My Billionaire Boyfriend

Chapter 152



Chase’s palm was warm.

However, Bella’s tears were even warmer Chase felt as though the palm covering Bella’s eyes was scalded.

Hot tears oozed from the cracks between his fingers.

Bella was crying.

She said in a doleful voice, “Chase, I trust you.”

Chase could feel her shoulders trembling as she continued, “But, since you covered my eyes, why not cover my ears and my heart as well?

She sniffled. “I can still hear them crying She bowled with a quivering voice, “I can still feel their grief.”

All of a sudden, an vulnerable and helpless voice resounded.

It was Elder Li.

He was choked with sobs as his tears welled up in his eyes.

“I beg of you, Helping Hands Medical Center.

We have been working very hard.”

He put his hands together and rubbed them.

“We’re trying our best to be self-dependent, and we’re trying our best not to trouble our kids who are striving outside…”

He lowered his head as he squeaked, “We really have no other options…

His words brought tears to the eyes of every conscientious individual at the scene.

These were the thoughts of so many lonely elders.

They were alone but they were never concerned about it.

Instead, they would think of their children, whether their children were suffering abroad…

They were weak, but their hearts were stronger than anyone else’s.

“Helping Hands Medical Center, can you stond to watch these elders kneel without doing or feeling anything?”

This scene was captioned and posted on the Internet once again.

But the Helping Hands Medical Center remained hard hearted, refusing to comment on the situation.

The whole scene had been stuck in a stalemate for more than two hours.

Throughout that entire duration, Bella was crying..

In the end, the farmers compromised.

They gave the Heption Herbs as a pledge to the Helping Hands Medical Center at a low price.

Although it was said to be collateral, in reality, everyone knew that the herbs were going on a one-way trip. They were never going to get paid decently.

After they had reached an agreement, the farmers left one after another.

Their bodies trembled slightly, evoking empathy in the people who saw them.

Elder Li was the last to leave.

He saw Bella in the crowd. He slowly walked before her and forced out a forlorn smile.

In the eyes of the witnesses at the scene, these farmers’ dignity was already shattered beyond repair.

“Director Song, you’re here too, Elder Li said as he choked with sobs.

His words filled Bella with guilt. Out of the thousand words to choose frem, she could only manage, “I’m sorry, I have disappointed you…”

Elder Li waved his hand and said with a bitter smile, “It has nothing to do with you.

This is simply a stroke of bad luck that happened to fall upon Heption Village. We’ll have to think about some other business in the future.”

After that, he walked away.

However, when he was about to leave, he turned around abruptly and handed the ragged sack to Bella. He said with a smile, These are some sweet potatoes planted by our family. I brought it here for my son, but he said that he was busy with work and didn’t have time to come. You can have it instead.”

Bella held back her tears; she dared not accept the gift in front of her.

This was because she felt guilty.

Elder Li forced a smile and shoved it to Chase, who was standing next to her. What he said next struck Chase and Bella so hard emotionally that they were at a loss for words.

“Don’t worry, this shouldn’t be poisonous We’ve been eating it for our whole lives…”

After that, he slowly marched away.

Chase’s eyes turned red at his words.

“Elder L, I’m sorry that you have to suffer for another three days…” he whispered inward “What you have lost, I will repay you a hundred times over!”

Money!

Dignity!

As well as the bliss Elder Li was supposed to enjoy in his golden years!

The Helping Hands Medical Center had completed its acquisition, under the condemnation of thousands.

Many restless pharmaceutical companies had already sold their herbs to the Helping Hands Medical Center.

Even the Song family and Ethan have unloaded their herbs to the Helping Hands Medical Center.

For a moment, there was not a single stalk of Heption Herb left on the market.

The Helping Hands Medical Center had already spent over a hundred million yuan on the acquisition.

Everyone was berating the Helping Hands Medical Center.

The Zhao family, on the other hand, was elated.

When they decided to save the patients, it was just an uncharted step. After all, no one could predict how the public would react.

However, it was fortunate that the Helping Hands Medical Center decided to act on the contrary, which helped to raise the Zhao family on a pedestal.From NôvelDrama.Org.

