After a moment's pause, as if a lightbulb went off in her head, Lila exclaimed, "I knew it! You must have kept evidence of Caroline stealing your 'Targeted Radiotherapy Drug for Cancer' manuscript three years ago! I knew I was right to believe in you, Georgia!"
Georgia fell silent.
Hearing Lila's excited voice, Georgia just couldn't bear to tell her the truth that she had no evidence.
"Georgia, thank goodness you still have that evidence! Otherwise, you'd have walked right into her trap and handed yourself over on a silver platter!"
Georgia fell silent.
Medical Association Headquarters
Caroline sat in front of her computer, gloating as she watched the online traffic soar and the flood of polarized comments, some fawning over her, others tearing down Georgia.
This was the most buzz her special-effect drug launch had ever generated. Using Georgia as a publicity stunt was clearly paying off big time.
"Kendall, keep buying hype. We must maximize the publicity and impact of this year's launch auction."
Caroline refused to fade into obscurity in the medical world after her moment in the spotlight. She was determined to completely turn the tables at this auction.
Kendall was just as excited. At her direction, the Medical Association had been strategically releasing news for a whole month, but nothing came close to the impact of the official announcement about Georgia's participation—just one hour after it dropped, the online engagement was off the charts. With this level of hype, there's no way this auction wouldn't go viral.
Georgia was still busy planning her next steps for the sanatorium when there was a gentle knock at her office door.
"Come in!" she called out.
She had just arrived at the sanatorium. Other than Henry, she couldn't imagine who else would come to see her at this hour.
As the door swung open, a graceful and dignified woman in her late fifties entered, her face beaming with a warm and kindly smile.
For some inexplicable reason, Georgia felt an instant connection with the elderly lady the moment their eyes met.
As the door opened, the elderly lady froze at the sight of Georgia. Her gaze fixed on Georgia, unblinking, and in that instant, a glimmer of tears welled up in her eyes.
After a long pause, Georgia frowned slightly and asked, "Madam, what can I do for you?"
Hearing this, the old lady finally regained her composure, gave a slightly embarrassed smile, and said, "My child, you must be Georgia. Phillip always talks about you."
'Phillip?' Georgia wondered to herself.
"Are you Mrs. Crawford?" Georgia asked.
No sooner had Georgia finished her question than the old lady suddenly rushed over, grasping Georgia's hands tightly in her own, and exclaimed excitedly, "Oh, yes! Phillip has mentioned me to you…"
Georgia was completely overwhelmed by the old lady's warmth, but to her surprise, she didn't mind it at all.
"Oh, has Mr. Crawford moved in? I'll go check on him."
"No rush, no rush. The transfer to the new hospital really wore out that old body. He just fell asleep not long ago. Child, all these years… it's truly thanks to you that his health has held up…"
The elderly lady clung tightly to Georgia's hands, refusing to let go.
The old lady gazed at Georgia's face with admiration, but as soon as she finished speaking, the glimmer of tears in her eyes grew even brighter. "My dear, what a wonderful girl you are..."
Georgia felt a bit awkward. She couldn't shake the feeling that the elderly lady's emotions were a bit off.
"My dear, have you eaten yet? My housekeeper will be bringing my meal over shortly. I've asked her to bring an extra portion for you too..."
Seeing the woman's overwhelming enthusiasm, Georgia gave an awkward smile and said, "Mrs. Crawford, please don't trouble yourself. The staff cafeteria provides meals. I'll just eat there."
"Mr. Crawford's recovery is progressing well, so it's important to ensure he gets adequate nutrition. However, since he'll be undergoing surgery in a few days, we need to carefully monitor his caloric intake."
With these professional instructions, Georgia gracefully eased the awkwardness.
"Alright, alright, I'll pay close attention. My dear, you go ahead with your work. I'll come back to see you later…"
The old woman took her leave, but kept turning back, her eyes fixed on Georgia until she had completely exited the office, leaving Georgia utterly baffled.
After she left, Georgia could only shake her head helplessly and soon put the matter out of her mind.
The next few days, Georgia was busy with work at the sanatorium and preparing for Phillip. Aside from David's frequent "coincidental" encounters and his constant efforts at forcing his presence on her, life remained relatively peaceful.
But by now, the internet was already in an uproar.
