Chapter 32

Not to mention with Jaxson’s personality, it was impossible for outsiders to find any fault in his marriage.

So the secrecy of this marriage was also for his own convenience.

Even if he were to marry Caroline in the future and give Collin a proper name, it would be legitimate, and Caroline would not be interfering.

Charlotte thought so, and another wave of bitterness rose in her throat.

After a brief silence, the man picked up a tissue to wipe the corners of his mouth and said lightly, “There is a clinical trial research meeting on robot surgery next week. You take Caroline with you.”

Charlotte was stunned.

Incredulously looking at him, “I took her?”

The conference on clinical trials of robotic surgery is the country’s premier large–scale medical conference, attended by chief physicians from various departments.

Caroline was the director in name only, relying on Jaxson to be parachuted into Boston Medical Center.”

But he knew perfectly well what the occasion was, yet he actually suggested that she bring Caroline along…

Did he really want to promote Caroline like that?

He lifted his eyelids, gazed at her,“What, unwilling?”

“Why don’t you find someone else to take her?”

She didn’t say no, but she also indicated her unwillingness.

Jaxson’s eyes darkened for a moment, “I know you have opinions about her, but this time, it’s not up to you.”

“Jaxson, you wanted to promote her, right?”

Charlotte took a deep breath and finally asked.

He was silent for a moment before replying, indifferent.“And if I am?”

And if I am?

As if it were just that simple.

But what could she do about it?

Looking at Charlotte’s pale face, Jaxson pressed his lips into a thin line, his tone softening lightly.

“Relax. She won’t threaten your position.”

Or your place as Mrs. Hamilton.*

But he didn’t bother saying that part out loud.

Position…

He meant her standing as the lead surgeon, didn’t he?

Charlotte suddenly smiled, setting down her fork.

‘Don’t worry, I won’t keep her waiting too long.”

She’d be transferring out soon anyway.
