Chapter 492: An Irresistible Offer

The nurse was just an intern, fresh out of college. She had never seen corruption and shady dealings up-close before this, and the thought of getting involved in an evil scheme scared her.

Dr. Xia had picked her to be his accomplice precisely because he knew she was timid. Fresh graduates like her were the easiest to control.

“Just do as you’re told, and shut up. I’m warning you: you’re already in this with me. There’s no backing out for you now,” growled Dr. Xia menacingly.

And then, not wanting to scare the nurse away, he hastily added in a gentle voice, “Don’t worry, I have it all worked out. The big boss behind this will be paying us handsomely. Even if this gets out, we’ll just say it was a medical accident. If someone finds out about this before the surgery, we’ll say it was a diagnostic error. Got it?”

Dr. Xia had received a lot of “benefits” from the big boss pulling the strings. The big boss was offering him an astronomical amount of money; he could slave away at the hospital for the next several years, and still come nowhere close to earning that much money.

Aside from the money, the big boss would also be recommending the doctor to a famous hospital abroad. This was an irresistible offer for Dr. Xia.

Dr. Xia sat in his chair, dreaming of fame and fortune. He did not realize that Xu Xiyan had recorded everything he had just said.Fịndd new updates at novelhall.com

Xu Xiyan had returned to the doctor’s office to ask him something, and had accidentally overheard the shocking revelation from outside the door.

Now that it was clear that someone was trying to sabotage Qi Liya, Xu Xiyan decided it was better not to blow the whistle on the doctor before she knew exactly what was going on.

Qi Liya wasn’t stupid. She knew how to read, and the report said that she had a malignant tumor. It was right there on the report, plain as day.

A malignant tumor was basically cancer, wasn’t it?

Why? Why were the gods always trying to rob her of her happiness?

They had robbed her of love when she had been lonely and desperate.

Now that she was fully invested in her work and had a successful career, the gods had decided to play another cruel joke on her.

Were the gods taking away her health, too?

“The doctor said that it’s malignant and has to be operated on as soon as possible. If necessary, they may have to remove your uterus.” Xu Xiyan clenched her fingers into fists as she said this. Her tone was one of righteous anger.

Xu Xiyan was determined to protect Qi Liya at all costs, but in order to do that she had to keep her in the dark for now.

“Remove my... uterus?”

Qi Liya’s hands began to tremble. Her lips quivered as she fought to keep her tears at bay.

“Ms. Qi, don’t let this get to you. It may end up being just a simple, straightforward removal of the tumor. What’s important is that you don’t let this get you down.”
