Listen to this chapter:

He meticulously examined the results, comparing them to the previous tests, shaking his head and sighing repeatedly. This whole process left Tessa somewhat confused. What was this doctor doing? The way he was diagnosing made it seem like Aurora was on the brink of death. How was she supposed to carry on with her plans if this continued? This couldnโ€™t be happening!

As she watched the doctor shake his head and sigh, Lucas' gaze darkened. If he couldnโ€™t spot the problem now, he would truly be a fool!

โ€œWhat are you doing?โ€ Lucasโ€™ sudden voice made Jackson flinch, nearly dropping the test results in his hand.

He paused for a moment, then responded, โ€œIโ€™m comparing the patientโ€™s current test data with the previous ones to see if thereโ€™s any improvement.โ€

โ€œAnd?โ€

โ€œThenโ€ฆโ€ Jackson swallowed hard, feeling the tension rise in his chest. โ€œI found that thereโ€™s still no improvement. In fact, thereโ€™s even a downward trend.โ€

Lucas' eyes narrowed. โ€œSo?โ€

Under that intense gaze, Jacksonโ€™s nerves completely unraveled. He stammered, โ€œSoโ€ฆ so I suggest not moving the patient around. Itโ€™s because I heard you wanted to transfer her to another hospital, so I rushed over.โ€

โ€œHeh.โ€

Lucasโ€™s sudden light laugh confused everyone in the room. Even the foreign doctor didnโ€™t dare breathe too loudly. It was clear to everyone that Lucas was furious. His temper had always been notoriously bad. That he had managed to calmly ask Jackson three questions in a row was already quite a feat.

Looking at it now, if the attending doctor continued to claim that Auroraโ€™s condition was worsening, it seemed Lucas was genuinely considering tearing down this hospital. The foreign doctor glanced at Kenneth and saw that he looked equally nervous. It seemed everyone knew exactly what kind of person Lucas was. Now it was clear that the doctor had walked straight into a hornetโ€™s nest.

Tessa, noticing the doctorโ€™s poor composure, couldnโ€™t help but speak up in his defense. โ€œAlright, Lucas. Youโ€™ve heard it. The attending doctor has suggested this more than once. We should listen to the advice of the family members. Besides, my sisterโ€™s been doing well here. Itโ€™s better to treat her slowly and carefully. Youโ€™re just making things harder for the doctor now.โ€

โ€œShut up!โ€ Lucas snapped sharply.

The sudden outburst made Tessa jump, completely taken aback. What was his problem? Why was he suddenly so angry? Everyone stared at Tessa in shock. For someone who had just been speaking confidently, she was now rendered speechless. No one knew what to say, except to hope she would survive this confrontation. She had the audacity to defend the doctor under such circumstances. How impressive!

Tessaโ€™s mind was still spinning. After all, she was Auroraโ€™s sister. Was she really being scolded by this man? And in front of so many people? The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

โ€œLucas, what are you trying to do? No matter what, Iโ€™m Auroraโ€™s sister. Is this how youโ€™re going to treat me?โ€
