The Million-Dollar Heart (Percival and Vivienne) novel Chapter 290

Percival gave her a rather aloof grunt. "What is it?"

"I heard Richard had a car accident." Seeing that the man in front of her paid absolutely no attention to her, Calista clenched her fingers and squeezed out a smile. "The surgery was very successful. I wonder who the surgeon was. Could you introduce me?"

"No!" Percival coldly glanced at the woman in front of him, not mincing his words in his response.

Calista was taken aback, and her smile froze on her face. "I came based on her reputation, Mr. Ellington. You don’t need to be so sensitive."

"And?" Percival's attitude did not soften at all, but rather became more indifferent.

"I..." Calista wanted to say something else, but Percival didn't give her another glance. He quickly turned around to leave.

Just as Percival left, Paul, who had been feeling a bit restless in the hospital room, came out.

He saw Calista and was slightly surprised. "Calista, what brings you here?"

Calista snapped out of her depressed daze. She smiled and said, "I came to check on Richard."

"Oh." Paul was now very sensitive to the name Richard and didn't feel like continuing the conversation, so he said, "Then go in. My grandfather is in the room."

With that, Paul turned to leave.

"Wait!" Calista suddenly called out to him.

Paul stopped in his tracks. "Is there something else?"

"I heard that the doctor who treated your grandfather is very good. Can you tell me who she is?" Calista asked.

At the mention of this, Paul's anger flared up. "Good? She's nothing more than a blind cat! What kind of medical skills does Vivienne, that country bumpkin, have? Mentioning her is bad luck!" Paul didn't want to talk to Calista anymore and turned to leave.

Calista stood in disbelief. She could hardly believe her ears.

Vivienne?

The one who performed the surgery on Richard was Vivienne?

How could this be?

Even if she knew enough medical skills to fool people, there was a huge gap between performing surgery and regular checkups.

But according to the hospital staff, Vivienne's medical skills were really exceptional.

No!

She didn't believe it!

This must be people over-glorifying Vivienne again!

Calista clenched her teeth and pushed the door into the room open, only to see Ryan and Cathy, who hadn't left.

Richard was lying in bed, already fast asleep.

"Dr. Pendleton."

The Ellington and Pendleton families didn't cross paths much, but Cathy had heard about Calista from friends.

Since she was from a prominent medical family, Calista's reputation was quite well-known.

"Hello." Calista politely greeted her. "I heard about Richard, so I came to check on him."
