The Prison-Made Queen novel Chapter 347

“If it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t have recovered this quickly. Thank you. You saved my life.”

He spoke slowly, every word sounding like a deliberate, weighty declaration that allowed for no rebuttal.

Leilani had heard these kinds of words many times before, so she was relatively desensitized to them. She shook her head. “I just did what I was supposed to do.”

After all, she hadn’t given him special treatment just because he was Mr. Chilton. If it had been any other patient, Leilani would have done the same.

Mr. Chilton stared at Leilani for a few seconds, then pulled a simple, ancient-looking jade pendant from under his pillow and handed it to her.

“This is a personal token of mine.” His tone was calm but brokered no refusal. “In the future, if you encounter difficulties or need help, take this and call the number on the back. As long as it doesn’t cross my moral bottom line, I can help you with anything.”

Leilani took the pendant. It felt warm to the touch, carved with an intricate totem on the front, and a string of digits—obviously a private number—on the back.

Just as Leilani was about to say something, her phone vibrated. She looked down. It was a text message from her bank. A deposit notification for one hundred million dollars. She looked up sharply, shocked. “Is this…?”

Mr. Chilton smiled faintly. “That is your fee for treating me.”

Leilani was stunned. One hundred million! Mr. Chilton was truly a heavyweight; he talked about a hundred million dollars as calmly as if it were ten bucks.

Leilani took a deep breath, trying to maintain her composure. “Mr. Chilton, this is too much. I can’t accept it.”
