Evelyn Hanson quickly lowered her voice and said in the receptionist's ear,
"Hello, I'm a representative from Eastern Hospital.
Although our hospital is currently only a grade-three B hospital, it might soon be upgraded to grade-three A.
How about you give us a break and let us in? We also have an invitation."
"I'm sorry.
I don't have the authority to let you in."
Evelyn hit a wall and felt somewhat dejected.
"Emily Parker?
What are you all doing here?"
As Emily and Evelyn were being stopped outside, a somewhat familiar voice came from behind.
Adam Willow walked over.
Adam was accompanying Director Dan to this reception today.
After learning from Sophie Parker that he would become Dr. X's student in the future, Adam had intentionally or unintentionally mentioned it to the director that his paper had been guided by Dr. X.
Director Dan then assumed he knew Dr. X, so he insisted on taking Adam to this reception.
