That Night My Boss Left Me With Our Three Babies

Chapter 28: The Only Opportunity



Upon learning that she had been manipulated and with several projects at the research institute being stalled, Olivia couldn’t help but feel irritated.

She never expected that after six years, Emma’s hostility towards her would still be so strong, even resorting to such despicable means!

But now was not the time to vent her emotions.

Olivia pinched her palm to calm herself down and looked up at Gabriel. “It’s okay, if Seacrest doesn’t work, we can contact herbal medicine merchants in other cities. We’ll surely find someone willing to cooperate with us.”

However, the cost and time involved would be slightly higher.

Although Olivia didn’t say it, she was well aware of this fact.

She also hoped to find a suitable local partner, but it was currently not feasible.

“No… we might not have to go to another city,” Gabriel suddenly thought of something, his tone becoming relaxed.

Hearing this, Olivia raised an eyebrow. “Do you think there are other herbal medicine merchants in Seacrest we can collaborate with? The small pharmacies won’t do; we need someone with a certain scale…”

Gabriel nodded. “I know, but this matter might require you to personally get involved.”

Olivia was even more puzzled.

“I remember you mentioned that you knew something about the herbal medicine merchants in Seacrest. Have you heard of the Whitaker family?”

Gabriel said, “The Whitaker family has a long history in the herbal medicine business and holds a high position in Seacrest. Old Whitaker, in particular, is highly respected. However, his health has not been good in recent years, and as a result, the Whitaker family has sought out renowned doctors, but none have been able to help Old Whitaker. They also asked me to take a look, but I admit I don’t have the ability. However, you might.”

“Is that so?”

Olivia understood his meaning but still had some concerns. “But considering the large scale of the Whitaker family, the prices of their herbal medicines might not be lower than what we have now.”

Gabriel said, “Previously, the Whitaker family made a promise that if someone could cure Old Whitaker, they would provide a batch of expensive herbal medicines for free and even offer future purchases at half the price.”

Upon hearing this, Olivia’s eyes lit up, and the heavy burden in her heart slowly lifted. “If that’s the case, why didn’t you say so earlier?”

Gabriel chuckled, “I did consider it before, but you hadn’t arrived yet, and my abilities were insufficient. In the end, I gave up on the idea and forgot about it until just now when it came to mind. I thought maybe you could give it a try. What do you think?”

“Of course, no problem!”

Olivia immediately stood up and urged, “Help me contact the Whitaker family and ask when I can go.”

Seeing her urgency for the sake of the research institute, Gabriel’s heart stirred, and he smiled in response, “I’ll go right away. Wait for me here.”

After saying that, he left the office to make a phone call.

Regardless of Old Whitaker’s condition, she was determined to do everything in her power to cure him for the sake of the research institute.

Soon, Gabriel returned.

“How did it go?” Olivia asked.

Gabriel nodded, “The Whitaker family hasn’t found a doctor who can treat Old Whitaker yet. When they heard that I recommended someone to go and take a look, they readily agreed.”

“When are we going?” Olivia inquired.

“Tonight,” Gabriel replied.

Olivia immediately agreed.

The timing was just right, and she wanted to get started as soon as possible.

“Please tell me about Old Whitaker’s symptoms so that I can prepare in advance.” Olivia’s expression turned serious when it came to treating an illness.

Gabriel agreed to her request.
