After her rebirth

Chapter 189



Katniss listened and fell silent for a moment.

After a while, she looked at Cecil, then at the two lonely strawberries in the basket. She grabbed the strawberries, took a quick bite, and left the basket for Cecil.

Mumbling, she said, "That's it."

Cecil held the empty basket, averted his gaze, and then looked at Katniss's face, his thin lips slightly pursed, "You might as well eat yourself to death."

After saying that, Cecil shoved the basket back to Katniss and walked away with a slightly cold expression.

Katniss happily finished the remaining strawberries, glanced indifferently at Cecil, and thought, "What a stingy rich kid, so shameless."

She looked down, took out her phone to check the time, and saw that it was lunchtime. Time to clock out!

Then she rushed to the cafeteria, having heard that they were serving her favorite dishes today.

While passing through the open-air garden, Katniss saw Ella not far away. Ella was carrying a lunchbox wrapped in a cloth, quickly walking towards the inpatient department. She must have accidentally bumped into someone, as she was standing with her hands on her hips, showing a sharp and mean face, loudly arguing with

someone.

"No manners at all, can't you make way for me? What kind of upbringing is this?"

"I'm over fifty years old, I'm not afraid of you. You bumped into me and now you want to hit me? This is outrageous, everyone come and see, he's going to kill me."

The young man, probably not used to such a scene, blushed and pointed a trembling finger at Ella, "You are unreasonable!"

Ella's tantrum quickly attracted passersby, some of whom stopped to watch and pointed at them.noveldrama

Ella, with her graying hair and shabby clothes, wearing an old-fashioned coat and shoes, looked like a typical rural woman. Most of the onlookers' criticisms were directed at the young man.

Seeing this, Ella smirked triumphantly, eyeing the man's attire. His clothes were of good quality, and his shoes were polished. He looked like a wealthy person.

So Ella rolled her eyes and said, "Seeing that you're young, I won't argue with you. Just pay me $200, and I'll see a doctor and get some medicine. If it were someone else, you wouldn't get away with it."

The young man, unable to explain, said that it was clearly the old woman who wasn't looking and bumped into him. How could she now slander him?

But in this situation, no one believed him.

Thinking it was better to avoid trouble, he was about to take out the money when he suddenly heard a clear voice from behind.

"Is the injury that serious? $200 for medical expenses? Let me take you for a check-up to see if there's any major issue. If it's serious, like internal injuries or broken bones, $200 won't be enough. It should be at least $2,000!"

Katniss, with her hands in her pockets, casually pushed through the crowd and walked over, her eyes indifferent as she glanced at Ella.

Seeing Katniss, Ella was stunned and unnaturally licked her dry lips. What was Katniss doing here to mess things up?

Cursing her.

Ella glared at her and said irritably, "This is none of your business."

The young man, seeing Katniss in a white coat, looked like he had found a savior, "Please check her injuries. If she's really hurt, it's on me. I'll pay for the medicine." Mainly, the old woman seemed full of energy, not at all like someone who was hurt. Katniss feigned surprise, blinking her clear eyes, "This is a hospital. As a medical student, how can I not get involved? I'll call and schedule a full check-up for you right now. Come on, I'll take you there."

Saying this, Katniss grabbed Ella's arm, pretending to drag her towards the front office.

Ella gritted her teeth, shook off Katniss's hand, and glared at her. This ungrateful brat, she was perfectly fine.

Ruining her plans.

Ella snorted stiffly, "So troublesome, forget it. I'm kind-hearted, I won't argue with you.

I need to deliver lunch to my husband."

Then she walked towards the inpatient department.

Seeing this, the crowd dispersed.

The young man gratefully thanked Katniss, "Thank you so much."

Katniss lazily waved her hand, "You're welcome."

Then Katniss continued walking towards the cafeteria. Halfway there, she suddenly

stopped and turned around, "Come out."

A few seconds later, Ella, holding the lunchbox wrapped in cloth, came out.

Katniss's face was cold, "Ruined your plan, now you're following me. Are you expecting me to pay you $200?"

Ella licked her lips and snorted, "I heard you have good connections in the hospital and are a student of a particularly skilled doctor. I think the current doctor treating Aaron isn't good enough. Can you get a different one? I think your teacher is great, let's go with him."

Hearing this, Katniss laughed.

Just a heads up: is the only place to read the complete version of this book for free. Don't miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!

"What did you say?" Katniss looked at Ella quietly, raising her eyebrows, "My teacher's fees are expensive. The money you have is far from enough, but..."

Ella eagerly asked, "But what?"

"Haven't you heard of someone else?" Katniss smiled slightly, "Dylan, he's the youngest attending physician in our hospital, with a promising future. His mentor is the renowned Dr. Willie Reed, who often appears in the news."

"Most importantly, Dylan is Clara's second brother, and Aaron is her biological father. Treating Clara's biological father, Dylan would surely be more attentive, right?" Katniss's eyes curved, but there was a deep sarcasm in her gaze.

Ella, reminded by Katniss, suddenly brightened up and clapped her hands.

Right, why didn't she think of that? The Manners family had a ready-made doctor, why go elsewhere?

And Clara was their daughter, so they were practically relatives. How could they charge relatives for treatment?

This would save the medical expenses.

Ella was so happy she almost jumped for joy, praising Katniss, "I didn't raise you for nothing. You're smart, having studied."

Katniss lightly tugged at her lips, her gaze cold, and said indifferently, "Go ahead, it's lunchtime now, Dylan is off work."

She even kindly gave Dylan's office address.

Ella thought Katniss was right, so she immediately turned and walked towards Dylan's

office.

On the way, Ella called Clara, but the call wouldn't go through. Was it a fake number?

She needed to find an opportunity to ask Katniss for Clara's number again.
