Trick Him Into Divorce, Then Flee With His Unknow Kid novel Chapter 144

Chapter 144: Chapter 144 Leo’s backing Rose

Samantha was taken aback at first.

But she quickly realized that she frequently appeared on medical programs and gave interviews. Influential figures in the medical field naturally followed that kind of content.

It made sense that Leo had seen her before.

He might even admire her.

Her heart swelled with excitement as she realized she was one step closer to her goal.

"It’s an honor to have made an impression on you. As a medical student, I’ve always hoped to receive guidance from a mentor like you."

Leo, however, smiled for no apparent reason.

"Mike is your younger brother, isn’t he? I heard he caused quite a scene at my clinic last month and smashed quite a few valuable items."

Samantha’s flawless smile froze.

For a moment, she couldn’t react.

She had completely forgotten about that incident.

Since it hadn’t resulted in any serious consequences or caused her any real losses, she had naturally put it out of her mind.

Now that it was being brought up again, her heart skipped a beat.

Ryan, however, remained composed. Turning to Leo, he said, "The Hill family has been a bit too indulgent with him. I hope you won’t hold it against us, Dean Byrne. By the way, how is the new batch of medical equipment New Hope provided working out?"

Rose instantly remembered.

Back then, when Samantha and that graduate student from Columbia University had "accidentally" administered the wrong medication to Mike—an incident that had nearly caused G.S. to take the blame—Ryan had resolved the matter by donating state-of-the-art medical equipment worth over one hundred million dollars to Peace Hospital.

Only then had Peace’s senior management agreed not to pursue the damage Samantha had nearly caused to the hospital’s reputation.

Leo remembered as well. The refined smile on his face remained unchanged.

"Everyone knows that New Hope, under Mr. Knight’s leadership, is a leader in the medical equipment industry. Its products are exported to many developed countries, so the equipment has naturally provided a better experience for our patients."

As he spoke, he adjusted his glasses and looked at Samantha.

"Now that Mr. Knight mentions it, I do remember that the trouble Ms. Hill caused back then was no small matter. Young people really do need to keep their feet on the ground."

Samantha felt her cheeks burn.

Even though Leo hadn’t said anything particularly harsh.

Still, a chill ran down her spine.

After all, having the scandal that had nearly landed her in jail brought up in public was hardly pleasant.

She told herself that Leo probably wasn’t mocking her intentionally. Given his status, he had never interacted with her before—why would he have any personal opinion of her? He was likely just offering advice as a senior physician who valued young talent.

If it weren’t for Rose and her documentary project, she wouldn’t have gone through that ordeal in the first place.

Samantha pressed her lips together and glanced at Rose.

Though resentment simmered inside her, she didn’t show it.

Composing herself, she said, "Thank you for your advice. That’s actually one of the reasons I came today—to offer my sincere apologies."

Her attitude appeared completely sincere.

Leo had spent most of his life around people and could tell at a glance who was worth investing his time in.

As though he hadn’t heard her at all, he turned directly to Rose.

"After the summit, why don’t you come over for dinner?"

Samantha froze, feeling awkward.

She hadn’t expected Leo to ignore her completely.

Instead, he was inviting Rose to his home.
