Chapter 289 Trevor Lee
Brandon and Anouk stayed at the JZL Medical Clinic until four in the afternoon before leaving.
James personally saw them off, prescribing medication tailored to each of their conditions to help improve their health.
Mary and Kaitlyn also hurried off after receiving a call from Addison.
Apparently, the news of Reese and her son being captured had already reached the Smith Family.
One by one, the cars left, and the JZL Medical Clinic gradually returned to its calm state, but James didn't stop.
He made further arrangements for Mark and the others.
After a period of dedicated study, the three old men's medical skills had made a quantum leap, and they couldn't help but want to learn even more.
James found people to help under the guise of clinical trials.
Besides having Daniel see patients daily, James also arranged for Bradley and the other two to see patients two days a week, sharing the workload with Daniel and himself.
As for Brooke, who was determined to learn medicine, James had him study there, teaching him medical skills and having him work one day a week.
With four experts here, James felt much more at ease.
After making all the arrangements, James let out a heavy sigh of relief, though a hint of loneliness appeared on his face.
Olivia didn't come today.
The opening of the JZL Medical Clinic wouldn't have been possible without Olivia's support. James felt a bit regretful that she wasn't there to witness it.
James had called her several times at noon, but Olivia didn't answer. He only found out from Jonathan that she was resting in her apartment.
James wanted to visit Olivia immediately, but he was too busy. Now that he was free, he asked Samuel to take him to Olivia's home.
He knew something must have happened. Otherwise, with Olivia's personality, she would have come to support him.
"James, Ray has been caught." In the cold rain, Samuel reported to James while driving. "Troy buried him and the container in the ground, but left a small pipe for air. He won't die anytime soon."
Ray had crossed James's bottom line. James not only wanted him dead but also wanted him to die painfully.
"Keep them buried for a few days, until they break down." James's tone was indifferent. "Then bring Ava over and let her deal with Ray and his gang."
Letting Ava take revenge on her enemies was the best psychological therapy for her to move past her trauma.
"Understood." Samuel replied with a smile, "By the way, Reese and Juan have also been captured."
"Keep them locked up for a week first." James wasn't very interested in Reese and her son, but he wouldn't let them off easily either, "Then make them pay double for the car, antiques and prayer beads. If they don't compensate actively, let them serve three to five years in prison."
James would love to see Reese and her son spend time in jail. Addison was Mary's mother, otherwise, he would have taught her a lesson too.
Samuel nodded lightly and then accelerated the car.
Half an hour later, James rang the doorbell of Olivia's apartment.
With a crisp sound, the door opened, revealing Olivia's slightly haggard yet still beautiful face.
She was wearing a thin nightgown and a sheer black robe, her curves faintly visible, sparking endless imagination.
Seeing it was James, Olivia was first stunned, then exclaimed with joy, "James?"
"The JZL Medical Clinic opened, and you didn't give me a gift, so I came to collect it myself." James pushed the door and hugged Olivia's slender waist,"Tell me, why didn't you give me a gift?"
"Are you worried they'll retaliate against you, so you're keeping your distance from me? You've really disappointed me." He pretended to look sad. "You have to make it up to me tonight."
"The traces of acting are too strong, and they are not qualified at all." Olivia giggled as she slipped out of James's embrace. "Didn't I have Jonathan send a gift?"
"I didn't go because I wasn't feeling well and didn't want to cause you any trouble. As for the pressure, I don't care about it at all. Besides knowing that Raymond and his people will definitely support you, I also believe you can overcome any difficulties. The man I like, wouldn't be unable to withstand a mere suppression, right?" She closed the door behind her and welcomed James into the room.
She kicked off her slippers, revealing her toes. She was a truly enchanting woman, even her feet were alluring.
"I just diagnosed you, you're not sick, not even on your period." James stopped staring and pressed Olivia against the wall, getting straight to the point. "Shouldn't you tell me the real reason you didn't show up today? I know very well that you absolutely wanted to witness the opening of the JZL Medical Clinic."
He sighed softly, "If you don't tell me the truth, it will become a thorn in my heart."
Olivia's eyelids twitched, then she hooked her arms around James's neck and said coyly, "If I told you I didn't go because I didn't want to see Mary, would you believe me?"
As she spoke, she bit her lip lightly, her face full of charm, her eyes filled with longing. She was a true enchantress.
James didn't fall for it, "You're not the type to avoid confrontation, Olivia."
Olivia wanted to continue making excuses, but seeing James's determined gaze, she finally smiled bitterly, "Alright, I'll tell you. I'm the granddaughter of the Lee family in Los Angeles. My mother had me out of wedlock and never revealed who my father is, so I can't let anyone know my identity for the next few years. I felt stifled and uncomfortable living in Los Angeles, so I took the money my mother left me and came to Rosewood City to start anew. Recently, my mother wanted to gain more influence in the Lee family, so she planned to introduce me to a young master from Stardust City. He's from the Gonzalez Family, Mr. Gonzalez, whose status and position are on par with Keith. My grandfather also approved of this match, so they called me back and kept pressuring me. In the past few days, they've been calling me ten times a day and even threatened to cut off WH Group's resources. I was worried that if I attended the opening ceremony of the JZL Medical Clinic, I wouldn't be able to support you and might even bring you trouble."
She explained everything in one breath, feeling a bit relieved afterward. She then gently caressed James's face, "I dreamed of witnessing the opening of the JZL Medical Clinic, but I couldn't go."
Her voice was softer than ever, "You're already struggling enough against them. Adding my grandfather and the Gonzalez Family would leave you with no chance of winning."
"The Gonzalez Family, one of the five major families." James held Olivia's hand, understanding her, "The Lee family is also a prominent family in Los Angeles?"
Olivia sighed lightly, "My grandfather is Trevor Lee."
James was shocked,"Is he the billionaire Trevor?"
James hadn't finished expressing his surprise when the door was knocked on heavily.
"Olivia, open the door, I am your mother."
