Chapter 573
“Here he comes!” A man clutching a medical kit hurried in.
The man appeared to be in his late twenties, mature and steady.
“Hurry up, or she’s going to get worse, and Colby will smash your hospital!”
“Then please, let him smash it. I’ve had enough of the 12–hour work schedule! I beg him, please, smash the hospital!”
Colby coldly said, “Move faster, or I’ll smash your head instead.”
William didn’t dare to joke around anymore. He immediately checked Sophie’s condition. After a brief examination, William was somewhat speechless. “Her fever’s a bit high, but that’s about it.”
Adler also looked at William with a speechless expression, “What else did you expect? Be glad she’s fine, or Colby might just get rid of
you.”
William cast a resentful look at Adler, making Adler’s skin crawl. “Why are you looking at me? Treat her! Where’s the fever reducer your were supposed to prepare?”
William took out the fever reducer from his medical kit. “Next time there’s such a minor issue, don’t call me. I have several surgeries haven’t performed yet. My schedule is terrifying. Sometimes, my boss makes me work overtime without overtime pay, and you’re having me fly all the way from afar! My boss…
“Your boss is right here. Talk to him.” Adler pointed to Gordon at the door.
Gordon, sitting in a wheelchair, watched William with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile. “I seem to have heard some complaints just
now.
William immediately sucked up. “Sir, how could I possibly complain? I could never complain, especially not about you. I’m your most loyal subordinate! The love–you–for–a–lifetime kind!”
Adler got goosebumps all over. Damn! How could such a handsome man suck up like this?
Adler was at a loss for words.
“Everyone, out”
Colby’s gaze hadn’t left Sophie, and perhaps because Adler and William had been too noisy earlier, his expression grew even colder.
“Let’s go, let’s go. Don’t disturb them”
Adler dragged William by the collar towards the door. William protested, “My medical kit!”
After Adler and William left, Gordon finally said lightly, “Let her rest well. Send her back tomorrow,”
“What else do you plan to do?”
The people from the Burke family had already come to mess with her, and Colby didn’t believe Gordon was oblivious to it.
Gordon’s face was expressionless, and he spoke calmly, “To change public opinion. Naturally, a lot of hard work is needed. If you really care about her, you should know what to do.”
Then, Gordon had the butler push him away from the quest room.
As the evening darkened,
was inside the Minton International villa, reading the news on the computer with a smirk.
Gattlin stood in front of Odie, saying, “We’ve investigated. The woman that night is named Sophie, a nominal manager at S Corporation. Before Russell Enterprise went bankrupt, she was considered one of Devonport’s most prominent socialites. Her marriage to James is in name only; currently, she’s recording a reality show on our island.”
“Sophie…”
Odie tapped his fingers on the desk, his smile deepening.
