Spoiled by Mr. Russell novel Chapter 1315

Chapter 1315

Maria’s brain could not process Austin's words, and she stood there, stunned. Austin did not care for all the things she had mentioned. Since everyone thought he was Dominic's secret apprentice, many wealthy and influential people sought his help. It was not like he helped all of them.

He knew he was not Dominic's secret apprentice. Although he was confident in his medical skills, there was a risk of things going wrong.

When that happened, he would offend influential people, so taking the risk would not be worth it.

Moreover, he understood that he could not accept their invitation easily with the increasing number of people who sought his help. It would only make him lose his mystique and make him appear worthless.

"Mr. Fike, I don’t have ill intentions, and I'm not lying to you. Didn't you learn about medicine to save people’s lives? My niece is only a little over 20 years old, and she consulted many doctors about her condition, but none of them could help her.

"If you could save her, you could make a name for yourself in the whole world!" Maria was unwilling to give up and chased after Austin.

However, Austin only strode more quickly into the parking lot to look for his car. He was not in the mood to entertain her at all.

Seeing that he was going to leave, Maria panicked and stood in her spot. Stomping her foot, she said through gritted teeth, "If you really are the miracle doctor and you're his secret apprentice, why won't you dare to help us? You're just a conman, aren't you?"

That was Fabian's doubt earlier, while Maria was confident that Austin was not a conman. However, she could not care about all that now.

He knew his medical skills deserved recognition and honor. It was just that Dominic was too stubborn and had not officially taken him in as his apprentice. However, it was true that he was skilled in this field, so how could he be a conman? He just did not clear the misunderstanding. That was all there was to it.

"I-I was just babbling nonsense. Please don't take it to heart. I know you’re busy, but I'm only doing this for my family. I hope you..." Maria trailed off. She had no idea what he was thinking at this moment. He looked to be such a gentleman, but it was tough to communicate with him.

Austin continued to stare at her while his mind processed what she had just said earlier. ‘She said something about Secretary Rollins’ daughter and that none of the doctors could treat her illness. I've been too busy with the research, but I've not made any progress recently. Perhaps I could discover something if I switched my focus to something else. Plus, I can always say I went to help people with their illnesses if things are not moving well here at the lab"

With that thought, he became less cold, and his tone improved. "You mentioned that your niece has a condition. What is it?"

Upon hearing that, Maria's eyes widened, thinking she still had hope. She became much more energetic and quickly said, "Mr. Fike, it's like this..."
