Chapter 456: Confidence is Necessary
Victor pinched the bridge of his nose and responded in a deep voice, “Got it, I’ll try to restrain myself.”
Isaac sighed in relief and turned to walk towards Liam’s room. “Liam should be awake by now. Let’s go in and check on him. To be honest, you haven’t been here for so long, Liam will definitely be happy to see you.”
Victor followed, “I’ve been really busy lately.”
“Busy, but you still found time to follow Dr. Prescott to Sylvania City,” Isaac teased.
Victor’s expression darkened as he thought about what had happened in Sylvania City. “I had a project to handle there.”
Isaac smiled knowingly and said no more.
When they reached Liam’s room, Isaac raised his hand and knocked on the door. Hearing Liam’s voice from inside, he opened the door and walked in.
“Grandpa, Victor is here to see you,” Isaac said with a smile after entering.
Victor respectfully greeted Liam, “Mr. Whitaker.”
Liam had just woken up and was trying to sit up in bed.
Isaac quickly stepped forward to help him, while Victor picked up the water cup from the table, poured some water, and handed it to Liam.
Liam took a sip from the cup and looked at the people around his bed with a smile. “Isn’t the company busy?”
Victor nodded, “I have some free time these days, so I came to see you. How is your health?”
Liam replied with satisfaction, “Much better. But you young people should take care of your health and not just focus on work.”
Victor agreed, “I will, don’t worry.”
Isaac reminded softly, “Grandpa, Dr. Prescott is also here, waiting downstairs.”
Hearing that Olivia had arrived, Liam gave Isaac a reproachful look. “Why didn’t you say so earlier? Help me up.”
Isaac carefully helped Liam out of bed.
Downstairs, Olivia waited for a while. When she saw Liam coming down, she stood up respectfully and greeted him.
Liam waved his hand with a smile, “Sit down, no need to be so formal.”
Olivia waited until Liam was seated on the sofa before sitting down herself.
Isaac silently sat on the far side of Olivia, leaving the spot next to her for Victor.
Seeing Victor sit so close to her, Olivia pursed her lips slightly and moved a bit to put some distance between them.
Noticing her movement, Victor frowned in displeasure.
“The free clinic starts this weekend at the orphanage on the outskirts of town. How are your preparations?” Liam asked Olivia, unaware of the young people’s thoughts.
Olivia replied, “Almost ready. I’ve been studying materials on congenital diseases in children these past few days.”
Knowing that the Hargraves family’s free clinics in recent years have focused on children with congenital diseases, Olivia had specifically looked into past case studies and reviewed cases previously treated by the Hargraves family, gaining a lot of experience from them.
Liam smiled with satisfaction. “It seems you’ve put in a lot of effort. But don’t put too much pressure on yourself. After all, you are Benjamin’s student, you should have confidence in yourself.”
Olivia nodded obediently.
Liam then looked at Isaac and instructed, “Go get my recommendation letter from the drawer in the study upstairs.”
Isaac agreed and went upstairs. Before leaving, he cast a worried glance at Victor, afraid that his brother might clash with Olivia again while he was gone.
