Chapter 90
There are only a few private clinics around here. If you need medical attention, you’ll have to head downtown. There’s only Hope Hospital within a two-kilometer radius, but that’s a nut house.”
A nuthouse?!
Allison’s face blanched a little and Daisy comforted her, “Don’t worry, that’s just one possibility, we’ll keep looking
“Alnght”
She could visit her mom once a week. Whether she was at Hope Hospital, she’d find out tomorrow
After saying bye to Daisy, Allison went home. While tidying up her room, she realized the necklace Daisy had given her was missing
She always kept it in her bag how could it vanish into thin air?
Allison turned her room upside down but still couldn’t find the agate necklace
Then, her phone rang
It was Dr. Dylan

“Allison, are you free tomorrow night? I need a favor”
“What’s up? Just spit it out, Dr. Dylan”
“I have an important dinner tomorrow night, and I was hoping you could be my plus one.”
“Uh…”
*Please, I’m begging you. My parents can’t make it at the last minute and I can’t find a date. You just have to tag along.”
“Alright After some consideration, Allison agreed. After all, Dr. Dylan had helped her out a lot and she was grateful.
“Great, I’ll pick you up tomorrow”
“Sure.”
After hanging up, Allison stood in front of her wardrobe. She didn’t have many fancy dresses. Her clothes were all simple and didn’t leave much room for choice.
In the end, she picked out a red dress with a shallow V-neck. It was handmade by her mom and she had worn it once for a school event.
7 PM the next night.
Starlight Hotel, a seven-star hotel under Lindberg Corporation.
Carter’s birthday bash was a grand affair. Fancy cars were parked at the hotel entrance and men and women in glitzy attire kept streaming in
The birthday banquet was organized by Cora and Zachary Lindberg. Cora had a good relationship with the Lindberg family even after marrying into the Brummett family.
If she were a man, she would’ve been the spitting image of Carter.
Lucian and Penelope were immediately surrounded by guests when they entered the banquet hall.
Penelope was dressed in a light pink fringed gown, her makeup delicate and beautiful. She obediently stayed by Lucian’s side.
They walked up to Carter, presented a gift a landscape painting that Christopher had put a lot of effort into acquiring at a high price “Grandpa, may you live a long and happy life”
