Chapter 720
Mila did not dare disturb Drew. She knew that Drew harbored a
resentment toward her and this family.
Although she poured her heart out for this family and sincerely loved Wyatt and his children, in Drew’s
eyes, she would always be the
woman who broke his father’s monogamous marriage. Celeste and
Sasha came after her.
If Mila had not intruded into their family, perhaps Wyatt would not
have had so many women.
Being the first “mistress” to appear, Mila bore the most criticism and pressure, always carrying
immense guilt with her.
“There’s no time to lose. I’ll call Arnold now.”
As long as it was something Bella asked for, Mila had to solve it for
her immediately. She picked up her phone and dialed her nephew’s
number.
After a few rings, a young and clear voice came from the other end of the phone. It sounded
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtunexpectedly youthful. “Aunt Mila, I miss you
so much!”
“Arnold, are you busy lately? You did not even call me. Are you having so much fun outside that you
have forgotten your aunt?” Mila deliberately teased.
“How could it be? You’re the last person I will ever forget. Beautiful women have a significant place in
my heart, especially a beauty like you, Aunt Mila.” Arnold’s flattering words came effortlessly.
Bella discreetly raised her brows.
The way Arnold talked to Mila reminded Bella of the charming seducer, George Wickham from Jane
Austen’s .
It was not what she had imagined.
“Arnold, you’re not young anymore. I could praise you for being charming if you said this when you
were younger, but it’s corny now,”
Mila chuckled as she teased.
“Corny? I’m only 27. Men only start to seem corny when they’re thirty.”
Arnold smirk. “If I’m not mistaken, quite a few of my cousins have reached thirty. You must have seen
too many corny men. You should
come to visit me in Meridan to cleanse your eyes. Haha!”
Bella heard everything and gritted her teeth. She thought, ‘Why does
this man have such a foul mouth?’
“Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore.”
Mila cleared her throat and hesitated before saying, “Arnold, I actually
called you because I need a favor.”
“Just tell me directly. Don’t use the word ‘favor”.”
Mila paused for a moment and said softly, “Can you make time to come back to Savrow? I have an
acquaintance who was struck in the
head a few days ago and nearly lost his life. After undergoing surgery,
his condition stabilized, but it left him with serious after-effects.
Arnold, you are a genius in this field. Can you try to treat him for my
sake?”
“An acquaintance? Who is it?” Arnold asked.
Mila glanced at Bella, who had a nervous look. “Come back first. bring you to meet him.”
“Aunt Mila, you know my rules. The first thing I need to know is a
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmpatient’s identity and background. If not, I won’t do anything.” Arnold
did not fall for it.
This man was much harder to deal with than Bella had thought.
Mila had no choice but to be honest. “He’s Justin Salvador, an
important friend of Bella’s.”
“Justin Salvador? The president of the Salvador Corporation in
Savrow?” Arnold’s tone immediately changed.
“Yes.”
“Aunt Mila, I have other matters to attend to. Goodbye.”
“Arnold! Listen to me first!”
“There’s nothing to be said, Aunt Mila. You know my rules. I went to Meridan alone, developing my
career without anyone to rely on,
because I couldn’t stand how the hospitals in Savrow worshiped private corporations and the rich.
When I worked at a hospital in Savrow, I witnessed a poor couple kneel in front of the director’s office,
begging for a heart transplant that should have belonged to their daughter!”
