Chapter 1434

Usually, Nina would eventually relent. Now that Nina had thrown the documents and bills at her, Annarealized that Nina was not going to yield.

Even though she was not willing to stay in a ward with other patients, she did not want to die either.

She began to gulp mouthfuls of air and pretended that she was in agony. “Nina… you ingrate!” Shesaid as she pointed a finger at Nina.

Nina remained impassive as she looked at her mother. “It’s either you stay in this ward, or you canleave the hospital!” She said insistently.

Jean could hear the determination in her voice. He shoved her away and said, “Get lost! Do you wantto see your mother die of anger?”

Nina stumbled backward, though she managed to regain her footing. Jean took the opportunity to ringthe bell at the front of the bed.

The nurse quickly came in. “What’s wrong?” She asked.

“Get the doctor. My mom isn’t feeling well!” Jean said.

The nurse immediately stepped out of the ward and called for Anna’s doctor.

The doctor came in and saw that Anna’s face was pale. He got the nurse to help Anna lie flat, thendrew the curtains for an examination.

Nina stood calmly outside the curtains. She was not worried at all.

Jean was also standing there, looking at her. He could not help but curse when he saw her that way, “Iwon’t forgive you if anything happens to Mom.”

“All she wants is to stay in a private ward. There’s nothing wrong with her,” Nina said, feeling a littledefeated. None of her family members cared about her situation.

Her father had moved to another city under the excuse of a job because he could not stand Anna andJean. He lived a frugal life with minimal wages, and he did not care what happened to Nina.

Anna and Nina were like leeches. They mercilessly exploited her, but Nina could not get rid of them.

Jean clenched his fists, preparing to teach his younger sister a lesson. Before he could say anything,the curtains opened.

“How’s my mom, Doc?” Jean asked.novelbin

The doctor put his stethoscope away and said, “She’s fine. Her blood pressure was slightly highbecause she was emotionally agitated. Now that she’s calm again, her blood pressure will return tonormal in no time. You’ll have to make sure that she doesn’t get agitated again.”

Anna pretended to sound weak. “Doctor, I don’t think the air in the ward is good for my health. Can I bemoved to a private ward?”

The doctor glanced at Nina and Jean. He was roughly aware of the patient’s condition, and the patienthad thrown a tantrum when the nurse brought her to the normal ward.

“There is a shortage of private wards now. If the patient’s condition isn’t critical, we recommend thatthey stay in a normal ward,” the doctor said.

“Isn’t my condition critical enough?” Anna asked. She thought that she deserved special treatment.

“Your condition is stable. Let’s leave the limited resources to those who really need it,” the doctor said.To ensure that she had no other excuse, he said, “If you need anything, you can ring the bell.”

Anna looked at the other two patients in the ward, feeling quite humiliated that the doctor was not onher side.

Nina saw that her mother had almost calmed down. She went over and picked up the documents fromthe bed.

Anna did not say anything.

After Nina packed up, she said, “I’ll hire a care worker for you.”

Jean grabbed her shoulders when he heard that. “Aren’t you supposed to take care of Mom yourself? Acare worker won’t do!”

“I need to go to work so that I can earn money. If you think that a care worker can’t do a good job, whydon’t you take care of Mom yourself? It’s not like you have anything else to do at home,” Nina saidwhile giving him the side-eye. He did not contribute anything, yet he was so demanding.

Jean seemed taken aback when he heard Nina’s suggestion. “Do I look like I have the time?”

“You don’t have money, and you don’t have time. Why don’t you keep your mouth shut?” Nina could notbe bothered to be civil toward her brother. She turned around and left the ward.

Jean felt thoroughly humiliated, and he had nowhere to release his anger. He turned to look at Anna onthe bed and said, “Mom! Can’t you teach her some manners?”

“Not when I’m like this, Jean. I wish I don’t have to worry about the two of you,” Anna said weakly. Herblood pressure was still high.

Jean tried to absolve himself from any blame. “You don’t have to worry about me, Mom.”

“Jean, you’re already an adult, but you still can’t bring a decent girlfriend home. I wonder if I’ll still bealive on your wedding day,” Anna said with a sigh. She could not bear to scold her son, but she wasworried about his future.

Anna did not like the fact that Jean was a jobless bum. The women he brought home had unsavorycharacters too.

“Don’t worry, Mom. You’ll soon have a decent daughter-in-law!” Jean said.

“You’re only saying that just to make me happy, right? Those women only want our money. You’d betternot have any relation with them,” Anna said patiently.

Jean nodded. “I’m not interested in those women anymore, Mom. I have a new target now. I’ve heardthat she’s a doctor. Not bad, right?”

‘Doctor?’

Anna’s eyes widened with delight. “Really? When are you bringing her home? Does she work in thishospital?”

“I don’t know her that well yet. She’s Nina’s friend, and I heard Nina calling her ‘Doctor,’ so I think thatshe’s a doctor. You like knowledgeable girls, right? You’ll have to help me persuade Nina so that she’llgive me that woman’s phone number. Once I can contact her, she’ll soon be your daughter-in-law!”Jean said.

“Alright, I’ll ask her for it, but this isn’t the time. Your sister is still angry. Once you have her number, youcan marry her, and I’ll have a plump little grandson,” Anna said, not considering if the woman would likeJean.

The other two patients in the ward overheard their conversation and could not help but be amazed byhow oblivious they were. It was as though that woman would marry her if he had her number.

That hooligan was not going to get a doctor as his girlfriend!

In fact, they did not even think that the well-dressed young woman who came into the ward later wasthat hooligan’s younger sister.

A short while later, Nina came back to the ward with a care worker. Anna instantly pulled a long faceand pretended that she was angry.

Nina did not care. She told the care worker what the doctor told her, then took her handbag and left.
