Chapter 118 Someone Volunteers Upon hearing that there would be follow-up acupuncture, Samuel was much more at ease. He said repeatedly, âOkay, okay.â âIf thereâs nothing else, Iâll go back first,â Jonathan said.
He was exhausted from coming over for surgery so late at night. His wife had returned to the country today, and he still had work to do. If he went back now, he could accompany her to sleep off the jet leg tomorrow. âOkay. Sorry to have troubled you,â Samuel said politely. Jonathan was also very courteous to Samuel. âMr. Parks, thereâs no need for the courtesy. Iâve kept your kindness to Anna in mind.â
He knew that Samuel was nice to Anna. He said this not only for Samuel but also for Sean Hiller to hear. He was not someone who did good deeds without leaving a name. Since he had done a good deed, he had to let the others know why he had done it.
That was because Samuel cared for Anna. After that, if everyone treated Anna well, they could only go to him for surgery. If it were the opposite case, the results would still be the same. If they were mean to her but still wanted to go to him for surgery, he would chase them away with a stick.. Sean looked at Annalise in surprise and quickly looked away.
In fact, he did not think much of her in the past. He always felt that Julian was so outstanding. There were so many daughters of aristocratic families in Jadeborough. Sybil Xander, Lianne Blake, Yvonne Smith of the Smith family, and the other young noble ladies were all from prestigious families and were both talented and beautiful.
Not to mention Annaliseâs character, she was from a small place after all. She was not a good match for Julian and would not be of any help to his affairs.
The second branchâs reason for opposing Julian Parks was that since ancient times, men had to start a family first before starting a career. Only after starting a family could men truly feel the household responsibilities and understand their true meaning.
The third branch also echoed the second branch.
Samuel did not want to hear the second branch talk about the men starting a family and career every time. Coincidentally, Julian had also reached the age of marriage. Samuel suggested that he should get married.
Samuel recommended all the daughters of various aristocratic families in Jadeborough, but none of them caught Julianâs eye.
Samuel recalled that Kent Barton from Horington had saved his life back then. At that time, he even said that if it were appropriate, the two families could be in-laws. However, he didnât mean it back then.
Since Julian did not have any feelings for Jadeboroughâs young noble girls, perhaps he was fated with the daughter of the Barton family.
When Samuel mentioned this, Julian said that he would go over and take a look. Unexpectedly, he did not marry Kent Bartonâs daughter. Instead, he married Kentâs niece who grew up in the countryside. It was said that Annalise had never even attended school, let alone seen the world. As Julianâs supporter, Sean naturally felt that Annalise was not worthy of Julian.
His mother had told him that a manâs fate upon his marriage was arranged by the heavens. Moreover, Julian and Samuel were no fools. They both liked Annalise, so she couldnât be that terrible.
Later on, Seanâs mother even personally went to Kentâs house to meet Annalise. After the visit, she came back and praised the girl endlessly Although Annalise came from a backward place, her calm temperament was likable. After Sean heard what his mother said, his prejudice against Annalise lessened. He thought that as long as Julian liked her, it would be okay. It was not easy for people like them to marry someone they loved at first glance Today, when Sean saw Annalise and Jonathan enter the operating room at the same time, he was extremely shocked Now that he heard Annalise say that there would be follow-up acupuncture, he was even more shocked. He had a kind of feeling that her medical skills were very impressive. He carefully mulled over Professor Woodsâs words that the patient was nice to his sister, so he operated. He instantly understood that Jonathan treated Annalise as his own sister.
Not to mention anything else, just this relationship alone made Annalise better off than many people.
Jonathan arranged for his assistant to keep an eye on Cassandra 24 hours a day. Then, he yawned and left the office. Sean said to Samuel, âUncle Samuel, my mom wonât wake up soon. You should go back and rest first. Iâll call you as soon as she wakes up.â
âIâll stay with her here.â Cassandra was Samuelâs only sister. How could he be in the mood to go back to sleep? Sean asked Julian and Annalise to go back and rest. Julian said that he would stay here as well. He knew that Annie would perform acupuncture on his aunt later. He asked for a VIP ward and asked Annie to sleep in the lounge.
Annalise had operated for nearly two hours. She needed to perform acupuncture on Cassandra tomorrow. In addition, she had to consider Lianne Blakeâs brotherâs treatment plan. She nodded and went to the ward arranged by Julian to rest. Samuel immediately understood. He said, âKid, take a good rest.â There were many people at the door of Cassandraâs ward. Seanâs younger brother, Liam Hiller, refused to let them in with a cold face.
He said that the air circulation in the ward was poor. If too many people went in, it would be too noisy and affect the air quality. He only let Albert Parks and Gale Parks in to take a look at his mother, who was lying unconscious on the bed. Abigail quietly pulled Alexander to the stairwell downstairs and asked for his opinion. âCan I stay and take care of Madam Hiller?â
âAre you out of your mind? Do you know the consequences if her surgery fails?â Alexanderâs patience with Abigail was getting worse. She bit her lip and lowered her head. She felt that she was now having a hard time. She thought, âItâs just wrong whatever I do.
âWerenât he and his father still analyzing the current situation on their way here? âThey said that Madam Hillerâs children and grandchildren are very filial to her. As long as they could win her support, they would get the support of the entire Hiller family âAlthough the Hiller family canât compare to the Parks family, itâs still one of the top five families in Jadeborough They had a lot of weight. âI was just trying to help Alexander get more support. Why is he mad at me?
âHow infuriating!â Just as Abigail was infuriated, she heard Alexander say calmly, âLetâs hear what Uncle Sean has to say later. If Madam Hillerâs surgery succeeds, you have to strive for a chance to take care of her.â
âOkay Got it,â Abigail immediately said. Now that they were in the same boat, she didnât care about being bullied anymore. She only wanted Alexander to be able to work his way up so that she could rely on his status as his wife.
Alexander lectured her again. âIn the future, use your brain more and think about the pros and cons. If the surgery doesnât go well, wonât you get into trouble if you take care of her?â âGot it,â Abigail instantly said. The two of them walked up the stairs. Coincidentally, Samuel and Sean came over. Everyone was asking about Cassandraâs situation.
Sean said, âGuys, you can rest assured. My momâs surgery went well. After recuperating for a while, she will recover as well as before she fell sick.â âWill there be any repercussions?â Liam asked. âNo.â
Sean said.
Abigail and Alexander looked at each other. She nodded and immediately volunteered. âUncle Sean, I majored in medicine before. Iâll stay and take care of Madam Hiller while sheâs in the hospital.â
