Rebirth Into My Second Chance

Chapter 290

Returning to Crestview Metropolis somehow made everything feel a bit more genuine.

It took me about two weeks to shake off the surreal haze and return to my regular life.

Richard was still in bad shape, confined to the ICU. Max had shown me some pictures, but I hadn't visited him. Seeing him like that would only deepen the sadness. All I could do was leave it up to fate to decide if he'd pull through.

Back at Evergreen Health Center, Helen informed me that a few doctors with PhDs were interested in joining our team, but their current hospitals weren't keen on them working part-time elsewhere. Some of these doctors were from renowned institutions outside the state, and we wanted to recruit them to offer more services to our patients. We'd scheduled their consultations to avoid conflict with their hospital hours.

"Your old mentor, Allen Ramsey, has been working at a top hospital out of state," Helen mentioned. "He wanted to join us too, but his hospital wouldn't allow it. Their head, Dr. Pearce, even requested a meeting with you to discuss it. If you two are on the same page, he might let Allen come aboard."

I nodded, acknowledging her report. "Arrange the meeting. I haven't seen Allen in ages."
