My Ex-Wife Remarried Me -
Chapter 136: Quarreling Like A Couple
"Hm, not bad. Are you going to give me all of that?"
"No way! I can only get an advance for six months! I need money to live too, don't you know? Just give me your bank account number and I'll transfer the fee for one semester to you first," Amora said, her joy from earlier disappearing into thin air.
What the hell is he thinking? I can't give him everything at once? He'd be better off rob the banks if he wants so much money at once! He's such a sly business man! Luckily for her, that scumbag was feeling rather generous that day.
He sent her his bank account number through text and said, "Oh, remember to pick up the kids later."
"Why aren't you going?"she asked instinctively.
Kane swirled the coffee around in his cup and grinned.
"Aren't you their mother?"
"Aren't you their father? Why don't you go then!"
"I'm busy!"
"As though I'm not!" Amora retorted."Listen up, Kane.now that I have a job, we need to split up the work.
I'll pick them up on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, and you'll pick them up on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. That's it. See you."
She hung up before he could say anything in protest.
Seething with anger, Kane almost threw his cup of coffee onto the ground.
Kylo watched from afar with a wide grin on his face.
That's what you get for kicking up a fuss over a million when your net worth is already well over a hundred billion? Serves you right, Boss! Amora was not lying when she said that she was busy. Just seconds after she ended the call, several doctors had already surrounded her in a tight circle.
"Dr.Esme! Are you the legendary doctor from Clear? I must be dreaming!"
"Welcome to the internal medicine department, Dr.Esme!"
"Do you mind if I consult you on this patient's condition, Dr.Esme?"
The doctors were excited to meet their idol, and none of them were going to leave her alone anytime soon.
Sighing, she had no choice but to stay and talk to them.
"Sure.I specialize in TCM, though. I'm not sure what I can bring to the table in terms of Western medicine."
"That's alright! We're badly in need of TCM practitioners in this hospital anyway."
"That's right, Dr.Esme! Many of our patients have actually requested TCM treatment, especially the older and the richer ones."
"Like the ones in the nursing home?"
Someone whispered something about a nursing home in the crowd, and everyone fell silent immediately.
Amora glanced at the young nurse who said that.
Nursing home? This hospital has a nursing home? She smiled at the nurse.
"There's a nursing home here? Does it belong to us?"
Amora had learned to be smart when talking to people after going through hell and back in the past five years.
Hence, she addressed the hospital and its staff as 'us' reignited the enthusiasm amongst the crowd.
"That's right. Only the rich ones stay there."
"Yeah! By the way, the hospital promised to reward whoever cures them of their ailments handsomely!"
Amora's ears perked up at the sound of that.
She would be completely broke after transferring her savings and the salary the hospital gave her in advance, and nothing sounded more enticing than the promise of a reward. "Oh, really? Can you bring me there tomorrow?"
"Sure, Dr.Esme! I'm sure you'll be able to help them!"
The doctors and nurses cheered in unison, and it brought a smile to Amora's face too.
Two hours later, the time came to pick the kids up from school.
Kane glanced at his watch and sighed as he got up from his desk and headed towards the carpark.
"Are you going to pick up the kids from school, Mr.Ronin?"
Kylo asked as he walked into the office with a huge stack of documents in his arms.
"Yes."
"Are you coming back later?"
Before the incident with Matteo, Kane never appeared at the preschool as four-thirty in the afternoon was too inconvenient a time for him to leave his office. Instead, he would send his bodyguards over to pick the kids up.
However, ever since Matteo's incident and their reconciliation, Kane realized that his kids were not invulnerable to the sketchy plots of others.
From then on, he took it upon himself to pick up the kids every day, even going as far as using fingerprint recognition to ensure that his kids were safe. "Yeah, I'll be back soon,' Kane said, glancing at his watch again.
Pick up the kids at four-thirty, get home by five-thirty, come back here by six...that stupid woman should be home by then! He left the office soon after. He was already factoring in Amora and the kids' presence in his life whenever he made decisions, but his mind was too occupied to realize that.
