CChapter 345

"May | ask if you're from Yasvissa? The question made Cherise use mid-step. Out of sight from Eugene, a subtle

smile curved her lips. Turning slowly, she replied, "How did you know I'm from Yasvissa, Dr. Garela?" Eugene

shook his head, flashing a bright smile. "I didn't. | was just asking casually"

Cherise's eyes sparkled with a hint of mischief as she spoke agai "It seems Mr. Garcia must have mentioned

something abo

ut Yasvissa to you. hasn't he?"

Eugene, who appeared young and handsome, froze for a mome. He felt that Cherise certainly knew how to strike

when the opportunity arose. She asked so suddenly that he wasn't sure how to respond. As a doctor, he couldn't

lie, but if he said yes, he might make things more complicated.

Cherise noticed his hesitation. She recalled how he had interacted with the elderly people earlier and thought

that he seemed like a truly kind-hearted person. Therefore, she pressed on, "Mr. Garcia is still alive, right?" This

time, Eugene had no choice but to answer truthfully, considering the question was about a person's life.

He nodded toward Cherise. "Yes, he's still alive."

Cherise raised an eyebrow, clearly satisfied with the answer. "Could you introduceto him? | really am from

Yasvissa, and I'm here only to ask Mr. Garcia about my grandmother's past, something from decades ago.

Beyond that, | have no other business and won't disturb him again."

Eugene sighed, lowering his head as he fell into thought. He knew Carson had carried a knot in his heart for

years, a knot tied to Yasvissa, and he couldn't bear to see him suffer.

He knew Carson had lived so many years with this burden. And for sreason, looking at Cherise, Eugene felt

that perhaps she was the one who could untangle that knot.

He sighed once more, saying, "Alright, cwith me,"

Cherise flashed a grin. "Thank you so much!"

They stepped out of the clinic, and Eugene locked the door, hanging the "Temporarily Closed" sign. The three

people still standing by the car straightened when they saw Cherise and Eugene walk out Eugene turned to them

and pointed. "Are they with you!" From the moment he laid eyes on Cherise, he knew there was more to her.

Cherise nodded in response. "Yes."

"Great. Let's take your car. Walking will take us over half an hour, and I'm afraid it'll be too much of a hassle,

Eugene said.

Cherise didn't refuse because she was eager to meet Carson as soon as possible. "Alright, Hugh, get in. Let's

follow Dr. Garcia's directions."

Hugh, aware that Cherise had urgent matters to attend to, didn't hesitate. "Got it! Dr. Garcia, please take the

front seat."

They went off, with Dr. Garcia leading the way.

Crow was the type of person who couldn't keep his mouth shut. When he saw Eugene, he immediately started

asking questions. "Are you Dr. Garcia?

"I was just standing outside your clinic, and | overheard a lot of people saying you don't charge for consultations,

not even

Chapter 345

for the medicine. That's so kind of you. How do you make a living?

Eugene, having finished giving directions, turned around to respond to Crow's question. It's alright. | still have

sproperty back home, so | get rental income?

Crow noticed the somewhat unfriendly look from Cherise and quickly shrank back. "Oh, so you're a landlord.

Fine, never mind." he added, then turned to Cherise and shut up.

After giving directions at the next intersection. Engene said to Cherise, "By the way, | haven't asked what your

nis Your probably still have more questions for me, don't you?"

Cherise, sitting elegantly in the second row with one leg crossed over the other, smirked. "You can just call me

Ms. Leach"

Eugene chuckled, thinking. This girl is quite interesting:

Cherise leaned forward slightly. "Could you tellwhat your relationship with Mr. Garcia is?"

Eugene smiled, his tone turning a bit nostalgic. "He's my mentor, and he taughteverything about medicine.

He even tookin when | had nowhere else to go. If it weren't for him, | would have been dead.

"The clinic is his legacy and it was him running it all these years. However, as he's gotten older, I've taken over.

The idea of offering free consultations for widows, orphans, the elderly, and the sick was his idea when he

opened this clinic. That was over thirty years ago."

Cherise listened to him, her gaze drifting out the window. She felt a deep respect for Carson even though she

never met

him

After a fifteen-minute drive, Eugene called out, and Hugh pulled over.

They got out of the car. Crow looked at the lively street with identical buildings lining both sides and commented,

"Wow, | didn't know there was such a prosperous area in Larkston. This street is nice. Maybe we should come

back later and hang around. "TenderHeart Avenue? The nis the sas your clinic. Interesting.".

Eugene glanced at Crow and replied coolly, "Oh, this whole street is Mr. Garcia's property. We collect rent from

here. Plus, the shopping centers up ahead share the sname. Let's go in through there.

Eugene spoke as though it were the most ordinary thing in the world, leading Cherise ahead. Crow, Hugh, and

Zander stood frozen for a moment, feeling shocked.

"That was such a humble way to put it! The entire street, plus a few shopping centers? Is everyone in Larkston

this low-key?" One of them murmured.
