The next morning, Nancy woke up in such a bad mood that she had to skip breakfast. Fortunately, the children were not there to see her listless look on her face.

She had several operations for the day, and luckily her foot didn't hurt much. But even so, she could not stand not working when her patients needed a doctor to tend to them.

And because Charles was nowhere to be found, Nancy took a taxi to the hospital.

‘I should not ask him to drive him to work anymore,' she thought.

A pang of sadness hit her heart.

Nancy had gotten used to his presence every morning that this one felt quite odd and unfamiliar to her.

And although she thought no one would notice her long, brooding face, Jessie suddenly came over at her as soon as she entered the hospital.

"Oh, you don't look well today. Didn't you sleep well last night?"

Since Nancy was already disheartened, she didn’t have the mood banter with Jessie.

So instead of replying, she just walked straight to her office.

"I've warned you time and again that you should be careful with Charles. Look at you! He cheated on you, didn’t he? You should’ve listened to me. Tsk tsk!" Jessie couldn’t hide her condescending tone. After all,

not even pay anything for it!

But little did they know that they annoyed a person with a short temper. She’d never let anyone talk crap about her, her family, and friends when she was around.

So she walked up angrily and roared, "You bitches! Would you fall ill if you don't gossip for a while? Come on! Keep talking if you want me to rip your mouths apart!"

"Hey, bitch! Why are you mad? Did we talk about your man?"

"No, no, no! She looks so fierce and uncivilized. No man would ever dare to marry her. Any man who will marry her will die early. Humph!"

And like a dagger blazed with flames, those words pierced through Doris, firing up the fury in her.

"I'll let you know what ‘die early’ means today!" After yelling at the top of her lungs, Doris rushed forward and grabbed the older woman by the hair.

Then, reaching out her hand, she landed a hard slap on the woman’s face.

The two kids were left dumbfounded at the sight of their aunt going ballistic. But instead of stopping her, all they could do was stare at Doris in utter disbelief.

"You, bitch! You’ll regret this!" With eyes wide open, the woman screamed in horror.

The woman might be good at talking, but not at fighting.
