At Innisrial General Hospital, Aimee Read walked out of the operating room, opened the door of the office, and saw an elderly man sitting on the sofa, waiting for her.
"Grandpa." Aimee called out obediently. Even though she was exhausted, she was still humble, showing no resentment towards this unexpected guest.
Mason Read clasped his hands on the crutches. He did not show a good look, and he didn't respond immediately.
Aimee had long been used to Mason's attitude, so she didn't say anything, but walked back to her desk.
She just had an operation, so she was physically and mentally exhausted. The operation lasted for twenty hours, and she could fall asleep even if she blinked.
Finally, Mason relaxed and said, "I have told you, asked you to quit your job as a doctor. It's not that our family can't afford you."
Aimee didn't make a sound.
In the past, she would have resisted and defended how much she loved this job, and begged the old man to give her a little freedom.
However, every time, it just ended without a solution, and she would be cursed.
Aimee was really tired of coping with that.
Mason saw that she didn't speak, and the anger in his heart surged up even more.
However, thinking of the purpose of coming here today, Mason didn't curse, but changed his tone.
"You don't have to show me that attitude, as if I owe you something. Aimee, we the Read family never owes you something." Mason said.
Aimee bit her lip. Although she didn't want to answer, she really didn't want to hear Mason say something worse, so she said softly, "I know."
She was taken to Read's family at the age of seven. She knew that these so-called relatives took a load of troubles to take her just for gaining a good reputation, and they didn't really care whether she was their blood relative.
Realizing this reality early on, Aimee hid her enthusiasm and no longer longed for warm family affection.
"Now that you know it, it's time for you to do something for your family." Mason said it by taking this opportunity.
Aimee raised her gaze to look at Mason. She realized that it was probably something that had been discussed at home recently. At first, she thought that this kind of thing would not be her turn, but now that she thought about it, and this was a hot potato itself. It was impossible for the other granddaughters at home to agree.
Mason said, "As you know, the third son of the Hayden family has reached the age of marriage. Mr. Hayden chose our girls from among so many girls of other wealthy families, but Iris and Jaylah both have their own boyfriends, and Mikayla is still young. So, for the engagement with the third son of Hayden family, I think you are the most suitable candidate."
Hearing this, Aimee's expression didn't change much, but she felt miserable.
How high-sounding what Mason said! Aimee, who knew the truth, only felt how ironic in her heart.
Half a year ago, due to an accident, the third son of Hayden family had high paraplegia. And she and her tutor performed the operation together.
Wasn't it because the three girls from the family knew the inside story, refused to marry to the Hayden family and be the grass widow, so they left this to her?
Otherwise, why did Mason come to the hospital to talk to her in person today after the Hayden family sent a message three days ago?
It was also because the Hayden family was an extremely powerful and top wealthy family. Although it only ranked third on the public rich list, the rich and noble people all knew that Hayden family was low-key. If their real wealth was exposed, it was afraid that Hayden family will be the richest family in the world.
Although the Read family was also on the rich list, they were on the bottom.
For a top and wealthy family like the Hayden family, by all means the Reads hoped that the girls they really loved will be married to the Hayden family.
Aimee remained silent for a while, which undoubtedly consumed Mason's patience.
If it was in the past, he must have scolded her harshly, but he was still patient today.
Seeing that Aimee didn't say something for a long time, Mason could only show the conditions he had thought up in advance, "I think you really like this job. In this way, if you marry into the Hayden family, I will no longer care about your future. If you want be a little doctor and be relieved, I won't have any opinions."
Aimee finally had some reaction, raised her eyes to look at Mason, and finally said, "Thank you, Grandpa."
This was regarded as an agreement.
Mason snorted coldly. His attitude changed sharply, and he ordered Aimee, "After you marry him, don't forget our family. You are the daughter of the Read family. And you must consider everything for our family. You have to help your brothers, sisters, uncles and aunts all the time."
Aimee finally couldn't help sneering in her heart.
She was still out of touch with the Hayden family, and Mason had already thought about that.
But at this moment, Aimee just wanted to send away her profit-oriented grandfather quickly. Therefore, she nodded, and replied, "I understand."
After all, it was up to her to decide whether to do it or not.
Seeing that Aimee didn't have any strange intentions, Mason explained a few more words before leaving.
The office finally became quiet. Aimee rubbed her forehead, with a pair of eyes full of pain.
After a while, Aimee took off her white coat and stepped out of the office.
