Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife-Chapter 24
Chapter 24: Chapter 24
Rose has done so much for the Harris family, but what have they done for her as children in return?
Caden coldly asked, "If you really cared about Grace, you would have come when the nurse called you at 9 am. Why did you wait until now?"
"We, we had some stuff to deal with..."
Mainly, Olga had a spa date with some posh ladies and Attlee was off playing golf with some high–ups from his company...
By the time evening rolled around, the housemaid had already prepared dinner. Of course, they gotta eat while it’s hot!
So they only rushed over after finishing their meal.
"Because there are things to deal with, do you not care about the life and death of the old lady?"
Olga and Attlee felt extremely awkward hearing Caden’s words.
"I can sign the transfer papers, but I need to inform you that the médical resources and doctors at other hospitals are nowhere near as good as Hope hospital. Once Grace leaves Hope hospital, I predict she fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
won’t last a week. You should prepare yourselves mentally."
Upon hearing this, Attlee’s expression became serious, "Dr. Caden, is there any other better solution? Such as ensuring Grace’s health when she leaves the hospital?"
"There is."
Upon hearing this, Attlee immediately perked up, "Dr. Caden, do tell, I’m all ears.
"There’s a drug on the market that can save Grace’s life..."
"Go on, I’m taking notes." Attlee quickly took out a small notebook, pulled out a pen from his pocket, and uncapped it.
"It can only be purchased on the black market. Each pill costs a million, and she needs to take it twice a month. Only after three months of consecutive use can surgery be performed."
After hearing this, Attlee and Olga exchanged glances. A million? So, that’s six million in three months?!
"Are drugs that expensive nowadays?"
"It’s made from very rare medicinal ingredients, so it’s particularly scarce."
Attlee silently put away his notebook and pen, "In that case, I’ve decided not to transfer her. We’ll have to trouble you more in the future..."
The reason they wanted to save Grace was firstly because she holds 30% of the company’s shares, worth 30 million. But this sky–high price for the drug was clearly not worth it.
Secondly, Grace favored Rosemary. If she wasn’t in her right mind and gave her shares to Rosemary...
They might make the old lady leave a will giving all her shares to Yoli before she died.
That’s why they wanted to save the old lady.
Rosemary had often helped the Harris family through crises because Grace owned shares in the company. Otherwise, she wouldn’t give a damn about Attlee’s life and death...
But the people of the Harris family didn’t know this. They thought they’re all that, able to become the richest family in Tranquil City....
Attlee secretly slipped the bank card he had previously given to Rosemary into the medical record in front of Caden.
This small move was caught by Caden, making him despise Attlee even more.
"Mr. Harris, are you trying to get me fired, or even put in jail?"
It was important to know that medical staff took advantage of their positions to accept bribes in private, which was a crime of accepting bribes. If the amount was large, they might even go to jail.
"Dr. Caden, you get me wrong..." Attlee quickly laughed and cautiously said, "We’re not asking you to violate your professional ethics. This is just a small token of our appreciation. We know you’ve been working hard recently, and this money... you can use it to buy some health supplements..."
"Yeah, Dr. Caden, just take it!"
"Take it away. Caden didn’t take a second look, his tone was indifferent, "Someone told me, I will naturally work hard, and you don’t need to do any more. unnecessary things, you can go out now."
"Dr. Caden..."
Olga wanted to say more, but Attlee quickly took back the card, laughing it off as if nothing had happened, "Alright, we’ll leave now. If Dr. Caden needs anything in the future, just let me know anytime..."
If it weren’t for Rose, Caden would have kicked them out a long time ago.
"Dr. Caden really has a nasty temper.." Olga couldn’t help but comment as she stepped out of the consulting room, "Look at Zachary, he is a rich boy, but he’s so educated..."
"He’s a genius doctor who’s been spoiled and pampered since he was a kid, so his arrogance is understandable."
"Speaking of which, Dr. Caden mentioned that someone asked him to pay special attention to Grace’s condition. Must be the Panter family, right?" With their extensive connections, the Zachary family were
the only ones who could help with Grace’s condition.
Plus, Zachary and Yoli were engaged...
"It has to be the Panter family. Who else could it be? We should thank them at some point, but..."
Feeling a bit downcast with the inability to transfer Grace to another hospital, Attlee could only let her continue her treatment here.
"Attlee, is that the direction the girl earlier took?"
Suddenly, Olga seemed to think of something, "I remember that the wards over there are quite expensive?" Half of this floor was for regular VIPs, and the other half for top–tier VIPs.
Grace got to stay in the regular VIP because they brought it up on the Panter family, it was estimated that the Panter family helped them.
But the top–tier VIP was a different story, not everyone with–money could afford it..
How could that girl afford to stay there?
She didn’t know anyone important!
"Dad, mom."
Just then, a gentle voice rang out.
"Yoli, how did you come?" Turning around, Olga found not only her daughter came, even Zachary came together as well.
Zachary’s appearance and temperament were very good, and Olga was more and more satisfied. With such a son–in–law, her smile was always on her lips! "Zach, you came too!"
Upon spotting them, Zachary courteously greeted, "Hello","
"Hello..." Attlee returned the greeting warmly, "Weren’t you two on a date? Why are you here in the hospital?"
"We were going to watch a movie, but I heard from our housemaid that the hospital called us, so I thought something happened to Grace, and came to check on her. Zachary still hasn’t left after sending
me home, still at our door..." So, they came together.
"Dad, mom, how’s grandma?" Yolanda was quite the performer in front of everyone: Despite her disdain for her biased grandma, she knew how to play her part, "I think I saw my sister downstairs just now?"
That familiar figure stepping out of the VIP elevator, but she didn’t see clearly..
Hearing her mentioned Rosemary, Zachary was taken aback. Didn’t they say Rosemary returned to her biological family? Why was she here?
Olga and Attlee both had grim expressions.
"Her...let’s not discuss her right now. Your grandma is fine, the hospital just wanted us to pay some additional fees...Since you’re here, why don’t you go in and see her? Maybe your care and love can
give her some strength..."
Zachary and Yolanda shared a glance before walking hand in hand into the ward,
Grace on the bed was nothing but skin and bones, looking extremely frail.
Tears welled up in Yolanda’s eyes, "I was only gone for two days, and grandma has become so weak..."
In truth, her "two days" wasn’t accurate. It had been quite a while since she last visited.
"Why does grandma have to suffer like this, why can’t all the pain be transferred to me, why..."
Seeing her tears, Zachary quickly wiped them away, "Silly, you’ve already been through a lot..."
"I’m not afraid, as long as grandma can recover, I’m willing to bear all the pain for her!"
Looking at her kind and determined face, Zachary was deeply moved, and his love for her grew even stronger.
