Chapter 1999


    "Dad, were you looking for me?" Sebastian closed the door behind him after he entered the office.


    Dean was sitting on the rotating leather chair. Looking at his son, he said," Sebastian, you met with


    Avery already.


    How was it?"


    "It''s just like old schoolmates meeting up. Nothing much, but I feel she still looks down on me just


    like before," Sebastianined. "This woman is direct. She never gives face to others while


    talking, but I do quite like her character."


    "Give me her contact. I want to let her have a look at your brother''s illness," said Dean, revealing his


    reason for contacting his son.


    The amusement in Sebastian''s eyes was instantly gone. "Dad, didn''t you say Aunt Ang would


    help treat him?"


    "Your Aunt Ang has other things to be busy about. She can''t cope with your brother''s illness for


    now," Dean said. "Give me Avery''s number. I''ll get my assistant to contact her."


    Dean was not discussing it with Sebastian. He was ordering his son.


    Sebastian did not dare to disobey his father. He immediately wrote Avery''s contact on a piece of


    paper.


    "Dad, Avery is a little arrogant. She doesn''t take on everyone''s cases. Should you let me talk to


    her?" Sebastian was worried that if his father were to contact Avery, they would end up in conflict


    because their tempers were alike.


    "I don''t need you to deal with your brother''s matters." Dean''s eyes grew colder. "Get out!"


    Sebastian nodded and left.


    Coming out of his father''s office, Sebastian immediately took his phone out. He wanted to call


    Avery, but he did not know whether he should tell her what his father intends or not, because his


    father made it clear that he should not interfere with his brother''s matters.


    His father had agreed that they would not get an outsider to treat his brother.


    Sebastian did not know what made his father change his mind. Could it be that something has gone


    wrong between his father and his new lover, Aunt Ang?


    Aunt Ang''s full name was Ang Hills. She was in her sixties, but because she took good care of


    herself, she looked younger than she was.


    Ang studied medicine. She was once at the top of her game in the medical industry, too. She


    said that she would help treat his brother, ?h)=SLX; his father agreed without even thinking about it.


    At that moment, his father suddenly changed his mind. Sebastian was stumped.


    At four in the afternoon, Avery woke up. She slept for quite a few hours. After her nap, she felt that


    she had regained most of her energy.


    She only had a bowl of oatmeal porridge that morning. She had nothing in the afternoon, which was


    why she was famished at that moment.


    After getting out of bed, she took her phone and left the room.


    When the nanny saw her, she immediately asked if she was hungry or not.


    "We made oatmeal porridge in the afternoon and also some ravioli. If you want some pasta, I can


    make some for you, " the nanny said with a smile.


    "No need. I can just have the oatmeal porridge and ravioli."


    "Okay, the porridge is done. I''ll go heat the ravioli," the nanny said while scooping her a bowl.


    She walked over to the dining table and sat down. She looked at her phone and saw two missed


    calls.


    She had set her phone to silent when she slept, so she did not notice the iing calls.


    The number was a foreign unknown number, but they called her twice, which meant they were


    looking for her.


    She returned the call without any hesitation.


    The other party picked the call up immediately.

    "Miss Tate, hello. I am Hank Smith, assistant to Dean Jennings of MediLove Pharmaceuticals. Mr.


    Jennings would like to meet you. I wonder whether you have the time?"


    Avery was confused. Why was Dean Jennings asking to meet her?
