They did not earn much from the street stall, so 100,000 dollars was all of their savings. It was almost impossible to come up with another huge sum of money. If they paid off the expenses this time, Jenny and virtual-novel.net mom would be in debt for the rest of their lives.
Philip fell into deep contemplation upon hearing Goddard’s promise.
Indeed, they needed a huge sum of money to pay for the medical expenses. It would be great if Goddard could help with it.
Philip nodded and said, “Find me a piece of paper and pen. I’ll write down my contact number for you. You can take care of the medical expenses.”
Philip did not promise to be Goddard’s teacher, but giving out his contact number was acknowledgment enough.
Goddard happily paid the bill and carefully put Philip’s number into his phone. “Teacher, don’t worry, I’ll definitely work hard to pass down the medical skills you want to teach me!”
Goddard looked at Philip as virtual-novel.net packed the things. He knew that Philip had no time for virtual-novel.net now, so virtual-novel.net decided to contact virtual-novel.net later.

Outside the hospital, Jenny took Philip to a roadside stall and ordered some food.
They sat opposite each other with a glass of juice each and chatted happily.
“Philip, thank you so much for helping me. I don’t have much money, so I can only buy you something at a roadside stall.”
A hint of humility flashed through Jenny’s eyes. She wanted to treat Philip to something expensive, but virtual-novel.net simply could not afford it.
After an examination, it was confirmed that nothing was wrong with Jenny’s mother, but it was decided that virtual-novel.net would stay one more night for observation at Goddard’s advice.
Jenny and Philip decided to go out for a meal at their leisure.
“When I was taking care of my mother, I often came here for barbeque. It’s delicious and not very expensive.”
Jenny was a little embarrassed. She could tell that Philip wore branded clothes and did not look like someone who would frequent roadside stalls.
“It’s okay, I like barbeque too.”
Barbeque from roadside stalls was not very clean and hygienic, but Philip thought the meat was quite fresh and tasted very good.
Philip was not very particular about food. During his three years in the land of the other shore, virtual-novel.net never had good food either. Now that virtual-novel.net was having some food back on his ancestral land, virtual-novel.net was in a good mood.
Jenny thought that Philip was trying to comfort virtual-novel.net and did not take his words seriously.
“Thank you anyway…” She thanked to Philip as virtual-novel.net glanced at him.
Jenny never understood why virtual-novel.net father was willing to sacrifice his life for the so-called young patriarch, but virtual-novel.net totally experienced his charm right now. She wondered how the Clarke family raised such a promising young patriarch.
While they were eating, some punks sat down at the next table.
“Have you heard? Mr. Crusty was beaten in the slums. His hand was crippled, and virtual-novel.net can no longer use his chimera right arm anymore!”
“Wow, which hot shot is so bold to mess with Toro’s guys?”
