Chapter 80
Chapter: 80 “You little devil,” Claudia said with a smile, inadvertently agreeing with Bruce.
Claudia loved magnolia flowers so much because they held a special meaning to her. The first bouquet Mr. Thomas gave her was a bouquet of magnolia flowers.
“Actually, grandma, it’s Millie that designed the brooch,” Bruce said. Millie looked at him in surprise. What if she took all the credit? Sure enough, Claudia looked at Millie with more appreciation in her eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Millie certainly has superb craftsmanship. Why don’t you cut the cake withlater?” Claudia asked with a smile. That was going to be a public recognition of Millie.
Millie might have no appeal, but if Claudia appreciated and recognized her publicly, she would be valued in the Thomas family.
Once that was settled, Claudia smiled at everyone and said, “You should all get about your business now while | have a cup of tea. I'll cback when it'll be tto cut the cake.”
As the crowd dispersed and people went in different directions, Millie went after Leon. “Leon,” she called to his back, but he kept walking without even acknowledging her.
Millie frowned. She was so close behind him. He must have heard her.
Millie increased her steps and caught up to him until he could see her. “Leon.”
This time, he stopped walking and fixed Millie with a gaze so cold it sent a chill through her. “Yes?”
Even his indifferent tone was chilling. It intimidated Millie, but she kept her smile in place and said, “Leon, | know you are a skilled surgeon; the best actually. My grandmother has a complex tumor in her brain, that | think only you can remove. | would like you to take out this tumor. I’m ready to pay for it, no matter the cost.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSlowly, Leon’s gaze moved from Millie’s face to her feet, scrutinizing her. From the way his nose turned up, he must have concluded that she was too inferior for him to waste ton.
When he opened his mouth to speak, she knew whatever he would say was not something nice.
“I'm afraid you are out of the loop. | stopped practicing medicine a long tago.”
“What? But that’s not possible! How?” Millie expected a refusal, but not that.
Without answering, he continued on his way, but Millie didn’t let go.
“Leon, when did you stop practicing?” From what she heard, Leon possessed exceptional surgical skills. No matter how difficult and complicated the case was, he never lost a patient. Somehow, he always managed to save them.
There was once a famous case of a pelvic tumor involving the sacrum. This particular surgery scared all surgeons who wanted nothing to do with it. The only one that was brave enough to attack it was Leon. At the end, it was a successful surgery. He not only saved the patient's life, but avoided amputation. That was beyond what anyone expected. That earned him his nin the medical field.
