Chapter 1022

Jack naturally understood and said, “Teacher, it’s really difficult to raise funds, but I know some friends.

I might be able to contact them to ask if anyone is willing to invest.”

Beatrice’s eyes lit up and said, “Great! We need patriots like you! Jack, as long as the institute is

established, I’ll recommend you to be the first batch of medical researchers to enter the institute!”

Jack said gratefully, “Thank you, Teacher.”

After that, he was about to dial the phone numbers of some business owners he knew.

It was also at this time that Philip stepped forward and asked, “How much needs to be raised?”

After asking this question, both Beatrice and Jack looked at Philip dubiously.

As far as Beatrice knew, Philip had already invested billions in helping Henry’s cardiology department.

Was he going to invest in the comprehensive research institute now?

Impossible!

This was simply not the kind of financial support that could be given by one person!

Moreover, the research plan this time was very extensive. The initial capital investment alone would be

close to 3 billion!

Upon completion, the investment in the later stage and the development and arrangement of related

researchers would require at least tens of billions of funds!

“Mr. Clarke, I’m afraid this is probably not a sum within your range.”

Beatrice tactfully rejected Philip’s kindness.

Although she knew about Philip from Henry, she did not know everything.

Jack also turned his head and glanced at Philip who was standing in front of him. He looked like a very

ordinary man.

What did he mean? He wanted to contract the research institute alone?

What a joke!

“Haha, this family member… Your name is Philip Clarke, right? Listening to your tone, you seem to

think you can bear the investment funds of the research institute alone?”

It was not that Jack looked down on him, but he really did not believe that a man who could hardly

protect his wife and kid had any right to spout such pompous words here.

Was he trying to show off?

“Jack, don’t be rude! Mr. Clarke is not an ordinary person—”

Beatrice glared at Jack, but the second half of the sentence was interrupted.

Jack asked, “Teacher, do you know this kid?”

Otherwise, the mentor would not have come in person to take care of this kid’s wife.

Was he a relative of Professor Swann?

Beatrice nodded and said, “I just got to know him.”

They just knew each other?

Jack smiled suddenly and rolled his eyes. He stared at the indifferent Philip and said, “My friend, go

back and take good care of your wife. Today, you were fortunate enough to come across my mentor

who came to the hospital to see me. Otherwise, you would’ve had to choose between your wife and

kid.”

Jack concluded that Professor Swann knew that he was here and deliberately came here to see him.

Coincidentally, she came across this emergency and lent a helping hand.

That kid was really fortunate.

However, Philip just glanced at Jack calmly. He had come across too many people who looked down

on others.

He could not be bothered with him.

Philip simply looked at Beatrice and said, “In order to express my gratitude to Professor Swann, I’ll be

fully responsible for the funds of this institute. Well, is one billion enough?”

Everyone was stunned.

“One billion?” Beatrice’s eyes widened in astonishment, her breathing a little short.

“Not enough? Then let’s add a zero to that. How about ten billion?” Philip said calmly.
