“Let’s go and have lunch together.” After changing to their own clothes, Chen Zhao and Anderson walked out of the fitness center together.
“I can’t. I still have to go and fetch my son.”
“Alright. See you.”
Eating alone was the most boring thing ever. Chen Zhao called Fali and they had a romantic chat. Then, he went to buy a few burgers.
Because Normans wanted more exercise, Chen Zhao had to go there earlier.
Today, Normans was actually already in her sportswear, but she also had a jacket outside.
The slimming sessions over the last few days had consumed much of her fats. As a result, the skin on her belly looked extremely shriveled.
It would be very ugly to leave it exposed, so she had to hide it.
“Today’s exercise is cycling. We’ll go along the road by the sea, and then come back. The whole journey should take five hours,” Chen Zhao said. “Eat this apple first.”
When the two cycled out of the manor, Chen Zhao received a call.
“Chen, business for you.” It was Ethan.
“I’m at Mr. Doman’s place. I’m busy.”
“Big client.”
“How big?”
“Thirty thousand.”
Chen Zhao raised his eyebrows. Turning his head, he said, “Normans, we’re changing the route.”
“Asshole.” Normans had heard everything.
Given that the client could pay thirty thousand dollars, he or she was certainly quite wealthy.
Chen Zhao stopped before a magnificent villa and rang the doorbell.
The door opened slightly. Chen Zhao could tell from the gap through the door that it was a very beautiful lady.
The lady saw an Asian, a fat woman, and a dog outside her door.
“Who are you?”
“I’m the doctor from Ethan.”
“Then how about her?”
“She’s my assistant.”
“Bullshit. When did I become your assistant?” Normans did not cooperate with Chen Zhao at all.
“It’s her first day of work. She’s not used to it yet,” Chen Zhao said with a smile.
“Selena? You’re Selena Gofi?” Suddenly, Normans recognized the lady before her.
Chen Zhao was clearly stunned. “Do you know each other?”
“Normans?” Selena looked at the incredibly inflated woman before her, uncertain.
Selena did not know what Normans looked like a few days ago. If she did, she would be surprised at why Normans was so thin instead.
“Why are you…”
Selena and Normans were from the same college. She knew how wealthy Normans’ family was.
But why would the previously white, rich, and beautiful girl become so fat?
And she’s now an assistant for an illegal doctor?
Is her family bankrupt?
A smile appeared on Selena’s face. The golden phoenix had fallen, but she had become famous. Such an enormous twist in their lives made Selena excited for some reason.
“Come in.” Selena opened the door, displaying her luxurious house before the two. “Don’t walk around unnecessarily. My house is big and has many valuable items. If anything goes missing, I’ll call the police.”
Normans and Chen Zhao rolled their eyes at the same time. Glancing at Selena, Chen Zhao asked Normans softly, “Who’s she?”
“A small star in Hollywood. Acted in two movies before and only half-famous, but compared to most women in Hollywood, she’s already considered successful.”
Chen Zhao nodded and more or less understood what was going on.
“Ms. Selena, where’s my patient?”
Selena brought Chen Zhao and Normans to a room and pushed the door open.
Chen Zhao saw a maid covered in blood. It seemed like she had been bitten by some kind of beast in the abdomen.
Frowning, Chen Zhao walked up to check the maid’s injury.
The maid was indeed gravely injured and had signs of shock.
“What was she bitten by?” Chen Zhao inspected the wound on the maid’s abdomen. The flesh on her wound had almost been torn away completely.
Apart from treating the maid, Chen Zhao had to confirm what she had been bitten by, as well as whether the animal carried any bacteria or infections.
Many wild animals carried a multitude of pathogens because of their habits or environment.
Once they bit someone, the person might develop many complications or syndromes.
Inflammation was the weakest of them. The problem would be much more severe if there was a viral infection.
“Do you have ice?”
“Yes, I’ll go and take it.”
Selena took some ice cubes. Chen Zhao wrapped them with a piece of cloth and placed it on the maid’s forehead.
Then, he started cleaning the maid’s wound. Meanwhile, he turned his head and looked at Selena, “So what bit her?”
Selena remained silent, unwilling to talk about it.
Chen Zhao looked at Selena again. “Your maid will probably die. I suggest sending her to the hospital. Her body temperature is abnormally high. Maybe it’s because the animal that bit her has some disease and transmitted it to her.”
“No! You can’t send her to the hospital,” Selena rejected at once. “If the media finds out that my pet has caused my maid to be injured, I’ll be defamed by them.”
Selena was rather selfish. Of course, most people were like this.
Anyway, because her maid was bitten by her own pet, she could not run away from the responsibility.
Chen Zhao recalled the woman called Daily Simpson. She and her adopted daughter had been in a similar situation.
Nevertheless, her daughter had injured herself, so it was not really Daily’s fault.
Selena’s case was different. Her pet had bitten someone and hence, she was legally responsible.
“Now, either show me the pet that bit her and let me check if your pet has any diseases, or I’ll send your maid to the hospital,” Chen Zhao said.
“I can give you more money. Don’t tell anyone about it.”
Chen Zhao glanced at the Selena.
He indeed needed money, but if he kept this a secret, the maid would probably die, unless he could confirm that she had no viral infections.
“Wouter’s in the backyard,” Selena finally said very reluctantly.
Normans followed Chen Zhao to the backyard. They saw a near-adultray wolf which was apparently over forty kilograms in weight. He was fairly large.
Chen Zhao took a step forward. The wolf called Wouter stood near a corner, looking rather scared.
Standing behind them, Selena reminded, “Wouter doesn’t like strangers.”
Chen Zhao looked at Wouter and waved his hand gently.
Wouter stared hesitantly at Chen Zhao, after which he carefully walked towards Chen Zhao.
Normans was surprised. She knew that Chen Zhao had a high affinity for pets, but it was the first time she saw it at work. He was able to get close to a wolf the first time they met.
Selena was rather amazed too. Usually, nobody would dare to go close to Wouter like this.
As a result, Wouter had become somewhat aloof. He was very fierce towards anyone but her. However, Chen Zhao managed to easily friend Wouter.
