Chapter 260

Evander stared straight ahead, his expression dark as a brewing storm. After listening in silence, he finally turned to Natalie. “Have someone keep an eye on her. Don’t let her get anywhere near Charlotte.”

Meanwhile, Charlotte-who’d been invited to perform a cerebral arteriovenous malformation surgery at the neighboring General Hospital-was just stepping out of the operating room.

Dean Stone of General Hospital was an old classmate of Dean Chase. When Stone had visited the capital on a business trip, Dean Chase had recommended Charlotte to him.

“Director Sterling, thank you for coming all the way from District General. I know it’s a hassle,” Stone said as he walked her to the door.

“Not at all. Dean Chase has always been good to me. I’m happy to help, Charlotte replied with a polite smile.

As they reached the entrance, Dean Stone added, “If you ever need anything, Director Sterling, our hospital will do everything we can for you.”

In this line of work, building your own network was everything.

Charlotte agreed readily, “Thank you, I appreciate it.”
