Chapter 803 A Pounding Heart
“I know. I'll be fine. Don't worry about me,” said Georgina. The truth was, she had expected that outcome.
It was not like she had to have him and only him.
After all, she was just unconsciously attracted to him.
The women continued chatting for a while until Sophie received a call from Barney telling her to return. Hence, they went back together.
Upon arriving at the entrance, Georgina halted in her tracks.
“Sophie, I'm feeling a little unwell. I won't be going in today.” Deep down, Georgina felt upset despite saying she was fine. At that moment, she needed to go home, get some rest, and sort out her feelings instead of going back to work.
Sophie understood what Georgina was feeling, and she nodded her head.
“All right. Go home and get some rest. Don't think too much, okay?”
“Okay.”
With that, Georgina left, looking rather dejected.
Seeing Sophie returning alone, Arius asked with a frown, “Where's Georgina? Don't tell me she couldn't handle it?”
Sophie rolled her eyes at him.
“That's enough. Stay away from her in the future if you don't like her.” Georgina's a decent girl. I will not let her be afraid to fall in love because of him.
“Okay. I get it. I'll stay away from her in the future,” promised Arius.
He never wanted to hurt Georgina. However, he just did not want to get into a relationship at that moment.
“Let's go. Isn't Dr. Smith looking for us?” said Sophie while taking the lead.
Although Arius was not attracted to Georgina, he still felt bad for making her upset.
Looks like I've got to find a time to apologize to her.
Soon, they arrived at Barney's office. He took out a document that had the International Medical Association's seal.
“Why are you still keeping in touch with them, Dr.Smith? They're absolutely heartless people.
” Arius had seen through the people of the International Medical Association.
“Arius, the field of medicine has no national borders. They need our help with a new and complicated disease.” Barney recalled his experiences at Anglandur when he read through the document earlier.
No matter what the circumstances were or which countries were involved, there would always be evil people. However, the ones that were affected the most were always the innocent citizens.
If they ignored the request for help, more innocents would die.
Sophie had no issue with the arrangement.
She accepted the folder from Barney and read the documents before nodding. “It's quite complicated.”
As society was rapidly developing, so were viruses. To make matters worse, some viruses were hard to deal with once they mutated.
“Don't tell me you want to go back, Dr. Smith? It was hard enough for you to get out last time. If you go back again, there's no guarantee what will happen to you.” Indeed, there were no national borders in the field of medicine, and the sick were truly pitiful.
Even so, one needed to put their well-being first.
No matter how much they cared for others, it would be a huge loss if they suffered instead.
“What do you think we should do, then? Are you saying we should just sit idly by?” Barney cast Arius a look of disagreement.
Arius was dumbfounded.
Fine. Just pretend I never said anything. I have no right to make decisions, anyway. These two can make the decision while I'll just carry out my duties.
“What do you think, Sophie?” Barney had already made up his mind. If the other two refused to go, he would go alone.
No matter what the outcome was, he would bear the consequences.
After all, the ordinary patients were innocent. As a doctor, he could not sit by and watch them die.
“I'll go with you, Dr. Smith.” Sophie nodded.
She would not let Barney go to Anglandur alone. Besides, she could use the opportunity to bring Butterfly back.
Arius could not help but roll his eyes.
Hmph. I feel like I'm just a superfluous existence.
“Forget it. I'll go with you two. Ugh. What am I going to do about you two?” Arius was at a loss for words.
Dr. Smith is a great person. The only problem is that he's too selfless.
Hearing that, Barney nodded.
“Who's going to take care of this place if all three of us go?” asked Arius. They had many ongoing researches here.
There would be no one to manage the place if all three of them went to Anglandur.
“We have Georgina! She's not bad. Although she's young and lacks experience, she's not bad,” said Barney. After spending time with her, he genuinely felt that Georgina was a great candidate.
“Yep. All right, then.” Sophie, too, agreed that Georgina was a good solution to the problem.
However, their words elicited a frown from Arius.
“Can she handle it? She's just a young lady. Can she manage so many people?” The people from the Chanaean Medical Association are not the easiest to handle.
Sophie answered with confidence, “She can. That reminds me. Dr. Smith, I discovered two talents. I'd like to let them try working here.”
“Really? If that's the case, bring them over, then.”
Upon receiving Sophie's call, Simon and Sandra came rushing over. They had not seen Sophie since the start of the holidays.
When they found out that Sophie wanted to meet them, they practically rushed over without having second thoughts.
The moment they found out where Sophie was planning to meet them, the duo was confounded.
“Simon, are we at the wrong place? This is the Chanaean Medical Association.” Sandra was befuddled.
Immediately, Simon took out his phone and checked their location. Shaking his head, he said, “We're at the right place.” His heart was racing wildly, for he had always known that Sophie was an incredible person. She must be a member of the Chanaean Medical Association now! It makes sense. How could a talented person like Sophie not be?
“Come on. Let's go in and have a look. We'll find our answer once we go in there,” Simon prompted, leading Sophie into the building.
When the guard realized they were invited over by Sophie, he immediately brought the duo to her.
It was a first for Simon and Sandra to visit such a place.
As soon as they stepped into the building, they were greeted by the sight of people in white laboratory coats conducting experiments. The scene left the duo dumbfounded.
Never in their wildest dreams did they imagine themselves stepping into the medical association.
Meanwhile, Sophie was already waiting for them.
“Didn't you guys say you always wanted to visit the Chanaean Medical Association? Well, this is it! I noticed you two have been doing quite well recently, so here's the deal. Come and try working here. Let's see if you can adjust to the tough working environment.”
Sandra was shocked beyond words.
Am I hearing things? Sophie's speaking in Chanaean, yet why am I not understanding what she's saying?
“Really?”
Simon was the first to snap back to reality. Ever since his family's hospital got into trouble, he realized everyone needed to have their own abilities. That was why he had been working so hard recently.
