Chapter 612 I’m A Tanner
But later… Martha, now in her middle age, had an imposing demeanor. She gently shook. her head “Thankfully, we have you. Dr. Shaw. Otherwise, our hospital would not have any promising young talent after his incident.”
Is this why you tried to frame me?
Cherise silently scoffed in her heart.
However, outwardly, she sighed, “Ms. Lane, Isaac used to be your student, and the two of you were close. Can you try to persuade him?”
Please urge him to produce the evidence from back then… Even though I know the evidence. is fake, others aren’t. If he brings it out, he can clear his name.”
“Seeing such a promising young talent go to waste is disheartening.”
Martha furrowed her brows, “But Cherise, if Isaac manages to clear his name, what about you?”
Cherise smiled and replied, “Martha, you probably don’t know, but my father is at businessman. He has always hoped that I would take over his business.”
Martha’s hand, holding the teacup, paused abruptly.
“Do you mean… your family…”
“My family is affluent.”
Cherise smiled faintly. “Martha, since we’ve known each other for over two years, I see no reason to conceal this from you.”
“My surname is Shaw, solely because my adoptive father’s surname is Shaw. But my actual surname is Tanner.”
The office suddenly fell silent.
Martha stared at Cherise for a long time.
“Do you mean… the European Tanner family?”

Yet, she dares to claim to be a Tanner.
She must think quite highly of herself!
Martha maintained her composure while ridiculing Cherise in her mind. She sighed before. replying with a smile, “I never knew you come from such a prestigious background!”
“Since you wish to return home and take over the family business, the medical profession is no longer good enough for you. In that case, you’ll be doing a good deed in a*sisting Isaac to overturn the case and enable him to return to the hospital.”
Cherise noticed the contempt and disdain in Martha’s eyes.
She responded with a faint smile. “That’s why your a*sistance is crucial. I’m not in the position to persuade Isaac.”
“I understand. I understand!” Martha nodded and grasped Cherise’s hand excitedly. “Ill persuade Isaac for you!”
Cherise feigned a smile.
