CChapter 345<\/p>\n
\u201cMay I ask if you\u2019re from Yasvissa? The question made Cherise use mid\u2013step. Out of sight from Eugene, a subtle smile curved her lips. Turning slowly, she replied, \u201cHow did you know I\u2019m from Yasvissa, Dr. Garela?\u201d<\/p>\n
Eugene shook his head, flashing a bright smile. \u201cI didn\u2019t. I was just asking casually\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise\u2019s eyes sparkled with a hint of mischief as she spoke agai \u201cIt seems Mr. Garcia must have mentioned something abo<\/p>\n
ut Yasvissa to you. hasn\u2019t he?\u201d<\/p>\n
Eugene, who appeared young and handsome, froze for a mome. He felt that Cherise certainly knew how to strike when the opportunity arose. She asked so suddenly that he wasn\u2019t sure how to respond.<\/p>\n
As a doctor, he couldn\u2019t lie, but if he said yes, he might make things more complicated.<\/p>\n
Cherise noticed his hesitation. She recalled how he had interacted with the elderly people earlier and thought that he seemed like a truly kind\u2013hearted person. Therefore, she pressed on, \u201cMr. Garcia is still alive, right?\u201d<\/p>\n
This time, Eugene had no choice but to answer truthfully, considering the question was about a person\u2019s life.<\/p>\n
He nodded toward Cherise. \u201cYes, he\u2019s still alive.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise raised an eyebrow, clearly satisfied with the answer. \u201cCould you introduce me to him? I really am from Yasvissa, and I\u2019m here only to ask Mr. Garcia about my grandmother\u2019s past, something from decades ago.<\/p>\n
Beyond that, I have no other business and won\u2019t disturb him again.\u201d<\/p>\n
Eugene sighed, lowering his head as he fell into thought. He knew Carson had carried a knot in his heart for years, a knot tied to Yasvissa, and he couldn\u2019t bear to see him suffer.<\/p>\n
He knew Carson had lived so many years with this burden. And for some reason, looking at Cherise, Eugene felt that perhaps she was the one who could untangle that knot.<\/p>\n
He sighed once more, saying, \u201cAlright, come with me,\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise flashed a grin. \u201cThank you so much!\u201d<\/p>\n
They stepped out of the clinic, and Eugene locked the door, hanging the \u201cTemporarily Closed\u201d sign. The three people still standing by the car straightened when they saw Cherise and Eugene walk out<\/p>\n
Eugene turned to them and pointed. \u201cAre they with you!\u201d From the moment he laid eyes on Cherise, he knew there was more to her.<\/p>\n
Cherise nodded in response. \u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cGreat. Let\u2019s take your car. Walking will take us over half an hour, and I\u2019m afraid it\u2019ll be too much of a hassle, Eugene said.<\/p>\n
Cherise didn\u2019t refuse because she was eager to meet Carson as soon as possible. \u201cAlright, Hugh, get in. Let\u2019s follow Dr. Garcia\u2019s directions.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hugh, aware that Cherise had urgent matters to attend to, didn\u2019t hesitate. \u201cGot it! Dr. Garcia, please take the front seat.\u201d<\/p>\n
They went off, with Dr. Garcia leading the way.<\/p>\n
Crow was the type of person who couldn\u2019t keep his mouth shut. When he saw Eugene, he immediately started asking questions. \u201cAre you Dr. Garcia?<\/p>\n
\u201cI was just standing outside your clinic, and I overheard a lot of people saying you don\u2019t charge for consultations, not even<\/p>\n
Chapter 345<\/p>\n
for the medicine. That\u2019s so kind of you. How do you make a living?<\/p>\n
Eugene, having finished giving directions, turned around to respond to Crow\u2019s question. It\u2019s alright. I still have some property back home, so I get rental income?<\/p>\n
Crow noticed the somewhat unfriendly look from Cherise and quickly shrank back. \u201cOh, so you\u2019re a landlord. Fine, never mind.\u201d he added, then turned to Cherise and shut up.<\/p>\n
After giving directions at the next intersection. Engene said to Cherise, \u201cBy the way, I haven\u2019t asked what your name is Your probably still have more questions for me, don\u2019t you?\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise, sitting elegantly in the second row with one leg crossed over the other, smirked. \u201cYou can just call me Ms. Leach\u201d<\/p>\n
Eugene chuckled, thinking. This girl is quite interesting:<\/p>\n
Cherise leaned forward slightly. \u201cCould you tell me what your relationship with Mr. Garcia is?\u201d<\/p>\n
Eugene smiled, his tone turning a bit nostalgic. \u201cHe\u2019s my mentor, and he taught me everything about medicine. He even took me in when I had nowhere else to go. If it weren\u2019t for him, I would have been dead.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe clinic is his legacy and it was him running it all these years. However, as he\u2019s gotten older, I\u2019ve taken over.<\/p>\n
The idea of offering free consultations for widows, orphans, the elderly, and the sick was his idea when he opened this clinic. That was over thirty years ago.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cherise listened to him, her gaze drifting out the window. She felt a deep respect for Carson even though she never met<\/p>\n
him<\/p>\n
After a fifteen\u2013minute drive, Eugene called out, and Hugh pulled over.<\/p>\n
They got out of the car. Crow looked at the lively street with identical buildings lining both sides and commented, \u201cWow, I didn\u2019t know there was such a prosperous area in Larkston. This street is nice. Maybe we should come back later and hang around.<\/p>\n
\u201cTenderHeart Avenue? The name is the same as your clinic. Interesting.\u201d.<\/p>\n
Eugene glanced at Crow and replied coolly, \u201cOh, this whole street is Mr. Garcia\u2019s property. We collect rent from here. Plus, the shopping centers up ahead share the same name. Let\u2019s go in through there.<\/p>\n
Eugene spoke as though it were the most ordinary thing in the world, leading Cherise ahead. Crow, Hugh, and Zander stood frozen for a moment, feeling shocked.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat was such a humble way to put it! The entire street, plus a few shopping centers? Is everyone in Larkston this low\u2013key?\u201d One of them murmured.<\/p>\n
