However, thinking back, her first patient after getting out of prison was Tilda. Moreover, the consultation fee Marlon had given her was generous, and he had introduced many patients to her. He counted as one of the few benefactors she had met since her release.
“Alright.” Leilani nodded in agreement. “When do we start? Where will the treatment be?”
“Brass City.”
Seeing Leilani agree, Marlon breathed a sigh of relief, but then looked a bit troubled. “However... the schedule is tight. I might need you to head there with me tomorrow.”
“So soon?”
“Illness waits for no one.” Marlon smiled bitterly, knowing the timeline was rushed. “His condition has worsened again in the last two days. The family is very anxious.”
Leilani thought about her schedule. Aside from Yvonne's regular follow-ups and Hale's skin treatment, she didn't have other urgent arrangements recently. Since she had already agreed, she would keep her promise.
“Okay, I'll pack a few things later. We leave tomorrow.”
Clothing wasn't the issue; the main thing was her treatment tools. Seeing how nervous Marlon was, Leilani decided she would stop by Pure-Spring Clinic tomorrow morning before leaving to pick up her newly custom-made needles and some rare medicinal ingredients.
Marlon showed a grateful smile. He hadn't misjudged her. Since she agreed, he could report back successfully.
“Thank you so much. Dr. Cheney, rest assured, we have arranged a private jet for tomorrow, so the journey won't be too exhausting for you.”
Hale rambled on, his messages so frequent that Leilani couldn't help but frown. Since she had already told him in advance, she ignored the long string of messages and replied with just one sentence: [I will notify you before the next treatment.]
Then she couldn't be bothered with him and swiped the chat away.
Yvonne also replied quickly: [Leilani, why are you suddenly going to Brass City? I haven't hung out with you enough these past few days. And why are you going for a whole week...]
[Leilani, remember to contact me the moment you get back! I'll miss you.]
Compared to Hale, Yvonne's reluctance to part was overflowing from the screen. Ever since she regained her memories of Leilani, their bond had grown stronger. Seeing that Leilani was going on a business trip for a week and couldn't continue helping with her rehabilitation, she was naturally sad.
