Chapter 1305
After some thought, Maria stood up and said, "What about this? I'll look for him since he won’t answer my call."
That earned her a surprised look from Fabian. "He doesn’t even want to answer your calls, so are you sure he'll be willing to meet you? Even so, would he agree to your request?"
"We can't talk things out on the phone. When we meet later, I'll stop Mr. Austin from leaving, so he will have no choice but to listen to whatever I say.
"I heard he's busy with something at the institute's lab, so I bet I could meet him if I wait long enough. Plus, I have a great gift for him, and I'm sure it's something he'll be interested in!" Maria pinched her fingers midair, smiling confidently.
"It's all talk now, and you're planning to spend so much already? Do you think my money grows on trees?" Fabian was displeased after he learned that his wife would spend money on Austin.
His business had not been faring well recently, so he wanted to seek help from Cameron, his brother-in-law, who had rejected him coldly. If it were not for that, Fabian would not have thought of finding the miracle doctor to cure Anastasia's illness to get Cameron to owe him a favor.
However, he was not confident in this plan and doubted Austin, "the miracle doctor," thinking he was a conman. Even if the doctor was legit, he was unsure if he could treat Anastasia's illness because that was something many doctors had failed to do over the years.
Hence, he thought engaging the miracle doctor would be a waste of money. Fabian would only pay the doctor after Anastasia’s illness was cured. By then, he would be willing to pay more than the agreed fees.
Maria had a different opinion about this. "How could we get him to help us without paying him a considerable sum first? He's a miracle doctor and not an ordinary one you see at the clinics. It won't work if we don't show him our sincerity!
