Chapter 384 384: Doctor Sherlyn agreed to take your mother’s case

Later that evening, Eveline visited Sherlyn's clinic just as she finished attending to a patient.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Come, have a seat," Sherlyn apologized politely, gesturing toward the chair.

"It's okay, Aunt Sherlyn. I know you're busy with your patients," Eveline replied, unfazed. She understood that Sherlyn wasn't an ordinary person.

Sherlyn smiled knowingly and looked at Eveline.

"You know, your words really got to your uncle. He was sulking on the phone after I declined him because of you," Sherlyn said with an amused smile.

"He shouldn't be. I already warned him that tonight was mine, and he should find something else to do in the meantime," Eveline replied with a nonchalant shrug.

"Still, I doubt he'll let us be, especially since I've been neglecting him for a while," Sherlyn added matter-of-factly.

Eveline glanced around for a few seconds before Sherlyn's voice drew her attention back.

"So, what brings you here?" Sherlyn asked, seizing Eveline's focus.

"Ah, actually, I wanted to ask about a patient name Valeria Lee."

Sherlyn furrowed her brows in confusion, but after a moment, she recalled discussing Valeria's case with Kaden. Suddenly, everything started to make sense.

"What do you want to know about her?" she asked skeptically, studying Eveline's expression.

"Everything. But first, I want to know what she looks like," Eveline specified, making her primary interest clear before diving into the details.

Sherlyn had no idea why Eveline was so curious about Valeria, but knowing her well enough by now, she understood that Eveline wasn't someone who got intrigued by people without reason.

Turning to her drawer, Sherlyn pulled out Valeria's file and handed it to Eveline.

Eveline quickly flipped it open, and the moment her eyes landed on the photo inside, her suspicions were confirmed.
