Chapter 278 Lie To Him

"Director Nancy, that kid whose surgery we just completed is in a lot of pain. May I administer some painkillers?" Erin came in and asked urgently.

"I'll take a look at her first." Nancy had just performed surgery on a child who had broken legs from a car accident, and had to be operated on twice.

They used the local anesthetic during such surgeries for children. Unfortunately, the effect of the anesthetic had subsided, so he was feeling painful again.

"You can go, Nancy," said Doris.

"So, Doris, make sure you help yourself to some desensitizer. Take good care of your body!" Nancy said firmly, expressing her concern.

"Understood." Doris sounded lazy and uninterested.

As soon as Nancy left her, Doris went to the bathroom to use the mirror. She scrutinized her face and felt sorry that the rash would disappear soon.

She wanted to get back at Jay once and for all.

She thought remorselessly, 'He deserves to be dealt with.

He must pay for cheating on me!'

With fresh resolve, Doris walked out of Nancy's office, leaving the desensitizer behind.

"

the test report, he'd take to his heels and stay far away from her.

Unfortunately, it didn't look like things were going to go as she planned.

"I don't know if I've infected you yet, but you must go for a check-up very soon. I want you to stay away from now on. I also hope that you can keep this between us. I don't want anyone else to find out." She managed to release two drops of tears as she spoke and sniffed.

Jay's eyes were lit with mockery. He was unruffled as he thought, 'What an actress!

Is she trying to get me scared?

What does she take me for, a fool?'

Jay bent over and gently kissed away her tears. He looked straight at her and said, "Doris, listen real good. Your sickness does not change anything between us. I'll die with you!"

Doris's eyes widened.

'Unbelievable!' she thought. 'How can someone so heartless say something so sweet?'

Doris refused to accept it. She shook her head hard. "Never, Jay! I don't want you to die with me. You have a family, and your friends. They'll be sad if you die. You don't want to make them sad, do you?"
