Fearing that the assistant might have hurt him, Shawn's dark eyes lifted with a hint of mockery and pity. "You're not the only one who dislikes me, but in the end, I married her.""You!" Roland was so infuriated that he was about to roll up his sleeves and strike Shawn, but the assistant swiftly intervened."Good dogs don't get in the way!" Roland cursed.The assistant ignored him and continued, "Dr. Roland, I'm doing you a favor here. If you had really attacked him earlier, your hands would probably be crippled by now."After his words, he pushed Roland heavily, and the latter slammed into the wall. Overwhelmed with pain and discomfort, Roland clutched his mouth and began to cough uncontrollably.However, his strong dislike for Shawn was not easy to dissipate."Shawn, I don't care how you sweet-talked Ivy into marrying you, but I can bet that you're not even good enough to shine her shoes! You'd better swear that your legs can stand, and you'll survive the surgery's three stages. Oth
Maya, seeing that it was Ivy, immediately responded, "Doctor Jones, your father and a group of people from his village are causing trouble."Her tone carried a mix of disdain and contempt for Ivy.The staff at the County Clinic viewed Ivy, an up-and-coming doctor with great potential, as an annoyance. They were already dealing with numerous patients every day, and now they had to deal with the unsophisticated folks from Harry’s village, who were making a scene.Maya felt this situation was unfortunate.She explained, "Doctor Jones, Zedd has dislocated his shoulder. He was brought in by Harry and the people from his village. Nurse Zaya tried to follow the standard procedures, but Harry thought it was too slow and slapped her in the face. Now, they are causing a scene, demanding expedited treatment."Maya had just finished speaking when Harry's curses could be heard, "My Zedd, is the sole heir of the Jones family. If any harm comes to him due to your incompetence, I'll dig up your ances
Ivy picked up her phone and called the police directly. "Relatives of patients at County Clinic are causing a disturbance, insulting medical staff, refusing to pay medical bills, and their behavior is extremely bad. Please come and mediate."Upon seeing Ivy calling the police, Harry rushed over to her, snatched her phone, and threw it forcefully onto the ground, shattering it into pieces.Ivy didn't get angry and indicated to him to look at the camera on the wall. She said in a calm voice, "I'll make you pay for my phone as well.""Ivy!" Harry glared at her, anger evident in his bulging eyes, and his face became even redder. He raised his hand several times, seemingly wanting to strike her. But the presence of the camera warned him that if he continued, he wouldn't just face a reprimand from the police. It might be difficult to get out in less than ten days or more.Thinking about this, Harry reluctantly lowered his hand.At this point, Grandpa and Grandma Jones suddenly threw themsel
Ivy followed his advice and opened the report. Despite her preparedness, seeing the paternity test result showing a 99.9% match in father-son relationship still evoked a sarcastic feeling.Roland noticed her paling complexion and asked, "Is there anything I can help with? Just let me know.""Senior, thank you for your assistance," she said with a hint of gratitude. Carefully, she put the document away. "Please allow me to take a day off."After this long ordeal, she needed a day of rest.Once Roland left, Ivy scanned all the information she had gathered about Harry and Amara, forwarded it to the police, and reported Harry for fraud once more.After finishing everything, Ivy left the clinic. As she exited County Clinic's gates, she noticed Assistant Luke's car parked outside. The car window was rolled down, revealing Shawn's face."Why did you come?" Ivy's heart warmed, and she got into the car with a smile.Shawn took her bag and asked gently, "How is everything going?"Glancing towar
"What?!"Harry's eyes widened, and he was furious. He shouted at her, pointing his finger at her nose, "I'm your father, it's only right that you pay for me!""Alright," Ivy replied firmly, pointing at the woman behind him and saying, "She's your son's mother. I'll split the cost with her, 3,500 each."When Harry heard this, he became even angrier. He rushed up to Ivy and yelled in her face, "They have no source of income, how can they give you money?""Right." Ivy suddenly remembered, "Over the years, Mom gave her money every month, and you gave her a lot of living expenses too. Those accounts need to be settled."As she spoke, Ivy glanced at the Hermes bag in the woman's hands, a mocking smile playing on her lips.For all these years, not only did he never contribute a single cent to the family, but he also pressured his mother into giving so much money under the guise of atonement. Ivy had to make them pay back double for this."She gave birth to my son, isn't it normal that I supp
The following day, family and friends arrived at the clinic early in the morning.Jasson Brown, watched Ivy administer anesthesia to Shawn. He saw Shawn's consciousness gradually shift from being awake to falling asleep, his thoughts racing. It couldn't help but remind him of how pitifully Shawn had looked when he was injured in a car accident many years ago, and his heart sank."It's been many years, and I'm once again seeing Shawn so vulnerable."Jasson's anxiety began to intensify, and he struggled to breathe and his heart raced, leaning against a corner as he took a long time to regain his composure. He turned to his special assistant and asked, "You think... he won't die, right? Back then, he nearly died. No, you tell me, he won't die, right?!"The special assistant was also trembling with nervousness and fear, more so than when he had started the company with Mr. Tate from scratch."Although we have top doctors from DT Investment waiting nearby, ready to intervene if there's any
"Where did all these reporters come from? Get them out of here!" Roland bellowed as he rushed out of the intensive care unit, waving at the hospital's security to disperse the reporters. "The traffic inspection detachment is next door. Go shake them up!"Ivy was shielded by Emma and Grandma Winston and she was unharmed. However, she continued to hear the offensive insults from the reporters.Ivy stood her ground, gazing directly at the accusing reporter. She spoke with an emotionless tone, "You've got two things wrong."The reporter was taken aback, torn between anger and frustration. "What did I get wrong?"With a slight parting of her red lips, Ivy calmly corrected him, "First, the police had determined my innocence regarding the incident from three years ago, and my medical license wasn't revoked. How do you claim that my medical skills are subpar? Your allegations could be considered defamation, and I can sue you for it.""Second," Ivy continued in a cold tone, as the reporter rem
Ivy put her phone aside and started to focus on planning the second phase of Shawn's surgery."Don't you see it yet?" This day, Roland brought doctors to reevaluate her and announced that she could leave the hospital and return to the clinic."Rumors say that the city is selecting the most promising young doctors in City A, and that old man Bob Alter is trying to boost his daughter-in-law's candidacy!" Ivy chuckled. "But why does supporting her require defaming me?""Because you're shining right now," Roland said mysteriously, "thanks to DT Investment's operation. You're now considered the most promising female orthopedic surgeon in the entire City A. If Shawn's surgery is a major success, your achievements will be world-class.""Senior, this is the surgical plan for the second phase of Shawn's operation. Can you take a look to see if any adjustments are needed?" She handed the plan to Roland, showing little interest in the earlier conversation.Roland stared at her and gave her a rep
