    Chapter 58 Was Gavin''s Hogsteadish Name Adriel Tucker?


    "Tell him directly to give up on his intentions. I won''t meet anyone from the biddingpanies until


    after the bidding is over!" Raymond said firmly.


    "That''s exactly what I told him. But he''s really persistent. He even insisted that I take a look at the


    proposal he prepared. And you know what? It''s incredibly detailed."


    "You actually looked at his proposal?"


    "Yes, I couldn''t refuse his enthusiasm."


    "Nn, tell me you didn''t take a bribe from him."


    "Raymond, you shouldn''t make baseless usations. Am I someone who''s desperate for money?


    Would I really ept a bribe from him?" Nn was infuriated by these words. "Go ahead and


    investigate. If you find that I''ve taken a single cent from him, I''ll chop off my own hand and give it to


    you!"


    "I was just joking. Why are you overreacting? Who wants your hands?"


    "Joking?" Nn couldn''t believe his ears when Raymond said it. "Raymond, is that really you? Are you


    a person like making jokes?"


    This question caught Raymond off guard. Indeed, he was never the type to make jokes.


    "Oh... I see now. Love, huh?" Raymond mocked. "People in love are different from their usual selves. I


    understand, I understand."


    "Get lost!" Raymond snapped, then checked the time and nced up at the hospital room. Damion still


    hadn''te out yet, and considering how much he liked her, the little guy probably wouldn''t leave


    soon.


    "You stay with Damion at the hospital, I''ll go back to the vi for a while."


    Raymond said before Nn could say anything, and quickly walked away.


    Today, Damion was truly content. Hey in Bethany''s embrace for a long time, talking to her and


    listening to her stories.


    "Alright, Tyrone, you''ve been here for the whole afternoon. If you don''t go back, Ainsley will start


    worrying," Bethany gently reminded him.


    "Okay, Beth." After speaking, Damion kissed her on the cheek and said, "Take good care of yourself


    and your health."


    "I will," Bethany responded.


    Reluctantly, Damion left the hospital room. Not long after he had left, Raymond entered, carrying a


    lunchbox in his hand.


    "I asked the doctor, as long as it''s not spicy or hard-to-digest food, you don''t have many dietary


    restrictions," Raymond said as he brought the food out.


    Soon, the whole room was filled with the aroma of the meal. The food he had bought for her earlier was


    light, but this time it was particrly sumptuous.


    "Try it," Raymond ced all the dishes in front of her and handed her the knife and fork.


    This man really was unpredictable. Just a moment ago, he was so fierce when he left, but now he was


    being gentle.


    Bethany was indeed hungry at this moment, so she picked up a bite and put it in her mouth. Raymond

    hurriedly asked, "How does it taste?"


    "Mhmm." Bethany nodded with certainty. "Good."


    "Really?" Raymond''s face lit up with a smile when he heard Bethany say it was delicious.


    "It''s really tasty. Where did you buy it from? The vor is great."


    "I made it," Raymond said, and even his expression seemed a little proud.


    "You made it?" Bethany was quite surprised, but when she remembered the first time she went to his


    house and he was wearing an apron in the kitchen, it was evident that he really knew how to cook.


    "Why do you know how to cook? Did you learn it in the military?"


    "For someone in the army, knowing how to cook is a basic survival skill," Raymond added, "And more


    importantly, my son is quite picky with his food. I''ve gotten used to cooking for him myself."


    "I can''t tell that the busy Mr. Zav is also a good father."


    "Thank you for thepliment," Raymond said.


    Bethany smiled, then continued eating. This was the best and most abundant meal she had had since


    being in the hospital. She was particrly satisfied.


    "If you like the food, I don''t mind making more for you," Raymond said.


    "In your words, even though you''re boring and annoying, being able to cook is a positive trait," Bethany


    replied.


    Raymond merely snorted and didn''t say anything else.


    After finishing their meal, Morgan knocked on the door and walked in, holding a bouquet of flowers. He


    greeted respectfully, "Mr. Zav."


    Then he ced the flowers on the table and said to Bethany, "Dr. Caldwell, I''ve been wanting toe


    and visit you, but I heard that your health hasn''t been good, so I didn''t dare toe."


    "Thank you, Morgan," Bethany expressed her gratitude.


    Morgan responded with a polite smile, then handed a stack of documents to Raymond, wanting to


    report to him. However, he hesitated and nced at Bethany.


    "It''s alright." Bethany didn''t understand his work matters, and he didn''t want to avoid her.


    "Mr. Zav, a total of sixteenpanies are participating in the bidding this time. The bidding


    documents of these sixteenpanies have been discussed in a meeting. After several rounds of


    meetings, tenpanies have been eliminated, leaving sixpanies. All the documents are here for


    you to review. The final decision on whichpany to choose will be made after your meeting."


    Ten out of sixteen have been eliminated, leaving six?


    Raymond took the documents and said, "I see. You can go and attend to your work."


    "Okay, Mr. Zav, Dr. Caldwell, then I''ll leave." Morgan slightly bowed to both of them and then walked


    out.


    "You can focus on your work, I''ll just read for a while and won''t disturb you," Bethany said as she


    picked up the book ced by the bedside and started reading.


    This woman was considerate in this aspect. So, Bethanyy sitting on the hospital bed reading medical


    books while Raymond sat upright at the desk reviewing the documents.


    The warm light shone on them, creating a quiet atmosphere with a hint of warmth.


    While reviewing the documents, Raymond asionally nced at Bethany. He noticed that she was


    reading the book with great concentration, as if she was studying. He also noticed that she would


    asionally make various marks in the book.


    Despite already having impressive medical skills, her continuousmitment to learning was truly


    remarkable.


    Raymond redirected his gaze and continued reading the documents in his hand. After finishing one


    Ocean International Company?


    Although Ocean International Company was arge corporation, this was their first venture into the


    construction industry. Subconsciously, Raymond thought they might not be very experienced, assuming


    that thispany would be among the ten eliminated ones.


    To his surprise, it was actually one of the six chosenpanies. Coupled with Nn''sment about


    their detailed business proposal, Raymond became slightly interested and wanted to see how they had


    performed.


    So he opened the document. The first section provided a detailed overview of Ocean International


    Company, followed by information about its subsidiary, Ocean Construction, including details about


    their CEO, Gavin.


    Raymond was taken aback by Gavin''s age. It was unusual for someone so young to hold the position


    of director in a subsidiarypany of arge corporation like Ocean International Company.


    Raymond had already intended to turn to the next page, but suddenly he noticed Gavin''s Hogsteadish


    name, Adriel Tucker?
