Chapter 1381 Opening Ceremony

Five days later, it was the date that Sophia had picked out for the hospital’s opening ceremony. That day, the long-awaited Bernian Hospital was finally about to be in business.

Close friends, family, partners, and potential partners of Seet Group were all present to attend the opening ceremony.

Luxurious cars pulled up one after the other. The atmosphere was very lively.

The first group of people to appear were Juan, Kyle, Nina, and Maya. The four of them came forward with different flower bouquets in their hand. Nicole looked at them with surprise. “You guys…”

“Congratulations, Mommy!”

“Mommy, under your management, the hospital will thrive for sure. Patient numbers are sure to drop.”

“Good luck, Mommy!”

“If you ever need help, you can always come to me. I’m here for you,” Maya said as she patted her chest.

Nicole looked at her tall, good-looking children. They used to be so naughty and adorable. Now, they were all grown up.

These four children were the most unexpected gift that the heavens had sent to her.

“I appreciate all your well wishes. Thank you!”

“Do your best, Mommy!”

“I will!”

“Mr. Seet, Mrs. Seet, congratulations!”

“Mr. Seet, I’m excited to see the opening of your hospital.”

“Wishing your wife all the best in her business, Mr. Seet. I’m sure patients will be flowing in every day!”

Nicole was not particularly happy to hear that statement. Her smile fell flat as she responded seriously, “I think I’d prefer it if people could stay healthy. It’d be much better to see an empty hospital with no patients.”

The person’s face immediately froze. He chuckled awkwardly and said, “You’re absolutely right, Mrs. Seet. A kind soul like you is very rare in society nowadays. In the olden days, perhaps clinics and hospitals alike would hope for patient numbers to drop.

“Nowadays, most hospitals and clinics are more akin to a business. Promotions are plentiful. The more medicine you purchase, the higher the discounts. I truly hope that you will run Bernian Hospital in a different light and work toward the patients’ best interests.”

“It’s none of my business how other people do their jobs. However, I will try my best to run my hospital with a generous heart.”

“Mr. Seet, you’re very fortunate to have such a thoughtful wife.”

“Indeed. The two of you are a match made in heaven.”

“I totally agree. Mr. and Mrs. Seet are both so good-looking as well…”

Hearing praises from all around them, Nicole raised her head toward Evan. He shot a look toward John, who quickly dispersed the crowd around them.

“Mr. and Mrs. Seet deeply appreciate all your warm wishes. Please, let’s all head to the hotel opposite to rest.”

As the crowd left, Nicole sighed deeply. Shortly after, she saw Joy, Zayden, Davin, and Sheila arrive. Joy ran over to her and stared. “Mommy, you’re so pretty today!”

“You look really pretty too, Joy. Have you missed me?”

“Of course! I came here today to congratulate you, Mommy.” As the little girl spoke, she reached into her pocket and took out a crystal heart.

“Mommy, this is a heart. It’s small, but it’s filled with my love for you. I want to give this to you. I hope you like it.”

Nicole took the small crystal from the palm of Joy’s hands. She turned it over and looked at it carefully. It was about the size of a coin, but it was very delicately carved.

“Joy, why did you pick this as your gift?”

Joy paused to think of her answer. “Because I heard that even a tiny bit of love will be able to help the world become a better place. A hospital is a place that needs the most love. Hence, I wanted to contribute my love too.”

Nicole looked into her round, sparkling eyes. Oddly enough, she was feeling quite touched.
