Chapter 92

Neil’s rescue operation was a tough one. It wasn’t until half past five that the doctors finally brought him out.

Maja looked at her father, who had an oxygen mask on his face, with a bitter feeling in her heart “Doc, is my father’s health really that bad?”

Neil had been busy with company matters for years, never bothering to get a health check–up. Whenever he felt pain, he’d just pop a painkiller and soldier on.

Maja remembered that her father had been like this since her mother was alive. Her mother always told him that as long as they had enough money, they could move to Crystalbrook Valley, get a nice house with a yard to plant flowers and vegetables, and live a comfortable life.

But when her mother first married her father, they were dirt poor. Neil felt guilty and refused the suggestion, always dreaming of making big bucks to give his wife a better life.

Maja had resented her father for not understanding what her mother truly wanted. By the time the company started making profits, her mother had already passed away. After a lifetime of hard work, they never got to enjoy the good life, and instead, Cristina reaped the benefits.

The doctor took off his mask and looked at her, “Are you a family member?”

“I’m his daughter.”

The doctor signaled for the others to wheel Neil into the ward, then pointed to his office, “It’s a bit complicated. Come to my office and let’s talk.”
