Anthony didn't pay that much attention to Mariel, and in his opinion, this woman did not look like Reese at all.
His voice was light. "So what if they resemble each other? There are a lot of people in the world who look very
much alike. Does it have anything to do with you?"
Mariel spat at Anthony in an angry tone. "Huh! Don't you give a damn for Reese? Are you even Reese's friend
anymore? | don't think you even care about her!"
Anthony gave her a look of disbelief. "Of course, | care about her! But not to this degree!"
After Anthony had finished talking, he took out the phone number that the little boy had given him and dialed it.
Mariel was standing next to Anthony with her eyes downcast, wondering what his thoughts were.
The phone was dialed, and it rang a couple of times before the person over there picked up the phone.
"Hello, hello, who are you?" cthe voice of a man.
Anthony introduced himself. "Good day to you sir. My nis Dr. Anthony Rivers and | am the director of the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRivers Health Medical Center. It was by chance that | saw your child in the hospital, and he said that you were
helping him raise money for his operation. It is my pleasure to inform you that our hospital can be a recipient of
public assistance funds for your son. In short, we can get him a free operation, but I need to talk to you about it
in person. Do you have ttoday to discuss this matter with me?"
When the other person heard Anthony's explanation, he immediately laughed with relief. He was overjoyed by
the sudden caller. "Of course, that would be great. My little Bailey will finally be able to have an operation. I'm at
the hospital's outpatient clinic right now. Are you there?"
At the sound of this, Anthony unconsciously glanced in the direction of the emergency room door.
Sure enough, he saw a man holding a cell phone.
The other person looked pretty good with a smile on his face.
However, there was a woman next to him who was apparently in the middle of a conversation with him. She
looked a little bit impatient when she saw that he was talking on the cell phone.
And this woman is the one who was in the elevator just a moment ago. Mariel said that she looked like Reese.
Mariel had a good look at the woman and her expression was not very good. Anthony said in a deep voice. "l am
in the outpatient clinic on the first floor of the hospital. | will be on my way to you in a moment!"
The man nodded immediately. "Okay, okay, I'll wait for you here!"
Then Anthony saw the man hang up, and say a few panicked words to the woman, and the woman walked off
with her high-heeled shoes.
Mariel followed Anthony out and said to herself, "Actually, if you look closely, they don't look alike. This woman
has a square face, while Reese has an oval face!"
Anthony didn't pay attention to Mariel's boring remarks. He walked over to Bailey's father, who looked to be less
than thirty years old.
Anthony introduced himself. "I'm the director of this hospital, Dr. Anthony Rivers. Are you Bailey's father?"
At the sight of Anthony, the other party immediately nodded and began a conversation with Anthony.

Mariel listened boredly and watched the man.
Perhaps the woman, who looked like Reese, had just said a few words to the man. Mariel couldn't help but take a
second look at the man and found a black mole the size of a nail under his ear.
Throughout the conversation, she cto know the nof the other party, Jim Dobre. He has a son named
Bailey Dobre, who they saw just a moment ago.
Their family was relatively poor, and they lived in a dilapidated farmhouse on the outskirts of the city of
Switzerland. Shortly after Bailey's birth, his mother ran away in search of a richer person.
Since then, Jim has been raising Bailey all on his own. What happened to Bailey this twas that he had a fall
from a tree and other parts of his body fell on the soft grass. He was all right, but his elbow fell on the cement
floor and he suffered a comminuted fracture, so he had to have surgery.
Mariel was just thinking about the child's appearance. At the time, she hadn't even been aware of the fact that
the little boy had a fracture in his arm.
