On the other end, Max grew restless. He called his father.
"Dad, how long do I have to stay here?" he asked urgently the moment the call connected. "I'm tired of being here."
Luke rubbed his forehead. He couldn't bring Max back. He knew Matteo and Felix wouldn't like it.
"Don't think about coming back," he said sternly. "Stay there. I'll help you open a clinic there."
"I don't want that," Max snapped. "I already established a clinic there. I invested my sweat and blood into that clinic. The establishment, the clients, the hospitals I had ties with—all I built painstakingly. I can't leave them all."
"Your reputation has been ruined," Luke exclaimed in a frenzy. "Do you think the hospitals here will still want you? Give up the idea of coming back. Make your career there. I'll help you."
