Wife You Discarded is a Billionaire's Crush novel Chapter 190

"Dr. Sterling, my son will be in your care from now on…"

He had asked someone to get in touch with Jude, and after Jude was replaced, he had proactively contacted Chuck to inform him of the situation.

Jude's assessment of Leroy was fair—he didn't know where he came from, but he was clearly very skilled.

So, Chuck was content to let Leroy treat Hale.

"How much?" Leroy released his hand, eyeing the card with interest.

Chuck was speechless.

He had given Jude money too—two thousand dollars. But business had been getting worse, and he didn't have that much to spare anymore.

He made a gesture with his hand. "Six hundred."

"And how exactly do you want me to take care of your son?" Leroy toyed with the card, looking thoughtful. "Should I give him an extra six hundred dollars' worth of oxygen?"

Hearing this, Vida whispered to Chuck, "Honey, I think he's saying it's not enough."

Chuck patted his pockets, reluctant to pull out any more cash.

His eyes landed on Liliana.

Liliana was rubbing her elbow, which was sore from being pushed, when Chuck suddenly grabbed her arm.

He dragged her in front of Leroy.

"Doctor, whatever you want, ask my daughter. She has plenty of money."

Leroy's expression toward the Prestons soured. "There's nothing more for you to do here. You can go home. I need to speak with Miss Preston."

Fearing he would ask for more money and that Liliana would throw the hot potato back to him, Chuck grabbed Vida and bolted.

As long as Hale's life wasn't in danger, that was all that mattered!

Liliana stood stiffly, looking at Leroy with unease. "Dr. Sterling, I don't make a high salary. You…"

"Here." Leroy pressed the card into Liliana's hand. "I heard from Dr. Brooks that you're not only deeply involved in your brother's condition but have also taken on all the medical bills and everything else. It must be tough. I don't want money. As a physician, my only goal is to save lives."
