Chapter 614 Unnecessary Trouble
“Sir Lloyd, if you need it, I can open a branch in New York for you. Then patients with appointments to see Cora can directly visit the clinic there,” said Byron.
He didn’t want Cora to stay in Leucrest Town for too long.
This place held memories of her past with Jerry, and it was also Jerry’s home.
He feared that staying here might cause unnecessary trouble, especially considering the hostile look John had been giving him since earlier.
So he wanted to leave here with Cora and Martin as soon as
possible.
John’s expression suddenly became meaningful.
Instead of directly addressing Byron, he looked at Cora and asked, “What do you think?”
“Of course, I’ll help take your shift to see patients. You can take these few days to rest.”
Cora smiled and made a fresh cup of coffee for John.
She had become accustomed to the fact that John would take about thirty days off every month from his work if possible.

John was pleased that Cora readily agreed without hesitation.
“Good. Next weekend is my birthday. Don’t forget to come to the banquet.”
John rarely celebrated his birthday in such a grand manner, but this time, he did it to accommodate someone, his grandson.
“Alright, then I’ll go in advance to assist. By the way, would you like to try the improved formula for rheumatism? I promise that it won’t taste bitter,” Cora said.
“Yes, I do, if it’s really not bitter.”
Cora and John continued to chat aimlessly, and John also invited William and Sara to attend the banquet.
“Martin, you and your grandparents are coming too, okay?”
Martin nodded happily, and Sara and William also responded
with a smile.
Finally, John turned to Byron and invited him as well. “Mr. Hansen, you are also welcome if you are free.”
As expected, Byron’s eyes had nothing within but coldness.
Nevertheless, he maintained a polite and calm demeanor. “Alright, I’ll come if I’m free.”
Afterward, Cora chatted and laughed with John for a long time

before finally bidding farewell to the Lloyd Mansion with reluctance.
With John’s request, Cora spent the following week continuously seeing patients at the medical clinic.
During this time, Sara took the initiative to help look after Martin, worried that Cora might exhaust herself trying to balance work and caring for Martin.
Meanwhile, William returned to New York because the Yoris family was hosting a charity gala at the end of the month, and he needed to prepare the guest list and the auction items.
As for Byron…
He almost wanted to transfer all his work to Leucrest Town.
Even if there were urgent matters in New York that required his presence, he would return to Leucrest Town the same day.
On this evening, he had just received an urgent call from Carter asking him to New York.
He made time in his schedule to make a video call to Cora.
But when the call was connected, he remained silent for a while, gazing deeply at her through the screen.
Seeing his tired face, Cora finally said, “What’s wrong with you?”
“There’s too much going on today, and I won’t be able to come
Chapter 614 Unnecessary Trouble see you tonight,” he replied.
Cora understood that he meant he might not make it to Leucrest Town tonight.
“Never mind. I don’t care,” Cora said nonchalantly.
Byron seemed to have been flying constantly this week.
Even if he wasn’t tired, she felt exhausted just watching him.
But he retorted, “You don’t care, really? Then why were you holding my hand so tightly last night?”
His voice turned husky, and his gaze became intense.
Cora could feel her cheeks burning even if there was a screen between them.
Byron was referring to last night when he had woken her up while Sara was asleep, and the two of them had almost gotten carried away in the car.
“I’ll hang up. There are patients waiting for me,” Cora said decisively and ended the video call.
Little did she know that when she finished work and returned home, she would see a familiar figure waiting downstairs…
