Now alone, Alex answered the phone.

There was a brief silence before Candice’s voice came through. “Where are you?”

Alex scoffed, “What does it matter to you?”

She didn’t believe in coincidences and also had had a realization.

Dr. Sui wasn’t employed at Silverstone Hospital. It didn’t make sense for them to request her grandfather for the surgery program. After all, Silverstone Hospital was a recognized Dorrington hospital that could provide its own surgeons.

Candice suspected Alex’s involvement, especially since she had spoken to him earlier that day. and the surgery had already been confirmed by the evening.

“I told you I’d agree to anything if you helped me,” Candice said, her voice low and resigned.
