Chapter 13 East Coast Hospital
Chapter 13 East Coast Hospital
"Mom..."
Chris wanted to explain it, but Susan didn't even give him a chance. She turned around and left. John looked at Chris and sighed.
He also wanted a capable son-in-law like Alfred. Then they would live a good life.
But John knew it was impossible.
Thinking of this, John shook his head and left.
After John and Susan left, Chris, Esther, and Hope went back to the basement.
There was only one bed in the basement, and it was very small, so Chris had to sleep on the floor. Thinking of the sufferings today, Esther couldn't help weeping on the bed.
Chris heard her weeping. He felt sorry and comforted her, "Sorry, Esther. I know I shamed you today. I promise..."
Before Chris could finish his words, Esther interrupted him, "Forget it. I don't care if you are really mad. Anyway, you are my husband and my daughter's father. I don't care about anything else, as long as we are together.”
Chris was moved by her words.
"Esther, don't worry. I will ensure you live a good life. Oh, by the way, I've found a good doctor at East Coast Hospital. Our daughter can have surgery tomorrow."
Esther was delighted, "Really? East Coast Hospital is the best hospital in this city. How did you make it?"
Chris smiled, "I have a good friend here. He's quite powerful in East Coast, so I asked him for help." Chris didn't tell Esther his real identity. After all, even if he spoke the truth, Esther wouldn't believe it. Esther didn't doubt Chris's words.
Chris had worked for the military for five years. Definitely, he should have some powerful friends there.
Now that her dear daughter could finally have surgery, Esther felt relieved.
The night was quiet.
The next day, they got up early.
"Esther, my friend is waiting for us."
"OK. I'm coming!”
Esther hurriedly washed her face and took Hope out.
When she came out, she was shocked by the scene.
There were about ten military vehicles parked on the road. Every one of them was filled with armed soldiers.
Tiger, who wore the combat uniform, came over and said respectfully to Chris, "Master, please!" Chris nodded. Obviously, he was used to Tiger's respectful attitude.
When they got in the car, Esther whispered to Chris, "Chris, you have a powerful friend. He can even order so many soldiers.”
Chris just smiled and didn't speak. He would have called a helicopter here if he were not afraid that it would scare Esther.
Even so, Esther was very surprised.
Esther looked at Tiger on the passenger's seat and asked, "Hello, are you Chris's friend?"
Friend?
Tiger turned around and was confused.
Nobody was qualified to be Chris's friend all over the country.
Tiger looked at Chris and saw Chris wink at him.
Tiger knew his meaning. He smiled, "Yeah. I'm Master's friend.”
Esther asked curiously, "Why do you call him Master? What is Master?"
Tiger scratched his head and said, "It is a very long story..."
Tiger didn't know how to explain it. Chris smiled, "Esther, Master means the master of all the armed forces."
Chris was the Primus, and also the master of the navy, the air force, and the ground forces.
Well!
Esther didn't know what it meant, but she nodded and didn't ask more.
"Dad, can we always be so cool?" Hope looked at Chris and asked expectantly.
Chris smiled and answered, "Of course, we can. You are my daughter.”
As the daughter of the Primus, Hope was the most respected princess of the country.
At the gate of East Coast Hospital, hundreds of doctors were waiting.
Last night, the president of the hospital, Dr. McKinney, received a phone call.
He got the news that a big shot would come to his hospital for his daughter's illness.
He was asked to be well-prepared.
If any accident happened, today would be his last day for this job.
Definitely, he didn't want to lose his job, so he summoned all the doctors in the hospital here to welcome the big shot.
"Dr. McKinney, who is coming? Why are you so respectful?”
The vice president, Dr. Newton, asked in confusion.
Dr. McKinney shook his head and answered, "I don't know. But we are ordered to be well-prepared, or every one of us will be punished.”
Dr. Newton was shocked by these words.
He became more curious.
Who was the big shot? Why did they have to be so respectful?
Dr. McKinney looked at his watch and was a little nervous.
It was already eight o'clock, but the person still hadn't arrived.
"Vroom!"
Just at this moment, they heard the rumble of the car engines.
Ten military vehicles sped over.
Then, hundreds of soldiers got out of the vehicles.
Such a scene shocked all the doctors here.
Who would that be? How powerful he must have been!
Then, a man in a combat uniform with four stars on his shoulder got out of the vehicle.
A four-star general!
Dr. McKinney got more nervous as he saw the uniform.
Commander of the East Coast was only a three-star general.
But this man had four stars on his uniform.
After Tiger got out of the car, he opened the door for Chris.
Chris carried his daughter, held his wife's hand, and got out of the car.
When Esther got out of the car, she was shocked by the scene.
Hundreds of doctors in East Coast Hospital were waiting for them at the gate.
It was the first time Esther had ever seen such a shocking scene.
"Welcome to East Coast Hospital!"
Dr. McKinney came over with a smile.
Tiger looked at him and said indifferently, "This is Mr. Shelby.”
Mr. Shelby?
Was he the person who they had to serve?
Even the general with four stars opened the door for him. Who the hell was he?
Then, Dr. McKinney looked at Chris.
Chris looked ordinary, but his eyes were bottomless.
His eyes seemed to be able to swallow anything in the world.
