Jennifer hesitated for a moment. Eventually, she decided to tell him about her experiences in the Wilson family.
Upon hearing that, Raymond said, “What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. That's merely a challenge for you. Conner is right. You should use this opportunity to prove yourself.”
“But then, I'm afraid that I can't handle it well...” Jennifer said as a hint of dejectedness appeared in her eyes.
“How would you know if you don't give it a try?” Raymond chuckled. “As long as you work hard, you'll always get what you want in the end. How could a man beat the accumulation of effort over many generations on his own? That's why I think this will be a valuable opportunity for you. You have the support of a century-old affluent family now.”
Jennifer looked at Raymond's dark opaque eyes. Suddenly, she noticed wisdom in his gaze. After pondering for a while, she asked, “Has Donald come here recently?
How is he doing?”
Raymond replied, “Oh. He comes often.”
“Alone?” Jennifer asked at last.
Raymond broke into a laugh. “Of course. Who else would he come with?”
Jennifer chuckled as a sense of relief washed over her.
Suddenly, a beautiful woman walked over to them. She was wearing a tight gown, accentuating her slender body and curves.
Moreover, there was a food container in her hand. As soon as she saw Jennifer, she was startled. Immediately, she walked toward Raymond with a cold expression. “Raymond, your mushroom soup is here.”
It was Hannah Nixon, Nouveau Hospital's professor.
Ignoring Jennifer, she handed the soup to Raymond.
Raymond flashed a smile. “You don't have to send me soup every day. I don't want to delay your work.”
Hannah shook her head and replied indifferently, “It's okay. I'm not that busy unless I have any major operations.”
Raymond took over the soup.
Jennifer said, “All right, Raymond. I'll take my leave now. I'll pay you another visit when I have time.”
Raymond nodded without saying anything.
