Carter

“I disagree.”

Carlos walked over to Mrs.

Carter’s side and sat down.

Carlos grabbed Mrs.

Carter’s hand and found it was very cold and slightly trembling.

It was then he realized, over the years, due to her illness, wrinkles had appeared on her face, and white hair had crept into her temples.

Mrs.

Carter, who was even a year younger than her husband, Evan Palmer, now looked a decade older than him.

Mother was no longer the dominant businesswoman she once was.

“Carlos, you don’t understand the situation.

Don’t talk nonsense; your mother’s illness is very serious right now, and she must be hospitalized.”

Evan Palmer hadn’t expected Carlos to return so quickly; it must have been Emily Parker who informed him.

“It’s precisely because I know my mother’s condition is critical that I refuse to entrust her to unreliable people,”

Carlos said with a cold laugh.

Doctor Reed’s expression stiffened.

“How dare you speak to Doctor Reed like this?” Evan Palmer scolded.

“Mother has always been treated by Doctor Reed over the years.

Yet not only has he failed to help her recover, her health has even deteriorated further, and he didn’t even know she was poisoned.

I think his team should be fired.”

“Do you know what you’re saying?

Doctor Reed’s team is the most renowned medical team in the medical field.

If you dismiss them, who do you plan to have treat your mother?” Evan Palmer rebuked angrily.

Doctor Reed also spoke urgently,

“My previous treatment direction was indeed flawed, as I hadn’t encountered similar cases before.

But this time, I’ve diagnosed your mother’s condition, and I can start the treatment.

Your mother’s condition doesn’t suit overseas treatment either.

Her body might not withstand the long flight.”

“Mother, I’ve recently met a miraculous healer known as the Ghost Doctor.

Her medical skills are extremely profound.

I’ve been trying to find her and will bring her to treat you as soon as I do.

I believe that with her medical skills, she can certainly cure you.

Before that, don’t stay at Cloud Lake Villa, stay in my villa instead.”

Carlos, who didn’t trust anyone at the moment, could only pin his hopes on the Ghost Doctor.

“Ridiculous!

You’re practically joking with your mother’s life.

What Ghost Doctor?

I haven’t even heard of her.

Just the name alone tells me she’s no good.

I don’t agree with letting your mother stay at your place.”

Evan glared at Carlos—this kid was his nemesis, always opposing him since he came of age.

“Enough arguing,” Mrs.

Carter sighed,

“I won’t bother you and your wife anymore.”

Evan’s face showed smug satisfaction; Mrs.

Carter clearly trusted him and Doctor Reed more.

“However, Doctor Reed, you and your medical team can take a break for now.

I want to meet the Ghost Doctor that Carlos mentioned.”

Mrs.

Carter had made her decision.

Mrs.

Carter knew her health was declining day by day; she wanted to live a little longer, at least long enough to see the birth of Carlos and Emily’s child…

“Also, regarding the company business, your grandfather and I have already discussed it.

Starting tomorrow, Carlos will be promoted to Deputy CEO and will manage company affairs together with you, Evan.”

Evan’s face changed upon hearing this; his look towards Carlos was filled with hostility.

“Mother, I will bring the Ghost Doctor to treat you as soon as possible.”

Carlos helped Mrs.

Carter to rest.

Evan, with a dark expression, saw Doctor Reed and his team out.

At the end of her shift, Emily Parker made a phone call to Oliver Ross, telling him he didn’t need to pick her up.

She boarded the bus heading towards her apartment.

As the bus wobbled, Emily leaned back in her seat.

These last few days, with Mrs.

Carter ill, Carlos would likely be at Cloud Lake Villa accompanying Mrs.

Carter, investigating the poison.

However, the perpetrator would not have left any clues for them to find.

“Who would have poisoned Mrs.

Carter?”

Emily rubbed her stomach.

But because of the child inside her, Mrs.

Carter would be the child’s future grandmother; for the child’s sake, she could not just sit by and ignore Mrs.

Carter’s plight.

Thinking, Emily took out her pager, and as soon as she turned it on, several messages came in, one of which read,

“The Carter Family in Capital has issued a Bounty Order, offering ten million, urgently seeking the Ghost Doctor for a consultation.”

Emily sent a message back.

“Tell the Carter Family, I can treat this disease; I want twenty million.”
