Riches in Disguise novel Chapter 61

After seeing Lina off, I initially wanted to head straight back to school and tell Felicia about it for a laugh. But then, I got a call from the hospital.

Jane's surgery was scheduled for this afternoon, and the doctor asked if I wanted to come by.

Of course, I had to go. She had no family around. If I didn't go, who would?

In the sterile ward, Jane was already dressed in her surgical gown and socks. She looked weighed down and uncomfortable as she curled up on the bed. Her gaze was blank, and it seemed like she was lost in thought.

I couldn't go inside, so I waved to her through the large glass window.

"William!" As soon as she saw me, her face lit up with a smile.

Though I couldn't hear her, I could tell she was calling my name by the shape of her lips. I made a bunch of encouraging hand gestures, and her smile grew even brighter.

"You're the patient's family, right? Can we talk?"

Just then, the doctor walked over and called me into the office. He went over the surgery and post-op care in detail.

Overall, the procedure was simpler than I expected. No surgery was needed. They just had to give her a bone marrow injection. However, whether it would succeed depended on the aftercare.

The surgical fees I paid earlier would be used up today, and aftercare was the real challenge. I understood what he was getting at—he wanted me to pay more.

Without hesitation, I said, "Give her the best treatment plan. I'll cover whatever it costs."

After we finished talking, I went ahead and paid another 20 thousand dollars.

Just as I was about to leave, I saw Joshua stepping out of the elevator. He was accompanied by a somewhat overweight woman in her 40s, dressed flamboyantly and adorned with jewelry on her neck and wrists.

The team suggested that I prepare for this eventuality.

This was our only business, and if the game shut down, the company would have to close with it. This was my first startup, and I didn't want it to end like this.

"Then let's get started on a new game right now!" I declared.

"This one doesn't have to be a charity project. We should focus on female college students and create games that are cute, visually appealing, easy to play, and genuinely fun. We can focus on travel games, fashion games, and dating games."

One employee quickly interjected, "Mr. White, we don't have any developers in our company."

Another added, "Yeah, we're all just game maintenance staff. We lack experience in game development and need someone to guide us.

"If you want to make a change, I suggest we hire more people right away. We can't manage this with just the few of us."
