Chapter 1223: 319: Panic, Unveiling the Ugly Truth! _2 Chapter 1223: 319: Panic, Unveiling the Ugly Truth! _2 It sounds like…
Miss Thompson is rather reluctant to meet the Golemon's parents.
Being too busy is just an excuse.
Even if she were busy, she couldn't possibly not find the time to meet them.
Now, with Golemon's parents brimming with hopes, she herself cannot bluntly express Miss Thompson's intentions.
Kayla Sullivan looked up at Mrs. Golemon, then asked, “Auntie, did Miss Thompson specify what time she would come tomorrow?”
Mrs. Golemon answered, “Tomorrow at one o'clock in the afternoon.”
Kayla Sullivan silently scoffed.
The attending doctor turned to Mrs. Golemon and began to administer a dose of reality. “What if Miss Thompson is still too busy tomorrow?”
Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow… there's always another tomorrow.
After all, Miss Thompson is no ordinary person.
Let alone Golemon's parents.
There are numerous foreign leaders waiting to meet her.
How could she possibly find time to meet two ordinary individuals?
If Miss Thompson was genuinely going to meet them, she wouldn't have postponed the meeting till one o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
Upon hearing this, worry immediately filled the eyes of Golemon's parents.
Viola Thompson is now Tiffany Golemon's only hope.
If Viola Thompson refuses to meet them…
Then there really is no hope for Tiffany Golemon!
What to do, what to do?
Kayla immediately reassured them with a smile, “Don't worry, uncle and auntie. From what I know, Miss Thompson is a very punctual and trustworthy person. If she said she will meet you at one o'clock in the afternoon, she will definitely keep that arrangement!”
She was deliberately distorting the truth.
Forget about tomorrow!
Even if they wait till next year, Golemon's parents won't get to see Viola Thompson.
Sasha nodded, chiming in, “Kayla is right. Miss Thompson is not the kind of person who goes back on her word.”
Though she only met Viola once, Sasha could tell that Viola was not like others. She didn't exude that arrogant aura typically found in successful people.
Even if it were just for the fact that Tiffany Golemon belonged to the Sinian people, she might consider performing the surgery on her.
Unless Tiffany's illness was truly irredeemable.
Kayla nodded with a smile, “So, uncle, auntie, please don't worry. Tiffany's good fortune is still to come!”
The attending physician wanted to say something but ultimately remained silent.
Inside the S Laboratory.
Viola Thompson had been working non-stop for eight hours.
Vincent Lee was assisting her.
He was somewhat worried, seeing that Viola hadn't even taken a sip of water, let alone rest within these eight hours.
Even he, a strong man, felt a bit tired, let alone Viola, a young girl.
Vincent went over to Viola and said, “Boss, why don't you take a break? I can handle things here, for now.”
“I'm not tired,” Viola replied. “You go observe the cellular changes in test tube B, and record them. We'll need the data in tomorrow afternoon's meeting.”
“Alright,” Vincent nodded.
The two of them continued to work tirelessly in the lab.
Three hours passed in the blink of an eye.
Finally, Viola stepped out of the lab.
She took off her lab coat, and Mila immediately handed her a cup of milk tea, “Vio, you're working so hard.”
“Thanks”. Viola took a big sip of the milk tea, feeling instantly refreshed.
The only remedy for sorrow is milk tea!
Mila looked at Viola, her eyes full of envy, “Vio, you drink milk tea every day, how do you stay so slim?”
Whenever she drank milk tea, she felt like an inflating balloon.
Yet Viola never seemed to gain weight.
At that, Viola gave a slight smile, “If you could keep up with exercising for an hour every morning, you wouldn't gain weight either.”
Mila immediately shook her head, “No, no, no, I could never keep that up.”
Viola woke up on time at five-thirty every morning.
Mila once tried to keep up with her.
For the first three days, she managed to wake up at five-thirty. After that, it became six-thirty, seven-thirty, eight-thirty…
In the end, if she didn't have classes or lab work, she practically never woke up.
A half day would pass with her still lying in the dorm.
At the same time, this was what she admired the most about Viola.
Viola drained half the cup of milk tea in one gulp, “Well, I can't help it then. There's a saying in Sinian, 'you can't have your cake and eat it too.'
After saying that, Viola seemed to remember something, “Didn't you say someone was looking for me this afternoon?”
“Yes,” Mila nodded, “You were too busy at the time, so I asked them to come back tomorrow afternoon at one o'clock. There were three people in total, a middle-aged couple from Sinian and an individual from Country Polluton. They seemed to have something important to tell you. They didn't look like they were joking around, so I delayed it until tomorrow afternoon.”
