Chapter 332

Suri dared not to disturb Elvis. She knew all too well how much resentment he Held against her and this family.

Despite her genuine love and efforts for this family, and her sincere love for Emeric and his children, she was always viewed by his son as the interloper who disrupted his father’s monogamy. After her came Myra and Aviana.”

Would Emeric have had so many women if she hadn’t intervened?

The proverb “the early bird catches the worm” seemed to apply in a negative way here. Being the first to step forward brought about the most criticism and pressure, along with a heavy sense of guilt.

“I shouldn’t delay this matter. I’ll call Chasel right now.“,

For anything Evadne asked of her, Suri would always make it a priority to resolve. So, she grabbed her phone and made a call to her nephew.

After a few rings, a young and vibrant voice answered from the other end, surprisingly full of boyish charm. “Aunt Suri, I’ve missed you!”

“Chasel, have you been too busy lately to give your aunt a call? Have you been out partying and forgotten all about me?” Suri pretended to be annoyed.

“No way! I could never forget about you, Aunt Suri. Especially when you’re such a beauty.” Chasel responded with such sweet words.

Evadne raised her eyebrows in amusement.

The way Chasel spoke to Suri reminded her of the charming and mischievous hero from one of her favorite novels.

“Chasel, you’re not a young boy anymore. When you were younger, I could’ve complimented you on your charm, but now it’s starting to come off as a bit sleazy.” Suri laughed and teased him.

“Sleazy? I’m only twenty–seven! How could I be sleazy? Men only start being sleazy when they hit thirty.”

Chasel laughed and teased back, “If I remember correctly, all of my older cousins have reached the age of sleaziness, haven’t they? Aunt Suri, you’ve been around too many sleazy men. Maybe you should come visit me to get a breath of fresh air with a young, handsome and gallant man like me!”

Evadne had heard enough and was fuming. How could Chasel be so distasteful and annoying, like a fart in a crowded elevator?

“Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore.”

Suri cleared her throat, hesitated for a moment, and then said seriously, “Chasel, the real reason I called you is because I need a favor.”

“Just tell me what you need, Aunt Suri. No need to use the word ‘favor“.”

Suri paused for a moment before whispering, “Could you come back for a while? I have a patient here who suffered a severe blow to the head a few days ago and nearly lost his life. He’s stable now after a craniotomy, but he’s left with some serious after–effects. Chasel, you’re a talented neurosurgeon. Could you come back and take a look at him for me?”

“Who is this patient of yours?” Chasel asked.

Suri looked at the anxious Evadne and said, “I’ll introduce you when you get here.”

“Look, Aunt Suri, you know my rules. Before I see a patient, I need to know their identity and background. Otherwise, I won’t take the case.” Chasel refused to give in.
