Chapter 148

Chapter 148 The air tensed up in the room.

Alice’s eyes twitched; she was not having it. She raised her chin and stared at her son, who was a lot taller than her. Suddenly, her heart was filled with sadness.

‘He’s right. Standing in front of me is no longer the boy that I have to be worried about.’ She looked at her son’s cold expression and her heart tightened. She was feeling a lot of things, but most importantly, she was just worried. What mother would not wish the best for their child? Alice did not want to argue with her son as well, so she sighed and stared at him. She could only give in.

“I don’t want to force you... But you should consider some time, okay? I just want you to be happy.”

‘My son is extremely outstanding, so I just want him to have the best partner. Why can’t he understand?’

Sean loosened his clenched fists.

His expression was not as cold as it was before, and he looked askance at Alice. “I’m happy Right after he said that, Molly appeared at the door. She was there to call him over for dinner, but when she saw Alice in her formal dress there, she was shocked.

‘What a coincidence. We meet again.’

Molly put on a natural expression as she greeted Alice politely, “Mrs. Anderson.” Alice was in a beautiful gown and her makeup seemed like it was carefully done. She looked like she was going to attend a banquet, so Molly figured that she was going to Abigail’s birthday. She remembered them bringing this up when she met Ricky and Alice a few days ago. When Alice saw Molly again, she paid more attention to Molly. She glanced at Molly a few times and said, “Dr. May, I didn’t have the chance to chat with you since everything was too rushed the last time we met. Thank you for treating my son’s legs.”

‘But still, do they have to meet so often for the treatment?’

“This doctor looks quite close with Sean. They don’t look like they share a normal doctor patient relationship.’

Alice wondered.

Alice’s tone was gentle, and her mannerism was soft. Even though she was in a luxurious gown, she did not give off a snobby or unapproachable vibe.

“No worries, it’s my job.” Molly rarely saw a wealthy family being so modest and humble, so nswered.

she smiled faintly as she answered.

“Dr. May, what are the chances of my son’s leg recovering? We’ve hired many doctors for him before, but they’ve all said that his chances of standing up are slim...” Alice’s voice eventually died out as she spoke. She looked worried as she stared at Molly with concern. ‘Seems like the Anderson family were pretty worried about Sean’s legs as well.’ Molly was unmoved. As a doctor, she had gone through countless scenarios and conversations like this.

She responded calmly, “It’s indeed very slim, but I will try my best.”.. ., 2014I Molly’s tone was euphemistic. Alice did not ask any further questions as well. She had already gotten used to it after so many years, so she did not carry high hopes. “Thank you, Dr.

May. By the way, I didn’t catch your name. You look really young as well, are you from Northfolk?” She started talking to Molly in a soft tone and was always smiling. Her attitude was very welcoming, so Molly did not feel repelled by her. But Molly squinted at the sudden change of topic. Her tone remained the same as she answered, “My name is Molly May. “I’m from Northfolk, but I’ve been living and studying abroad previously. I just came back here recently.”
