Chapter 1408 Will Not Stand Idly By
The attending doctor had never expected a Chanaean woman to have such exquisite medical skills. He stared at
Arielle’s every move fervently, not daring to take his eyes away for even a second. Right then, he was exceedingly
grateful that he was the attending doctor of the patient before him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have the chance to
observe the operation.
“How’s my grandfather, Ms. Moore?” Sonia instantly asked with a hopeful look when Arielle walked out of the
operating theater. After all, the patient’s family was the one who would be most worried.
Arielle was rather tired after conducting a four-hour-plus high-precision operation, but she still flashed her a smile.
“Don’t worry, for he’s fine now.”
Only after Sonia heard that did her heart that had been lodged in her throat settle back into her chest.
Actually, she was only trying her luck when she invited Arielle over to treat her grandfather. Ultimately, Arielle
merely chose to teach orthopedics, oncology, and traditional Chanaean medicine. Her grandfather’s illness, on the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtother hand, had nothing to do with all that.
To her surprise, the result was as good as she anticipated, and her grandfather was then out of the woods.
“Thank you, Ms. Moore! Thank you so much!” She stepped forward in jubilance and hugged Arielle tightly. At that
very moment, she really respected the latter from the depths of her heart.
Verily, her arrogance and haughtiness at school was nowhere to be seen anymore.
Aaron had some official business to attend to that day, so he only went to the school after he had finished handling
everything. When he arrived at the school, he learned that Arielle had gone to the hospital with Sonia.
Without a moment’s delay, he went straight to the hospital. Unexpectedly, he was greeted by the sight of Sonia
hugging Arielle when he reached the doors of the operating theatre.
In a flash, his expression darkened. He marched over to Arielle with huge strides and glowered at her with a grim
expression on his face.
When Sonia’s father spotted Aaron, he thought that the latter was there to visit his father, never once expecting
the man to be there to look for Arielle. He promptly halted in his tracks.
Arielle had no idea why Aaron came over and was regarding her with a dour expression for no reason.
At that moment, she merely felt uneasy all over at Sonia’s hug.
She wasn’t used to hugging people she wasn’t close with, so she surreptitiously pushed Sonia away. “Although he’s
fine now, you must take good care of him henceforth and make sure that he does the rehabilitation exercises,” she
reminded.
People who had a cerebral hemorrhage could never recover completely with just an operation. Instead, most of
such patients and survivors would be saddled with motor, cognitive, and speed impairments as well as other long-
term sequelae of various degrees.
She couldn’t tell for sure the kind of long-term sequela Sonia’s grandfather would have, for that was only
discernible after some observation when he regained consciousness.
“I know. My grandmother and I will supervise him to do his rehabilitation exercises every day,” Sonia asserted in all
seriousness.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Great! Then, I’ll make a copy of the dos and don’ts as well as the rehabilitation exercises for you. If you follow
them to the letter, your grandfather will certainly be able to keep you company for a few more years.”
“Thank you, Ms. Moore. Also, thank you for your benevolence and magnanimity by not holding a grudge against
me.” In all honesty, Sonia was deeply regretful about her past actions.
She realized that it was wrong of her to have negative feelings toward Arielle and even make things difficult for her
in class because Aaron was good toward the latter.
Sonia’s father, Lawrence Wynter, had also learned about the conflict between Sonia and Arielle when the latter was
performing the operation. He likewise walked over and bowed to Arielle in apology. “Ms. Moore, my daughter was
ignorant previously and made things difficult for you. Thank you for not taking offense at her and for coming to the
hospital to save my father.”
“She didn’t do anything that would make things difficult for me, so you don’t need to take it to heart. As for saving
your father, that’s my responsibility as a doctor. No matter who the patient is, I won’t stand idly by when a person’s
life is at risk,” Arielle replied with a faint smile.
