Chapter 901
Bearing with an intense migraine, the director of the hospital said to her, “Come with us to the operating theater.
We can talk about it on the way!”
“Okay!”
As the two of them walked into the staff elevator to get to the operating theater, the director told Sally everything
from start to finish. After learning about how Fia got stabbed with a knife, Sally could not help but feel sad and
worried for her.
“These people from high society… tsk!” The director kept on complaining, “I’ve done everything I could to keep this
under the press’s radar but… Let’s hope no one outside of the hospital catches wind of this. Or else… our hospital
would have to bear the brunt of it!”
Hearing this, Sally had a hunch that her brother had something to do with all this.
“Sir, I have to make a call.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“This isn’t the time for that! You can make the call after we’ve handled Mrs. Maxwell’s. wound! Mr. Maxwell is in a
foul mood right now! We can’t afford to stall!!
When they were treating, Fia’s wound, Conrad insisted on entering the operating theater and keeping an eye on
them all the way.
Being her doctor, Sally put aside her feelings about the Maxwells and calmly briefed her colleagues and nurses
about the patient’s situation. Due to Fia being pregnant, they had to apply the anaesthetic to the wound. This meant
that Fia would be fully awake while they treated the wound.
After the briefing, Sally added, “The knife could have come into contact with the bones on her shoulder. Please pull
out the knife with extreme caution so as to not damage the bone.”
“Understood, Doctor Sally!”
Clenching his fists, Conrad’s eyes became red from the intense anger that was overwhelming
him.
Blinking, Fia beamed at him brightly and said, “Don’t worry. I’m fine! It doesn’t hurt at all.”
Conrad’s eyes welled with tears upon hearing this. What a silly girl! There was no way she would not feel pain at all.
Yet, she tried to soothe and comfort him, fearing that he would seek revenge on Garrett and Clarice.
As her right shoulder was the injured side, Fia extended her left hand to grab Conrad’s arm. Seeing this, Conrad
walked close so she could reach him.
Maintaining the smile on her face, she said, “Don’t be sad, honey.”
Conrad nodded as his tears blurred his vision. “I’d not feel sad if you heal up quickly.”
“Okay!” Fia said as she maintained her smile, locking her eyes on Conrad’s face so as to not look at the surgeon
pulling the knife out of her shoulder.
A dozen minutes later, Conrad glanced at the surgeon who was stitching up her wound, worrying that the
anaesthetic would lose its effect halfway and cause Fia pain.
Squatting down, Conrad covered her eyes with his hand. “Don’t act so rash next time, alright? I could have
completely evaded the knife.”
“But what if you couldn’t do it in time?” Fia said dejectedly, “I can’t allow that to happen. I have to protect you.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTears welled in Sally’s eyes as she heard their conversation. Why were these two not allowed to have a normal,
peaceful life? Why did they have to suffer all these untoward events?
“Alright, it’s done!”
Having finished treating Fia’s wound with her colleague, Sally stood up and spoke in relief. “Thank you.” Conrad
thanked her earnestly.
Sally nodded as she glanced at Fia with a heavy heart. “We’ll admit her to a ward and observe the wound for a
while.”
Turning her face to Sally, Fia gave an innocent, pretty smile at her. “Thank you, doctor!” Feeling a pang of hurt in
her heart, Sally asked, “Fia, don’t you remember me?”
Fia frowned as she tightened her grip on Conrad’s arm. Seeing this, Conrad caressed her face, trying to soften the
frown on her face. “Don’t worry. You’ll remember everything eventually.” Seeing the sadness in Sally’s eyes, Fia
could not help but to feel bad for her. “I’m sorry…”
This doctor was so kind to her. She had to be a good person. Not only that, it seemed that she was her attending
physician in this hospital yet she could not remember her at all. So she felt the need to apologize to Sally.
