Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO

Chapter 10

Chapter 10

Frederick was in utter shock at that diagnosis.

Just then, a doctor from the internal medicine

department approached him and said, “Your mom’s

cancer is already at the advanced stage. She needs to

be operated on immediately. Otherwise, her life will be

in danger!”

Frederick’s voice was shaking as he asked, “How… How

much does the surgery cost?”

“Three hundred thousand. Any additional procedures

will be charged separately.” The doctor left after saying

that.

Being a doctor at the hospital, Frederick knew the

hospital policies well. He was aware that the surgery

would only be arranged after payment was made.

“Emmanuel, what should I do now? I don’t have three

hundred thousand!”

Frederick was at a loss as to what to do.

He had only been working at the hospital for two years,

and most of his income had been spent on his

younger sister’s college education. As such, he did not

have much savings left.

“Don’t worry, we will think of something!” Emmanuel

comforted his friend.

After a pause, he shoved the bank card that

Alessandra had given to him into Frederick’s hand and

said, “Take this first. There’s sixty thousand in here.”

“T-This… Isn’t this your mom’s bank card? How can I use

this money?” Frederick’s body was trembling as his

eyes welled up with tears.

That was his best friend’s mother’s hard-earned

money, and it did not feel right for him to use it.

“Don’t worry about that. The current priority is to save

your mom!” Emmanuel insisted that Frederick keep the

bank card.

“But even with this, I still don’t have three hundred

thousand! A hundred thousand is the most I can

scrape together by today,” Frederick replied in a

quavering voice, sounding as if he was on the verge of

bursting into tears.

“Besides, I really can’t take your mom’s money. I don’t

know how long it will take for me to repay it…”

Emmanuel felt rather helpless as well upon seeing the

agonized look on Frederick’s face.

At that moment, Milani happened to walk past and

noticed the interaction between the two men.

“Ha! Don’t you guys find it embarra*sing for two grown

men to be seen crying in the hospital?”

Milani had always looked down on Emmanuel and had

just fought with Frederick earlier. Obviously, she would

not miss the chance to mock them upon witnessing

the scene.

“Milani, just shut up!” Emmanuel chided the woman for

her sarcastic remarks.

As Frederick was already devastated by the news of

his mother’s cancer diagnosis, Emmanuel could not let

Milani rub salt into the man’s wound.
