My Child and I Married a Billionaire novel Chapter 65

Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Pah! How Is She Worthy

The same resolute, cold expression he wore when he sent her away yesterday.

Damien Vaughn’s face was grim. Without sparing Claire Clark a single glance, he walked straight past her.

"Damien! Damien?"

Watching him ignore her completely and walk further away, Claire Clark grew pale with anger.

The young nurses, however, were staring at her in surprise.

"Dr. Clark, you know him? Why is he ignoring you? Do you think he didn’t hear? Who is that? You know such a handsome man, Dr. Clark. You’re amazing!"

’Amazing?’ Claire Clark was fuming.

’What in the world happened to make him so cold toward me?’

’Back in the day, he used to spoil me rotten!’

Just as she was seething, the nurses’ gazes shifted. They spotted the director leading a group of people over and quickly straightened up to greet them.

"Good day, Director Hill. Good day, everyone."

Claire Clark quickly turned and called out to Director Hill as well. At the same time, she was pleasantly surprised to spot her former university professor, Mr. Kane, in the group.

Mr. Kane, now in his early forties, was already a renowned oncologist in the country.

Extremely handsome and talented in his youth, he had been very popular at the medical school.

Claire Clark had been infatuated with him back then, but unfortunately, Mr. Kane had been indifferent to her, reserving his special attention exclusively for Cecelia Archer.

He even publicly expressed his regret when Cecelia Archer faced expulsion due to scandals about being pregnant and stealing.

’He isn’t on staff at Central Hospital. What’s he doing here?’

"Mr. Kane, long time no see! What brings you here today?"

Mr. Kane didn’t recognize Claire at first, but he still answered politely.

"I’m here for a meeting. And you are?"

"I’m Claire Clark! I was your student, from the same class as Raymond King and Cecelia Archer. Don’t you remember?"

’Cecelia Archer?’

Mr. Kane remembered then. There had been someone named Claire Clark who was always trailing after Cecelia Archer back in the day.

"Oh, it’s you. Long time no see. I didn’t recognize you for a moment. You work here now?"

Claire knew that in this profession, the more influential people you knew, the more respect you commanded, so she did her best to engage her former professor in conversation.

"Yes, I just returned from abroad not long ago. Thanks to Director Hill, my position is already permanent. It’s so good to see you, Mr. Kane. Our old classmates miss you a lot. Just the other day, they were talking about organizing a group visit."

Although Mr. Kane was over forty, he had maintained his physique and appearance well. He had the refined, elegant air of a scholar, reminiscent of one of those actors who always plays the domineering CEO.

Claire was proud to have such a professor, but unfortunately, Mr. Kane’s reaction was lukewarm.

"I’ve been very busy lately and can’t spare the time. Please tell our classmates for me that I appreciate the thought."

"It’s about time. You should get back to your duties. I have to go."

With that, the group continued on their way. ’I finally get to see him again after so long; how can I not get his contact info?’ Claire thought, taking two steps to catch up.

"Everyone is very fond of your wife, too. If you’re too busy, we could visit her instead. Mr. Kane, you’re here today to..."

Director Hill answered on Mr. Kane’s behalf.

"There’s a leukemia patient whose treatment plan needs to be developed. Your Mr. Kane really doesn’t have the time. Alright now, all of you get back to work. The best way to repay your teacher is to give your all to your own jobs."

With that, the group of specialists headed toward the conference room on that floor.
