After a period of preparation, Riverview Hospital’s headquarters was fully renovated and ready. Today <b>was </b>the grand opening and ribbon–cutting ceremony, marking its <b>official </b>start of operations.
Lea replied, “Okay.”
Hanging up the phone, she had a rxed smile. This was the only thing <b>in </b>recent days worth celebrating.
As Lea left the school gates, she saw Jason’s car parked by the roadside. He had been responsible for driving her to and from school recently.
She walked over and opened the passenger door. Then, her eyes lit up with surprise and joy. “Alfred.”
Alfred, dressed in a custom–made <b>ck </b>suit with his <b>hair </b>styled, looked distinguished and regal. He was like a god from mythology. Just seeing <b>him </b>like this made her heart flutter.
Alfred smiled slightly and gestured. “Get in
The car drove forward, and in half an hour, they arrived at the city center, at the headquarters of Riverview SmartMed.
From a distance, she could see the sign on the twenty–eight–story <b>building</b>. Vaporleon City Riverview Hospital”
The bold, powerful letters exuded grandeur. The newly renovated hospital had several neatly arranged buildings<b>, </b>a well–nned park, beautiful.ndscaping, <b>and </b><b>a </b>vibrant atmosphere.
The exterior alone was impressive and modern, leaving a great impression.
The ribbon<b>–</b>cutting ceremony had been specially arranged. A red carpet stretched from the road entrance to the outpatient hall, <b>lined </b>with flowers and banners.
The banners read, “Riverview SmartMed. Focusing on the future of smart healthcare.<b>”</b>
“Serving patients with the most <b>advanced </b>medical technology”
“Patients alwayse first.”
<b>“</b>Caring for life, pursuing excellence, <b>practicing </b>medicine with virtue.
“Dr. Berry, the miraculous healer<b>, </b>creating life miracles!”
There were many more striking decorations.
The area outside the hospital was packed with people, buzzing with excitement. The car circled the square, heading <b>towards </b>the parking lot.
Peering out the window in surprise, Lea asked. “Why are there so many people?”
She thought it was <b>just </b>a regr hospital opening and didn’t expect such a crowd..
Alfred turned to look at her, pride evident in his eyes. “Dr. Berry gave our hospital a great gili.
<b>Lea </b>paused, then understood. Donna’s live–streamed surgery had taken the medical world by storm.
The hospital’s opening needed promotion, and revealing that “Dr. Berry” was coborating with the hospital for high–difficulty surgeries garnered massive attention. Medical <b>professionals</b>, patients, and citizens were all focused on the opening
Patients from the former <b>Andrews </b><b>Hospital </b>had also transferred here. Both patients and their families had a <b>good </b>impression of the hospital and strongly supported it
Alfred <b>said</b>, “All those flowers and banners were sent by <b>people </b>like doctors, patients, even colleagues, And there are many gifts too.
The car stopped opposite the main square, where the ribbon–cutting spot could be seen. Alfred parked so she could get a good view.
Lea was shocked to receive gifts.

With the window down, <b>under </b>the bright sun, the grand scene and waves of cheers reached her. She couldn’t help but smile, 1 involuntarily
Having her own foundation and strength gave her confidence and joy.
She even felt a bit excited about going <b>to </b>Iverton to face those formidable opponents.
Alfred turned to look at Lea in her school uniform, whose confident and elegant demeanor radiated from within like a blooming flower. He couldn’t help but smile too, filled with <b>joy </b>and pride.
He asked. “Do you want to attend the ribbon–cutting? There’s a stylist and a dress <b>ready</b>
Although he knew <b>Lea</b><b>, </b>as the major shareholder and boss, wouldn’t personally attend the ribbon–cutting, he had still asked Chris to prepare.
“A dress too?” Lea looked surprised.This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Alfred nodded. “Yes”
Tll <b>pass</b>.” She felt a bit disappointed inside.
This hospital was not only her career and leverage but also her dream deep down. She wanted to <b>advance </b>the medical field and benefit <b>humanity</b>.
So. Lea was excited and passionate inside. But a week ago, when Chris asked her, she had already declined.
Matilda’s people were watching her closely, so she couldn’t openly step out.
She had to remain hidden to maintain her <b>advantage</b>. She turned to Alfred. The disappointment in her heart dissipated, reced by satisfaction. “Alfred, having you by my side is enough,” she said, her eyes moist with emotion as she tried to control her feelings.
Alfred had initially wanted to say <b>that </b>she could participate if she wanted <b>and </b>that he could protect her. But now, he responded with <b>a </b>sofi “Okay” His eyes were filled with tenderness.
“This way,” he said, driving the car around before entering the underground parking lot. They got out and took the elevator to the top floor of the outpatient building, where they could overlook the entire ribbon–cutting ceremony.
The hospital had invited important figures from medical institutions, as well as the mayor-

Then, the confetti <b>cannon </b>boomed, showering the crowd in golden confetti. The crowd cheered and apuded thunderously.
Watching this grand scene, Lea’s smile grew brighter, and she felt even more confident. She vowed to be stronger than those <b>who </b>had trampled her in her previous life
Alfred looked at her with a gentle gaze.
“This is just the <b>beginning</b>. One <b>day</b>, your Riverview Hospital will spread across the country and the world,” he said with <b>a </b>gentle and certain tone. “Lea, you will make <b>this </b>hospital the <b>best </b>in the world”
Lea suddenly turned to meet <b>his </b>gaze. In the sunlight, the light in his eyes illuminated her entire being, and her <b>eyes </b>gradually brightened
The dream buried deep <b>within </b>her heart awoke fully, spreading through her body, <b>and </b>making her blood boil uncontrobly.
