Chapter 45: Molly’s Surgery (3)
"Hi, Mr. Steve Adkins... I’m so glad you’d call me." Rose smiles happily. Finally, the company she wants to acquire is interested in her offer.
She continues, "But, I’m really sorry, Mr. Adkins, I can’t go to the capital. I have to stay in East City because my family is being treated at the hospital. Can we make a plan to meet next week?"
"I’m sorry for your family, Ms. Rose Wilson. Don’t worry, I’m currently in East City. I’m in town until tomorrow afternoon. So, if you are ready to meet me, call me anytime. I will come to you...."
Rose immediately set up an appointment with Steve Adkins this evening. The sooner she meets him, the better. She didn’t want to waste time. Worried that other investors’ proposals would attract his interest before her business proposal.
Evan, who had just finished his dinner, put the cutlery on the table. He looked at his girl opposite him.
"Who are you meeting with?" His voice sounds calm, but his heart does not.
He feels jealous looking at his girl smile widely when she talks to that person and her eyes. When she speaks with that person, her eyes beam like a firework emblazing the sky. It’s a sign of how thrilled she was with the challenge.
He tried to be calm so this girl wouldn’t notice that he was jealous.
"Evan..." Rose places her cellphone on the table and looks at Evan with her beaming-looking eyes. Evan felt tense, waiting for her words. "Do you know Steve Adkins? I mean, have you met him before this?" She continues her words.
"Of course, I know. I’ve known that guy for quite some time." Evan’s thick eyebrows rose slightly. "Did you know Steve Adkins too? How long have you two known each other?" A fit of jealousy swallows him because his girl knows Steve Adkins. How could they know each other? As he knows, they don’t have the opportunity to meet.
Rose shakes her head before saying, "I don’t know him personally. But I contacted him first for my business matter...." Rose told Evan about her plans to acquire Steve Adkins’ e-commerce company, Flash.
Evan was surprised to hear that.
How could this girl also want to buy Flash? In fact, he and his team have included Flash in the list of startup companies that they will acquire by the end of this year.
But it turned out that this girl was ahead of his team.
"So you guys will meet tomorrow?" Evan casually asks while drinking his cola. His heart feels better now because he knows his girl contacted Steve Adkins just for business. Not because she knows him personally.
"Yes!" Rose’s voice sounded exciting. "Evan, can you come with me? This is my first time doing this. I need someone who has experience in acquiring other companies to accompany me. It will be helpful if you can come with me...."
Actually, she could do it herself. However, she was worried that Evan would be jealous if she met other guys, so she asked him.
"Sure, I’ll come with you if you really want..." Evan was happy that Rose had asked him to meet Steve Adkins. He was curious why she was interested in buying a company with an e-commerce business. This kind of business is still foreign in this country. He wanted to know her reason and what Rose would do with Flash if she succeeded in acquiring the company.
When they returned to the hospital.
Molly’s surgery isn’t over yet. They both decided to wait in the VIP wardroom on the same floor.
"Evan, why did my mother’s surgery take so long? The doctor said the operation would only take 3-4 hours if I’m not mistaken. It’s been 5 hours now, but it’s not finished yet?" Rose, who couldn’t calm down, started walking back and forth in the room.
"It will be finished soon. Just wait here, sit with me, huh!?" Evan coaxes her, but still, his words are ignored. She kept pacing around the room. It made him dizzy to see her. After taking a deep sigh, he finally made a phone call.
After Evan hung up the phone, the sound of approaching footsteps came from the corridor outside. Rose felt tense. She immediately walked to the door and opened it to see if the doctor or nurse had any news about her mother’s condition. However, she had to be disappointed again this time because only a few nurses passed by the room.
She took a deep sigh looking at the nurse passing by.
Evan can’t stand looking at his girl and worrying about her mother. He stood from his seat and walked to her. He pulls her into his embrace while closing the door behind them.
"I know you worry about your mother, but please be patient...." Evan led her to sit on the sofa then he sat beside her. "I just made a call asking about your mother’s condition. The operation was a success. But she’s being monitored for a while before she’s transferred to the observation room."
Evan looks at his watch before he continues, "Maybe in 30 minutes or an hour, we can see her from outside the observation room. Rose, don’t worry too much...."
"Evan, thank you! Now I feel much better..." Rose threw her body to his chest while taking a deep sigh to release her worry.
Worrying about what happened in the previous life is repeated in the present life. Worry God will be angry because she changed something she shouldn’t have done. But she had no other choice, her mother’s life meant a lot to her, and the first thing she would do when she came back to this life was to keep her mother alive.
"God! I promise, from now on, I will not interfere with anyone’s life in this life even though I know what will happen to them..." Rose made a promise to God in her heart. She will avoid those things.
Except for business. This shouldn’t be a violation, right?
