Tom asked in confusion, "What investigation? Does Nara Gill have any ties to the Gill family?"
Their overseas acquisition of the Gill family was fraught with hidden dangers.
After all, they never stirred up trouble domestically.
If they acquired the Gill family, they wouldn't have enough human resources to manage it. The best solution would still be to find a way to turn Keira and the Gill family from foes into friends.
However, Lewis casually answered, "Just look into Nara and Matias Gill, and then assign someone to protect them."
Tom twitched the corner of his mouth. "Boss, you are... Is it because Miss Olsen has a good relationship with them? Alright then... Oh, by the way, it seems like the second branch of the Horton family is stirring up trouble again."
Lewis responded indifferently, "As long as Grandma is fine, the fate of that entire family has nothing to do with me."
"Roger that!"
After that, Tom noticed that his boss was unusually talkative today, so he couldn't help asking, "By the way, about that overseas project..."
He hadn't finished his sentence when Lewis interrupted him, "Since I've entrusted these matters to you, you can take full responsibility for them. I am busy."
Tom was shocked.
No... He thought, "The overseas business has great power and so many issues every day, and you ignore them all to make phone calls about acquiring the Gill family and protecting two laymen... What are you so busy with?!"
Perhaps Lewis heard the complaints in Tom's head, and his lips curved into a slight smile. "I'm busy driving for my wife."
Tom was dumbfounded.
After hanging up, Lewis turned and entered the room to see Keira sleeping in the same position.
She must have been exhausted; there were beads of sweat on her forehead.
Lewis approached her and gently wiped the sweat from her face. He then went to the bathroom, dampened a towel, and brought it over to wipe her body.
In her sleep, Keira felt refreshed. She turned over, found a comfortable position, and slept even more soundly.
...
At Nara's home.
Nara tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep.
Without a job the next day, she didn't want to worry her brother by telling him, so she hadn't yet thought of a way to cope.
Someone who had barely slept looked haggard when they got up in the morning.
Matias was still hobbling with a cane and had made breakfast for her. As she sat down to eat, he looked at her and asked, "Why do you look so pale? Were you too tired yesterday?"
Nara nodded and gestured with her hands. "I'm too busy. I have to go!"
She put down her bowl and left the house.
However, once outside, she had no idea where to go and could only walk to the nearby park and sit on the bench.
She hung her head low.
Without an internship experience, graduating from a medical major was impossible.
But if she couldn't graduate, she would never have a medical license, and thus, she could never be a doctor.
She looked at her wrist, her eyes filling with sadness.
Was she destined to be separated from the medical field forever?
No...
She couldn't just accept this fate!
Thinking this way, Nara picked up her phone and sent resumes to various hospitals.
She had always been a stubborn and strong girl...
After she sent resumes to a few companies, her phone suddenly rang, and she eagerly picked it up. A voice came from the other side, "Nara, right? We're from the hospital. You don't need to take all this trouble sending resumes. Let me tell you, the Gill family has announced publicly that no hospital will hire you... "
Upon hearing this, a flash of shock and anger passed through Nara's eyes.
After hanging up, she clenched her fists tightly.
A tear formed in her eyes.
How could this be...
How could her mother and brother be so cruel?
She would never forgive them! Never!!
Holding her head, she started to cry.
After crying for a long time, Nara suddenly looked up. There was one hospital to which she hadn't sent a resume yet!
And that was the Nora Research Institute!
But... the Nora Research Institute had never recruited interns, so she had never sent a resume.
Could she, perhaps, give it a try?
Nara looked at her phone, swallowed, and, mustering all her courage, sent her resume to the Nora Research Institute's email address.
Then she waited anxiously for a reply.
Time seemed to drag on before her phone suddenly burst into life.
Nara excitedly picked it up, only to hear Jackson's voice. "Hahaha! Nara, I heard you've been sending out internship resumes everywhere. You can't even land an intern position, can you? This is the price you ought to pay!"
Nara bit her lip hard.
Jackson immediately said, "It's all Austin and Lady Gill's doing. They want to see you disgraced, unable to find work for the rest of your life, and paying the price for your actions! Nara! Just you wait!"
Nara's eyes began to water.
Jackson immediately added. "And I've heard you sent a resume to the Nora Research Institute. Hahaha, haven't I already told you? We control the medical system, and I've posted your resume on your school's intranet. You've become a laughingstock!"
Hearing this, Nara immediately opened the school's intranet.
She saw her email posted there, followed by a string of mocking comments.
— Seriously? The Nora Research Institute never hires undergraduate students. Nara is overestimating herself, right?
— This is bad. Nara is making our school look bad, isn't she?
— She wouldn't think she's so great just because she's first in her courses, would she?
— Oh my God, I feel so ashamed!
— Me too!
— Will the Nora Research Institute have a negative impression of our school now?
— What is Nara doing?!
...
...
Line after line of comments struck Nara as if the world was spinning!
It was just an attempt when she sent her resume, but this public humiliation filled her with rage!
She clenched her fists tightly and burst into tears again.
Why?
Why were the Gills doing this to her? Just because she was poor? How could they be so malicious?
After crying for who knows how long, her phone suddenly vibrated. It seemed she had received a message.
