Chapter 244

What else could it be?

When it concerned Medea, how could he not be in a hurry?

liza’s attention wasn’t focused on that. She consulted Grayson on a few more issues before leaving. By the time she left, it was already dark.

ecause she had an important meeting early the next morning, Eliza returned to the ward to inform Ottilie.

he also went to the nurse’s station to check in with the duty nurse and inquire about the specific times the remaining test results would be available, so she ould come to collect them.

it that moment, Medea and Calvin walked over.

tedea was speaking to Calvin, “Calv, my mother’s matter has caused you trouble.”

alvin’s tone was uncharacteristically gentle. “No trouble at all. Your matters are my matters. You should have told me earlier; Auntie wouldn’t have had to uffer.”

Medea felt a warmth in her heart and involuntarily linked her arm with Calvin’s. “I was afraid of disturbing your work, so I didn’t keep calling you.”

Don’t have so many reservations in the future. If something happens, just tell me directly.”

he VIP ward area was excessively quiet, so their conversation reached Eliza’s ears word for word.

he felt no emotional fluctuation inwardly. Instead, she carefully noted the times given by the–nurse in her memo.

he nurse kindly told her, “We help patients collect test results here. Ms. Grant, if you’re busy with work, you can come later. You don’t need to stick strictly to

he time.”

he nurse’s words drew the attention of the other two.

eeing it was Eliza, Medea’s gaze cooled as she looked away, but her body leaned even closer to Calvin beside her.

alvin also glanced at Eliza, but his eyes were indifferent.

he two soon left.

nother nurse returned from her rounds and complained to her colleague, “Weren’t there no vacancies? How did they still manage to get admitted?”

I heard it was arranged by President Young through someone.”

erhaps because Eliza was present, they didn’t elaborate, but it was clear they weren’t very happy.

nly then did Eliza realize.

alvin’s hurried departure earlier was to arrange a VIP room for Medea’s mother.

le was quite attentive to his future mother–in–law.

he next day, Eliza was swamped, attending several meetings.

he originally planned to go to the hospital after work to see Ottilie, but just before leaving, she received a call about a minor accident at the port construction

ite.

liza rushed over to handle it.

By the time it was resolved, it was already evening.

She was just about to head to the hospital when Oulie called her.

She told Eliza not to bother coming to the hospital and that all the test results were fine.

Hearing this, Eliza also breathed a sigh of relief. “Then 111 come see you after I finish my work.”

‘See what? I’m being discharged tomorrow. Just come home when you’re done.”

Okay.”

But for Eliza at this stage, there was simply no such thing as finishing work.”

she didn’t even have time to see Belle off at the airport when she flew to North City to handle her contract termination.

I wasn’t until Friday that she went to the hospital to pick up Grayson for dinner with the CEO of Forest.

nowing Eliza was coming to get him, Grayson was waiting at the hospital entrance early.

shortly after, Medea and Regina came out from inside.

The doctor said everything is fine, so I feel reassured now.”

Regina also seemed much more relaxed. “Thanks to Calv’s help. When your father returns, our family should get together for a meal.”

Okay, I’ll tell him.”

They were chatting when they spotted Grayson at the entrance.

Mother and daughter paused simultaneously.

Regina thought for a moment and decided to take the initiative to approach Grayson. “Mr. Young, are you also being discharged today?”

During these days in the hospital, she had been looking for opportunities to get close to Grayson.

But she never found the right moment.

aced with such a good opportunity now, how could she let it pass?

irayson was still in his wheelchair. After Regina finished speaking, he lifted his eyelids to glance at her.

Even though there was no particular emotion in his gaze, it inexplicably made Regina want to retreat.

Medea also played the part of the well–behaved one and called out, “Uncle Young.”

rayson didn’t look directly at her, his expression distant and indifferent.

ut Medea didn’t back down and continued on her own, “Calv will be here soon. Maybe he can take you back first?”

lancy looked at her with a cool gaze. “No need. Mr. Young has someone picking him up.”

s soon as she finished speaking, Eliza arrived.

he parked the car steadily in front of Grayson, then got out and walked towards him.

irayson stood up with Nancy’s support.

lis previously cold and distant expression softened considerably when he looked at Eliza.

Let me help.” Eliza supported Grayson as they walked towards the car.

Vancy quickly followed.

This left Medea and her mother standing where they were, their expressions slowly freezing

Medea was trembling with anger

Regina was equally angry, but she was slightly more composed than Medea.

“Caly will be here soon. Adjust your mood.”

Her gaze turned icy as she stared in the direction Eliza’s car had disappeared.

“She won’t be smug for long.”

With Grayson’s referral, Eliza’s discussion with President Holland of Forest went very smoothly.

President Holland was also very optimistic about ASKHEART and full of praise for Eliza.

He promised wholeheartedly that he would definitely get ASKHEART listed.

With President Holland’s assurance, Eliza felt much more settled.

she didn’t rest over the weekend either, staying at the company working overtime to prepare the materials Forest needed.

When she went to her appointment on Monday to submit the materials to President Holland, she found Calvin and Medea were also there.

President Holland, unaware that the three knew each other, smiled and introduced them to Eliza, “President Grant, come, let me introduce you. This is President Young from Everup, and this is President Wynn from Bosi Technology.”

Bosi Technology?

Oh, Eliza remembered.

It was the new name Calvin had given to the company he acquired for Medea, working on the high–temperature superconductivity project.

Lately, although she was busy, she had still been keeping up with industry trends.

Currently, the one making the biggest waves was this Bosi Technology.

Calvin had almost mobilized all of Everest’s resources to support and protect Bosi Technology.

he had wondered before why they acquired a shell company instead of registering a new one.

But at this moment, she understood.

Calvin was preparing for Bosi Technology to achieve a backdoor listing!

‘he advantage of a backdoor listing is that it bypasses the long IPO process, allowing a company to quickly obtain a listing qualification.

le was truly going to extreme lengths to pave the way for Medea.

We know each other.” Eliza’s simple statement directly skipped the handshake step.

of course, the other two probably didn’t want to shake hands with her either.

his was fine; everyone could coexist peacefully.

‘resident Holland explained to Calvin, “President Young, this is President Grant I mentioned. I already promised her I would take on her project. You’re a step

ate.”

Medea spoke unhurriedly, her tone composed and confident,

President Holland, you don’t need to give an answer immediately. As long as the contract isn’t signed, there’s room for discussion. The fact that you agreed to ee us shows you think highly of our project.”

resident Holland didn’t deny this. “Overall, the high–temperature superconductivity project is one with high potential and promising development prospects. It Covon Vears a Fool. One Day a Queen

But then he changed his tone and added, “However, I already promised President Grant…”

Calvin, who had remained silent until now, spoke up at the critical moment, President Grant, shall we tak?
