Chapter 587: How Useful Is This Jade Pendant?

Nancy blinked in astonishment, "Young Master Micheal, what's the matter now?"

Micheal chuckled lightly, pointing his finger at Nancy's bag, "Don't ever lose that jade pendant. If you encounter something you can't handle, go abroad, just find any jade store, show the pendant to the people there, and they will help you."

"Ah?"

Nancy looked down at her bag in surprise, "Is this jade pendant really that useful?"

"Pretty much."

Micheal couldn't elaborate on the jade pendant's functions to Nancy and had to be vague, "In any case, it's very useful. Make sure you don't lose it and remember to carry it with you at all times. It might save your life one day."

"Okay."

Nancy patted her bag tenderly, "Don't worry, I will take good care of it."

"Mhm."

As Micheal bent down to get into the car, he seemed to remember something and turned his head to look at Nancy, "I'm going to City Nustin. If anything happens, call me, and I'll rush over to Liverton as soon as possible."

"You sure talk a lot!"

Charlie held Micheal's head and forcefully stuffed him into the car, "Hurry up and go!"

Their dilly-dallying, hesitance, and reluctance made them look like a young couple about to part ways to the uninitiated.

Watching Micheal's car drive away, Charlie's expression darkened, "Nan, we're not going to the company today, let's go home."

Nancy knew he must have something on his mind he wanted to discuss, so she nodded and planned to go home with Charlie.

Just then, Nancy's phone rang. She opened her bag, took out her phone, and saw a call from Andrew Lesser. Instinctively, she looked up at Charlie.

In the past, Nancy wouldn't have reacted this way, but after today's events, she felt uneasy about dealing with anyone from the Lesser family, even Andrew.

Charlie looked down and saw the caller ID, showing no hesitation, he nodded at Nancy.

Know your friends and foes, and you will never be imperiled in battles.

At this moment, Andrew's call to Nancy might provide them with some clues.

Seeing Charlie's nod, Nancy answered the call and held the phone to her ear.

From the earpiece came Andrew's somewhat anxious voice, "Nan, is your PhD in clinical medicine?"

Nancy looked puzzled, "Yes, what's the matter?"

Andrew took a deep breath and got straight to the point, "My father's heart suddenly had issues last night. He underwent surgery, but his condition is very unstable now. If we can't find a better doctor, I fear..."

Nancy frowned in confusion, "Master, the hospital the Lesser family went to should be the best in the country, right? The medical staff there should be the best in the country too. If they can't handle it, I doubt any other doctor in the country could."

"It's not that..."

Andrew's voice suddenly dropped, pleading, "Nan, the doctors here told me that the best specialist in this field in the country is Dr. Windward, but he's mostly engaged in medical research now. I've investigated, and he was your PhD supervisor. Could you please help and ask him to perform another surgery on my father?"

"Dr. Windward?"

Nancy realized the gravity of the situation and became somewhat flustered, "Master, Dr. Windward hasn't performed surgery on patients for many years, I'm afraid... I might not be able to request his assistance..."
