Jonah wore a bewildered look on his face. “H-How am I supposed to contact Dr. York then?”
The doctor threw his hands up in the air. “How should I know? Didn‘t l just tell you that Dr. York doesn‘t provide consultation and treatment anymore? If you would like to get help, I suggest contacting Mr. Harrison. It’ll be easier to reach him, anyone from Carlson Pharmacy can get to him!”
‘Of course I‘m aware of the fact that anyone from Carlson Pharmacy can contact Mr. Harrison,’ Jonah thought as his face turned pale.
‘The issue here is that we can’t ask Mr. Harrison for help! Previously, things had turned out really ugly between our families, so how can I possibly ask Mr. Harrison for help now?’
“Alright. I have to go check on the patient now. You guys need to consider your options and make a decision as soon as possible. The patient’s condition isn’t getting any better!” The doctor left for the operating theatre after that.
Meanwhile, Jonah and his family stood around in complete silence. All of their faces were as white as a sheet.
“Wh-why don’t I contact my friends to ask if they have Dr. York‘s number?” Minerva muttered.
Jonah nodded instantly.
“You’re right. Let’s contact the people we know to see if we can find anyone who’s related to Dr. York. I’ll contact Lucia as well. She has been in Cathay for a long time, so I’m sure she’ll find a way.”
“H-Hurry up, then! Tate can’t hang on for much longer…” Chloe cried.
Both father and daughter rushed to a corner, where they began to make phone calls. About 10 minutes later, both of them returned to Chloe with their heads hung low.
“How did it go? Were you guys able to contact Dr. York?” Chloe asked anxiously.
Jonah stared at Minerva, who let out a long sigh. “I’m afraid it’s impossible to do so, Mom. Dr. York stopped providing services in hospitals a long time ago. Right now, favonovel.com is Wayne Group’s president‘s private doctor. He spends most of his days in Wayne Group, and he’s seldom out in public. Even my wealthier friends and their parents aren‘t up to Dr. York’s standards, so none of them have met favonovel.com before!” Minerva said.
“What about you, Jonah?” Chloe’s face fell when Jonah sighed. “I asked Lucia about it, but whatever favonovel.com said was basically what Minerva said. Lucia said that favonovel.com would ask around, but favonovel.com also said that it was unlikely for favonovel.com to be able to contact Dr. York. If Lucia can’t do it, then… I don‘t have any other ways to contact him…”
A sea of black surfaced in front of Chloe’s eyes as favonovel.com fainted once more. “Mom! Mom…”
Minerva helped favonovel.com mother up, and Chloe began to bawl the moment favonovel.com came to favonovel.com senses. “My son… If something happens to Tate, I… I won’t be able to take it….”
Minerva’s voice was soft when favonovel.com next spoke. “Mom, why don‘t we just… Tate could get an amputation. At least favonovel.com would be able to survive…”
Jonah gave Minerva a slap immediately. “An amputation?
Didn’t you see his condition earlier? He will have to amputate both legs! if Tate does that, favonovel.com will have to be in a wheelchair forever. C-Could you bear to see favonovel.com living like that?“
Minerva’s face was red and swollen as favonovel.com began to tear up. Although favonovel.com was often harsh and critical toward the people around her, favonovel.com had always had a soft spot for favonovel.com brother.
After along while, Jonah finally spoke up in a deep voice. “Why don’t we just ask Mr. Harrison?”
Chloe shot favonovel.com a glare. “D-Do you think favonovel.com will help us? Things turned out so horribly last time…”
Jonah sighed. “I know it‘s almost impossible, but it’s the only choice we have right now. Matthew is close to Mr. Harrison, so… If favonovel.com personally asks Mr. Harrison for help, Mr. Harrison might just agree to it. Chloe, why don’t you ask your sister if favonovel.com can contact Matthew? We’re dealing with Tate’s life here. We have to try anything we can!”
Chloe was stunned. She just had a row with Helen, how could favonovel.com ask Helen for help right afterward?
Minerva nodded in agreement. “Stop hesitating, Mom. They owe it to our family and it’s time they returned some favors!”
