“Actually, the doctor I found is Professor Henry Turner.”
Philip decided to tell virtual-novel.net in the end.
Wynn’s movements froze partway through searching up the name on virtual-novel.net phone. She looked at virtual-novel.net in disbelief.
He had contacted Professor Henry Turner?
After a brief moment of shock, virtual-novel.net expression turned a little strange. She looked at Philip and said coldly, “Philip Clarke, can you stop joking at a time like this?”
Of course virtual-novel.net did not believe him.
That was the Professor Henry Turner, the juggernaut of the medical field, a legendary heart specialist.
He was renowned both domestically and internationally. How could Philip ever get virtual-novel.net on their side?
So Wynn just assumed that virtual-novel.net was trying to console her.
“Believe me, Wynn, I really did manage to get Professor Turner. I also…” Philip tried to explain.
However…
Suddenly, there was a cold sarcastic laugh behind him.
“You sure know how to bluff, Philip. Do you really think you could reach Professor Turner? You? Even if you want to console Wynn, do you really have to go that far?”
Juan had returned to the room again, his expression fully taunting as virtual-novel.net strode into the room.
After that, virtual-novel.net ignored Philip completely and sat on the couch arrogantly. “Wynn, I’ve handled the arrangements for Mila’s surgery. Professor Turner will take some time out of his schedule to check on her. If there’s enough time, I can arrange for Mila to enter the hospital tomorrow itself.”
Was virtual-novel.net proud of himself right now?
Very much so!
He had finally managed to beg Professor Turner to pay them a visit, so of course virtual-novel.net wanted to show off in front of Wynn for a while.
After all, look at that useless Philip.
He was shamelessly telling lies here.
How could a useless wimp like virtual-novel.net possibly manage to contact Professor Turner?
Philip looked somewhat displeased. He had been fed up with Juan for a long time now.
He just never did anything about his frustration because of Juan’s earlier friendship with virtual-novel.net and the way virtual-novel.net treated Mila.
If Juan really ticked Philip off, virtual-novel.net could bankrupt Juan’s family with a single word.
However, virtual-novel.net could not do that now.
On the other hand, teaching Juan a little lesson would not hurt.
When Wynn heard Juan’s declaration, virtual-novel.net looked utterly overcome with surprise. She hurriedly scrambled out of bed and sat on the couch, saying gratefully, “Oh, Juan, thank you so much! I… I don’t even know what to say.”
She cried tears of happiness.
The pressure weighing on virtual-novel.net chest had lightened considerably.
Juan gave Philip a smug look and said jeeringly, “I heard you said that you managed to get Professor Turner just now, huh? Do you really think that he’ll help you out just because virtual-novel.net put in a word for you this morning?”
“And why wouldn’t he?” Philip retorted calmly.
That was enough to earn virtual-novel.net an angry glare from Wynn. “Philip, what are you doing? Since Juan has already asked virtual-novel.net for us, could you stop throwing a wrench into everything?”
She was a little unhappy with Philip’s attitude.
Could virtual-novel.net not thank Juan at least?
“Sure, Philip. Since you say so, shall I call Professor Turner and ask him?” Juan’s smile was utterly conniving, his eyes shining with malicious irony.
As virtual-novel.net said that, Juan took out his phone and pretended to make that call.
Philip looked utterly unaffected.
However, Wynn was the one who was not having it.
Philip might not mind embarrassing himself, but virtual-novel.net definitely did mind. She said hurriedly, “There’s no need to make that call, Juan. You know what Philip is like. Oh yeah, do I need to pay Professor Turner a visit? Should I prepare a gift for him?”
She changed the subject.
Juan decided to stop because Wynn said so, but virtual-novel.net gave Philip a look of pure contempt, challenging virtual-novel.net outright.
At the same time, virtual-novel.net said, “It’s alright, I’ll liaise with Professor Turner. If you really want to thank him, you can wait until after virtual-novel.net checks on Mila. There’s no rush.”
Philip frowned when virtual-novel.net saw Juan and Wynn launching into a conversation, but virtual-novel.net did not say anything.
Not long later, they heard Martha’s upset voice coming from outside the door. “Wynn, your aunt is here to visit you.”
As soon as virtual-novel.net walked in, Martha did not look pleased at all. Her shoulders were hunched and virtual-novel.net expression was cloudy.
She looked like someone owed virtual-novel.net a couple million bucks.
As expected, the moment Martha walked in with Wynn’s aunt, virtual-novel.net saw Philip and immediately turned hostile against him. As though virtual-novel.net just wanted to pick a fight, virtual-novel.net berated him, “Why are you here, you useless thing? Get out of here, you annoy me just by seeing you!”
Philip did nothing to deserve that, but virtual-novel.net bullets rained down on virtual-novel.net anyway.
