Fatal Love：CEO, please let me go

It had been more than an hour since she rushed back to the hospital from Yusuf family’s villa.

After settling Professor Wes down, Adele immediately called the doctor to check on him. When she learned that his condition was still normal, she felt relieved.

Seeing that Professor Wes was already asleep on the bed, Ms. Henderson waved at Adele, indicating for her to go out.

After going out, Ms. Henderson closed the door and pulled her to the side. He said in a low voice, “Adele, today’s matter was our fault. Your father is in the hospital recently. He is in a bad mood…”

Adele smiled at her and said softly, “Mom, don’t say anymore. I understand.”

She understood and understood. Now that Professor Wes had psychological pressure, he would naturally be nervous and easily angry. This was human nature. There was no need for her to be so unreasonable.

“It’s good that you understand. Let me take a look at your little face. Yesterday, your father’s slap… was not light.”

As she spoke, Ms. Henderson reached out and lifted Adele’s chin, looking left and right.

Although Ms. Henderson usually talked to Adele and was picky, she still loved her daughter from the bottom of her heart. Seeing that the palm print on her face had almost disappeared, she was relieved.

Looking at her mother like this, Adele felt warm in his heart. He quickly reached out to hold her wrist and whispered, “Mom, I have found Director Feng’s contact information. I will contact him later and talk about the operation plan.”

Hearing this, Ms. Henderson was happy and immediately nodded. “As long as there is a contact information. I heard from the doctor that your father should do this operation early. This way, the success rate will be higher.”

When Adele heard this, he nodded excitedly and chatted with her for a while. Then he picked up his phone and called Director Feng.

When the call connected, Adele greeted her politely and explained the purpose of her visit to Director Feng.

On the other end, Director Feng’s tone was warm and steady. He calmly told her about the operation plan and the operation time. After he finished explaining the two parts, he finally talked about the cost problem.

“About the cost, I think I should tell you first so that you can be mentally prepared.” Director Feng’s unhurried tone came from the other side of the line.

“Okay, you say it.”

“If I wereto operate this operation, the cost of the operation would be around 1. 5 million. In order to reduce the risk as much as possible, we would use the best imported medicine. The side effects would be great, but of course, the price would also be higher.”

Hearing this, Adele’s hand that was holding the phone froze slightly. He was stunned for two seconds before he slowly came back to his senses. “1. 5 million?”

“Yes, there might be some medicine for maintenance and inspection later on.”

Adele took a deep breath and paused for a while. Then, he said softly, “Okay, Director Feng, I understand. When we have enough money here, we hope to have the surgery as soon as possible.”

“If you need the surgery as soon as possible, then try to move forward as much as possible. Because I have other arrangements next month. If you push it further, the surgery may not be listed.”

“Okay, I will do it as soon as possible.”

After hanging up the phone, Adele stood in the same place and was stunned.

She also did not expect that this operation would cost so much money to reduce the cost of it.

All these years, Professor Wes had been teaching in college. Ms. Henderson usually did some volunteer activities to help and did not have much income. He relied on his father’s income. Although his family situation was not rich, it was generally not bad. However, this 1. 5 million was not a small sum after all. He was afraid that his family did not have so much money at the moment…

She really didn’t know what to do. Ms. Henderson came out of the ward with a water bottle. Seeing Adele standing there in a daze, he immediately stepped forward and asked, “What’s wrong? What did Director Feng say?”

“There’s nothing wrong with the operation, but the surgery fee is a bit high… Mom, how much money does our family have now?” Adele asked softly.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“The money in our family all has passbooks, close to five hundred thousand. Is this money not enough for the operation?” Ms. Henderson said softly.

Adele bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and said, “The surgery fee this time is about one million and five hundred thousand.”

“What?” Ms. Henderson was a little dumbfounded. He asked again in disbelief, “1. 5 million? So much?”

Adele nodded a little dejectedly.

The remaining one million, even if their family sold everything, it would not be enough.

The doctor had contacted them, and the operation plan and schedule were basically confirmed. However, they did not expect that they would be trapped in front of the operation fee.

“Then what should we do?” Ms. Henderson was a little flustered and asked repeatedly, “Adele, with your father’s current physical condition, the operation must be done!”

Adele clenched his fists, looked at Ms. Henderson, and comforted her softly, “Mom, don’t worry. I still have some money in my hand. I’ll think of a way to gather it up and see how much I can gather.”

Hearing her say this, Ms. Henderson was relieved and nodded, “Okay, Adele, I am relieved to have you say this.”

After comforting Ms. Henderson for a while, Adele returned to the ward. When she saw Professor Wes lying on the bed, her heart could not help but feel a little distressed.

This time, no matter what, she had to find a way to collect enough surgery fees.

Adele basically spent the weekend in the hospital. At night, she went back to change clothes, fell asleep, and woke up early the next morning. She was almost late.

For her now, her salary was crucial. Although it was still far from enough to gather the 1. 5 million yuan, as long as she had more money in her hands, the possibility was higher.

There was still a period of time before the operation. She had to gather as much as possible. In the end, it was not enough. Even if it was a loan, she had to get enough.

When she arrived at Administrative Department, Adele went to the attendance machine and dialed a card. Just as she was about to return to the office, she was stopped by someone.

Hearing the familiar voice, Adele turned around and saw Grace standing not far behind her with a smile in his eyes.

“Adele, Corine asked you to go to his office.”

Seeing that Grace was rarely smiling at her, Adele was a little surprised. She responded, thanked him casually, and walked towards the manager’s office.

When she pushed the door open and entered, she saw Corine sitting at the table. He raised his chin at her and gestured for her to sit.

“Corine, what’s the matter?” Adele asked as he sat down.

Corine stopped what he was doing and looked up at her with a serious gaze. “You left early last Friday afternoon?”

Adele’s heart skipped a beat. He paused and answered truthfully, “Yes, my family…”

“Pa!”

Corine slapped the table and interrupted her. “Don’t find any excuses. Making a mistake is making a mistake!” she said coldly.

Seeing that Corine’s face suddenly changed, Adele trembled with fear.

This matter was indeed her fault. When she received Ms. Henderson’s call that day, she left in a hurry and did not bother to tell her.

“Don’t start showing off just because of a little credit. The company is not your home. You can come and go as you please. Do you have any rules?”

Corine had always been serious about her work. It was fine if everyone joked around. She had always been meticulous about her work. She hated employees who made the most basic mistakes.

And this time, Adele had obviously hit the muzzle of a gun.
