My Dady BR 303
Chapter 303 Another Show
The entire room fell silent.
The meeting had been going on for an hour, yet The Four Elders had barely spoken a word.
Despite the fact that everyone present was a highly respected figure in Eragos- some even holding nationwide influence-none of them dared to overstep in front of the Elders.

And yet, here they were, watching as the usually strict and dignified Elders bickered like children with faces flushed, all because of a young girl...
No one dared to interrupt, but in their minds, Charmaine's status had risen significantly. They now saw her as someone who couldn't be taken lightly.
Meanwhile, Charmaine felt like her ears were about to explode.
It had been a long time since she'd heard this kind of loud argument.
The last time was in her past life-back when she was wandering alone in South Aspus, before Basil and the others took her in. They used to bicker endlessly over who got the first bite of food and who got the last.
As the bickering continued, Charmaine's lips curved slightly before she calmly raised her hand.
"If you keep arguing, I'm leaving."
Basil glared at her. "No way!"
lan panicked. "You just got here, and now you're leaving?"
Joe chuckled warmly. "Alright, alright. We'll do as Charmaine says."
Kenneth huffed. "Tch, as if I'd waste my time arguing with these old men."
Seeing this, everyone in the room had the same thought.
This young girl is really amazing!
With just one sentence, she had The Four Elders obediently backing down.
Even Micah, sitting in the second row, gave Charmaine a thumbs-up. Impressive, Master! Glad I chose the right side!
Basil huffed, then finally turned to Charmaine to go over the agenda for today's meeting.
"This project was proposed by the higher-ups," Basil explained. "It's a collaboration between Eragos city officials and the hospital to produce a reality show aimed at easing tensions between doctors and patients while providing the public with a more transparent and comprehensive understanding of the medical field."
He then introduced the key figures. "The investment comes from the Whites, the production is handled by the city government, and the planning is led by the hospital's director and secretary. The chief tor is Paxton Zimmer-the same one who oversaw the previous diplomatic summit."
Charmaine followed Basil's lead and greeted everyone once again.

Back at the diplomatic summit, Paxton had been responsible for overseeing every detail. The last-minute change in the piano soloist was something he only learned about after Charmaine took the stage.
Seeing an unfamiliar young face at such a critical moment almost gave him a heart attack!
If Charmaine's performance hadn't ended up stealing the show, that sudden change would have been the biggest stain on his directing career.
Paxton gave Charmaine a friendly nod. "If I had known earlier about your incredible piano skills, Ms. Nelson, you would have been my first choice for the solo performance."
Charmaine returned a polite smile. "It was a last-minute decision. I apologize for not informing you in advance, Mr. Zimmer."
"Not at all!" Paxton quickly waved it off. He couldn't help but recall the nerve- wracking moment and silently wiped a bit of imaginary sweat from his brow.
Good thing they hadn't informed him in advance-knowing how low-key Charmaine and the Elders were, he might have completely overlooked her and unknowingly offended a big shot!
Basil chuckled. "My student takes after me... ahem, well, all of us old folks. We don't like being in the spotlight. If it weren't absolutely necessary, she wouldn't have stepped forward."noveldrama
The others nodded politely in agreement. Then Basil smoothly shifted the conversation. “So, if you want my apprentice to be part of this show, you'll have to work a little harder to convince her."
Charmaine was startled.
Oh, so the trap is waiting here for me.
She raised an eyebrow. "The investor is the Whites? Freya White?"
Basil smiled. "That's right."
Sensing her thoughts, Paxton added, "The investor was chosen by the higher- ups. The White family is one of the country's top medical families-they provide talent and import medical equipment for hospitals nationwide. Many hospitals in the West region were built using their charity foundation's funds. This project is essentially a goodwill move, giving the Whites some well-deserved recognition.” "I see." Charmaine nodded, then asked Basil, "So, do you want me to be on the show?"
"Just for one episode."
Basil's white brows lifted as he grinned, clearly trying to please her. "They need someone young, impressive, and credible-someone who can draw in viewers. And my dear student, who could be a better choice than you?"
Everyone present was well aware of Basil's unparalleled medical skills. His only true disciple, the highly praised yet elusive Robin, was bound to capture the attention of a broad audience, especially younger viewers.
