Chapter 3056
John's expression darkened at the mention of the surgery.
He stilled for a moment. Then, he took out the piece of paper Tara had given him and said, "President Moore didn't try to help me out at all. All she did was offer me a chance to compete fairly against the other competitors."
He sighed and added, "She told me that the person in charge of making the decision wasn't from Scarnfield City and guaranteed that it would be a fair bid. As long as I can present the company and showcase my sincerity, she thinks I might stand a good chance. Of course, I'm not too sure about it."
He sighed once again and stared at the woman before him." Robyn, I'm afraid that I need to spend more time and effort on the company, and you..."
"Don't worry!" Robyn grinned. "I'll help you take care of Anne and Sammie! Hey, I'm not as useless as you think. I graduated from nursing school, after all, so don't you worry!"
With that, she sighed. "Please do the best you can with what you have, John. I know you can do it, and I believe in you. I know you'll do your best and be able to get the money for Anne's surgery."
John smiled bitterly. "Not even I believe in myself as much as you do..."
Sometimes, he would question himself about his decision to take Anne and Sammie away from Banyan City, their home, and go into hiding by faking Anne's death.
His original plan was to hide where no one knew who they were and cut off all ties with their friends and family from Banyan City. After all, John himself was a convicted murderer, Anne had too many ties to people that he would rather not be involved with, and Sammie was not even a year old.
Going into hiding was indeed the best option they had.
However, John never imagined that although Anne had survived her attack, they would be subjected to hefty medical bills that were the result of the numerous surgeries Anne had to undergo to reverse her multiorgan failure.
He had stashed away some money for their relocation, and this money was enough for the three of them to maintain a sensible living, but he never expected that Anne would have to undergo so many surgeries.
