Chapter 1120: Chapter 1092: Asking Dr. Clark for Help (Update at 2000 Monthly Tickets) Chapter 1120: Chapter 1092: Asking Dr. Clark for Help (Update at 2000 Monthly Tickets) These few sentences seed like a playful excuse for her earlier behavior of burning the pot, but upon closer reflection, wasn’t this just comforting his sadness tonight?
Kiara’s wisdom is definitely incomparable to that of an ordinary woman. She’s a strong woman, but when the ti cos to be gentle, she never falters. Camden happily drank down this wave of love and chicken soup for the soul from his wife.
He scooped her up horizontally and chuckled against her forehead, “Just to beat around the bush and say this to , you burned the pot on purpose?”
“Uh… please call a virtuous woman.” Kiara looked guiltily at the pot that had t its end.
It really wasn’t on purpose.
She was earnestly preparing a hangover soup for her man, but for so reason, it turned out like this, and Camden clearly misunderstood sothing.
Seeing his moved expression, Kiara decided to go along with the misunderstanding, let’s not expose what’s already understood!
The next day, Kiara had just co out of the school when she saw Baron at the gate before reaching the parking lot.
Kiara stopped to greet him, “What a coincidence, we et again.”
Last night, Camden nearly turned into a lancholic poet after drinking with this man. Kiara understood that only soone highly regarded by Mario Yuno would react like that, and so she felt a warm enthusiasm for Baron that she didn’t have for others.
“It’s not a coincidence, I specifically ca to wait for you. My Boss Lady wants to have a chat with you.”
Baron gestured toward the Extended Cadillac behind him, and Kiara nodded, getting into the car without hesitation.
Baron’s identity was that of a bodyguard for the Lee Clan; soone else was driving. Kiara sat in the luxury car, which would turn heads 100% of the ti, and remained unruffled, her attitude unchanged.
Baron couldn’t help but think of last night, one’s wife is no ordinary woman.
After experiencing the thugs attempting to smash the car last night and witnessing one fight along with another person, this woman just sat steadily in the car, her deanor just like now, neither startled nor happy, neither angry nor worried. She was composed but not numb. This Extended Cadillac is one of the few in the entire country, but she acted as if she couldn’t see it, settling in the back seat very calmly without even a glance.
Moreover, after he introduced himself and stated his purpose, she didn’t ask any further questions and just nodded to get in the car. This composure made Baron a bit more understanding.
“I think I understand why the Boss chose you for Old Father Jackson’s treatnt.” The unsaid part was, he also understood why one would choose this woman.
Indeed, she carried the deanor of a great doctor, unaffected by honor or disgrace.
“Thank you for the complint.” Kiara smiled slightly.
“How is Old Father Jackson’s condition? Are you confident?” Baron asked in a typically nonchalant tone.
Kiara still smiled, her reply deliberate but ambiguous.
“Indescribable.”
That was her way of saying she didn’t want to talk about it. If Baron continued to probe, it would be quite tactless, so he didn’t press further.
Kiara closed her eyes for a quick rest, but her mind harbored doubts.
Baron was skilled in his day and could get along with her husband, which ant that he should understand the rules well and not be a blabbermouth. It was unusual for him to ask her about such confidential matters of the household. To ordinary people, this might seem like simple gossip, but from Kiara’s point of view, this behavior was a bit abnormal.
Everyone has their own personality, and most behavior unfolds along the trajectory of that personality. If today Mario Yuno were playing the role of the Baron, he would definitely not have asked himself an extra word, she doesn’t believe the Baron would not know the depth of making such a mistake.
Kiara felt that this matter was a bit strange and gradually took the Baron to heart, but she didn’t say anything more.
These people did not take Kiara directly to the Lee Clan estate but instead took her to the branch office established by the Lee Clan in Linville, where Mada Aurora Dell received her in her office.
Kiara had seen Mada Aurora Dell yesterday and thought that this woman was just an ordinary noble lady, living a stable life at ho relying on her husband’s family business. However, upon seeing her today, she realized that Mada Aurora Dell was not an ordinary person.
Rather than calling it an office, it would be more accurate to call it a laboratory. Mada Aurora Dell wore a white lab coat and was surrounded by a group of similarly dressed people, conducting experints around a microscope. She only took off her mask and ca out to see Kiara when she heard that she had arrived.
“I apologize for the inconvenience, Dr. Clark, making you co here to find , it must have been trouble for you.”
Outside the laboratory was a small, independent space that served as Mada Aurora Dell’s private lab; compared to her status, this office was a bit crude.
The Secretary brought in two cups of coffee and then left.
“Did you ask to co here regarding the Old Master’s treatnt?” Kiara ignored Mada Aurora Dell’s attire and also did not inquire about her position within the company. This natural deanor greatly pleased Mada Aurora Dell.
No wonder Dr. Clark, despite her young age, had such a resounding reputation. Apart from everything else, just seeing her professional attitude of not asking questions that were none of her business was quite important. Families like theirs especially disliked people who were overly curious and talkative.
“Yes, the sky was too dark last night, and we didn’t have a chance to talk more about it, so I wanted to ask you today about the specific situation of our Old Father’s illness.”
Kiara recounted the consultation from the day before, the gist of it being that there was no significant issue, and if the Old Master was willing to cooperate, he could recover in about a month or so.
Hearing that a recovery was possible, Mada Aurora Dell’s face visibly brightened with joy. However, hearing that it would take a month, her brows furrowed.
“A month is a bit long.”
“The elder has so relatively closed-off thoughts, as you know. He isn’t all that cooperative with treatnt. If I want to achieve results, I must progress step by step.”
After listening, Mada Aurora Dell first nodded, then shook her head, before pulling out a checkbook from a drawer. She quickly wrote a number on it and then pushed it across the table in front of Kiara.
“What do you an?” Kiara did not reach for it, nor did she take more than a glance at the number written on it.
“Here’s $100,000. If Dr. Clark can shorten the treatnt to within two weeks, I’ll add another $100,000.”
Kiara looked at her calmly, “Give a reason to shorten the ti.”
“Our stay in Linville is already quite short, as you know, we are here for tourism. We can’t stay in Linville for too long. The Old Master is always suspecting he’s sick or feeling uncomfortable, which is very inconvenient for our itinerary. You’re aware of what kind of family we are; ti cannot be bought with gold. So the faster you can provide treatnt, the better it is for us. I hope Dr. Clark can demonstrate your dical skills and help our Old Master recover to normal as soon as possible.”
The words were reasoned and full of sincerity.
Kiara harbored so doubts, yet her response left room for possibility.
“I can only say I’ll do my best, but psychological therapy requires the cooperation of many factors. It’s not as simple as just doing what I want. I’ll do my best, but exactly how long it will take still depends on the Old Master’s adaptability. I cannot accept this check for now.”
Hearing her response, Mada Aurora Dell’s expression obviously relaxed a lot; the fact that Kiara spoke this way ant there was still a chance to shorten the ti. This was excellent news. She hurriedly stuffed the check into Kiara’s hands.
“Dr. Clark, please don’t be polite with . You must accept this money. As long as it resolves my doubts, I will be extrely grateful in the future.”
