Evelyne looked at her daughter and then at Richard and wondered if these two already knew each other.

She had a contemplative look in her eyes as she observed the two.

"Auntie, about your condition I will talk to doctor Martin and see what can be done. It will be even better if the surgery will be scheduled early on before your condition worsened."

"You don't have to worry about that. Amanda is working really hard and I will have the surgery once she gets paid."

As she said so, she looked at her daughter with pity.

It was her responsibility as a mother to give her daughter a good life. But here she was lying in a hospital bed while her daughter faced the cruel world on her own.

She really failed as a mother.

But once she gets better she will make up for it. They will face the challenges together and her daughter will never suffer again.

"You do not have to worry about the bill. I will take care of it. And you cannot refuse. Just take it as an angel of God helping you." Richard said in a manner that Evelyne could not refuse.

She turned to look at her daughter but her daughter's gaze was on the man before her.

What God's sent angel. Does he think that she is such a fool to accept help from a stranger. There was nothing like free lunch in this world. And the most unbelievable thing is that the man who was known to be the most ruthless and cold hearted was the one offering free lunch.

Hah, Amanda scoffed in her heart.

After her past life experience, she learnt to be more cautious about men and trusting their words.

"Amanda what do you think about that?" Her mother asked when she saw her expression getting darker and darker.

Amanda came back to her senses after hearing her mother's voice.

"Ohh about that.... we are sorry sir but we can't accept your offer. I will get my pay in one week's time and I will pay for my mother's surgery. You don't need to be concerned." Amanda declined politely but her voice carried a trace of coldness.

Richard gave a small smile after hearing what Amanda said.
