Goodbye, Saintess. Novel

Chapter 305 We chatted for a while before I brought up my father's condition . Elio said , " I read the report . Honestly , it's not critical , but it's not something we can treat lightly either . The good news is that it's one of the most common and well - studied heart conditions we know . I've treated it many times before . My advice is to get him into surgery as soon as possible. But the fees might be a little " " I can pay whatever you need , " I cut him off . " Just give him the best treatment and equipment available . Money isn't an issue at all . " Elio looked relieved .

" That's good to hear . We'll monitor your dad for the next two days , track his vitals , and if everything looks stable , we'll schedule the operation for the third day . " He smiled . " Nothing to worry about , yeah ? " Then , without warning , he asked , " So ... did you divorce your wife ? I froze . He must have been one of the few who had seen the video of her seducing Edmund at the bar . " Yeah , " I said flatly . " Perfect ! I can't let my bro stay with someone like that . " Elio grinned . " Now that you're single , you know what that means ?

You've got no excuse not to come to our gathering tonight . Natasha's coming as well . " His grin took on a sly edge . " You know she's still single ? Hard to believe , but true . You've got to take your shot ! " " What does that have to do with me ? " I drawled . " Well , for starters , I told Natasha about your divorce . Want to know her reaction ? Actually , never mind - you can probably guess . She was thrilled ! Couldn't wait to see you , man . " Elio's grin spread wider , wolfish now . " Bro , she's into you . " " You traitor !

You used my divorce as an icebreaker with the prettiest girl at school ! " I put on my best horrified face . " Unforgivable . I can't stand you another second . I'm going to check on my dad . " I stood , but Elio hurried to lead the way . " So, are you going or not ? ' ll pick you up after my shift . " " Yeah . I'm going . " Why not ? The second favorite thing to do when you returned to your hometown was to meet up with old friends . I didn't expect to find a stranger in my father's hospital room .

He carried bags of supplements and gifts , chatting with my parents as if they were old friends . " Who's this ? " I asked . " Oh , Ian ! This is Mr. Bankman , " my mother said with bright surprise . " He's the one who transferred 15,000 dollars to my account . He came to apologize ! Isn't that sweet ? " So this was the man behind that predatory loan company ? My expression hardened . He noticed and tried a friendly smile . " M. Grimwald , it is a pleasure to meet you . Could I have a moment ? " I led him into the corridor and shut the door . " Say what you came to say .

Are you trying to hold my parents hostage ? " His face turned pale . " No ! Never , sir ! I only wanted to apologize to our parents . I'm truly sorry about the loan . " but He rushed the words out , almost pleading . " My name is Sam Bankan . Our company was supposed to partner with yours , when this incident happened , your secretary canceled the contract mmediately . We were almost ruined ! That's why I came . I'll make it up to you however I can , until you're satisfied . " 1/2 Sara Lili Sara Lili is a daring romance writer who turns icy landscapes into scenes of fiery passion.
