Chapter 730 Henry’s Secret
“The soup is ready. I’ll bring you some to your room.” Kendra tried to distract Abel from the bitter topic.
“I would appreciate that,” said Abel. He put Quincy back onto the stroller and went upstairs. The food was ready when Abel finished washing.
“Eat it while it’s hot,” said Kendra. Abel thanked her.
Kendra left the room quietly. She was in the kitchen getting some soup for Quincy when her phone rang. Kendra trembled slightly when she remembered Henry got her number in the afternoon.
Could it be him? Kendra looked at her phone. She recognized the number, even though she never saved it on the phone.
Kendra quickly closed the kitchen door. “Henry, could you leave me alone? We are divorced!” said Kendra in a soft voice.
“I’m not interested in you anymore. I just have something to ask from you,” said Henry.
“Just say it already.” Kendra frowned.
“I løst my job and have been looking for a new one,” said Henry.
“You are a surgeon! How did you lose your job?” asked Kendra.
“I was fired from the hospital because I took a bribe from a patient,” said Henry.
“What does that have to do with me?” Kendra was annoyed.
“I want you to help me get a job,” said Henry.
Kendra scoffed. “Henry, do you really think I am capable enough to get you any job?”
“Of course, you can. You work for Mr. Abel, and he owns the Ryker Hospital. Can you talk to him to get me the Head of Surgical Department position?” asked Henry.
“Are you really that naive, Henry?” Kendra sighed.
“I’m not asking a lot for salary. It would be much lower than the ransom from kidnapping you and Quincy,” said Henry shamelessly.
Kendra felt a chill run down her spine.

Henry continued. “However, I prefer to be a doctor. The Head of the Surgical department earns quite well. That would be better than a wanted criminal.”
“Henry, I can’t help you. I’m just a nanny, and I don’t have any influence on Mr. Abel’s business,” explained
Kendra.
“Just tell Abel that he would gain something if he could help me,” said Henry.
“What do you mean?” asked Kendra.
“Just tell him I’ll tell him a secret if he lets me work at Ryker Hospital,” said Abel.
“What secret do you know?” asked Kendra skeptically.
“That’s none of your business. I’ll bring the secret to my grave if Abel does not give me the position. After all, I’m too scared to go against that person,” said Henry.
“Who’s ‘that person’?” asked Kendra, but Henry hung up the phone.
Kendra tried to figure out what Henry had told her, but she gave up after a while. She continued to feed soup to Quincy.
Half an hour later, Kendra went to collect dishes from Abel’s room. She found that Abel had only drunk half of the soup.
“Mr. Abel, you should eat more. You have lost plenty of weight the past few days,” said Kendra in concern.
“I’m fine. My stomach problem is not as bad as before,” said Abel.
“Please take care of yourself. Ms. Louise would be sad to see you in this condition when she comes back,” said Kendra.
