As a result, when Nancy saw Lottie coming out of the room, he was a little surprised and could not look away. “Why aren’t you wearing those dresses today?”
“I’m going back to the old residence.”
Lottie was concise. After receiving Nancy’s still puzzled gaze, he added, “If you’re afraid of being punished to kneel, you can put an extra layer between your pants.”
Nancy felt that the reason was legitimate. He could not say what was wrong, but he felt that something was wrong.
After breakfast, Lottie went out with her.“Aren’t you resting today? You’ve been sitting for three to four days.””
“Well…”
Lottie smiled. “I have nothing to do at home anyway, so I went to help.”
She didn’t want to be alone today.
There were many people in the clinic, so the day was very busy.

There was no time to let his imagination run wild.In the
afternoon, she had just finished acupuncture a patient when a
few young nurses called out from the window.
It was snowing again.
Lottie looked at the time and hurriedly returned to his office to change his coat before leaving with his bag.
Today’s weather forecast was a heavy snowfall.
She had to leave early to prevent the road from freezing and traffic jams. If she stayed late, it would give others a chance to flare up.
The taxi driver was a meticulous person. No matter how cold the car was, he was unwilling to turn on the air
conditioner.Lottie rubbed his hands in the back seat. The driver said apologetically, “I’m sorry. I want to save some electricity and run a few more kilometers.””
“It’s okay”
Through the rearview mirror, Lottie sized up his ugly expression. “It’s fine for me to freeze occasionally. However, your heart shouldn’t be good, right? Try not to be like this.””
Big Brother was surprised. “Hey, how can you tell?”

Without waiting for her to speak, he smiled bitterly and sighed. “It’s this illness that was passed down to my daughter. I want to
save up enough money for her surgery now!”
Lottie had just seen his daughter on his phone screen saver.The
little girl with big eyes looked a little sickly because of her
illness. She should be in her early six years.
Lottie’s heart skipped a beat. “How much more do we need?”
The eldest brother grinned. “Soon. With another 30 to 40 thousand yuan, the doctor will be able to schedule the appointment.”
Thirty or forty thousand.
By the time he saved 30,000 to 40,000 yuan, with his daughter’s condition, it would probably be too late for the surgery.
Lottie lowered his eyes and did not reply.She wanted to wait for Nigel to go back together. A few hundred meters away from Pollard family’s old residence, she scanned the payment code and got out of the car.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, drifting down like goose feathers.
Seeing that it was almost time, she took out her phone and

called Nigel. “Brother Nigel, how long will it take for you to
arrive? I’ll wait for you in a pavilion near the old residence.”
“Lottie…”
Nigel seemed to hesitate for a moment. “I have something to
deal with at the company. Go back first. I’ll go over immediately after I’m done, okay?”
She didn’t answer the “no” right.She had been frozen for too
long, so she said in a nasal voice, “Okay, what time is it?”
“Yes, by seven–thirty. I’ll be there for sure.”
“Alright, I’ll wait for you.”
After hanging up the phone, disappointment flashed across
Lottie’s eyes. He did not wait for him and walked towards the old residence alone.
Tonight, Nigel would not come.
For a moment, she felt ridiculous.How could he think of using Nigel’s guilt to get away with it?
In the past, Greg had not passed away. Nigel would only accompany Pollard family back when she needed to discuss official matters with her.
Chapter50
Moreover, Esther was now single again.
His time was not enough to accompany Esther.
It was a small piece of cake.
At most, it meant that all she could get from Nigel was
superfluous.Extra cake!
The extra time and money.
Just as she was about to reach the Pollard family old residence,
her phone suddenly rang.
The smile on Lottie’s lips was even again when he saw that it
was an unknown caller.
After rejecting the call, he only sent a message.
[Just treat it as giving me a chance to be a good person and bring
your daughter to see a doctor in peace.]“Ms. Cummings,”
Gayle passed by and saw Lottie standing at the door in a daze.
He walked out with an umbrella. “Why didn’t you bring an
umbrella? You caught a cold. Erma, you should blame us.”
