Chapter <b>250</b>
Meanwhile, in the Moore family’s master bedroom, Quintin <b>forced </b>himself to watch the surgery livestream, his heart pounding.
He never expected that Lea would actually manage to bring Dr. Berry in to perform the seemingly impossible surgery, demonstrating once a her exceptional medical skills.
Moreover, Leagged Riverview Hospital during this time, indicating a deep connection with the hospital.
It was clear <b>that </b>Dr. Terry was at Lea’smand.
“Quintin, are you thinking–Jessie looked <b>at </b>Quintin, her unfinished sentence leaving an unspoken understanding between them.
again
After a brief silence, she continued, “Just <b>because </b>no one else couldplete the heart surgery before the bone marrow transnt doesn’t mean Dr. Berry can’t do it. In fact…..”
She gazed at Quintin, her eyes filled with astonishment.
“She can perform both surgeries simultaneously!” she added.
Quintin’s heart raced <b>as </b>he had been thinking along the <b>same </b>lines. Hearing Jessic articte it made his heart skip a beat.
Since Quintin fell seriously ill, he had been desperately seeking medical help for years, hoping for a cure <b>and </b>a <b>chance </b>to live. Dr. Berry was his most <b>promising </b>hope.
“Til visit that child in the next couple of days and try to bring her home as soon as possible. Quintin said.
Previously, Shannon had visited them once and offered advice.it now seemed that she wasn’t trying to curry favor but genuinely had confidence in her ability.
They both regretted not believing Shannon at the time.
Quintin suddenly realized that it was rted to Leona.
His expression darkened immediately “No, she is our biological daughter.
It wasn’t that Quintin truly cared about Shannon being his biological daughter but rather that, at present, she could save his life.
For someone like Lea, rtionships were more valuable than money or power. Her friendship with Shannon could make her save him. Jessie’s expression changed, and looking into his profound, unfathomable eyes, she couldn’t quite understand him but <b>grasped </b>his meaning. At this moment, Shannon held the same importance in his heart as his own life.
She lowered her head. Tunderstand,”
Quintin’s secretary, <b>Paul</b>, knocked on the door from outside. “Mr. Moore, have you taken a break!”
Quintin, exhausted from staying up all night watching the livestream, looked worn our Jessie noticed and, seeing that he intended to let <b>Paul </b><b>in</b>, answered for him. “Come in.”
“Mr. and Mrs. Moore!” Paul entered, dressed in a <b>ck </b>business suit, usually calm andposed but now showing rare excitement.
He handed over a tablet. “I know you’re following the news about Riverview Hospital. Please take a look <b>at </b>this”
Jessie took the tablet, nced at it, and her pupils widened <b>in </b>shock. She quickly handed it to Quintin
Quintin took it and his eyes, once dim and somber, now gleamed with renewed intensity.
The news was from Yestoudian Prime Minister in Crefan.
“No wonder…” His voice trembled with excitement. “Riverview Hospital has the highest political backing from Yostoudor, Crefant
Even the powerful families in Iverson and the first family, the Andrews family, didn’t have such a background.
For years, the Andrews family had been trying to establish such connections but with no breakthrough.
This means Riverview Hospital will soon be back to normal operations, Quintin said, relieved. His condition could be treated sooner than expected

