Chapter 374
“What do you think?” Jimmie sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. He was exhausted from his flight back from overseas. “Besides spoil her, what else can I do?”
He shook his head, a fond smile playing on his lips. This was his sister, who had suffered for so many years. He’d give her his life if she asked for it, let alone some autographs.
“Also,” his assistant said, his tone turning serious, “we’ve caught the people who started the rumors. One of them is the heiress of the Wilcox family, Yelena.”
“Prosecute the others according to the law,” Jimmie instructed quietly. “As for Ms. Wilcox… leave her for now. Let Juniper handle it.”
If Juniper dealt with it, she wouldn’t just be targeting Yelena; she’d be taking on the entire Wilcox family.
That evening, Juniper was playing a game when a message popped up. The sender was listed as “Baldy Fox.”
Baldy Fox was the eighty-year-old president of the Orient Country Medical Association. He was completely bald but still stubbornly dedicated to his work.
Three years ago, the association had suffered a major setback, facing a joint boycott from medical associations in other countries. By a stroke of luck, he had met a teenage genius. With her help, in just six months, the association developed several core medicines, published groundbreaking medical journals, and completed countless high-difficulty surgeries. The Orient Country Medical Association returned to the global stage, securing a prominent position.
Baldy Fox: [Kiddo, are you free lately?]
Juniper: [No.]
She had no fond memories of the old man. She had only helped him back then because she’d felt sorry for him after finding him crying by a dumpster, bullied by foreign medical associations. But he had taken her kindness for granted, relentlessly exploiting her talent. She was forced to research drugs, write papers, and even train his underlings. Worst of all, Baldy Fox was incredibly cheap. All the money went into research, leaving her with barely enough to eat three meals a day. She, a growing girl, was left hungry. The injustice still stung!
Baldy Fox sent a voice message, his voice cracking with despair.
“Cough, cough… Kiddo, please, just listen to me… cough, wheeze
He sounded like he was on his last breath.
Juniper: [Just say what you need to say. Don’t die in my DMs.]
Baldy Fox’s tone immediately returned to normal, full of sycophantic cheerfulness.
“The Global Medical Alliance
Association is about to hold its new member elections. This year, Orient Country Wants to give it a shot. So, I was hoping you could help tramm someone for us. He’s got excellent qualifications, he’s smart, and he has that same spark you had back in the day.”
Orient Country had been a latecomer to the modern medical scene, and its technology had initially lagged behind, earning it little respect. But in recent years, with economic development, and the influx of top tier talent, its medical. technology had advanced rapidly,
making other nations nervous.
This year, they had finally secured a nomination. Baldy Fox wanted to win one last battle for his country before he retired.
Baldy Fox: [Kiddo, he really has potential. To be honest, every time I watch him in surgery, his posture reminds me of you. It’s like you two were cut from the same cloth.]
Juniper: [Huh?]
Baldy Fox It’s true, I swear! Please,
Kiddo, you have to help me.
Otherwise, I won’t be able to rest in peace. It come haunt you every
night… cough, cough, cough
He was making it clear that if she refused, he would happily die on her conscience.
Juniper sighed. [Who is it?]
Baldy Fox: [Excellent! Just a moment, Kiddo, I’ll have him add you.]
A few seconds later, a friend request popped up.
