Chapter 144

Eileen’s grandpa, Mr. Robin Howard, was a big shot in the medical field with countless students under his belt.

Yet in his entire life, he only took on three students.

The oldest and the first to become his disciple was Malloy Carl.

Nowadays, he’s a big wig, loaded with honors from various associations and hospitals, and holds a super high social status.

Eileen hadn’t been in touch with Malloy for a while.

The last time she saw him was the year after her grandpa passed away.

That year, she ran into her grandpa’s three students when she was visiting his grave on the anniversary of her grandparents’ death.

Just then, from the other end of the phone, Malloy’s surprised voice rang out, “Eileen? Is that really you? Why the sudden call? Are you in town? Where are you? I’ll send someone to pick you up.”

Listening to Malloy’s nonstop chatter, Eileen couldn’t help but chuckle, saying, “Malloy, the grandma of a friend of mine is sick, and I was hoping you could take a look.”

Then, Eileen explained the situation and handed the phone over to Chad Lopez so he could fill Malloy in.

After a while, Chad handed the phone back to Eileen.

He said with a complex expression, “Mr. Carl wants to speak to you.”

Eileen took over the phone.

From the other end, Malloy asked, “Eileen, which med school are you in now? Can you take some time off? I could go see your friend’s grandma. If you’re free, you could tag along.”.

Eileen said a little awkwardly, “Malloy, I didn’t study medicine.”

There was silence on the other end. Malloy was flabbergasted.

After a while, he finally said, “You didn’t study medicine? How is that possible? Your talent… Did you study science then? Like your grandma? Are you planning to become a programmer or a scientist?”

Eileen bit her lip, “I didn’t study science either.”

This time, Malloy was silent for even longer, “Did you follow your dad and go to military school? Eileen, girls being military can get hurt easily…”

“Malloy…”

Eileen cut off Malloy, saying somewhat gloomily, “I became an actress.”

Malloy thought he had heard wrong.
