Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)

Chapter 48

Looking at the direction pointed by the little girl, Fade saw that Director Chang was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was bald and had a fat beer belly. He was happily drinking and chatting with his colleagues.

"Little sister, is Director Chang from this factory?" Lily pointed to the factory. "He owes your mother money?"

The little girl nodded and said, "He is from the factory. My mother used to work in the factory, but she got hurt. They didn't pay for the medical bills, and they didn't pay my mother's wages."

"What?" Lily was so angry that she almost broke into a rage, she wanted to teach Director Chang a lesson.

However, Fade stopped Lily in time and winked at her, saying, "Let's talk in another place."

Fade leaned down and said to the little girl, "Little girl, where is your mother? I bet she hasn't eaten yet. Let's go and see her and bring her some lunch. Is that okay?"

Speaking of lunch, the little girl began salivating. Then she nodded and agreed to

Fade's proposal.

So, the two took the little girl to another restaurant on the side of the road. They ordered two portions of meat dishes, packed them up, and then walked toward the little girl's house.

Lily poked Fade and said, "Why won't you let me teach Director Chang a lesson?"

Fade said in a low voice, "If you took action just now. At most, you can fire Director Chang and then criticize him. But you will alert the enemy, which will make the factory heighten their guard."

"What's more, do you think that if Donald is really making some shady deals, will it only be a matter of violating an employee's salary? I suspect that there are far more serious matters behind this. So, it's not too late to go to the little girl's home before continuing the investigation."

"Even if my guess is wrong, I am still a doctor who can treat the little girl's mother."

After listening to Fade's explanation, Lily blushed slightly. She didn't expect that as the manager of a company where she had been working for many years, she was so impulsive when she dealt with trouble. She was not as considerate as Fade who was just a rookie.

After walking for about fifteen minutes, the two followed the little girl to a low- rise building. The building looked like an old house built in the seventies and eighties of the last century. It was dilapidated beyond recognition.

The wall finishes were mottled and crack appeared on the wall. Even the railings on the roof half- collapsed. It was possible to believe that the house could be blown down by a substantial storm.

The small building was dilapidated, but there were more than ten units of families inhabiting the house. The little girl and her mother lived in a temporarily small shed behind the small building. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

The shed was not big and there was a bed inside. Beside it was a wardrobe covered with wooden strips which were nailed onto it.

Under the eaves outside the shed, there was a wooden table and two stools, beside which was a briquette furnace, which was burning a pot of water.

Hearing the sound outside, there was a cough in the room and a woman's voice. "Little Maggie, you're back!"

The little girl came in with Fade and Lily. She gently called "Mom" and then put the food beside her mother.

The woman looked at the delicious food, then looked at Fade and Lily in vigilance and said, "Who are..."

Fade quickly explained with a smile, "Miss, don't get me wrong. We are tourists passing by. We just met Little Maggie on the street. My wife likes her very much, so we came to see you." With this, Fade pointed to Lily.

Lily glanced at Fade, but still smiled and nodded. She said to the woman, "Miss, are you hungry? Come on, eat up. Otherwise, the food will be cold in no time."

The woman nodded and began to eat. The little girl Little Maggie also ate with a small bowl. However, she just ate mouthful and mouthful of rice and rarely ate the side dishes, especially the meat dishes.

Lily couldn't help but ask why. The little girl said that it was rare to eat meat dishes, so she had to keep them for the next few meals to allow her mother to recover her health.

The little girl's tender and sincere words made Lily's heart beat faster. She wanted to hold the little girl in her arms and dote on her.

Fade seized the opportunity to change the topic and said, "Miss, I heard from Little Maggie that you used to work in the factory nearby, but then you seemed to have injured yourself, can I know what's going on?"

When he brought up the factory, the woman's eyes suddenly tightened, and she put down the bowls and chopsticks. Her expression was a little strange.

Fade quickly said, "Miss, I mean no harm. I am a doctor. I wanted to ask you how you got injured, so I can see if there is a way to cure your leg."

"Can you cure my legs?" The woman's eyes sparkled with anticipation.

Fade nodded and said, "I'm confident, but I need to know the cause to figure out the best way to treat it."

The woman was so excited that she couldn't even finish her food. She began to talk about how her legs were broken.

It turned out that the woman's name was Carrie Liu. She was an assembly line worker in the factory. She was known to have responsible ethics, therefore she was appointed to be the quality inspector who oversees the quality of the final product.

Just half a year ago, Carrie found defective products while inspecting products, so she picked the defective items out according to the regulations and reported them to the director of the workshop, Director Chang.

Director Chang praised her, saying that she was earnest and responsible. But later, within a week, Carrie managed to discover several more batches of defective products, and the numbers and conditions were much more severe than before. Therefore, Carrie reported the matter again and reminded the factory to pay attention to the technical problems in production.

As a result, what she did not expect was that after this incident, Director Chang removed her from the duty of inspection and sent her to the logistics department to be a cleaner.

As a result, Carrie was led to even feel more suspicion towards the company. She secretly gathered some latest products of the company and found that many of them were defective products.

Carrie now knew that the company had involved in large-scale counterfeiting and that Director Chang was very likely part of it. In a hurry, she secretly informed the factory director, Michael Huang.

She thought that Director Chang would definitely be exposed under the strict investigation of Director Huang. However, to her surprise, Director Chang was still untouched. Instead, it was she who was fired by the factory immediately. On the second night after she was fired, her legs were broken by hooligans who attacked her out of nowhere.

Carrie was disheartened and was preparing to commit suicide. However, her sensible daughter Little Maggie stopped her at a critical moment and insisted on asking Director Chang for her salary last month of work before she was fired.

Thus, that was what Lily and Fade had witnessed in front of the restaurant earlier.
