After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities novel Chapter 22

Tammy made a mistake, but Sylvia was beaten up and asked to kneel in the snow for nearly half of a night. That was not the way a loving father should behave.

Thinking of this, Sylvia sneered.

It was too late to pretend to be a loving father!

"Dad, just cut to the chase," Sylvia said in an impatient tone. She was really busy, so she didn't have time to waste.

Otto rubbed his hands and looked at Kira, but Kira had her head down and avoided looking at him.

Otto was a little angry.

Kira had promised to help him, but she was silent now. Otto was unwilling to say it himself.

He glared at Skyla.

Skyla felt wronged. She was anxious as well, but she couldn't do anything. She nearly wanted to kill Kira!

Seeing this, Sylvia said nonchalantly, "If you don't say anything, then I'll leave. I don't find anything serious with Grandma's body."

"Wait, hang on!" Otto hurriedly stood up and stopped Sylvia. He said in an ingratiating tone, "Sibbie, you know my company has recently been in trouble. Typically, we have to advance wages to workers in the early stages of a project. And the owners often have a few arrears on the payment at the end."

"Get to the point." Sylvia got even more impatient.

"More recently, I undertook a project of decorating Wilson Group's new hotel. The Wilson family is very powerful, so it took me a lot to win the bid. Unfortunately, a worker fell off the scaffolding when working. Wilson Group now wants to terminate its cooperation with me, and even asks me to pay double damages for breach of contract. What is worse, the worker's family are unreasonable. They make a scene every day at the gate of the company."

Otto begged, "Sibbie, I know you are a renowned doctor. It's said that the old Wilson is seriously ill, so can you go and see him? If you cure the old Wilson, Mr. Wilson may not terminate the cooperation."

Sylvia finally figured out the whole story. However, characteristically, Otto might hide something from her.

Otto didn't say a word about the worker.

Sylvia had a hunch that things were not quite that simple. "How is the worker now? Does he have minor injuries or major ones?"

"He is in the ICU now! It's very costly. I've spent 100 thousand on this." Otto was irritated when talking about this. If the worker hadn't been so clumsy, he would not have had such a problem.

Sylvia raised her eyebrows, with a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes.

100 thousand could keep the worker in ICU for only a week.

"How long has this been going on?"

"It's been a week." Otto cautiously looked at Sylvia, who was very obedient at her young age but disobedient now. However, considering Sylvia's status, Otto couldn't force her to do anything.

If it weren't for an excuse that Kira didn't feel well, Sylvia wouldn't have come. She thought nothing of what Otto said now.

He was very angry at Sylvia, but he didn't dare to throw a tantrum.

Sylvia narrowed her eyes, chuckling. "It took a week to tell me."

"It's because your father didn't want to bother you. We asked many people for help but in vain. Your father does not dare to call you until your grandma is ill," Skyla added in a sarcastic tone.

She thought, 'Sylvia, how dare you! Tammy also works at Lilypad General Hospital, but she can only work as a general surgeon.

By contrast, you are popular with so many top wealthy people. How aggravating!

It's said that you perform only one surgery each month!