In no time at all, the prestige of the Zhao family reached the pinnacle, and their fame was incomparable.

Daniel almost laughed his head off.

“The Helping Hands Medical Center is so idiotic! Not only did they bring us up, but they’ve also lost more than a hundred million yuan and taken on the fury of the city in the process, Daniel thought in glee.

He could not believe that they’d dare to do something so detrimental to themselves.

“I really salute them!” Daniel exclaimed inwardly.

The Helping Hands Medical Center, however was as calm as the eye of the storm, despite the chaos brewing around them.

Melissa’s lips curled into a smile when she saw how Lincon haughtily castigated the Helping Hands Medical Center and the Song family on the TV.

Hmph, did he really think they were stupid?

Did Lincon really think that it was a coincidence that they released the notice on this very day? How foolish the Zhao family would think that the Helping Hands Medical Center was helping them?

Hmph

They must have forgotten how they had once flattered the Song family!

“That little b*stard is going to give him a taste of his own medicine!” Melissa thought bitterly.

The Zhao family thought it was just a mere coincidence, but really, it was all part of Chase’s plan.

There were still two days before the test results of the Heption Herb came out.

The Song family and the Helping Hands Medical Center both received a notice from the Golden City Pharmaceutical Association.

Both parties were informed that it was compulsory for them to attend the press conference in two days time.

Everyone knew that the notice heralded the life-and-death judgement that would come to pass with the release of the test results.

Two more days, then the Song family and the Helping Hands Medical Center would cease to exist.

The Zhao family would rise powerfully in their absence.

When the Helping Hands Medical Center received the notice, they did yet another despicable thing much to the surprise of everyone in Golden City!

They announced that patients would be treated free of charge for two days!

Besides, they were going to be treated by the famous doctor, Henry personally!

Henry was very well-known throughout the country.

Usually, when he treated patients, the consultation fee would easily surpass ten thousand yuan.

Yet now, it would be free of charge.

This would have been a great piece of news under normal circumstances.

Unfortunately, since it was the Helping Hands Medical Center who conducted it, it felt as though the deed wa masked by the stench of corruption!

While the treatment was indeed free, the targeted group was only for the high-ranking officials and nobles in the city!

If they wanted the free consultation, they had to get a proof of transaction from the bank of at least ten million yuan!

This prerequisite riled up the public even further as they once again directed their anger at the Helping Hands Medical Center!

The Helping Hands Medical Center had just exploited the poor farmers from Heption Village.

Now, they wanted to trample on the weak and to flatter the rich!

Such pretentiousness and apathy! Hypocrite!

The storm surrounding the scandal crashed down on the Helping Hands Medical Center like a tsunami!

Seeing the fleet of luxurious and fancy carst in front of the clinic, the public roared their rage at the clinic.

Lincon, sitting at home, laughed sinisterly.

“The Helping Hands Medical Center must be run by fools. I can already guess why they did that.”

Hmph, they only wanted to cling onto the wealthy and affluent, then use whatever connections they gained in these two days to save the clinic!

It was such a pity that they did not know that they were shooting themselves in the foot!

Did they think that this would not enrage the public?

“Hmph, you really have a death wish!” He muttered.

In no time at all, the whole city was berating the Helping Hands Medical Center.

Bella, resting at home, looked at Chase, who seemed detached, and wanted to comfort him.

After all, he was an employee of the Helping Hands Medical Center.

She said, “Chase, shouldn’t you talk to your superiors? Don’t let them ruin their reputation and end up like…”

She stopped abruptly.

All of a sudden, it finally occurred to her. She was so perturbed that she shivered all over

She was about to finish her sentence off with ‘me’.

However, only at this moment did it occur to her that in the past two days, all the public’s

focus was on the Helping Hands Medical Center!

No one mentioned anything about her!

She would have been notorious for breaking her promise!

When she turned to Chase for help, everything turned away. Only Chase sided with her!

The world had been turned upside down!

It was as if an unseen hand silently shifted all the public’s focus and attacks to the Helping Hands Medical Center!

To change the source of the calamity!

Just so that she could be peaceful for the rest of her life!

It was Chase’s doing!
