Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty novel Chapter 786

"Also, Ms. Cavanaugh tried to take advantage of the situation by teaming up with Anna and others to pressure Yolanda. Jude, did Mr. Cavanaugh pay you to persuade Yolanda today?"

Lennox's and Miranda's expressions changed abruptly as they had a bad feeling about this. They could sense that the Kaufman brothers' attitude toward Yolanda seemed more than just that of superiors toward an important staff member.

Still, they were puzzled. What made Yolanda so special that even the head of the State Medical Board dared not offend her?

Jude's face darkened as he turned to Lennox and Miranda with a cold smile. "Mr. Cavanaugh, I didn't expect you to treat me as a friend while plotting against me."

Though Lennox was shocked that Miranda had not told him the truth, this wasn't the time to discipline his daughter in front of others. Joel's words left him no choice but to accept responsibility for everything.

"Mr. Kaufman, that's all in the past. What's urgent now is getting Yolanda to treat my illness. If you can help, I'll donate a billion dollars to the State Medical Board!"

Given the Board's substantial annual expenses, a billion-dollar donation would be incredibly tempting to Jude. Yet faced with such an enormous offer, he remained unmoved. "Mr. Cavanaugh, please leave."

Lennox stared at Jude in astonishment, and even Miranda was taken aback. Did Jude just reject a billion-dollar donation to protect Yolanda? This seemed absurd!

"Mr. Kaufman, are you sure you won't help?" Lennox persisted, believing their 15 years of friendship should warrant his help even without the donation.

"Ms. Henderson is an honored guest of our family. You'll be offending our family if you offend her. Not only would Joel and I object, but our father would as well!"

Jude's words left the Cavanaughs dumbfounded.

"Ms. Henderson, don't you remember what day it is this weekend?" Dunstan approached carrying a massive balloon. The traditional Havarian decorations actually complemented Willow Creek Clinic perfectly.

"What day?" Yolanda looked confused.

"This weekend marks Willow Creek Clinic's 100th day since reopening. Isn't that worth celebrating?"

"Uh..." Faced with Dunstan's and others' excitement, Yolanda felt somewhat speechless. What was there to celebrate about being open for a hundred days?

"Yolanda, this is a local business custom in Riverdale."
