Chapter 80 - 80 80 New Work Has Arrived
80: Chapter 80 New Work Has Arrived 80: Chapter 80 New Work Has Arrived Over the phone, Sophie Parker’s gesture of goodwill hit Rainny White like a pie from heaven, leaving her dazed.
She was stunned for a good while, hardly able to believe what she had heard.
“Sister Sophie Parker, you’re not joking, are you?
You’re really willing to help me?”
“Of course, it’s true.
I felt a connection with you the moment we met, and I’ve always wanted a sister, unfortunately, I only have an elder sister, and as you’ve seen, our relationship is pretty terrible.
Taking such a big risk to help me this time, I don’t know how to repay you.
I would be really happy to help you regain your sight.”
Sophie Parker’s words left Rainny White at a loss for a moment.
After some thought, she felt that owing Sophie Parker such a big favor might not be a good thing,
“Sister Sophie Parker, maybe I should think about it some more.”
“Do you mean you want to discuss it with your family first?”
Sophie Parker probed, wanting to know how far things had progressed between Carlos and Rainny White.
With hesitation, Rainny White whispered,
“Actually, I don’t really have any family left.
My father passed away many years ago, and at home, there’s only my disabled mother and a brother.
Here in Capital, aside from you, I have another very good friend.”
“A very good friend?
You’re not talking about that Brother Carter you’re always mentioning, are you?
He’s your boyfriend, right?”
Rainny White’s secret thoughts were exposed, and her face reddened even more.
“No, that’s not it.
Brother Carter has just been very good to me, taking care of me all the time.”
“Then about this matter, maybe you shouldn’t tell him just yet.
You’re so pretty, your Brother Carter must really like you.
If your eyes are also cured, it would be a nice surprise.”
Upon hearing this, Rainny White thought Sophie Parker made a fair point.
“The transplant surgery must cost a lot of money, right?
Once I earn money in the future, I will definitely repay you.”
“We don’t need to be so formal with each other.
Let’s settle this then, come to People’s Hospital immediately, and I’ll have my boyfriend pick you up.”
After securing Rainny White’s affirmative response, Sophie Parker revealed a smile of malice, as if a plot had succeeded.
Her progress with Adam Willow was going smoothly, and Emily Parker happened to have lost her job.
As long as Rainny White’s vision was restored, Emily Parker’s plan to take advantage of her proximity and win favor would be utterly ruined; she wouldn’t stand a chance against Rainny White.
Sophie Parker chuckled coldly and phoned Adam Willow to arrange a surgery for a ‘good friend’…
Outside the police station, after Carlos sent Rainny White off, he contacted Oliver Ross.
“Boss, the VP’s daily schedule is quite simple.
Aside from going to the office, playing golf, and visiting the racecourse, there’s nothing else,”
Oliver Ross had investigated Evan Palmer’s daily routine but found nothing odd.
Evan Palmer seemed to be as devoted to Mrs.
Carter as ever.
Carlos mused,
“Keep someone on him.
Also, there’s something else I need you to do.
Look into Henry Parker, that is, Emily Parker’s father.
The more detailed the information, the better.”
On the other end of the phone, Oliver Ross was clearly taken aback.
The boss wants to investigate his own father-in-law?
Oliver Ross didn’t ask any further and immediately dispatched someone to investigate Henry Parker.
Carlos scoffed.
He was fiercely protective; no one could bully the mother of his child!
The day after leaving People’s Hospital, Emily Parker arranged to meet Evelyn Hanson to take over the small clinic left by her mother.
“Emily, you’re practically a saint.
You’ve really done me a huge favor this time, convincing a major client like Mrs.
Carter to come to Eastern Hospital.”
As soon as Emily boarded the car, Evelyn Hanson pressed her palms together and bowed to her.
Evelyn Hanson’s family clinic had not been doing well over the years and was on the brink of closing down.
Unexpectedly, Mrs.
Carter had graced them with her presence, choosing to transfer to their hospital.
Because of this, Eastern Hospital was both excited and worried.
They were excited because Mrs.
Carter’s arrival spelled potential success in treating her, which could secure both reputation and research funding for the hospital in the future.
At the same time, the hospital was concerned about providing adequate care for Mrs.
Carter.
“Don’t worry about the treatment; just have the hospital take good care of my mother-in-law’s daily needs.
A doctor will be visiting in a few days.”
Evelyn Hanson agreed readily, driving and soon arriving near the small clinic.
“Emily, the clinic your mother left you is right in front of City First Middle School, which is an excellent location.”
Evelyn Hanson exclaimed in surprise.
After becoming pregnant, Emily didn’t have the same energy as before, so much so that she hadn’t even visited the small clinic she had reclaimed from her father.
“I think now that you’ve married Carlos, the Carter Family being so wealthy, and you’re pregnant, there’s no need for you to work so hard.
It might be better to sell the clinic to someone else,”
Evelyn Hanson suggested, eyeing Emily’s belly.
“The Carter Family is the Carter Family.
The clinic is what my mother left for me.
I think she wouldn’t want to sell it to someone else.”
Emily didn’t mention to Evelyn Hanson that she’d arranged to marry Carlos.
The car stopped in front of Capital No.1 High School.
City First Middle School is a key high school in Capital; Adam Willow’s sister went to school there.
“I’m going to look for a parking spot; it’s hard to find parking around here.
According to the GPS, the Sunshine Clinic is just diagonally across from City First Middle School.”
Evelyn Hanson went to park the car.
After getting out of the car, Emily followed the direction Evelyn had mentioned.
There were stationery stores, bookstores, small supermarkets, and eateries near the entrance of City First Middle School.
Emily spotted Sunshine Clinic at a glance.
The clinic wasn’t large, measuring about forty or fifty square meters.
Emily stepped into the small clinic, greeted by the pervasive smell of disinfectant.
The walls all around were dusty, seemingly long overdue for repainting, and a clock hung on the wall.
The clinic had three or four counters, including an infusion room.
The counters displayed a variety of Western medicines, but what was most prominent was the arrangement of family planning supplies, cigarettes, and alcoholic beverages on top of the counters.
