Max said, "Mrs. Lewis, please stay out of it, this is between Charlie and me. Besides, no matter who wins or loses today, the orphanage is the biggest winner. The resale value of my car is about four hundred grand, Charlie's car is slightly cheaper, around two or three hundred grand. You can use the money to improve the facilities and buy things for the children i n the orphanage.” 5
Charlie said with a warm smile, "Mrs. Lewis, don't you worry about us, Max and I will handle it personally."
Mrs. Lewis was actually afraid that Charlie was at the losing end of the stick, however, looking at Charlie's confident smile, she felt that it was not as simple as she thought, s
Frankly, while she was receiving treatment in Eastcliff, she noticed something strange and peculiar.
Firstly, she noticed that the doctors in the hospital were very polite and respectful toward her, almost as though she was a VIP patient. 2
When she was in the hospital, a famous celebrity had come to Fairview Hospital to see a doctor who happened to be her doctor in charge. Surprisingly, she found that the doctor's attitude toward the celebrity was far less friendly than his attitude toward her.
She couldn't help but wonder why the doctor and
hospital staff treated her in such a gracious manner. She was just a normal employee of an orphanage, and she has come to Eastcliff for the first time in her life. She didn't have any connection with anyone significant nor any influential background. What was with the special treatment anyway? 5
The second peculiar moment was when she was on the operating table and had been injected with anesthesia. Before she passed out, she had heard the conversation between her doctor and his assistant.
Amid her dizziness, she had heard the doctor say that she was the young master's benefactor, so they must b e extremely cautious in her procedure. 2
