Chapter 432

Leah’s face was flushed from the heated argument. “You need to be more sensible. His illness won’t be

cured that easily. Even with the best doctors in the world, his condition won’t improve overnight.”

The man pointed a finger at her and raised his voice, “Do you even know who’s in there? Even if he’s

not getting better, he shouldn’t be getting worse!”

“His condition is heavily influenced by his emotional state. You might have agitated him, causing his

condition to deteriorate.

The man scoffed. “Bullsh*t! Even if it worsens, it shouldn’t be like this. He was speaking normally this

afternoon, and now his face is suddenly paralyzed. Is this the quality of care in this hospital?” novelbin

Pearl couldn’t help but click her tongue. “That’s right. This is the best hospital in Hazleton. It’s quite

famous.”

Thinking she wasn’t speaking too loudly, Pearl didn’t realize that Leah had heard everything and

pointed directly at her. “You think our treatments are ineffective? Well, if you think you can do better,

why don’t you give it a try? She’s a doctor too, and apparently, she’s quite good at it.”

Pearl froze. What did this have to do with her? She had no intention of getting involved in this mess,

but just when she thought she could escape, someone called out to her.

“If she’s better than the doctor’s here, we’ll let her take over!”

Pearl couldn’t fathom why she had become the subject of this wager.

The person approached her quickly, gazed at Pearl, and then made a polite bow. “Hello, ma’am. Could

you please examine this man?”

“1. I can’t.” Even if she could, she didn’t want to be forced to do it.

“You can,

“I can’t.”

“You can!”

“I can’t!”

ma’am.”

After Pearl’s rejection, the person’s eyes welled up, and he pleaded quietly, “Ma’am, I have parents,

children, and now a sick wife. I need to earn a living to support them. Can you please agree?”

“How many people have told this same story?” Pearl was amazed at how effortlessly he could spin a

tale.

The person scratched his head awkwardly. “Just a few, but it never worked.”

Richard glanced at her pitiful expression and said, “You’re not well either. There’s no need to help

others.”

Pearl appeared as if she were gearing up for an argument. “Saving a life is more important than

anything else. I’ll do it.”

Upon entering the room, Leah started taunting Pearl. “Do you want to check the charts so you don’t

make things worse?”

“If you know what you should do, why don’t you just do it?”

Leah seemed taken aback by the sudden attack and begrudgingly handed over the charts.

Pearl went through them and then looked at the unconscious man in the bed. “You’ve been treating him

for a month, and his condition is worsening. Yet you’re blaming the patient?”

Leah clenched her fist. “We’re genuinely trying to help him, so how can it be our fault? The patient has

a rare ailment. You’re just too arrogant. Why don’t you try treating him then?” She was interested in

what Pearl would do.

Pearl inspected the man’s face, and her mocking expression faded. “Is there a remote for the air

conditioning in the room?” The man grew frustrated. “They took it away, saying it’s centralized. They

won’t allow us to adjust it.”
