Chapter 418

Dr. Andrews set a strict deadline.

Chapter 418

Gratefully, I began, “Dr. Andrews, thank you so much for looking after my grandma during this period. We really appreciate it!”

“No need to thank me.”

Dr. Andrews pointed to Bryant, saying, “Thank him. This guy has been pestering me for nearly two months. I hadn’t planned on coming back to the States anytime soon, but my wife finally gave in to his persistence and convinced me to come take a look.”

Hearing this, I looked at Bryant in surprise.

Two months.

That meant even before I had returned to RiverCity, when he might have thought I was as good as dead, he never gave up on my grandma’s condition.

I said, “Bryant, for this… I really owe you one.”

“Want to really thank me? How about treating me to dinner?”

“Huh?”

I was taken aback, not expecting such a request from him.

Then, turning to Dr. Andrews, I smiled warmly, “Sure, a dinner for you and Dr. Andrews it is, to try some of Vista Town’s local dishes.”

Gregory had taken me to a private restaurant two years ago, and the food was

excellent.

But then, Dr. Andrews waved it off, “No, no, I’ve got old friends to catch up with now that I’m back in town! I have plans tonight.”

He tapped his assistant, chuckling, “He’s coming with me. Ms. Webster, you treat Mr. Ferguson alone. After all, he’s the real hero here. I’m just doing my job.”

After laying out the plans for taking over Ramona’s treatment tomorrow, Dr. Andrews left with his assistant.
