Ellie rubbed her eyes hugely before producing a jaw breaking yawn. "The witch said she would remove the stitches in a week or so. Which is great because then I'm not getting poked again. But, on the flip side she isn't coming back for a week unless my drug dependence comes back. I had Michael remove everything so that should be impossible, but if in some weird freak accident I get some, she will be back."

Nolan started to head to the front entrance to the room with an umbrella shading his face. "Oh how unfortunate. You know she did change our lives in such a good way. I feel she's always flitting away, it's so hard to give a proper apology to her. She really does deserve proper commendation from her superiors."

"She has got a stout thank you from both me and Henry. You shouldn't have to worry that she feels thanked thoroughly by us." Ellie's laugh quickly turned into a cough to hide her wince of pain as she lay on her back. "I still don't understand why everyone calls her a witch. She's perfectly normal, it's such a shame that people call her so. I think she's a lovely gal and an even more excellent doctor. It makes me unhappy that Wu is no longer going to be my doctor. I shiver to think of more medical malpractice in my future, but how can I not see that being around me when I no longer have anything she can treat would just be a waste of her talents. Wu will probably go back to her charitable causes."

"That's too bad that she's no longer going to be coming around here. It's a loss to us." Nolan looked crestfallen, but then turned to Ellie with a solution to their dilemma. "It's not the end for me though. I still have to head back to her office to pay our bill. I mean it is only a bus ride up from my university. It's not too out of my way to go to her directly. Although she may be too busy to see me unless I sit in her office for a couple days." 

"I hate to burst your bubble as you seem so determined, but I think Henry already had it paid off. Michael was telling me that Henry was laughing so hard at the amount he just bought her clinic with the Wong Charitable Foundation outright. It made the most sense in his eyes which I don't think is a bad thing for our Dr. Wu."Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

"We don't have enough money to buy her from Henry. But we can at least pay our own medical bills. I don't like that." Nolan said slowly. "I mean I will be using the scholarship money to pay for it. That would technically still be Henry's money in a roundabout way."

"I would like to pay for it as well, but you know my winnings dried up already. I don't know if I can ever pay Henry back for everything he'd done for us. We have done very little in return for what was given. It gives me anxiety but I'm too tired to think of anything I can do. Maybe now that you two are on better terms finally you can work something out." Ellie's eyes had a faraway look as she looked tiredly at him.
