She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204: Yanci!

“That’s impossible. The international racer Yanci? In a place like this? I heard that the organizers send him an invitation every year, but there’s no way he’ll have any interest in races that aren’t fit to be seen in public like this.”

“Sigh, that’s true. You’re right. In that case, Logan is really done for this time! And so are the Andersons, right? If they want their son back, they’ll need 50 million dollars…”

“…”

The two passed by Nora as they chatted.

Nora stopped in her tracks.

She had known all along that Logan seemed to be in some kind of trouble, but she hadn’t expected it to be this bad.

Why didn’t he bring up even a word about it at home?

While thinking about it, Nora sent Cherry a text message reminding her to pay attention to her safety. Then, she headed to the racers’ lounge.

The racers’ lounge wasn’t accessible to ordinary people.

The people guarding the place were all men that Jordan trusted the most. The one standing guard at the entrance happened to be one of the people who had tried to stop Nora from going up the stairs when she rushed over to the Hoffmans’ the other day. He had also been involved in what happened after that, so he knew who she was. Rather surprised to see her, he hastily said, “I’ll take you to Mr. Hoffman!”

The Andersons’ affairs were indeed rather troublesome this time.

Mr. Hoffman had also been having a headache over it the last couple of days.

If he had known this would happen, he would’ve listened to Logan and postponed the race to next month.

What was he to do now?

That was 50 million dollars they were talking about. Even they would have difficulty forking out that money, let alone the Andersons. After all, who would have that much cash with them?

Nora nodded.

As she walked into the lounge with the man, they ran into Mrs. Hoffman.

Mrs. Hoffman had been taking care of Jimmy in the hospital the last few days, so she hadn’t had a good sleep in a while. It was to the extent that she even had dark circles under her eyes. At the sight of Nora, she grabbed her hand and said sincerely, “Oh, you’ve come? I was just about to go and look for you. Are you here because of Logan? I know all about it. Don’t worry, I will definitely make sure he’s fine!”

She went on and said, “I came here especially to look for Jordan. Even if there’s no other way, we can at least get those 50 million dollars ready!”

The corners of Nora’s lips spasmed a little as she stared at Mrs. Hoffman, who seemed like a completely different person now.

The woman was really straightforward.

She said unhurriedly, “No, it’s fine.”

Mrs. Hoffman sighed and said, “You don’t have to stand on ceremony with us. I’ve already heard from the doctor—if you hadn’t rushed over to our place, what I would have seen the next morning would probably have been Jimmy’s dead body since I had thought that he was feeling unwell just because he was scared. You saved him! So, that makes you our benefactor! I’m willing to give you even my life, let alone 50 million dollars. I have some jewelry here that should also be worth a sum…”

At this point, she suddenly straightened her back and said, “By the way, I haven’t formally apologized to you yet. I misunderstood you. Sigh, I’m not trying to make excuses for myself, but every time Jimmy got a headache in school, the teacher would call me; but every time I brought him back home, he would be right as rain again. That boy is such a halfwit. To think he couldn’t even describe the symptoms clearly. We had also gone to the hospital for his headaches. The doctor suggested a brain CT scan, but also said that there will be radiation exposure, so he wanted us to think about it ourselves. Later, we took him back home, yet he said that it didn’t hurt anymore. This repeated over and over again… That was why when you told us to have a lumbar puncture done, my first reaction was to think that you were spouting nonsense… Now that I think about it, I was really so ignorant!”

Nora actually wasn’t angry.

She had seen family members of patients who were even more difficult to deal with than Mrs. Hoffman. Besides, doctors tended to favor conservative methods of treatment for children.

The amount of radiation exposure that a brain CT scan would expose one to, was equivalent to 1.5 times the amount of a chest radiograph.

It was normal for doctors to let them make the decision themselves.

She nodded. Then, she interrupted Mrs. Hoffman and said, “I’d like to visit Logan.”
