Veridia City, The Faulkner Group branch.
Ever since yesterday, Jasper Faulkner suddenly had a ton of overwhelming issues to handle, catching him off guard.
While working overtime like crazy, he wailed and lamented, bluntly saying Alaric Faulkner was a ruthless capitalist exploiting workers.
Wasn’t it agreed he’d help share the workload? Now dumping everything on him, what’s the deal?
This is brother abuse!
Assistant Charles Chapman was there with Jasper Faulkner for his overtime.
Seeing Jasper Faulkner’s utterly defeated look, he couldn’t help but suggest, "Might it be you did something that upset the elder brother, so he’s purposely messing with you ?"
Jasper Faulkner glanced at him, "What did I do to provoke my brother? I’m even keeping my distance from Eleanor Sterling when I meet her..."
Suddenly, his expression shifted slightly, muttering, "Could it be five steps isn’t far enough?"
Charles Chapman’s face twitched, "Uh... surely the elder brother isn’t that obsessive, right?"
But recalling the call that day from Alaric Faulkner, seeing his possessiveness towards Eleanor Sterling, Charles suddenly wondered.
Maybe it was entirely possible for Alaric Faulkner to act .
Jasper Faulkner cursed under his breath, saying, "Who knows if this old man suddenly blooms like an iron tree, maybe his demeanor changed.
Must be because of this! From now on, I’ll stay ten steps away from Eleanor Sterling!"
Liam Keene, upon hearing that Eleanor Sterling was aiming for medical school, looked at her as if she were crazy.
"You went to the Faulkner Family once and got bewitched? You’re actually aiming for medical school? How is that any different from a max level boss slaughtering the newbie village?"
Listening to Liam’s analogy, Eleanor Sterling coughed lightly, "Don’t exaggerate it like that, am I really that impressive?"
Liam chuckled, "Dear Doctor Sally, if I may remind you, your surgery schedule is already booked till the end of next year."
So isn’t Eleanor Sterling quite impressive?
Anyone hearing the name Sally would respectfully call her a big shot.
Eleanor Sterling shot him a glare, old?
Liam felt the chill and quickly chickened out, hastily shifting the subject.
"Oh right, I found out that the Hayes Family’s young lady is also staying at this hotel.
Why isn’t she going home, staying at the hotel, what’s she up to?
Could it be she knows you’re here and wants to come apologize?"
Eleanor Sterling didn’t even lift an eyelid, obviously uninterested, "You ask me, who do I ask?"
"Regarding the Hayes Family’s surgery, when do you plan to start on it?"
Eleanor Sterling furrowed her brows, recalling being kicked out, her pitiful homeless state, and said, "It’s not an emergency, they won’t die, let them wait."
Liam stood up, "Alright then, go play in medical school first."
After saying that, he stood up and returned to his room.
Suddenly, there was a commotion, everyone gathered around a man who had collapsed on the ground.
Eleanor Sterling happened to pass by, she paused for a moment, then approached to see.
The man lying on the ground was pale, seemingly in a coma.
News stories about being sued for helping fallen elderly were rampant lately, causing no one to dare step forward.
Eleanor Sterling stepped forward, "Let me take a look."
She crouched down to check, finding it wasn’t a major issue, likely just a faint from low blood sugar.
Discovering the issue, Eleanor Sterling stood up, deciding to head outside to a convenience store to buy a sugary drink and some candy.
People didn’t pay much attention to her departure.
After Eleanor Sterling left, Faye Sterling appeared dragging a suitcase; seeing the elderly man on the ground, her eyes gleamed.
Here in Aethelgard, if she just arrived and immediately got praised for saving someone, it’d definitely be a huge advantage for entering medical school. Googlᴇ search NoveI★Fire.net
