The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

73: Chapter 73 Some People Are Ultimately Different_1 73: Chapter 73 Some People Are Ultimately Different_1 “The ‘Burning Blood Gu’ usually cultivates in blood and is extremely sensitive to the scent of blood, but its survival ability is actually not strong.

Exposed to the air, it would die within half a day.”

“The Burning Blood Gu entered the child’s body through the right hand, so we can infer that either someone smeared the Burning Blood Gu directly on the child’s hand, or they put the Burning Blood Gu on an object that the child could touch.

When the child touched the object, the Burning Blood Gu sensed the scent of fresh blood, crawled onto the child’s hand, found an appropriate spot, and entered the bloodstream.”

“The process of Burning Blood Gu entering the human body takes some time, so it either happened when the child was asleep, or the Burning Blood Gu was attached to a toy or something like that the child frequently touched.”

“Retrospectively considering the symptoms, the Burning Blood Gu must have entered the child’s body around five to seven days ago.”

Carson Flores shared what he knew about the situation, “As for investigating this matter, that’s up to you, Mr.

Reid.”

“Five to seven days?”

Leonard Reid’s gaze flickered, his eyes filled with undisguised anger, “I roughly have a suspect in mind, thank you, Mr.

Flores, for leading me out of confusion.”

Carson Flores washed his hands in the water beside him, “Alright, I’m going back to work.

Once the child wakes up, observe him, and if there are any discomforts, contact me.”

“Mr.

Flores, please wait.”

Leonard Reid took out a bank card and handed it to Carson Flores with both hands, “Thank you for your help, and here is the fee for your consultation.

Please accept it.”

Carson Flores smiled, “How much is in there?”

Leonard Reid respectfully replied, “This is the consultation fee I had promised before, ten million.”

Carson Flores laughed, “Donate it.”

Leonard Reid’s expression turned astonished, “Donate it?”

Carson Flores nodded, “As a loner, I only need enough to get by.

The money just sits in the bank as a number and serves no purpose.

Since it’s for treating a little friend, you can donate it for me to those children who are sick but can’t afford treatment.”

Leonard Reid’s gaze softened, and he looked at Carson Flores with deep respect.

Previously, he had submitted to Carson Flores mostly because he was forced by circumstances, not willingly, and his proud heart was, in fact, not convinced.

He thought Carson Flores was putting him through all this as payback for neglecting him, and while he verbally praised Carson Flores as a virtuous person, he didn’t truly believe Carson Flores was any more noble than himself.

But at this moment, Leonard Reid finally believed that Carson Flores was truly different from everyone else he had met before.

To seek and not to seek, not bending for wealth or fame.

A billionaire donates ten million, which is just a fraction of their net worth, insignificant.

But for Carson Flores to donate ten million when he can’t even spare that amount himself.

Leonard Reid, who started from the bottom, now holds a high position but deeply admires and respects such people, and in a flash, all his previous misgivings vanished into thin air.

“Mr.

Flores, you are a real Divine Doctor, a true nobleman!

I sincerely admire you!”, Leonard Reid exclaimed as he held up the bank card, “If Mr.

Flores donates ten million, I will add another ten million as well.

Twenty million in total will be donated to children who need medical treatment but can’t afford it.

I’ll have someone handle this and ensure the money is effectively used to truly help the children.”

Carson Flores smiled, “You have a good heart, Mr.

Reid, but it sounds like you were just paying lip service before.”

Leonard Reid laughed heartily, “I did respect you before, but I had some reservations.

Now, though, I respect you wholeheartedly.

Most people in this world, including myself, are commoners.

We spend our lives trapped in the struggles for fame and profit, unable to extricate ourselves.

But there are always a few people like Mr.

Flores who value life over fame and fortune, who live transparently and are truly admirable.”

Leonard Reid took a box from his secretary and handed it over, “Mr.

Flores, if you don’t take the consultation fee, then you must accept this old mountain ginseng.

In the hands of a Divine Doctor like you, it will definitely have a greater effect.”

Old mountain ginseng?

Do all rich people like to give this as a gift?

The Simmons Family also gave Vincent Ward one.

This time, Carson Flores didn’t refuse.

The grandfather of the Miller Family genuinely liked him and treated him as if he were his grandson.

Although it was Shirley Miller who led the deception, Carson Flores still felt guilty about it.

The old man was getting on in years and his health was not great.

Having this old mountain ginseng and combining it with other herbs for a warming supplement could have a significant beneficial effect.

“Alright, I’ll take this.”

Carson Flores picked up the box, ready to leave, and his gaze fell upon Raphael Schneider standing nearby.

He paused, “Dr.

Schneider, would you like to come along?”

Raphael Schneider was feeling uneasy in his heart, unsure of how Leonard Reid would deal with him when suddenly he heard Carson Flores’ question.

His eyes suddenly showed immense surprise.

Was Carson Flores aware of his current predicament and offering a helping hand?

Raphael Schneider glanced nervously at Leonard Reid only to see him walking over with a warm smile, shaking hands with Raphael Schneider, “Dr.

Schneider, you’ve worked hard these past two days.

I’ll have Zhang take you home.

Please rest first, and I will send you a thank-you gift later.”

Raphael Schneider’s hanging heart settled, knowing that Leonard Reid would no longer hold a grudge against him on account of Carson Flores.

Raphael Schneider’s heart was a tumult of emotions, having scoffed and belittled Carson Flores just days before, and now Carson Flores was generously helping him.

To compare with others is to court despair, to compare goods is to throw them away.

Compared to Carson Flores, his own medical skills weren’t worth much and yet he had been putting on airs.

At this moment, Raphael Schneider wished there was a crack in the floor for him to crawl into…
