The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire

Chapter 1242

Chapter 1242 Center of Attention

The smooth hum of the engine died down as a luxurious and swank Ferrari ground to a halt at the entrance of the hospital. The executives and doctors had already been standing in wait, surrounding the vehicle with fawning smiles as a woman alighted. Kailee stepped out of the car with her head raised, lending her a noble and elegant air. The director of the hospital quickly walked over and greeted her with an obsequious bow.

“Miss Gibson,” he said in an obviously ingratiating tone, “thank you for taking the time to come and grace us with your presence. It is our privilege to have you here. Just your appearance has greatly elevated the occasion.”

“You are being too kind, director. The honor is mine.”

The corners of Kailee’s mouth rose slightly. Her words were full of humility, but there was arrogance in her eyes.

She basked in the flattery of the director and executives that surrounded her—their attention sweeping away the vexation from the past few days. Kailee took her seat at the center of the podium with her head held high.
