Although Yvette didn’t know what Cecilia was up to, she trusted her completely.
“Okay, I’ll go tell Jayden now.” With that, she walked out of the ward angrily.
Cecilia was worried that Yvette wouldn’t be able to control her anger, so she reminded her, “Yvie,
you’re not supposed to pick a fight, but to ease the relationship.”
Yvette knew what Cecilia was worried about, so she turned around and said, “Don’t worry, Ceci. My
acting skills are pretty good. It’s a piece of cake to fool Jayden.”
She didn’t exaggerate because her grades in the performing arts
department at Quilton University had always been the best. Whether it was theory or practice, she had
secured the first place.
Soon, Yvette came to Jayden.
She looked at Jayden, who had completely lost his aura as the best actor, and she secretly cursed, “He
deserves it!”
She used to be Jayden’s fan and had made a lot of profit for his fan economy. When she thought about
it now, she deeply regretted it.
No matter how disdainful she was, Yvette didn’t show it.
At that moment, she had the right expression of anger and helplessness.
“Jayden, you’re so despicable. How dare you take advantage of Fiona and rub salt into her wounds! I
even thought you two were a good match before, but it turns out that you don’t deserve her at all! If you
dare to say anything unfavorable to Fiona, the Yates family will not let you go!” Jayden didn’t take
Yvette’s words to heart because when she came out of the ward to meet him, it showed that Fiona had
compromised.
He raised his chin slightly, looking condescending. “So, what does Fiona want you to tell me?”
Yvette held back her urge to punch Jayden in his shameless face. She said. angrily, “Fiona is seriously
injured, and it’s inconvenient for her to see you now. She will call you when she gets better.”
Jayden couldn’t wait to ask, “How long will it take?”
“I don’t know. It depends on the result of the treatment. If you can’t wait,

just pretend I’ve never said anything.”
Yvette turned and left after saying that.
Jayden stepped forward with his long legs, blocking Yvette’s way.
“You should be aware of my current situation. I can’t wait too long. Before 6 p.m. tomorrow, either let
Fiona see me or have Calvin talk to me about collaborating with me.
With that, Jayden left.
Yvette looked at his brisk pace and swung her fists angrily. “I’m going to throw a left hook and a right
hook at you and blow your head off!”
As Jayden entered the elevator, he saw Yvette’s childish actions and. twitched his lips in mockery.
Yvette returned to the ward and complained about Jayden’s bad deeds. while adding fuel to the fire.
Cecilia and Fiona both knew her temper and her exaggerated words.
But even without exaggeration, Jayden was nothing more than scum.
Yvette grabbed Cecilia’s arm and asked worriedly, “Ceci, what should we do if that jerk gives us so little
time?”
Cecilia raised the corners of her lips when she heard how Yvette called Jayden. She gently stroked
Yvette’s head with affection.
“Don’t worry, there is enough time. Wait for my good news,” Cecilia said.
“Okay. Let us know if you need help, Ceci.”
“No, I can handle it myself.”
Cecilia looked at Fiona, who was drowsy again.
“I’ve mixed soothing herbs in the trauma ointment. It can help you rest better. This ointment can also be
used on the wound in the genital area. Remember to apply it at night. I’ll take my leave now.”
Fiona was so sleepy that she fell asleep straight after nodding.
Yvette was surprised and gave Cecilia a thumbs–up.
Yvette whispered after seeing Cecilia out of the ward, “Fiona was badly injured. She’s in so much pain
that she can’t sleep and has had less than two hours of rest since yesterday. Ceci, the ointment you’ve
prepared is amazing.
Cecilia had not expected Fiona’s condition to be so serious.
“Yvie, you go inside and take care of Fiona. I’ll go and see the attending

doctor.”
Yvette nodded. “Thank you, Ceci.”
Cecilia thought, “I don’t deserve to be thanked. If it weren’t for me, nothing would have happened to
Fiona. No matter how much I make for it, I can’t undo the damage done to Fiona.”
She then said, “Yvie, don’t mention it. You should be careful, and bring more bodyguards when you go
out.”
up
“My mom has sent me a lot of bodyguards, and they are all around me. If I walk on the street, people
will think I am a mafia girl.”
“Safety first, but these days won’t last for too long.”
Yvette couldn’t help but ask, “Ceci, how did you get involved with such a terrible bunch of people?”
She thought the intrigues of the prominent family were terrifying enough, but then she saw a group of
murderous devils with her own.
eyes.
It was inconvenient for Cecilia to reveal what had happened in the Peacekeeping Forces, and she
didn’t want to find an excuse to deceive Yvette, either.
After a while, she said, “Yvie, there is lots of unknown darkness in the world. I’m sorry for causing you
trouble.”
“Ceci, don’t say that. I owe you my life, and Fiona doesn’t blame you either.”
Then, she smiled and nudged Cecilia. “Ceci, you go see the attending doctor. I’m going in to take care
of Fiona.”
Cecilia nodded and headed to the doctor’s office.
It was almost noon, and the attending doctor was packing up medical records and getting ready for
lunch.
When he saw Cecilia, he seemed to see the light in his life.
“The doctor you hired for Ms. Yates has arrived in the afternoon. I didn’t expect it to be Professor
Lambert. I was rude yesterday and doubted the standard of the person you’ve hired. Please don’t take
it to heart.”
“I don’t mind. Since you know Dr. Lambert, I think you will work well together.”
“Don’t worry. I will cooperate with Professor Lambert and follow his
instructions!”

He would seize the rare opportunity to learn from the top experts. Cecilia nodded and asked, “I heard
Fiona barely slept last night. What’s going on?”
Even if she had a high fever, it wouldn’t be so painful that she couldn’t sleep.
The doctor then told Cecilia about Fiona’s stomach cramps.
“Ms. Yancey, Ms. Yates is injured so badly. Even if you call for Professor Lambert, I’m afraid it won’t be
of much help.”
He had been a doctor for more than 20 years and had never seen such severe lacerations and uterine
ruptures.
It was like a vengeful way of torturing people, whether they were dead or alive.
Cecilia had read Fiona’s medical records and knew her injuries well.
“No matter how much it helps, it’s better than doing nothing. Besides, medicine works miracles,” she
said.
“That’s true,” the attending doctor replied.
Cecilia closed the medical record and asked, “Do you or any of the nurses. know how to massage?”
The attending doctor stretched out his hands and said, “I know a little. Would you like to try, Ms.
Yancey?” NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
“Yes.”
Cecilia didn’t do it for enjoyment, but she wanted to know what the attending doctor’s massage
technique was like.
If possible, she would teach him a series of techniques to massage Fiona’s lower abdomen to help
relieve the pain.
After the doctor massaged her shoulders, she nodded in satisfaction and then taught him the massage
technique.
Cecilia left after she ensured that the doctor had learned the skill.
She received a call from Christopher as she arrived at the underground parking garage.
