Keira slightly halted as she frowned and peered into
the room.
She caught sight of Nara, whose hands were covered in blood, which was also sared on the apple
peel she was holding. Nara’s fingers trembled as she stared at
the cut on her hand.
Keira’s pupils contracted, and she imdiately rushed in. “Nara, are you alright?”
Nara looked at Keira with tearful eyes before fixating on her trembling hand.
On her wrist was a gash from which blood was whooshing out, rendering her hand strengthless!
Keira imdiately asked, “What happened?”
Nara gestured with her hand, trying to speak, but unfortunately, no one in the room understood her sign
language. She wanted to write, but the right hand she used to write was cut, and she couldn’t muster
any
strength.
Her eyes were rimd red.
She was supposed to beco a doctor; if she no longer had strength in her hand, how would she hold
a scalpel?!
Her entire dical career had been destroyed!
With resentnt, she turned her tearful gaze toward Jackson.
Keira imdiately asked, “Did he do this?”
Nara nodded at once.
Keira then scanned the surrounding environnt.
Jackson lay in bed, unable to get down, but beside Nara and on the floor were a pillow and a fruit knife.
Taking the situation in the room into account…
Keira imdiately said, “Did he ask you to peel the apple and then, while you were peeling it, he hit
you with a pillow, causing you to cut your wrist?”
Nara nodded tearfully.
Jackson sneered. “So what if I did that? She couldn’t
serve properly! I wanted to eat an apple and asked
her to peel one, and she couldn’t even manage that!”
Nara cried as she looked at him.
She could do it.
But Jackson always found fault in her actions.
If the apple peel were too thick, he would scold her, accusing her of wasting food; if it were too thin, he
would still scold her, threatening to complain about her.
She had to focus on peeling, but when the knife slipped toward her wrist, a pillow suddenly struck her,
causing the blade to slice her wrist.
Now, it seed the tendon in her wrist was cut, and she couldn’t exert any strength.
In a state of utter despair, Nara wept miserably. Unable to speak, she felt a suffocating sensation in her
chest. All she could do was glare at Jackson and try to open her mouth desperately
She wanted to speak, but she couldn’t make a sound.
Keira said, “Nara, don’t be anxious. I know you’ve been
wronged…”
But Nara shook her head as she cried.
Jackson laughed mockingly. “What wrong has she suffered? The person who was wronged here is !
She couldn’t do her job properly. She’s a doctor, right? She’s supposed to hold a scalpel in the future,
and she can’t even peel an apple for ? If she’s incompetent with a simple apple, she might as well
consider a career change; we can’t have her shaking and damaging the patient’s body in an operating
room!”
After that, Jackson turned to his assistant. “Go tell the dean and her teacher that she cut her hand
while
peeling an apple for . A careless person shouldn’t be given a permanent position, lest she harm
others…”
The assistant nodded, “Alright…”
As the assistant was about to leave, Nara grabbed his
hand.
She shook her head in pain, her mouth opening an closing in desperation…
She wept soundlessly with tears rolling down her face.
Jackson rebuked sharply, “What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go!”
The assistant heartlessly pushed Nara away and headed toward the door.
Watching the assistant leave, Nara grabbed his arm
again and, in the extre emotional stress, unconsciously shouted two words, “…No… don’t…”
Although speaking was difficult, with a hoarse voice and even weird pronunciation, she still managed to
utter those two words.
After hearing her voice, Keira was taken aback for a
mont.
Nara also froze, her tearful gaze following the assistant.
Jackson curled his lips. “Wow, look at that-the mute can talk! So why have you been playing mute? To
gain sympathy? I heard that because you are a disabled person, the school waived a year of tuition for
you… You wouldn’t be scamming for tuition fees, would
you?”
Shaken and frightened, Nara hurriedly waved her hands, her mouth opening and closing, “…I…
didn’t…”
Though speaking was strenuous, she indeed made a
sound.
Keira imdiately exclaid with surprise. “Nara, you spoke! Can you talk?”
Nara nodded while crying, then shook her head.
Jackson sneered again. “What does it matter if she can talk or not? I’ll make sure she drops out! Oh,
and by the way, I heard she wants to work at the Nora Research Institute. Without experience working
in a hospital, there’s no way she can get in!”
Upon hearing this, Keira was montarily stunned.
She looked at Nara. “Do you want to go to Nora Research Institute?”
Nara nodded, then shook her head again.
She did want to go but didn’t have the ability yet.
Keira said, “I’ll help you.”
“You’ll help her?” laughed Jackson as if he’d hear joke. “How can you help her? Don’t you know the
family controls the dical system? With one word from us, the Nora Research Institute will never
accep her! Austin, am I right?”
Upon hearing this, Austin laughed lightly. “That’s right! Keera, I won’t let her succeed! I’m getting the
hospital to revoke her internship!”
As soon as he finished speaking his phone rang
unexpectedly. It was Lady Gill, and he answered imdiately. “Mom, have the bodyguards arrived?
Check every phone number, and we’ll find our sister!”
