My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) -
Chapter 1511
It wasn't just a single family that would be destroyed. It was far more than that.
A person diagnosed with cancer would bring harm to several generations of people.
Rita was an example. When Sonia died, her parents had struggled with their granddaughter's treatment until they practically aged a few decades overnight. They already had a hard life, and it became worse after they lost their daughter. The remaining half of their lives were all spent recalling the past.
Hendrix was silent for a while and he replied, "I will investigate the Saunders family's chemical plant. Richard of Ucrebury should have a solution for Chloe. Richard is an expert in bone cancer and Chloe is his niece. He will know what to do. Don't worry too much."
I pursed my lips, "But Chloe doesn't want to go back to Ucrebury. She had rented out the house in Jarold City that Josiah gave her. She is living in an old place in the city instead. I ran into her at a bar yesterday. She seemed to be prostituting herself for money. I didn't know how to persuade her, so I left my bank card with her."
Hendrix answered, "You don't have to worry about these things. Everyone can make their own choices and decisions. You can't change anything even if you care, because it's outside of your control." "Alright." I pouted. "Come back soon. By the way, Sawyer is planning to get married. My mother is planning his engagement party these days. You have to come back quickly, so we can go together." There was a faint laugh over the phone. "Well, I'll come back as soon as possible. Please stay at the Moore Villa tonight. Don't stay outside. It's not safe!"
"Okay, okay, I got it!" I muttered, "Hendrix, you nag so much now."
Freya glanced at me and whispered, "Hey, we're here to shop, not to listen to your PDA. Stop showing off."
"Yes, I suspect that you are deliberately provoking me," added Shirley.
I chuckled and said goodbye to Hendrix on the phone. After hanging up, I looked at Freya and said, "Let's go to the salon first."
When women reached a certain age, retail therapy became a kind of emotional outlet.
This statement was profound in Freya and Shirley.
Both of them had found two good-looking hairdressers and proceeded to chat with them. They could not resist the temptation of two handsome men, so both of them ended up buying a 100,000 dollars service card each.
I was speechless, watching everything unfold. Freya chattered cheerfully, "I came out to spend money for my happiness. That handsome guy was gorgeous and so good at holding a conversation. This 100,000 dollars is worth it."
"Yes, it's been a long time since I felt entertained by a guy. Not only did the 100,000 dollars make me look charming, it also made my day. It is even more relaxing than when I drink, so it's worth it," Shirley said in agreement.
In this way, it seemed that the money they spent was really worth it.
After the hairdressing, we went to a beauty salon and enjoyed a spa and sauna. It was already afternoon when we were done.
I had just finished my treatment when Chloe called me. She said curtly to me over the phone, "I don't need the bank card. I will take the cash you left. It's the payment for me taking you in last night and the compensation for affecting my business. You can keep the bank card."
I sat down and was quiet for a moment. "You can refuse the bank card, but I want to let you know that if you don't want to accept it, you should go back to Ucrebury. Your uncle is a bone cancer expert. He must have a solution. If you insist on staying in Jarold City, you will only lose your life. If you don't want to go to Ucrebury, keep that card and consider it my reward to you, for bringing Anne's condition to my attention."
