    He slowly tuned his eyes to Elijah.


    Elijah pressed his lips and repeated, "You''vete"


    Thomas exined, just got off the operating table,"


    The air between the two was a bit still


    Cameron quickly chimed in, "Mr. Thomas Moore, you should take a rest first. My business isn''t urgent"


    Thomas then looked at Cameron and said, "You''re Ell''s ssmate. Nice to meet you."


    Cameron nodded. "Nice to meet you too."


    Thomas stared at Cameron for a few seconds and said, "Cam, right? You have a great bone structure. You could be a cosmetic surgery model. But your facial features are a bit delicate. If you were a girl, you''d be very beautiful.”


    Elijah said, "Dad, Cameron isn''t here for cosmetic surgery." He thought, ''What does Dad mean by "if Cameron were a girl"? Cameron is very handsome de aboy!


    Thomas took a sip of coffee and smiled, "Sorry, my professional habit kicked in." Ejah said to Cameron, "That''s just how my dad is. He looks at people''s faces first. Don''t mind."

    Sure enough, Thomas went on. "Cam, most things are flexible, but pharmaceuticals involve human lives. We can''t afford even a tiny mistake."


    The Moore family''s medical business covered everything-stic surgery, gender surgeries, private hospitals, and nursing homes. The Moore name wa – well- known


    The bigger they got, the more careful Thomas had to be. After all, tall trees catch the wind.

    But actual partnership? Probably not happening.


    Cameron said, "I totally get what you''re saying, Mr. Thomas Moore. But maybe hold off on shutting this down just yet."


    Thomas eyed her inscrutably, waiting for her to continue


    She said, "I heard about you ending the partnership with the Young family, M. Thomas Manne You''re a doctor with real backbone an exactly why I want to work with you. The truth is, I''ve got other options on the table."
