As Kathy listened to them, her face became paler. If the hospital needed someone to be responsible for
this accident, it must be her.
And Joseph insisted on performing this operation... Was it because of her?
To prevent her from being punished?
But soon this thought was ruled out by her again. Joseph was supposed to protect Ella, right?
After all, Ella was also involved in this matter.
Moreover, he and Ella had been very close recently. Maybe they were already together...
Kathy was quite confused at the moment. She had so many different thoughts, but she still didn't
understand.
The operation had already begun, so she immediately ran to the office nervously, where the projector
was showing the video of the operation.
Kathy was frightened while seeing every movement of Joseph.
Benedict was explaining his operation to everyone. All the people were holding their breath.
If the operation went well, Joseph would be considered a hero of the hospital.
Even the dean also came here. This was simply risking his career.
Finally, when the operation lasted for 55 minutes, Joseph finished the operation.
Only when the patient woke up today could the operation be considered a real success.
Now the work was half done.
Kathy breathed a sigh of relief, sitting stiffly. When the patient was transferred to the intensive care unit,
she immediately followed.
But as soon as the patient's family saw her, they couldn't help but scold, "Why are you, an assistant
physician, still here? Hasn't the hospital fired you yet? You can only bring harm to people!"
During this time, Kathy had already accustomed to these hurtful remarks. Now she was only worried
about the patient's condition and Joseph...
Not long after, Joseph also came out of the operating room. On this day, everyone was waiting for the
patient to wake up.
Kathy left the ward. Not far away, Ella was walking over in her high heels.
Seeing Kathy, she smiled and asked naturally, "Has Joseph finished the operation?"
"Yeah," Kathy murmured.
"Nothing happened, right?"
"We won't know until tomorrow."
At this moment, Joseph came out. Ella immediately greeted him.
Joseph's eyes went cold while seeing her. "I'm working."
"I know, I brought you lunch. You might not have eaten anything yet."
"Yeah," Joseph responded, walking past Kathy.
He didn't take a look at Kathy again.
Kathy lowered her head, gradually clenching her fists.
It took her a long while to finally calm down. When she looked up, Benedict sat down beside her.
Benedict could see clearly that she had no interaction with Joseph just now.
"Couple quarreled?"
Kathy was silent before saying, "We are not a couple."
"I know that Joseph has always been so faithful," Benedict said.
Kathy frowned. Maybe people would change.
She now believed in what Joseph once said—I wouldn't like you.
...
Benedict went back to school soon. Kathy didn't need to stay in the hospital anymore, but she wanted
to know the patient's condition at any time, so she stayed.
But the office was not big. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Joseph and Ella sitting together.
Kathy paused for a short while.
Soon, she pretended that she hadn't seen it and sat on the sofa aside.
When Ella saw her, she glanced at Joseph and asked in a quiet voice, "Ms. Kathy, do you want to stay
here?"
"Yeah," Kathy said coldly.
"I am now the nurse taking care of this patient. It is enough for me to stay here."
Ella was wearing a nurse's uniform. She had recently applied for a transfer to this hospital. Because of
having some connections, she was allowed to work here.
Upon hearing this, Kathy frowned.
She understood that Ella didn't want to see her.
"Don't worry, I won't disturb you two to show affection." Kathy's tone remained indifferent.
"Ella, you should leave this afternoon," Joseph ordered.
"Why?" Ella was reluctant.
"Your formalities have not been completed yet."
"But the dean said I could start working."
"You haven't passed the basic training." Joseph saw through her.
Although Ella had successfully got the job, she failed the training. Therefore, she was unable to
officially start work.
She was a little annoyed. Why did Joseph expose her...
Biting her lips, Ella stubbornly said, "But I can still handle some work."
"Don't be stubborn."
Although the two seemed to be quarreling, Joseph didn't seem to be really angry.
Kathy saw what they did. It looked as if they were flirting.
Finally unable to sit still, Kathy left the office.
She used to hope that Joseph could treat her like that.
He could treat her well. He could also do that to another woman.
Kathy laughed mockingly.
In the office, Ella couldn't argue with Joseph, so she could only leave the hospital, feeling disappointed.
At the gate, Kathy was waiting for a car. Ella came up to her.
"You don't know that, right? Joseph and I will get married next month," Ella said triumphantly.
Kathy looked rather calm. Hearing what she said, she just replied, "Really? Congratulations."
"You and Joseph have divorced. Don't think about him anymore. He is mine." Ella looked at her
solemnly.
This year, she had never stopped following Joseph. Therefore, she knew that Joseph and Kathy still
connected after they got divorced.
She didn't want them to remain connected in the future.
"Don't you believe him?" Kathy curled her lips.
It seemed that Joseph didn't make Ella feel secured.
"Of course I believe in Joseph. I just don't believe you! You're such a flirt!" Ella cursed angrily.
She was young and had been protected by so many people since she was a child, so she never
restrained what she wanted to say.
"Girl, you can't just control someone easily. He can abandon me, and one day, he can also abandon
you." As she finished, Kathy didn't stay anymore and quickly got on the bus.
Ella was so furious that she stamped her feet.
She wasn't Kathy. She could help Joseph in all aspects of his career. She would definitely become
Joseph's wife!
In the evening, Joseph went to the patient's room. The assistant had just come to inform him that the
patient was awake.
"Professor Joseph, thank you so much..." There was a big change in the attitude of the patient's family.
They became much more friendly.
Joseph was always indifferent. After examining the patient, he said while writing the medical records,
"The operation went well, but the patient was still very weak after the operation. Now that he wakes up,
we still have to pay attention to his condition every day."
"We will watch him in turns..."
As he left the ward, John was already waiting.
Joseph took off his white coat. The tiredness in his eyes was obvious.
"Mr. Joseph, go home and have a rest tonight," John persuaded him.
John was really afraid that his boss would collapse at any time, for he hadn't slept for many days.
"OK," Joseph answered. Before leaving, he ordered John again, "Send all Kathy's medical records to
the residence."
