Chapter 685

Emily, from a family of doctors, was unwilling to show her face but willing to help Lily with her illness. Alexander suddenly had a bold guess; could Emily be Elizabeth? He then quickly stopped the car. When he opened the car door and looked back, he saw that person getting into a black RV. The RV quickly drove away, so Alexander couldn’t see the license plate number. He hurriedly got back into the car to chase it, but after exiting the underground garage, he couldn’t see it anymore on the crowded street.

“Damn it, that scared the hell out of me,” Elizabeth said, looking back at the car, her forehead covered in sweat. She had planned to go home, but she happened to run into Alexander in the elevator. Hearing him talking to Nolan about her, she was very scared.

“It’s good that I came in time,” Felix’s voice came from the driver’s seat.

Elizabeth looked over and said, “Yes. Now he should think I’m just a celebrity. He probably won’t suspect me.”

“Boss, seriously, you took too much of a risk,” Felix frowned.

Elizabeth knew it well. But she had to take care of Lily’s condition. Given the situation last night, how could she not show up?

“I had no choice,” Elizabeth looked out the window. After a whole night of work, the sky was already bright. She felt both tired and hungry. But when she was in the emergency room, she didn’t feel tired or exhausted at all.

She pondered, “You know, what is a doctor’s duty? Isn’t it to save lives and help the injured to the best of their ability?” Elizabeth lowered her head, thinking about what Alexander had said in the elevator.

“Nolan, don’t you think she’s deceiving you?”

She apparently didn’t mean that. The reason she didn’t want to show her face was because her energy was limited. Everyone in the world knew how amazing Emily was, but there was only one Emily, and she couldn’t be everywhere. Rather than giving everyone hope, it was better not to. But once someone actively sought her out, regardless of the reward, even if there was no reward, Elizabeth would do her best to treat them.

“I’m so hungry, Felix,” Elizabeth said softly, closing her eyes.

Felix laughed. “I knew you’d be hungry.” Then he handed the breakfast he had bought to her. He had prepared it long ago, just waiting for her to say she was hungry. Elizabeth was a bit surprised.

“You’re always so thoughtful,” Elizabeth said, taking a sip of coffee, “Just take me to the research institute.”

After eating, Elizabeth felt full of energy.

“You should go home and rest,” Felix frowned.

“I’m very busy,” Elizabeth said seriously.

“And you still want to take care of Lily. Elizabeth, you really don’t take care of yourself!” Felix’s voice grew louder.

Elizabeth looked at him in surprise. He actually dared to raise his voice and call her by her name? Elizabeth quickly smacked him on the head. “Who gave you the nerve to talk to me like that?”

What! Felix raised his head and snorted.

Elizabeth pouted. “I will take good care of myself.”

“Really? You only make people worry. No, you must go back and rest.” Felix refused to take her to the research institute. She had spent the whole night in the emergency room and now wanted to go to the research institute, where he was really afraid she would collapse.
