Chapter 757 You've Finally Come!
Seeing his mother getting angry, Matt quickly tried to pacify her. "Mom, listen to me. I've already started arranging this matter, so you can rest assured."
"Rest assured? How can I rest assured?!" Helen shouted angrily.
"I already had one foot in the grave, yet you can't even lower your head to Dr. Nicholson for my sake?! He is a great healer who can cure paralyzed patients! Is it so embarrassing for you to kneel to him?!"
"Mom! There's a lot more to this situation that you don't understand!" Matt's temper flared up too. "And besides, I am the president of the Roseland Chamber of Commerce! How can I kneel to a barely legal kid?! What dignity would I have left?!"
The wrinkles on Helen's face trembled. "Is your dignity so important that your mother's life is beneath it?! Haven't you always wanted me to write a will, leaving all the Fox Family's assets to you and not your sister? Do you think I will give you your sister's share of the assets when you can't even handle such a small matter?!"
Matt's expression changed abruptly. Though everyone knew in their hearts that he wanted the elder to write a will that would benefit him to the fullest, no one had ever openly talked about it.
After all, talking about money could damage relationships, and everyone maintained a tacit understanding about it.
He and Nicholas might have taunted Megan about being interested in the family's wealth, but that was all in jest.
Yet now, Helen was speaking about it so openly. It was evident how angry she had become!
Matt's countenance shifted multitudes before his tone softened. "Mom, what are you saying? Compared to the Fox Family's assets, of course, I'd much rather see you healthy and live a long life! I've already started dealing with Nicholson. It won't be long before he'll come to you voluntarily, begging to treat you!"
To his dismay, Helen became even more furious instead of feeling relieved. "You still want to deal with Dr. Nicholson?!" Cough, cough, cough, cough…
She coughed in anger, and between coughs and wheezes, she said, "You… really know… how to piss me off…"
Just then, there came a knock at the door, and Kingsley immediately entered the ward. NôvelDrama.Org content.
Upon entering, Kingsley greeted with a smile, "Oh, who managed to get you so worked up, Old Mrs. Fox?"
"Dr. Nicholson?!" Helen instantly became excited upon seeing Kingsley. "Dr. Nicholson, you've finally come!"
Kingsley hadn't appeared at Hill Crest Hospital in the past few days
Helen had asked her son if he could get in touch with Kingsley. However, Matt always vaguely assured her that they would be able to reach him soon.
In reality, during that time, he was busy planning Nicholas' engagement with Mia and securing the Wynns' power to later pressure Kingsley.
Later, their plan failed, and Matt started conspiring with John and Felix to target Alice. So, despite Helen's deep concern, she couldn't get any news about Kingsley at all.
Now that Kingsley was finally before her eyes, her excitement made her forget about being angry with Matt.
She just wanted Kingsley to cure her illness as soon as possible!
"Old Mrs. Fox, how have you been recently?" Kingsley smiled gently. "Patients with heart conditions should avoid anger. Who dared to provoke your anger like this?"
At that, Helen shot a glare at Matt and said to Kingsley, "Dr. Nicholson, my health has been deteriorating day by day lately. I have no strength left in my body. If you don't treat me soon, I'm afraid I won't last much longer…"
Kingsley sat down on the chair next to her bed nonchalantly and said, "Haven't we already made an agreement? I will use my skills to cure you once President Fox kneels and apologizes to me. Surely, you wouldn't lack the spirit of honoring contractual obligations when you manage the largely influential Fox Family, would you, Old Mrs. Fox?"
