The Billionaire's Canary

"Addison, have you seen Dr. North lately?"

In the hospital room, Mrs. Hayes expressed her confusion. "It's strange, he hasn't come to do his rounds for several days. He used to come every day."

Addison slowly spooned some soup and brought it to Mrs. Hayes's lips. "I don't know. I've been busy with work lately and haven't had much contact with him."

Mrs. Hayes asked probingly, "After you added each other on WeChat last time, there was no follow-up?"

"No." Addison smiled. "We weren't meant to be."

Mrs. Hayes sighed.

"It's okay. There are plenty of good men out there. Mother will keep an eye out for you."

"..."

Addison was afraid of her Mother on this topic, so she quickly found an excuse to leave.

After leaving the ward, Addison inquired around and learned that Dr. North had resigned.

The people discussing it were very surprised.

Dr. North had connections and a good background here. He himself was also in good standing. With steady progress, he would have had a bright future.

He suddenly left, and there was no possibility of him returning.

Everyone was speculating about the reason.

Addison bit her lip.

She privately messaged Ethan: Was Dr. North's departure your doing?

Ethan: Satisfied?

Just three words, superimposed on Ethan's arrogant face.

It made Addison's heart palpitate.

She thought for a moment before replying with two words: Thank you.

Ethan: I don't feel the sincerity.

Addison: ...

Taking advantage of the situation, huh?

Anyway, she had already repaid him, and they were even.

Addison put away her phone, feeling quite good, humming a tune as she left the hospital.

It was rush hour, and the traffic was heavy.

Addison looked at the tall buildings here, and remembering her plans for a few months from now, she couldn't help but feel stifled.

Housing was too expensive. With her meager salary, she would never be able to save enough, even if she saved her whole life.

She had to find another way.

Lost in thought, Addison suddenly saw a familiar figure.

She looked closely and realized that Bianca White was sitting in the cafe across the street.

Opposite her was a wealthy-looking woman.

Addison immediately recognized her as Mrs. Caldwell.

Because of the traffic jam, the cars weren't moving, so Addison could clearly see the expressions on their faces.

It seemed like they had reached some kind of agreement, and Bianca was smiling happily.

[Ding dong]

A sound from her phone pulled Addison's thoughts back.

Ethan: Ms. Hayes, I didn't have coffee this morning. Bring me a cup.

Addison: (ㅍ_ㅍ)

Was he really just wanting coffee?
