Daily American Drama

Peggy's apartment.

After Linda asked about some security details, she came out of the bedroom with a bad face.

But the daughter's expression is too natural.

So much so that she couldn't say much, so she could only stare at Adam fiercely after she came out.

Ms. Watson, I have asked Lisa to book dinner, shall we have dinner together later?

Adam smiled invitingly.

no appetite.

Linda frowned in disgust: David, let's go!

I'm a bit hungry.

David and Adam had a great chat, and Adam and Peggy seemed to him a match made in heaven, and he didn't want his lover and Adam to stay in a stalemate, and he and Peggy would be caught in the middle, so he smoothed things over.

Why don't we eat together to save wastage?

Linda was furious, but when she met her lover's eyes, she had no choice but to stay.

The middle-aged love is not as arrogant and indulgent as the first love in adolescence. It knows how to compromise and be considerate.

In front of the younger generation, especially in front of her daughter Peggy, Linda paid great attention to saving face for David.

Lisa is the assistant you gave to Peggy? Let her eat together later.

After Linda had no choice but to accept such a muddled account, she decided to investigate this Lisa who replaced her in disguise.

OK.

Naturally, Adam said nothing, and called Lisa.

Then the scene fell silent again.

Peggy ignored the three of them and sat back at the desk, busy with her own affairs.

Linda thought of the conversation with her daughter, so she kept a straight face and didn't want to talk.

Adam, I heard you are a writer?

David broke the silence again.

Part-time writer.

Knowing David's kindness, Adam smiled and said, I started writing after graduating from high school, mainly to achieve financial freedom. My goal has always been clear, to be a doctor who saves lives, and now I am a surgical intern at New York Medical Center.

New York Medical Center?

David was surprised: Today, the New York train derailment was reported overwhelmingly on TV. It seems that the injured patients were sent to the New York Medical Center?

right.

Adam nodded: Originally we had been working for more than ten hours, and I was driving to Peggy in the early morning...

You come here every night?

Linda interrupted in shock: Peggy is still young, how can you?!

Apparently, in the process of passing on the safety knowledge of mother and daughter, Linda has mastered some indescribable inside information, and is deeply worried about Adam coming over every night.

Too much is too much, so is happiness!

no.

Adam quickly explained: The interns are too busy. I don't have time to come here every day. I only come here every Sunday. These days, Peggy and I have an academic paper to collaborate on, so I sacrificed my rest time and came here overnight.

Cooperation on academic papers?

Linda's expression softened slightly.

Adam explained the ins and outs of the Duncan-Adler formula.

That's it.

Linda looked much better.

It turned out that my own daughter also gave a lot of rewards. From this point of view, the two parties are indeed equal.

You were planning to come here in the early hours of the morning, and then you received the news that the train had derailed?

David brought the topic back with a smile.

right.

Adam nodded: The hospital got the news and recruited all of us back immediately, mobilized all of us to welcome batch after batch of accident victims, and then we were busy until nine o'clock just finished, and we didn't have time to eat.

Being a doctor is really not easy.

David sighed.

indeed.

Adam said: I have a lot of energy, but it's okay. Those of my colleagues worked for forty hours in a row. When it was time to rest, they ignored the blood and stains on their bodies and fell asleep directly in the duty room. Some even fell asleep. I was so sleepy that I didn't want to move, so I just lay down on the push bed in the corridor and fell asleep.

In this case, why do you have to be a doctor?

Linda was puzzled and said, You are so rich and you write very well. Why don't you become a professional writer who is famous, profitable and free?

...

Adam's mouth twitched.

Linda's words, if coupled with Adam's good looks and gentleness, it's like seeing Adam as a high official of Duncan.

Doctors can save lives.

Adam righteously said: Today I saved nine acute and severe cases and six severe cases, which made me more happy than when I earned the first billion dollars! This is my lifelong pursuit, and I will fight against Peggy. The same persistence of the mathematical sciences.

Afterwards, the system’s intensive reminders + 0.01*9+0.005*6=0.12 years (43.8 days), only 0.8 days were consumed, and the balance was purely increased by 43 days.

Such a dramatic increase in lifespan is so joyful and fascinating!

But outsiders don't know this.

David: ...

Linda: ...

Both of them were speechless.

No matter how much David appreciates Adam, he still inexplicably suspects that Adam is pretending.

Linda was impressed by the consistency of Adam and Peggy's career pursuits, and was also shocked by Adam's first billion dollar knife.

The first billion dollars? How much money do you have?

hehe.

Adam said with a reserved smile: To a certain extent, money is just a bunch of numbers, meaningless. I don't care about this, so I don't know the specific numbers.

...

David's mouth twitched.

He can now be sure that Adam is just pretending.

But under the circumstances, it is reasonable for Adam to want to perform in front of Peggy's mother.

He didn't say anything.

Is writing a book so profitable?

Linda believed it, and said in shock.

well enough.

Adam explained: The first billion dollars in the beginning was indeed a big profit from writing books, but most of the later ones were capital games where money makes money, and what matters is the thickness of capital and the precision of vision.

you……

Linda glanced at David hesitantly.

She knows that David is now starting a business and lacks capital.

If someone injects capital, the road to entrepreneurship will be much easier and smoother.

But she just reminded Peggy not to have any financial interests with Adam...

David understood, and immediately shook his head slightly, his eyes firm.

The reason why he started a business was because he didn't want to be restrained.

He believes in his ability and enjoys the process of starting a business.

Besides, he really loves Linda, and he cares about Peggy very much. Naturally, he also understands the necessity of equal communication between men and women without economic entanglements.

He didn't want Linda to ask Adam for investment for him.

Adam also noticed the change in their eyes and understood their thoughts, so he directly pretended not to know.

I actually like reading books too.

David changed the subject with a smile: My favorite author is Jane Austen.

Author of Pride and Prejudice.

Adam nodded: She wrote a masterpiece, which has been spread around the world for more than a hundred years, and its influence is indeed great.

right.

David laughed and said, But compared to the widely circulated Pride and Prejudice, I prefer her other novel, Emma.

Emma...

Adam was taken aback, and glanced at Linda Watson, with a strange expression on his face.
