More than an hour has passed since Lucia rushed back to the hospital from the villa.
After settling down Bill, Lucia immediately called a doctor to examine him, and when she learned that
his condition was still normal, she was finally relieved.
Seeing Bill lying in bed already asleep, Elisa called her out and said to her, "Lucia, we are sorry to
blame you for what happened today, please forgive your dad because he was in a bad mood recently."
Lucia smiled at her and said, "Mom, I understand."
She understood that under psychological pressure, Bill naturally would be nervous and irritable, so she
wouldn't keep it in mind.
"Thanks for your understanding.Let me check your face, is it still painful?"
Saying that Elisa stretched out her hand and peered closely at her face.
Although Elisa usually nagged Lucia, she loved her daughter deeply, until seeing the bruise had
disappeared almost invisible, she was relieved.
Lucia was moved and she quickly reached out to hold her wrist and I said in a lighter voice, "Mom, I've
already found Dr.Long's contact information, so I'll contact him later to talk about the surgery plan."
Elisa smiled and immediately nodded, "I heard the doctor say, your father needs to have an operation
as soon as possible to promise a higher success rate."
Lucia nodded excitedly and chatted with her for a few more minutes before picking up her phone to call
Dr.Long.
She greeted him politely and asked some questions about Bill’s situation.
Dr.Long answered patiently and talked about the surgery plan and 4 the surgery time with her, but
when it came to the cost he paused, "Regarding the cost of this operation, I hope you should prepare
at least one and a half million because we will use the best medicine I to reduce the risk as much as
possible."
[ Upon hearing this, Lucia’s hand holding the phone trembled slightly, and stunned for two seconds
before slowly coming back to her senses, "One and a half million?"
"Yes, there may be extra costs for medication maintenance and tests later on."
Lucia took a deep breath and said determinedly, "Okay, Dr.Long, I understand, when we raise enough
money here, we hope to operate as soon as possible."
Dr.Long said, "If you need to operate as soon as possible, then try to advance a bit, because I have
other arrangements next month, and if you push it back further the operation may not be scheduled."
"Yes, I'll try my best."
After hanging up the phone, Lucia stood in place helplessly.
She also did not expect that it would cost so much money.
These years, Elisa usually took part in volunteer activities without any income, only Bill could earn
money as a college professor.
Although they were not poor, it was difficult for them to afford this operation.
She was anxious about how to raise money when Elisa came out of the ward and saw Lucia standing
dumbly in place, and immediately walked up and asked, "What's wrong? What did Dr.Long say?"
Lucia looked back at Elisa and said, "There's nothing wrong with the surgery, but the fee is a bit
high...mom, how much money do we have now?"
Elisa said seriously, "We have nearly half a million, is it not enough?"
Lucia bit her lips, hesitated for a moment, but still spoke, "The cost of this operation is about one and a
half million."
"What?"
Elisa was a little dumbfounded and asked again incredulously, "One and a half million?"
Lucia nodded somewhat demoralized because it was impossible for them to raise one million in such a
short time.
In fact, they had well arranged suitable doctor, surgery plan and schedule, but they actually afford the
operation.
Elisa was a bit flustered and asked repeatedly, "Then what to do? We can't delay anymore, for your
dad’s condition is not stable! "
Lucia clenched her fist and comforted her, "Mom, don't worry, I still have some deposit, and I will try my
best to raise money."
Hearing this, Elisa then sighed with relief and nodded, "Good, Lucia, thank you."
Lucia returned to the ward and saw Bill lying on the bed, who was looking pale and thin, almost burst
into tears and she was determined to find a way to get enough money for the surgery.
Lucia basically spent her weekend in the hospital and went back at night to change clothes, but the
next day she was almost late for work.
Nowadays, she couldn't lose her work, although her salary was far from one and a half million, she
should keep the money as much as possible.
There was still some time left before the surgery, she had to find a way to get more money, even taking
out a loan.
Arriving at the Administration Department, Lucia was about to go back to her office when she was
called by Lisa.
"Lucia, Carter wants you to go to her office."Lisa stood not far behind her and said with a gloating
smile.
Seeing Lisa's smile, Lucia was a bit surprised, thanked and walked toward the Supervisor's Office.
After pushing the door in, she saw Carter sitting at the table and lifted her chin at her, gesturing for her
to sit, "Sit."
Lucia sat down and asked, "Carter, what's the matter?"
Carter stopped the work and raised her eyes to her, but her gaze was quite serious, "Last Friday
afternoon, did you leave in advance?"
Lucia paused and truthfully answered, "Yes, my dad..."
Carter slapped the table, directly interrupted her words, and said in a cold voice, "Don't make any
excuses!"
Lucia trembled, but she should admit this matter, indeed, was her fault.
That day as soon as she received a call from Elisa, she rushed to the hospital without informing her.
"Don't be arrogant when you get a little credit, did you forget the rules of our company?"
Carter had always been serious about work and hated it when employees made the most basic
mistakes.
And this time, Lucia, obviously irritated her.
