Johann was fooling Leia just now. The injection was given to her to prepare for the surgery.
However, it was not like what he had told her.
Johann knew Leia refused to take Dexter's liver. That was why he used such a way to bluff her. After all, for her,
staying alive was much more important than being stubborn.
Still, Johann was not afraid that Leia would look into this. His tutor who was in New York told him that they were
currently studying similar drugs to activate the cell activities in the human body, but there were also some similar
side effects.
They were doing the research to see if they could remove the side effects so that the patient would have more
choices.
Johann came to the nurses' station and reminded the head nurse, “Leia's reluctant to undergo the surgery. Please
keep an eye on the solution bottles that she'll be taking these three days. It'll be best if you can handle it yourself.
Don't answer her no matter what she asks."
"No problem. But why is she rejecting the offer?" The head nurse was confused. There were so many patients out
there who had been waiting for an organ transplant for so long that they eventually gave up hope. Leia was
different from them. How weird was it for her to reject such an offer?
"It's the patient's privacy. I can't tell," replied Johann as he threw a wink at her.
The head nurse pursed her lips and laughed. "Fine, Dr. Park. I'm old enough, so don't try to flirt with me. Anyway,
you must have scared the hell out of her, right?"
"Otherwise, should I watch her refuse to go for the surgery?" It was not the first time Johann scared his patients.
The wealthier the patient was, the more stubborn they were.
They were worried that their lives would be threatened, but most of them could not accept the doctor's
suggestions.
It was because they were afraid that they would not be able to stay alive after entering the operating room.
Johann could not guarantee that there was a 100 percent success rate for the surgery. That was why it was
something Johann would normally do to deal with the patients who refused to undergo the surgery and miss out on
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe chance to receive treatment just because they were worried and anxious about it.
"That's true. But you'll have to report to the director about this. Otherwise, you're going to get scolded again," the
head nurse reminded him.
Johann smiled and nodded. He was not planning to tell that old-fashioned man.
After all, what mattered the most was that Leia ended up safe and alive.
Furthermore, that old fogey was concerned about Leia's situation too. After all, Leia's father was Jack Norman.
Hence, even though what Johann did was against the code of medical ethics, it did not matter as long as the final
result was something the director wanted to see, right?
In the ward.
Leia got so angry that she threw the pillow at the wall.
The caretaker was shocked. She stood up and comforted Leia, “Ms. Norman, you have to calm down now."
"Get lost!" Leia's eyes reddened. She was boiling with anger, and she would not listen to anyone's advice no matter
who it was.
The caretaker stiffened and stopped. She looked at her with a worried expression on her face.
Leia could feel that her heart was pounding faster and faster. It was not a good sign. She took a deep breath, trying
hard to calm herself down.
"Where's my phone?" Leia asked. She was blinded with rage, and it was as though her eyesight was affected by the
anger in her. Everything she saw before her eyes blacked out for a moment, then it was bright again. She narrowed
her eyes and turned to look in the direction of the caretaker.
"It's on the bedside table," replied the caretaker. The caretaker was confused when she noticed that Leia was acting
like someone who was short-sighted.
"Bring it to me," Leia sat on the bed without moving, acting just like a statue.
The caretaker walked there, picked up her phone, and placed it on Leia's palm.
"I have to make a call. Please leave me alone," Leia instructed.
"Okay." The caretaker was worried that she might get angry again, so she quickly left the ward.
Leia found Mandy's phone number and called her.
Mandy was shopping in the mall, choosing her new clothes. Her phone vibrated, and she immediately picked it up to
glance at it. It was Leia who was calling her.
Mandy answered the call and asked, "Leia, have you thought about it?"
"Come to the hospital," said Leia.
Mandy looked at the new designs of the latest season and said solicitously, "I've got something to do here. Just tell
me through the phone and I'll deliver the message to Mr. Matysh for you."
"I'm afraid someone's eavesdropping on our conversation on the phone. If you don't come, just take it as a no from
me."
"Fine. I'll be on my way now. I'm at the mall. Would you like to grab something to drink?" Mandy asked. She
immediately changed her attitude when she heard that Leia was going to reject her.
"What else can I drink when I'm in such a state now?" Leia frowned, thinking that Mandy was deliberately touching
her sore spot.
Not only was she not allowed to drink beverages but she had to take care of her diet too.
Everything she ate was tasteless now. She was fed up with spending her days like this.
Mandy slowly replied, "I don't know much about your illness. Hang in there. I'll hail a ride and get there now."
Leia hung up the call and threw her phone aside.
Luke could be eavesdropping on her phone anytime now. That was why she had to be careful.
Mandy hurried to the hospital.
She pushed the door open and walked into Leia's ward. Before she could greet her, she directly asked Leia, “What's
your decision? You agree to work with us, right?"
"Yes." Leia no longer hesitated.
"Okay. I'll tell Mr. Matysh your decision. Then we'll come up with a plan. You'll be able to get the sum of money and
what you want after the plan succeeds," Mandy replied excitedly. She would receive another sum of money if Leia
agreed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"The plan can't be implemented that quickly." Leia frowned. "I'm going to have a liver transplant surgery in three
days."
"What? You've already got a donor? Who's donating it to you?" Mandy was surprised.
"My biological father..." Leia clenched her teeth when she mentioned Dexter. There was hatred in her voice.
"Then why did you agree to work with us when you've already got a donor? Didn't you tell me that it's risky?" Mandy
noticed Leia's hatred for her biological father when she mentioned him, and she changed the subject of the
conversation.
"I need money," said Leia. Was Luke not trying to get rid of her?
Luca was so close to him. Hence, she should make Luke lose her.
"Honestly, although I hope that you'll agree to work with us, your foster parents aren't short of money. Why are you
so desperate?" asked Mandy. Leia's family background was much better than the others.
"They don't treat me as their daughter anymore. I have to find a way to protect myself after I recover," said Leia.
"I'll be able to walk again once the surgery is done and after I'm out of the woods. What does Matysh want me to
do?"
"Uh, Mr. Matysh has mentioned it to me before. He wants you to lure that woman somewhere else. Then, his men
will make their move. After it's done, the money will be transferred into your bank account," said Mandy. She sat on
the sofa, picked up a bunch of grapes, and started eating.
"That's all?" Leia listened to their plan. It sounded familiar to her.
Leia had partnered up with someone else and used such a method to kidnap Bianca. That was how Luke lost his
wife.
This time, she wanted him to lose the woman he loved again!
"What else can you do? You're sick. If you agree to help, I'll have to keep him steady for the time being. He's
desperate, after all," Mandy smiled and replied. The burning desire Matysh had for Luca was completely released
on her. That was why it struck Mandy deeply.
Leia had to wait until her surgery was done to be able to help them. So, Mandy had to calm Matysh down.
