Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty

"Ms. Henderson, I'm sorry!" Derek was the first to speak, followed quickly by the other doctors and nurses in the operating room, who each offered their own apologies to Yolanda.

"It's okay," Yolanda said, waving them off. "I know you all were just trying to do what's best for the patient."

These medical professionals weren't the type to judge others based on their status. From another angle, they were just doing their jobs, and Yolanda had no intention of holding it against them or harboring any resentment.

"Ms. Henderson, you have my deepest gratitude from this day on. You're now an honored friend of the Wright family. Whatever you need, just say the word! I'd even lay down my life for you without hesitation!"

Evan was the most important person in his life, and Zach knew he could never fully repay Yolanda for saving him. He even felt a powerful urge to drop to his knees right then and there to express his profound thanks to Yolanda.

Yolanda hadn't anticipated Zach getting so emotional. She quickly stepped forward to stop him before he could kneel.

"It's not that big of a deal," she said. "Besides, what would I even do with your life?"

Despite her family's legacy spanning a thousand years with strict hierarchies in her previous life, she had never been fond of such rigid traditions. She always treated those who served the Hoffman family with respect and never acted superior.

As her four brothers often said, the Hoffman family's strength had sustained their power for a millennium, not because they flaunted their authority or grandeur.

"But—" Zach was about to continue, but Yolanda cut him off.

"I won't hesitate to ask if I ever need your help in the future."

Riverdale City was new to her, and it made sense to build up some influence of her own.

"Alright, take this card." Zach pulled a gold card from his suit pocket. "This card gives you unrestricted access to the Wright Group headquarters and all its properties, free of charge. You can also make use of any of the Wright Group's resources and connections without needing my approval."

Worried that Yolanda might turn down the offer, he added, "You've done so much for me. I don't think I'll be able to sleep well at night

if you don't take this card."

"Alright, I'll take it," Yolanda said, accepting the Wright Group's gold card.

"Evan's out of danger now. I have other things to attend to, so I'll be heading out."

Zach escorted Yolanda out of the emergency room before quickly returning inside.

Yolanda headed back to Simon's ward and found him just finishing a landscape painting, with Gordon carefully applying his personal seal.

"Thank you, Mr. Carter! We'll leave you to rest now," Harold said, clearly pleased as he carefully held the painting in his hands. He had accomplished his goal and was excited to deliver the artwork to the general manager of the Doxcon Group.

"I'll be heading out as well. It's been an honor learning from you today, Mr. Carter. I hope I'll have the chance to learn from you again in the future!" Yvonne said politely as she rose and bid Simon

farewell.

What Yolanda did today ignited an unexpected sense of urgency in Yvonne. So, when she realized that Harold was heading off to meet a client, she opted to cut her conversation with Simon short and decided to join Harold instead.

Connecting with Harold's business associates was an opportunity she couldn't pass up.NôvelDrama.Org © content.
