Chapter 353 

Liana had just tucked her phone into her white lab cost when she spotted a dashing, stylishly dressed man striding towards the VIP ward. 

The moment he saw her, his 

yes lit up, a sunny smile spreading across his face. “Excuse me, doctor,” he said, is Ms. Shultz in this room?” 

Recognizing he was here for Eleanor, Liana stiffened, thinking to herself, “Has Ms. Shultz’s suitor already showed up?” 

a maintained a smile. Yes, she is. And you are?” 

card from his suit pocket and handed it to her. “My name is Pearce” 

Though taken aback, Liana 

He pulled out a 

Seeing the title “Chief Designer at Vanguard Architects‘ written on the card, Liana greeted him with a small smile. Nice to meet you” 

After shaking her hand and slipping the card into her hand, Pearce flashed her a grin. “If you ever need a house designed, give me a shout. I’ll give you a 20% discount.” 

With that, he swiftly turned and headed for the ward. But as he turned, his smile vanished in an instant…. 

Pearce paused at the door of the ward, his smile returning as he knocked on the door. “Ms. Shultz, may I come in?” 

Hailey, who was massaging Eleanor’s legs, looked up at the man outside the door. “And you are?” 

Leaning against the doorframe, Pearce ran his fingers through his hair. “Pearce.” 

Eleanor, remembering Ethan mentioning someone coming to tutor her in architecture, invited him in without turning around.

With a wave of his hand and a smile that seemed a bit forced, Pearce adjusted his expression before telling Eleanor, “Before I start teaching you, Ms. Shultz, I need to know a bit about your background.” 

Lying on her stomach, Eleanor didn’t notice his change in expression and simply nodded her consent. 

Having received her permission, Pearce began to ask about Eleanor’s background, “Where did you graduate from?” 

Surprised, Eleanor lowered her gaze, slightly ashamed. “A university in A City” 

Pearce raised on eyebrow. “The University of A?” 

When Eleanor shook her head, Pearce understood that it probably wasn’t a highly rated school. 

A hint of disdain appeared in his eyes, but he forced himself not to dwell on her academic background and quickly changed the subject. 

“What field of design did you study?” 

“Brand design” 

“Have you won any awards?” 

“Do competitions held by the school count?” 

Pearce didn’t know how to respond.
