Chapter 158 Please Hire a Nurse
“What’s wrong? You don’t want to go?” Corine asked softly as she looked at Adele’s incredulous expression.
“I… I was just a little surprised.” Adele came back to her senses and asked.
In the past two years, she also knew that sometimes the company would give some outstanding employees a chance to study, but such a good thing had never fallen on her.
“As long as you work hard, everything is possible.” Corine said matter-of-factly.
“This time, we are going to a company in Thailand. They have been working with our company for several years. These years, they have developed rapidly. I heard that their management mode is very worth learning, so this time, the company arranged an opportunity. Each department chooses an employee to study for three to four days.”
Hearing her say this, Adele was surprised and happy. He could not hide his excitement and asked, “Corine, are you really going to let me go this time?”
Previously, the department had such a good opportunity. When only one person was allowed to go, the “a would usually be Grace’s, but she did not expect that Corine would choose her this time.
Seeing Corine nod, Adele was immediately elated. “Thank you, Corine!”
Coming out of the office, Adele still had a smile on her face. This news was the best news for her in recent times.
She passed through the office area and was about to walk to her office when a familiar figure suddenly walked over. It was Grace.
Adele stopped smiling and glanced at Grace. Without saying anything, he walked straight over.
Grace watched her brush past him, a trace of coldness flashing across his face.
She still remembered the scene of last night at Zstan. Originally, she deliberately provoked the relationship between Adele and Song Qi, waiting to see her get beaten up. Unexpectedly, in the end, she saw Mr. Yusuf appear. This was definitely a big melon that shocked her.
It turned out that Adele and Damon knew each other, and they seemed to be quite familiar. When she thought of the inexplicable promotion of Adele and the matter of Sherry, she immediately understood.
It turned out that Damon was the backer behind Adele.
This layer of relationship was enough to make Grace feel a little afraid, but after fear, it was more of disgust towards Adele.
A woman like her who relied on a man to rise up was the most disgusting!
Just now, when she saw Adele come out of the supervisor’s office with a smile, she already knew in her heart that this time, the “a for going out to Thailand to study was definitely hers!
The more Grace thought about it, the angrier she became. When she returned to the office, she was also not in the mood to work. She bit her lips and quickly thought of a plan.
A few minutes later, she glanced at the phone on the table. She took a deep breath and bit her lips. She picked it up and sent a message to Sherry. Lu, how has your body been recovering recently? I want to see you this weekend.
Her ability to be alone was too weak, but Sherry was different. Her uncle was the high-ranking manager of the company. With this background, wouldn’t it be easier to deal with Adele than her?
For the whole day, Adele was in a good mood. The bonus and the “a for going out to study made her full of motivation no matter what she did. After work, she did not hesitate. She naturally went to the hospital to visit Professor Wes and Ms. Henderson and share the good news with them.
She specially bought a few boxes of pastries that Professor Wes liked. When she came out of the elevator, her footsteps were still light. She walked through the corridor and walked for a while. From afar, she saw the door of the ward. Ms. Henderson was holding the wall with one hand and pressing his temple with the other.
“Mom, what’s wrong?” Adele asked.
When Ms. Henderson heard the voice, he quickly looked up and saw her. The expression on his face immediately changed, and he quickly said, “It’s okay, it’s okay.”
Although she said this, Adele still noticed her strangeness. Her face was tired, and she was not as good as she looked the last time. They had not seen each other for a few days, and she had even lost weight.
“Mom, tell me the truth. Are you feeling unwell?”
In the past few days, Professor Wes had been staying in the hospital. Naturally, Ms. Henderson had to stay by his side to take care of him and could not leave.
“It’s really nothing. I probably didn’t sleep well last night.” Ms. Henderson waved his hand and said in a casual tone.
Seeing her mother’s tired look, Adele felt a little distressed. She pulled Ms. Henderson into the ward and helped her sit down on the chair.
“What’s wrong?” Professor Wes was reading a newspaper on the hospital bed and could not help but ask when he saw this scene, “What’s wrong?”
“Mom is not feeling well. Maybe she is tired recently.”
Hearing this, Professor Wes sighed and said, “I asked your mom to go home at night. She refused no matter what. She always stayed by my bed. How can she rest well?”
Hearing his words, Adele finally understood. It turned out that Ms. Henderson had worked so hard these days. It was no wonder that she had a headache, exhaustion, and discomfort.
“Dad, Mom, how about this? I will find a nurse to help mom relieve some of her burden. I will be more at ease.” Adele thought for a while and suggested, “Dad, Mom, how about this? I will find a nurse to help mom relieve some of her burden.”
“What nurse? I can take care of them by myself.” Ms. Henderson disagreed and shook his head repeatedly.
“Mom, don’t refuse. Dad will have an operation when the time comes. The days are still long. Do you want to tire yourself out?” Adele frowned and insisted.
“And I gave a quarterly bonus today. It’s quite a lot. I can hire a nurse.”
Seeing that Adele was determined, Professor Wes and Ms. Henderson could not refuse anymore and had to agree.
After chatting with them for a while, Adele left the ward and went to the nurse to ask about the nurse.
After the nurse pointed out the department where the nurse should be handled, Adele followed her instructions and found the place.
“Miss Wes, this is the information of the nurse who has time here. Take a look first.”
“Okay.”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
After Adele agreed, he flipped through the information the nurse handed him. After looking through a few pages, his finger suddenly paused and his gaze fell on the photo of the nurse on the third page of the information sheet.
The girl in the photo had a delicate face and clear eyes. There were two small dimples on both sides of her cheeks.
Was it her?
Adele immediately looked at the information on the upper left corner. When he saw the three words “Xiaoman Lu”, he was surprised.
It was really her!
This was an old friend of hers. She used to live in a community, but then Xiaoman’s family suddenly moved home and they lost contact from then on.
She didn’t expect that after a few years, they would meet again in such a way.
When she saw the woman in the photo, Adele couldn’t help but think of the past. It was a memory from high school. Xiaoman Lu was older than her and they often met in the community, but they never talked.
Later, she went home after the evening study and was followed by a boy. She was so scared that Xiaoman Lu smashed the boy away with a brick and protected her. From then on, the two of them became good friends who had nothing to talk about.
But in the blink of an eye, several years had passed.
Adele took a deep breath, took out Xiaoman Lu’s file, handed it to the nurse and asked, “Nurse, can I meet her?”
