Chapter 26

Author: Brave Veteran
Angela was never one to trust numbers and data printed on a piece of paper. Countless companies had approached her, seeking a business deal, and she didn't turn any of them down right off the bat.

She'd ignored her family's objections and spent half her fortune establishing various charitable foundations to present herself to the relevant authorities, all in a bid to secure this project. She'd done it to prove that if the project was given to her, it would truly be implemented and used for the

    Camilla sat there blankly as she stared vacantly into the distance.Jeremy couldn't help looking up at her. However, she was wearing sunglasses and a mask, so he could not see her expression.He merely hesitated for a moment before asking, "Is there anything else?"Camilla finally recovered. She hung her head abruptly and pushed her sunglasses up with the back of her hand so that she could wipe her eyes.Finally, she shook her head. "I-I just want to sit here for a while."Jeremy was taken aback.The woman's hoarse, tearful voice showed how helpless she felt.For some reason, Jeremy felt that the woman seemed strangely familiar. Perhaps he'd met a similar patient in the past.He thought for a moment and said comfortingly, "It's normal for you to experience changes in your mood while you're pregnant. No matter what, you realized that you were unwell and came to the hospital to take care of yourself and check on the baby. That already makes you a very good expectant mother."Dur

    Jeremy felt doubtful, but he called for the patient anyway. Perhaps there was no available slot at the obstetrics department.He worked in the general outpatient department, so it wasn't as if he could not examine pregnant women.It was just that he did not have as much equipment as the obstetrics department, and it was less convenient. Julia had not closed the door behind her earlier and had left it ajar. It was pushed open with a creak. A woman walked in with her medical file. She was wearing thick, bulky clothes and a knitted hat. She wore sunglasses and a cloth face mask, and she was wrapped up snugly from head to toe.There was a flash of surprise in Jeremy's eyes, but it disappeared very quickly. There were very few patients like the woman, but he had met some before. When Jeremy was in Greenvale, famous public figures would occasionally come to the hospital dressed like that for consultations because they were terrified of being recognized.However, people like them ha

    Julia understood what he was implying. Perhaps there was always a painful story behind every major breakthrough.If Jeremy had had a choice, he would have preferred being an ordinary person whose mother hadn't passed away.She carefully put the prescription away and nodded lightly. "Thank you."Jeremy could see that her mood had improved slightly, so he smiled and said, "Of course, I do have some talent. Otherwise, I wouldn't have passed your assessment and been able to stay at Everwell."Although he was wearing a mask, his eyes crinkled with a smile.He was showing off slightly, but what he had said earlier had set the tone well, putting Julia at ease rather than annoying her.Jeremy was someone who had endured suffering in life yet remained cheerful and energetic.Julia felt influenced by him. She was amused and asked, "Are you taking a jab at me for trying to make things difficult for you?"Jeremy waved a hand, pretending to look alarmed. "I would never dare to do that."Ju

    Over at Everwell Hospital, Jeremy was in the consultation room. He had just finished examining a patient and was in a good mood.As long as things were peaceful at home, he would have the motivation to do anything out here. Jane had been angry yesterday, and it had weighed on him all day. Jane treated him so kindly. He really shouldn't have made her angry.Luckily, he was very professional, so it did not affect his work. Despite this, he had still felt irritated and nervous. Jeremy stretched and clicked his mouse as he began the next consultation with a patient. The door to the hospital room creaked open, but the person who walked in surprised Jeremy."Dr. Falken?"Julia walked in. She was wearing casual clothes and a mask. She sat down slowly at the consultation table before saying, "I'm here to get a check-up for pneumonia. I was exposed to a high concentration of allergens yesterday, and I kept coughing from time to time at night."Jeremy did not ask further questions a

    Angela was a great assistant.Jane thought deeply for a moment. Just as she was about to speak, a special notification came in on her phone.Jane was startled. That was the special ringtone that she had set for Jeremy.She thought about how he had insisted on sleeping in separate rooms last night, and her temper flared at once. She wanted to ignore him, but she could not stop herself from taking out her phone and glancing at it.With just one glance, the annoyed expression on her face suddenly turned sunny, and a faint smile appeared on her beautiful face."I told Wendy that she doesn't need to cook dinner today. Do you want to eat at the restaurant downstairs tonight? Just you and me."Almost instantly, Jane stood up and picked up her bag. "I won't be working late tonight, Angela. I'm leaving now."Angela was startled, and her brow wrinkled."Did something happen? I was going to tell you about the plans for after we merge the companies. We're short on time—"Before she could

    The busy office building was located in the city center of Jasmere.On one of the floors, Angela sat in the CEO's office. She was leaning back in her chair, deep in thought.Jane sat opposite her, but she seemed rather distracted as she ran her fingers through her hair.Angela looked exasperated. "Jane, I've already taken care of the businesses you own, and you do have quite a substantial force here in Jasmere. However, it feels like there's some kind of barrier. We aren't able to break through into the circle of influential families."Getting into contact with the Griffins is even more out of the question. If you are sure that you have to go to the Griffins to cure your disorder, you've got to pull yourself together and make some kind of plan."Upon hearing this, Jane finally seemed to come back to her senses. She straightened up slightly. "Yes. The circle of families in Jasmere has its own rules. Most outsiders can't get in."As she spoke, there was a flash of hesitation on her
