightfall.

Escorted by bodyguards, Paige, who had also arrived, was a stunningly beautiful young woman.

Phoebe, on the other hand, was trying to liven things up.

Unfortunately, she herself was somewhat neurotic, speaking incoherently and jumping between different points of focus, which only made Monica roll her eyes repeatedly, but did not change Paige and Karen at all.

One is Jingjing busy in the kitchen.

One of them walked straight into Adam's study and closed the door.

Finally, Phoebe habitually shrugged, resigned to her fate, and said, "Whatever, I'm not going to put up with this anymore." She lay down on the sofa and started chatting with the young policeman named Gene on her phone.

My helpful assistant, Lisa, is off work again today.

It is Thanksgiving, after all.

If we don't give it another day, it really won't make sense.

One can imagine Monica and Chandler standing to one side, watching this scene. Monica rubbed her hands together, while Chandler gave a wry smile. How awkward it must have been for them to look at each other.

Stop laughing and come here right now!

Monica exclaimed.

"In that case, I'll let Juno go back first."

Adam pondered.

"Good!"

Monica said happily, "That solves the problem."

She had met Juno a few times and had a very good impression of Juno.

Hang up the phone.

"Juno, you should go back first."

Adam said to Juno, who had already toured the entire Medical Center.

"It's getting late."

Juno raised her hand to check the time. "Let's go back together. It's not a big deal to save lives in this short time."

"All right."

Adam also raised his hand to check the time.

It's already 8 PM.

If another major surgery is needed, it will be past midnight.

It wouldn't be right for me not to be there since we'd all agreed to spend Thanksgiving together.

And today has already been a very fruitful day.

I earned half a month's worth of money in one day.

That's enough.

After tidying up, I left the hospital building.

Adam drove Juno back to the apartment.

"Oh, you're back too."

Monica was overjoyed to see Adam.

"Since you've spoken, I think I should come back as soon as possible."

Adam joked.

"Don't joke around."

Monica, however, wasn't having any of it. "If my words were effective, I wouldn't have had to make three phone calls. It must have been Juno who sent you back, right?"

As he spoke, he hugged Juno.

"Hi, Juno, long time no see."

Hi, Monica.

Juno hugged Monica and then greeted Chandler, who was standing there smiling, "Hi, Chandler."

"I'll go and call Paige out."

As Adam walked toward the study, he said with a smile, "Everyone's here, let's get started."

"Hi, Paige."

Juno looked at Paige with a smile.

Paige nodded to her, her attitude somewhat indifferent.

Juno didn't mind at all, and invited everyone to sit down. With just a few words, she made everyone feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze.

Even Paige stared at her in surprise and, unusually, spoke a few words to her.

A long table was already laden with all sorts of delicious food, with the large platter of turkey in the center being particularly eye-catching.

Let's not even talk about the taste.

But it's quite substantial and has a glossy sheen.

Adam and Juno sat at either end of the narrow side.

Paige sat next to Adam.

Karen and Phoebe sat on either side of Juno.

Monica and Chandler sat facing each other in the middle.

Phoebe was already eating the turkey that Adam had packed up.

It seems so.

She absolutely loved the turkey.

Emmm.

The deeper the love, the deeper the hate!

Because Adam was the connecting link between everyone, he also talked with each of them, chatting about interesting things that had happened in their lives over the past period of time.

But soon.

Juno naturally replaced Adam as the focus of the gathering.

Monica and Phoebe actively communicated with Juno about life and relationships.

Chandler seems to have returned to his youthful self, from a greasy married man with weak legs, to the one who used to mock the Little Prince. He's in great spirits and can spout humorous jokes that could be published in magazines.

Karen looked both happy and adoring.

Of course, he would also glance at Paige, who was no longer so Juno -based, from time to time, with a hint of wariness.

And he glared at Adam.

Adam was baffled, but too lazy to think about it further.

Anyway, Juno is in charge.

All he had to do was enjoy the food, occasionally join in the conversation, and make light of the situation with Juno's teasing revelations, Monica's laughter, and others' agreement.

It was very easy.

It even made him think that even if he invited his good friends Heather, Max, Caroline, Kate, Robin, and others, the atmosphere would still be just as good as Juno's if she was willing to help.

Emmm.

That thought was instantly extinguished by the hatchet.

Adam was quite self-aware.

After several rounds of drinks...

Ring ring.

The phone rang.

"Lily?"

Adam answered the call.

Everyone looked over.

"Adam".

On the other end of the phone, Lily's panicked voice came through.

"What's wrong?"

Adam asked with concern, "Didn't you go back to Marshall's hometown for Thanksgiving with him?"

"I ran away all by myself."

On the other end of the phone, Lily said with a sob in her voice, "15 pounds! Adam, that's terrifying!"

A while later.

Adam had just finished hearing the whole story.

Lily went back with Marshall to Thanksgiving.

The Ericksen Family wives, led by Marshall's mother, are preparing a Thanksgiving feast.

Just as the conversation turned to having children, the roasted turkey was served.

Marshall's mother pointed to the huge turkey and casually said, "When I was pregnant with my son Marshall, he was a chubby 15-pound boy, and he was even bigger than this turkey."

You need to know.

Turkeys are already very large.

The Ericksen Family are all large, so they bought the king turkey.

When Lily saw the enormous plate of turkey in front of her, and then heard that the Erickson family's child she was pregnant with was even bigger than that, she cried and drove off.

Because her period was late and she kept feeling nauseous and vomiting.

While she was calling Adam, she was buying a pregnancy test at a convenience store.

The thought of having such an outrageous thing stuffed into her lower abdomen made her feel like she was going to collapse.

Don't worry.

Adam, both amused and exasperated, comforted her, "The children of the Ericksen Family are a bit big, but you'll be fine. Not long ago, our hospital delivered quintuplets."

15 pounds, that's about the weight of twins, um, triplets, not as exaggerated as you might imagine.

Are the quintuplets and their mother safe and sound?

On the other end of the phone, Lily seemed a little better.

"Well."

Adam was speechless for a moment.

I secretly regretted using that example.

One of the quintuplets died, and the rest had various problems, causing their mother to become depressed.

"Waaaaah!"

Lily was very sensitive at that moment, and without Adam even answering, she burst into tears.