“Congrattions, Mr. Moore, Pand said<b>, </b>visibly thrilled. “<b>Shall </b>I contact Riverview Hospital now!”
He shook his head and turned to Jessie, “Have Shannon handle this”
Jessie nodded. “I understand. I’ll take care of it as soon <b>as </b>possible.”
Paul nodded in agreement. He was aware of Shannon’s connections <b>and </b>knew that leveraging them would be ideal.
As he left the bedroom, Ise nearly bumped into Leona standing behind the door, startling him. “Miss Moore?”
Leona, holding a tray, stood frozen with a pale face.
Hearing his voice, she nervously stepped forward. “Dad, Mom…”
<b>Leona </b>entered the room. “I saw the lights still on and brought some soup that Mia made. Dad, you should drink it while it’s still warm.”
“<b>Why </b>are <b>you </b>bringing soup at this hour? Get out Quintin’s rare outburst <b>was </b>filled with irritation
Leona, who had just stepped inside, froze at the door
Before her background was revealed, their attitude toward her had been rtively good. Since then, Quintin’s demeanor had been cold at times, but this <b>was </b>the first instance of unmasked disdain<b>.</b>
Even Jessic looked angry <b>and </b>repulsed.
Leona had repeatedly targeted Shannon and even Lea in the hospital, trying to create rifts between them and prevent Shannon from being brought home
Her actions to protect her position in the Moore family, disregarding Quintin’s well–being, had crossed their bottom line.
“Dad, Mom I was careless. I’m sorry, Ill take this out right <b>away </b>Leona apologized sincerely, exited, and shut the door behind her.
The couple exchanged a knowing <b>nce </b>and said nothing more.
Leon quickly returned the soup to the kitchen, dashed upstairs, and locked herself in her room with a <b>bang</b><b>, </b>taking <b>a </b>deep breath.
She had overheard Paul and her <b>parents</b>‘ conversation.
They were now seeking Dr. Berry and Riverview Hospital for Quintin’s treatment, and trying to <b>win </b>over Shannon. From their perspective, Leona’s previous efforts to prevent <b>Shannon </b>frons returning to the Moore family were seen as attempts to hinder Quintin’s recovery.
Even though she was only an adopted doughter<b>, </b>anyone who obstructed Quintin’s treatment had no ce in this family.
Leona’s previous actions were not to stop Quintin from being saved but merely to keep Shannon away
But now, her parents would perceive a differently.
With Shannon’s return and the benefits she could offer the Moore family, Leona knew she would <b>have </b>no ce in the family anymore.
Leona’s mind raced with a single thought, She hail to destroy Shannon before she returned.
Leona wrung her hands, drenched in cold sweat, unable to calm herself,
She quickly texted Abigail, informing her that after seeing the news from Yostoudian Prime Minister in Crefan, her parents believed Riverview Hospital had significant influence and would thrive in Iverton. The Moore family would fully support it
She knew Abigail would never let Lea rise in Iverton and would do everything to stop her.
“What I can’t do, Abigail can definitely aplish, Leona thought.
Unable to sleep, Abigail read the message with rising agitation, gripping her phone and pacing back <b>and </b>forth in her room.
She could not allow Lea to seed and overshadow her.
Outside Madicia Vi, a long Lincoln limousine had just pulled up.
Milion, who <b>had </b>just gotten up, hesitated before sitting back down, staring intently at the news on his phone. His eyes widened with <b>a </b><b>spark </b>of interest, and a smile slowly formed on his lips
Yostoudian Prime Minister in Crefan Lea, the surprises you bring <b>are </b>endless. <b>You </b>truly are someone I’ve taken notice of, he thought.

Milton needed to build rtions with such a skilled doctor. It would be highly beneficial.
“Yes,” Thomas replied.
Even without Milton’s instructions, Thomas would have conducted a thorough investigation.
Til uncover everything about Lea and show Mr. Andrews what kind of person she really is. When someone is no longer <b>a </b>mystery, their allure diminishes. Maybe then Mr. Andrews will lose interest in her. This might just be a way to indirectly help Mr. Andrews Thomas resolved.
With Riverview <b>Hospital </b>unable to open, the night was quiet
Alfred <b>drove </b>into the underground employee parking lot and, along with Lea, took the private elevator to the top floor, her private office and residence.
As they entered, they <b>saw </b>Christian, using a cane, pacing the living room.
<b>“</b>Grandpa, are you still awake?” <b>Lea </b>approached him, helping him to sit on the sofa. “Didn’t I tell you everything would be taken care of and to stop worrying? You should get some rest.
“L… I’m <b>not </b>worried about you. I’m just old and need less sleep!” Christian retorted
Lea tilted her head and nced at him with a look <b>that </b>seemed to say, ‘Don’t lie to me. I’m a gContent property of N?velDra/ma.Org.

Christian <b>nced </b>between her and Alfred. ‘It’s sote, yet you stay together. I’d break his legs if it weren’t for the current situation.
Alfred silently stepped <b>back</b>, trying to keep his long legs hidders
“Did you go to Conrad Hospital?” Christian had already been briefed by Chris, but he still asked.
