NovelEnglishChapter 559
Chloe had never been a fan of the whole elite tradition of taking on goddaughters and godsons; in fact, she
found it a bit off-putting. But today, she was surprised to find herself feeling unusually grateful. It was like she'd
hit the jackpot. Becoming the goddaughter of her idol felt like a dream ctrue.
And then there was Neil. Despite his stern demeanor that commanded respect and a bit of fear from everyone,
Chloe felt a strange sense of closeness to him. Especially today, when he stood up for her. At that moment, she
was overwhelmed with the urge to cry. Her relationship with Jacob had always been more about business than
family, his reputation always taking precedence. Yet today, even though it was their first meeting, Neil had
defended her when she was being slandered and dragged through the mud. Chloe felt a wave of emotion she
couldn't quite describe.
As she gazed at the dappled shadows of trees outside, something clicked in her mind. "By the way, what's
Isaac's username?" she asked.
Connor chuckled softly, "Eat, Sleep, Dream of Jojo."
Meanwhile, a couple of hours earlier, Lisa had been carted off by the police. Leah and Jacob, following in their
car, had been trailing the police vehicle closely. Jacob and Leah were in the back, the driver up front.
Jacob hadn't anticipated the night's chaos. Lisa's lies and deceit had left the Shaw family fed up. He found
himself tangled with the law. Chloe had barely managed to forge a connection with the Shaw family, yet Neil had
only acknowledged Chloe, publicly severing ties with the Meadows family.

the car window. Leah had told the driver to stay on the police car's tail, but then she heard a loud thud. It was
Jacob's head hitting the window. He collapsed onto the seat, his face drained of color, lips turning blue, and a
hand clutching his chest.
Jacob had a history of heart issues, already having suffered a heart attack because of Lisa before. Now, he
looked the sas back then. Panicked, Leah tapped the driver's shoulder urgently, "Mr. Zhang, get us to Ryan
Hospital, quick!"
The following afternoon, Chloe got a
frantic call from Leah. "Chloe, I'm sorry, | know shouldn't be calling, but I'm out of options. Your dad had
a heart attack, and he's in the
hospital for emergency surgery. Dr. Fink mentioned something about an aortic dissection. | don't really get it, but
he said it'd be safest f Dr. Zhao from Ren Harmony Hospital did the surgery. But we don't know anyone in
Eldridge City..."
Chloe's face hardened. "I'll take care of it. I'm heading to the hospital now."
The Meadows family might be one of Riverbrook's top families, but they had no pull in Eldridge City. Chloe
immediately called Connor.
Ten minutes later, Leah got the
news: Dr. Zhao from Ren Harmony would be coming to Riverbrook that afternoon to operate on Jacob. Leah was
stunned. She had hoped Connor could at least get them in touch with Dr. Zhao so they could transfer over to
him. After all, Dr. Zhao, dubbed "Dr. Zhao the Surgeon," was in such high demand that even the rich had to book
him far in advance.
But here they were, skipping the line, with Dr. Zhaoflying in on the Sartori family's private jet to perform the
surgery. For the first time, Leah truly felt the gulf between the Sartori family's wealth and the ordinary kind of
rich. They had money, sure, but they also had the clout to bend the rules.
Chloe arrived at the hospital in no time. Leah, tense since the night before, finally felt a bit of relief when she
saw her. Tears welled up in Leah's eyes as she looked at Chloe. Connor was there with Chloe, offering some
comforting words and reassuring Leah that Dr. Zhao's surgeries were almost always successful.
