Chapter 217:
With those words, Richard seized the phone and quickly exited the room.
“Katrina, | regret to inform you that our medical division lacks the necessary technology and expertise. However,
I've done sresearch on your behalf. Lipool Hospital is renowned for its proficient techniques—you might
want to consider consulting with them. It’s critical to address these matters promptly, especially if surgery is on
the table.”
He paused, a hint of caution in his voice.
“Furthermore, | must mention, Harper Group's performance hasn't been doing so well lately. Should the public
learn of your child's health issues, it could negatively impact your stock prices. I'd advise you to secure a
competent surgeon soon.”
Advancements in medical technology these days generally assure successful outcomes.

the recommended doctor.

Katrina dialed the doctor's number, her movements tinged with urgency.
Joyce slumped into the sofa, her tears flowing unchecked. Across from her, Caiden occupied a chair, absorbing
the scene: Katrina issuing firm commands to the doctor and Joyce's despairing cries piercing the quiet.
Mixed emotions churned within Caiden as he witnessed the unfolding , his mind wrestling with indecision.
Finally, unable to remain passive, he addressed Joyce.
“This illness is no small matter, Joyce. Perhaps you should consider consulting multiple hospitals, seeking various
opinions. Weren't you once a director at Daniela’s company? Despite everything, you're still on their roster.
Maybe Daniela could recommend sspecialists. She's well-connected, far more than we are now.”
Joyce turned, her face twisted in a grimace.
“Dad, please, not this. My friends have already mockedenough. Do you think Daniela would really help? She
assignedto supervise the restrooms. It's degrading, sitting there all day. It's clear she’s just trying to
retaliate. How could she possibly lend a hand after that?”
As Katrina ended the call, she caught the tail end of the conversation and entered the room, her eyes narrowing
in displeasure.
“What did you just say? Daniela put you in charge of the restrooms?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yes,” Joyce replied, dabbing at her eyes.
“Mom, what’s Dad thinking? Daniela is using her position to demean me, and he suggests | go groveling back to
her? It seems like he'd rather enjoy seeinghumiliated!”
After her outburst, Joyce turned sharply and concealed her tear-streaked face within the soft folds of the pillow,
her sobs wrenching painfully at Katrina's heartstrings.
Katrina shot Caiden a fiery look, her voice thick with resolve.
