I run a clinic in the United States

Chapter 79 Murphy’s mother’s decision

When Murphy's mother came in, the vice president was leaning with his legs on the desk, watching a short video leisurely.

Murphy's mother briefly explained the matter, saying that her father was sick and needed to take three days off.

The vice president didn't even look her in the eye, and didn't even pause the video, but just said lightly, "No!"

Then he complained: "You are so busy, why do you have the nerve to ask for leave?"

"But, my dad is sick, it may be serious!" Murphy's mother said.

"Hmph, what does it have to do with me? That's your own business! My request is that you do a good job in the project you are responsible for! Understand?" The vice president said in a very impatient tone, rolling his eyes while talking.

Murphy's mother: "..." She was speechless immediately, thinking about how to persuade her, hoping that the other party could give her a leave of absence.

At this time, another young and beautiful girl came in to ask for leave, saying that she was going to Hawaii for vacation, which would take seven days!
Murphy's mother thought to herself, you are busier than me with that project, and you still need seven days?How is it possible!
Unexpectedly, the vice president laughed and said, "Hawaii is a great place. The climate is much better than Los Angeles. Go and have fun!"

"Peter, you are so kind! I love you! I will bring you a small gift then!"

"Then thank you in advance!"

Then, the young and beautiful girl went out happily!
At this moment, Murphy's mother's heart was filled with turmoil. She forced herself to hold back her anger and said in as calm a tone as possible: "Pete, why can she take leave but I can't? I ask myself, can I do a better job than her?"

Peter sneered: "What's wrong if I don't approve your leave?"

My heart said that you are an old woman, and you still want to compare with other young girls? !
Murphy's mother couldn't bear it anymore, and said directly: "I'm sorry, I'm leaving my job, from now on!"

After saying that, he turned around and left without looking back!
The vice president was confused, jumped up and chased after him, and shouted loudly: "You haven't finished your work today!"

However, Murphy's mother left immediately, and there was nothing to deal with.

California does not support idlers, so the boss can naturally fire employees at will. No matter how long the employee has worked, there is no legal obligation to compensate them. However, why don’t employees leave whenever they want?
"Elijah, my father had a gastrointestinal endoscopy this afternoon. The problem may be serious."

After Murphy's mother came out of the company, she called her husband and talked about his old father's condition.

However, before the words were finished, her husband said impatiently: "I'm busy, why don't I talk about it at night?"

Murphy's mother said: "I want to go back to San Francisco right away, and I'll leave right away!"

"Then you go, let me know if there is any news." Soon, her husband hung up the phone.

Murphy's mother: "..." Her original intention was to want her husband to accompany her.However, it is obvious that people do not have this idea.He didn't even care about his illness.

Originally, she wanted to tell her husband that she was unemployed, so he probably wouldn't care.

Murphy's mother wanted to cry a little bit, but quickly wiped away her tears, pulled herself together, and hurried home.

Her current husband is not Murphy's father.

When Murphy was young, her father died unfortunately in order to protect her.So Murphy's mother later married another man, and her relationship was just so-so.After all, it is really difficult to find true love in a second marriage.

As for the child, with Murphy's precedent, he didn't dare to ask for it anymore.And the man doesn't seem to like children very much.

Murphy's mother feels that this marriage seems to be dispensable, and the old parents and Murphy are more important.

I hurried home, packed up a bit, and went straight to the airport alone with my suitcase.

San Francisco International Airport is about 13 miles away from the city. After getting off the plane, Murphy's mother wanted to take a taxi there, but she finally got in line. When she heard that she was going to downtown San Francisco, she immediately refused the ride!
Murphy's mother was so confused!

Then, she had to take the subway to go.After arriving at the destination station and exiting the station, I realized what was going on!
I saw that "firecrackers" and various battles were everywhere on the street outside and in the park.

A bullet flew over with a "whoosh~", hit not far from her, and shattered a glass, so scared that Murphy's mother hurried back to the subway station again!
"My God, God, although Los Angeles is chaotic, it has never been this chaotic?" Murphy's mother hid in a corner, listening to the sound of firecrackers outside, trembling.

She thought about it and called the police.

The police told her to avoid as much as possible to ensure her own safety.And then... there is no more.

Murphy’s mother: “…”

"God, I don't know how Murphy and the others live here?"

She had no choice but to call her daughter.

Murphy was lying in bed reading a book, and the occasional sound of firecrackers in the distance could not disturb her.

She lived on the second floor, and her grandparents lived on the first floor.Grandpa had a tiring day today and fell asleep quickly. Grandma was guarding and taking care of him.

Although the law and order outside is not good, but with the door closed, it can barely be regarded as a small and safe world.

Although the roads in the community where they live are broken, the security forces are still good.All the money spent on building roads was used to improve defenses.

When the phone rang, Murphy took it and pressed the connect button. Before he could speak, gunfire came from the other end of the phone.

"Mom?" Murphy was shocked!The caller showed her mother, but there was a gunshot. She thought something happened to her mother!
Fortunately, her mother's terrified voice soon came: "Murphy, I'm trapped in the subway station in Balboa Park..."

"Mom, have you come to San Francisco?" Murphy couldn't believe it.Why didn't you say a word, came all of a sudden?
If I said it, I would definitely not suggest you come here at night!
After all, Murphy has been here for several days and knows that the nights in this city are not for normal people to haunt.

"Well, I have already called the police, but no police came to rescue me." On the other end of the phone, my mother's voice sounded a little desperate.

Murphy: "..."

"How about I go back again, or find a hotel to stay in another place in the Bay Area, and come back early tomorrow morning." Murphy's mother said.

Murphy nodded, it seemed like a good idea.

However, before she could speak, her mother changed her mind: "I'm sorry, Murphy, behind me, it seems, there will be no subway tonight!"

Because of a loud noise, the ground shook, and it seemed that a tunnel collapsed not far away!
This thing is making a big fuss!

Murphy was silent for a moment: "Then you wait where you are, and I'll find someone to pick you up."

"Ah?" Murphy's mother was taken aback for a moment, and then asked, "Who are you looking for?"

She just called her daughter, not because she wanted Murphy to save her, but because she wanted to inform Murphy that she was in Balboa Park.

Because, she thought, if something happened, her daughter would come to claim the body tomorrow. She didn't want to die silently like this, without even knowing a single relative.

As for the parents?Getting older!And the husband?How can it be reliable!

Only her daughter is the closest and dearest to her, and the person she wants to contact the most when encountering a life crisis!

However, she never expected that Murphy would have a solution?
Murphy said, "I'll find Dr. Zhou." Then, he hung up the phone.

Murphy's mother: "..." Who is Dr. Zhou?Why can you help my daughter for nothing?
My daughter, won’t she be cheated?She is simple-minded and autistic, and does not understand the dangers of the outside world!

Mother Murphy began to pray.

……

Murphy lay down, staring at the ceiling in a daze, motionless, like a silicone doll.

A strange fragrance wafted from the pillow, and Murphy blinked his eyes. Finally, he picked up the phone and dialed it.

　Thanks to "Forgotten Honor" for the reward!
