Alex smiled and said, “This place sounds fun from what you guys talk about. I also want to have a chance to go inside and take a look.”
Xyla said, “You miss her, don’t you? It’s only been a month! There’s still such a long period in the future, what should you do then? But, Daya does have the opportunity to send information to the outside once every six months. She should write to you, I’ll let you know when the time comes.”
“Thanks!”
“You don’t have to be so polite with me!” Xyla glanced at him, then continued to focus on driving.
They finally arrived in Michigan. The car came to a stop at the entrance of the general hospital of Michigan navy.
Xyla said, “Alex, the management of this hospital is quite strict. You can’t get in without a special pass or person leading you in. So, I won’t be going in.”
Alex nodded. “You go back and get some rest!”
As he said that, he got out of the car while giving Phoebe a call.
Very soon, two women ran out from inside the building, they were none other than Wayne Larsen’s wife, Grace Larsen and her daughter, Phoebe Larsen. Grace’s left hand was wrapped in bandages. At a glance, Alex could tell that her left arm was broken.
“Alex!” Grace immediately pulled Alex’s arm the moment she came out. She had the enthusiasm of a mother-in-law when seeing her son-in-law.
Meanwhile, Phoebe stood at the side silently without saying a word.
“Aunt Grace, how is Uncle Wayne now?” Alex asked.
A concerned look was on Grace’s face. “It’s not very optimistic. We’ve found a few experts but they all didn’t have any good methods! This child, Phoebe, kept insisting that you’re a very good doctor and had to call you over. I don’t even know what else to say! But, she would try anything in a crisis like this, so please don’t blame her. I happen to be a little busy taking care of her father for the coming days. Alex, since you’re here, just help me to take care of her for a few days, okay?”
Alex touched his nose, then nodded.
It was obvious that Grace didn’t believe that he had the capabilities to cure Wayne, but she still believed in his skills.
Phoebe said, “Mom, this jerk’s medical skills are really amazing. Forget it, you won’t believe me no matter what I say. Seeing is believing! I believe that if there’s anyone in this word who can save Dad, it must be this guy!”
“What did you call him?” Grace was stunned as her eyes were fixed on her daughter.
However, she was still very happy for her girl believing in Alex so much.
Phoebe glanced at Alex. “It’s only a nickname, he still calls me Doggie!”
Grace was taken aback for a moment before showing a relieved smile.
Soon, under the lead of the mother-daughter pair, Alex came to Wayne’s ward. As a result, he found that there were still others in the ward.
A twenty six or twenty seven year old young man and a woman in her early twenties were both well dressed and had decent temperament. However, the young man was slightly stunned when he saw Grace pulling a young man into the room. He opened his mouth to ask, “Aunt Grace, this is…?”
Grace smiled lightly and said, “This is my friend’s child, his name is Alex Rockefeller. Alex and Phoebe have been childhood sweethearts since they were young.”
‘What?’
The moment the young man heard that, his face darkened.
The young man was Easton Zimmer, the son of Michigan’s governor, and was also a suitor of Phoebe. The young woman at the side was Easton’s sister, Viole Zimmer.
Viole was also upset instantly. She examined Alex from top to bottom, and was cold throughout the entire process. After studying him, she was full of disdain, feeling that Alex was like the kind of loser hailing from the bottom of society. How could such a person be comparable with her brother?
He was just digging his own grave!
She opened her mouth to say, “Aunt Grace, didn’t you guys go and get some miracle doctor? Where is that person?”
Phoebe pointed to Alex. “He’s the miracle doctor!”
Easton sneered through his nose. He couldn’t help but laugh disdainfully as he said, “Heh, Sis Phoebe, I’m afraid you’ve been deceived by some unscrupulous guy!”
Viole nodded and said, “That’s right. This guy is just some loser at a glance. How could he possibly be any miracle doctor?”
