Mysterious Mr.Richard novel Chapter 66

Lucas frowned, "What is it this time?"

"The soup that the caregiver prepared was too hot," James, his assistant, replied.

"Is that so?"

"How could it be," James shook his head and frowned. "I've told her over and over again that the temperature of Mr. Casper's food must be just right. It was not because the caregiver made a mistake, Mr. Casper just wanted to be mad." 

As soon as he finished, a loud crashing came from the bedroom.

Another series of crashes fell on the ground. 

"Okay, give Mr. Richard a call later and ask him to come here. Mr. Casper has to eat, one way or another." Lucas sighed helplessly and said in a low voice.

"Yes, sir."

After James left, Lucas walked towards the door of the bedroom and knocked on it. "Mr. Casper, it's me."

There was no response. Lucas did not enter the room. He could faintly see a figure at the head of the bed through the crack of the door, who was clad in black pajamas. He was extremely thin and his face was a little pale under the light.

"The caregiver has been dismissed as she was terrible in her job. I'll find another, until you'll be happy with. Don't worry. It's not good for your health."

"Huh... Who cares if I'm not in good health?" Two coughs came from the room.

"Mr. Casper, please do not say that. Your father, mother, and brother all care about you. They send you all sorts of great gifts."

Casper snorted coldly. "What? My dad does? If he really did care about me, how could he not even see me once after my accident?"

Lucas frowned. "Mr. Zellweger did come here before. It was you who rejected to let him in. It was you who didn't want to see him. Right?"

"Just once! He only came that one time. When I didn't let him in, he never came again." Casper suddenly became emotional. "I know, he doesn't are about our family any more. He only wants to live with that woman!"

Casper started his rambling about the past, something that Lucas was already used to. Only when Casper finished, Lucas decided to speak, "Mr. Casper, I'll tell the kitchen to prepare some new dishes for you."   

He closed the door and it became very quiet outside.

Looking around the big three-story house, it was glorious and full of servants. Yet, even an old man like him, who was over the old age, felt lonely, let alone Mr. Casper, a 20-year-old boy.     

Lucas looked at the bedroom and sighed silently, then went downstairs.

At this time, the black car was driving smoothly on the street of Kityall City, and the man's cold side profile was reflected in the rearview mirror.    

After hanging up the phone, Richard ordered, "Go to Casper's place."

"Yes, sir."

In the passenger seat, Ted asked in hesitation, "Is Mr. Casper unwilling to eat again?"

Richard frowned nodded slightly. He didn't say much. "Please, go on."

Before Richard answered the phone, Ted was reporting to him about the real reason why Pearl had been suspended for such a long time in the City Hospital. Just as the most important points, he was interrupted by Richard's phone.

"Okay, someone told the dean that they didn't want Dr. Yonng to continue working in the hospital so Dr. Yonng had been suspended for so long."

"Who?"

 "Miss Wood." Ted hesitated for a second before spitting out two words. "Miss Wood."

Richard's eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of displeasure flashed across his eyes.

He didn't like people who were smart alecks, also he didn't like them interfering with his matters. The reason why he had decided to marry Adriana was because she knew what she should do, but she shouldn't intervene in this matter.

"Mr. Zellweger, if you put pressure on Mr. Simpson in your name, he will certainly let Dr. Yonng return to work."

"Nope"

"Get the media department to publish some gossip." Richard's expression darkened. 

"What gossip?"

"Publish the short video about Evelina that we've suppressed before."

"The one in the crew?"

"Yes."

Ted came back to his senses after a long time. He did not understand why his boss would do this, but he did not dare to ask more. If he asked too much, he always felt that his boss would think that he was stupid.   

"Ok. I'll do it right away."

......

The next day, Pearl drove back to the City Hospital after she came out of Ocpeace Medical University.

Her hospital didn't inform her of returning back, and Pearl didn't get any phone calls. It was exactly what Ethan had said. Things were not that simple, and Dr. Wale backing her up was useless.    

However, Dr. Wale had called her and asked her to go back to the hospital to help him do some data test on the thesis. Meanwhile, she could tutor the students on their thesis. Although she couldn't continue her job as a doctor, she could still get some scientific research fees.   

"Mr. Wale, have you found me this leisurely job because you were too afraid that I couldn't support myself?"  

Pearl put down the students' thesis, after she came back to the office.

"Huh? It's not easy to go to both the lab and the hospital on such a hot day. Also, these students' thesis are too horrible to read. Can you even bear it?" Dr. Wale took a sip of tea and rolled his eyes at her.    

"Back then, you also commented on my thesis like this. Heart to heart. I will definitely teach my juniors a good lesson." Pearl said disapprovingly. 

"Come on. It's better to finish checking the first drafts as soon as possible."

......

A knock on the door came from outside, as they were talking.

Dr. Wale took a look. "Come in." 

"Dr. Wale." It was Dr. Butler from the administrative department of the hospital. He was in a hurry. "Dr. Yonng, thanks god you are here. Come with me to the meeting room."

"What's wrong?" Pearl was stunned for a while. "Me?"

"Yes, the dean sent me here."

"What happened?"

"Let's talk about it later. It's quite sudden." As he was saying, Dr. Butler was about to pull Pearl away.  

"Wait a minute." Dr. Wale suddenly stood up from the behind of the desk. "Pearl is still on suspension. Tell me what happened first. Otherwise, she was not allowed to leave. She's my personal assistant now."

Dr. Wale was highly respected in the City Hospital. Everyone had to somewhat listen to him, So had Dr. Butler.

At the moment, Dr. Butler was hanging a sad face. "Dr. Wale, please don't make me difficult. It is really urgent. The news on the Internet has caused a lot of troubles. If it continues, it will not be good for our hospital. The consequences will be too terrible."   

"News?"

"Look at this." Dr. Butler took out his mobile phone immediately and said, "It has been on the news in the early morning, and now it has reached the top of the most searched hashtags."

Pearl saw the news at a glance as she was standing next to Dr. Butler.

"Evelina was bigheaded and hurt the medical expert of a drama crew. The responsible hospital ignored this and suspended the medical expert..."

"..."

"Originally, Evelina was the focus, but her agents led the fire to our hospital. Why didn't they try to apologize to Dr. Yonng, but instead find fault with us?" Dr. Butler said.   

As he finished his words, Pearl understood immediately and exchanged a glance with Dr. Wale.
