Chapter 175
For the entire morning. Millie focused on learning it was indeed like what Lainey had said. Therewere different kinds of patients,
Some of them had tears in their eyes as they begged Lainey to save them, while others knitted theirbrows, displaying stubborn dabeled,
furiating then the pat
However, what was more infuriating than the patients were their families. Like the one before
them now
“What kind of illiness does she have? Why is it costing me so much money? I can’t afford any moretreatments for her Tell me straight, can you actually cure her?
In front of them was a middleaged man in tattered clothes. Kane Olsen appeared to be in his 50%and exuded an indescribable vulgarity.
Setting beside him was Cara Tume, a woman in her 30%. She was fair and beautiful yet endentlymesk
Doctor, I went to know if there’s still a chance to cure my condition. Her voice was exceptionallysoft. It was as if her words could vanish with the wind.
“You can’t even bear a child! What’s the point of treating you? I shouldn’t have brought you to thehospital. I think you’re just faking it!
As soon as Kane yelled, Cara lowered her head. Even her breathing became cautious and
shallow
Millie scouted as she watched Kane raise his hand and jab Cara’s head, hurling curses at her, “Imarried you to give me children, to carry on my family line. But you’re just a worthless burden! if Ihad known you were this useless, I never would have married you!”
His furious rant was off putting, making everyone who heard it feel uneasy.
While this was the first time Millie had seen a patient’s family member behave this way, Laineyappeared used to it. The situation left Millie feeling suffocated.
Every word from Kane’s mouth made her want to throttle him. In this day and age, how could menlike him still exist?
Right then, Millie couldn’t help but speak up for Cara. “She’s your wife, not a tool for bearing yourchildren. Show her some respect!”
Kane immediately looked at her and bellowed, “I’m teaching my wife a lesson! What business is it ofyours?”
Lainey saw what was happening and quickly grabbed Millie.
“Her heart condition is somewhat complex. If you’re considering treatment options, I suggest
hospitalization. That way, I’ll develop a plan-”
“What? Hospitalization? How much will that cost? Kane cut her off with his outburst.
Millie’s expression turned cold instantly. She was furious that all Kane could talk about was money.
Cara tilted her head slightly to steal a glance at her husband who immediately glared at her Whatare you looking at? I don’t have money for your treatment, so that’s it!” Kane snapped. With that, he
grabbed Cara by the collar and dragged her out.
Millie couldn’t help but follow them. “Is money more important than human life?” she asked sterly.
“Of course, money is more important!” Kane answered without hesitation.
Millie was rendered speechless by his answer. She could only stand by and watch as Kane draggedCara along.
Tears glistened in her eyes, and when she glanced at Millie, it seemed like she was pleading forhelp. Millie saw a fierce determination to survive in the woman’s gaze.
Seeing that Cara had slowed her pace, Kane shoved her forcefully, nearly causing her to fall. Milliefrowned at that sight.
Just as she was about to step forward, Lainey called out, “Come back here, Dr. Caldwell.”
Millie turned back to look at her. Wearing a solemn expression, Lainey said, “Put your compassionaway. You’re a doctor, not a hero.”
There were too many couples like the one earlier and they couldn’t help everyone. Millie understoodwhy Lainey said such things. After all, she had witnessed too many similar cases and had becomenumb.
But Millie was still a rookie in the outpatient clinic. Nevertheless, she remained silent.
When she returned to Lainey’s side, Millie saw Cara’s address and phone number on the medicalrecords. She secretly memorized them.
Right then, Lainey slammed the medical file shut and warned her, “Money doesn’t solve everything.People like her husband will always demand more.”
She had encountered a similar situation before.
