Chapter 58 Just Being Flattered by Someone
Liam immediately stood up and put his phone back into his pocket when he heard the sound of the door opening. He glanced at Elizabeth, then gazed probingly at the doctor. The doctor naturally knew what it meant. He nodded hastily. “Don’t worry. Mr. Luther. The length of the procedure would be short and pose close to no risk.”
“That’s good.” Seeing that the doctor knew his place very well, Liam was assured.
“I’ve already called the hospital to prepare the necessary matters. You can be at ease,” Liam said.
When Elizabeth heard this, she felt very aggrieved. She took a step forward and grabbed Liam’s sleeve. The doctor saw this, immediately stepped behind, and moved his line of sight elsewhere. He did not dare stare so carelessly, or else he would probably mysteriously one
day.
“Liam, are you not going to keep me company here? I’m still a little scared,” Elizabeth said.
“There are still other matters that need handling at the company. When I’m finished with that, I will come and see you,” After Liam finished speaking, he pulled his sleeve away from Elizabeth’s grip. He then nodded his head at the doctor and left in big strides.
In reality, if it were during the usual days. Liam would accompany Elizabeth until the surgery was completed. However, first and foremost, he had alternate motives for making her do this surgery. Secondly, his heart was in shambles after he received Gwyneth’s message. Going back to the company to handle some matters was just a cover. He needed to have some quiet time to himself at the moment.
As much as Elizabeth was frustrated, she did not dare to chase after him or do anything as she watched Liam’s gradually fading silhouette. In the end, she was still scared and felt wronged deep down. She followed the doctor into the surgery suite.
Although the surgery was done on the arm, there was still a need to do local anesthesia. While waiting for the anesthesia to take effect, the doctors and nurses were chatting lightheartedly,
“I heard Dr. Lent had already returned and was inquiring about recent dermatology matters.”
“Is that true?! I look up to her! I hope I get to watch her do surgery in person!”
Elizabeth, who was originally upset, was now listening to these people chattering in her ear. They were not just discussing random things. but about how brilliant Gwen was. She gritted her teeth, and she felt more upset deep down.
“I also know of the Gwen you guys are talking about,” Elizabeth said.
The doctors were momentarily stunned when they heard Elizabeth open her mouth since patients usually were not in the mood to chat during surgery preparations. This woman, instead, was very nonchalant. However, this was a good thing. This might help alleviate the patient’s mood.
“Dr. Lent? You’ve seen her, Ms. Lisle? She’s my idol!”
“Mhm, I’ve seen her. The last time I was admitted to the hospital, she was the one who helped diagnose me…”
Elizabeth was just about to say that Gwen had done the surgery but was afraid that the doctors had really checked her injury. Since she clearly knew that it was Gwen who sewed her wounds. Now that it could barely be seen with the naked eye, it was proof of her skill.
“Wow! You’re so lucky, Ms. Lisle! Isn’t Dr. Lent outstanding!”
The other doctors opened their mouths with their faces filled with admiration. Then, unexpectedly, Elizabeth gave a disdainful chuckle,”
This person’s medical skills are not as adept as you people imagine her to be. Her skills are nothing more than being touted by others.”
It was an unexpected answer. The few people discussing just now looked at each other with ugly expressions. That is because anyone would be upset when someone you admired was given baseless slanders and mockery.
“Ms. Lisle, how could you say such words? Didn’t Dr. Lent already treat you properly?”
“That’s right. We just received the body check–up results, and there is no problem with your body.”
When she was asked so, Elizabeth could only move her mouth but did not know how to respond at the moment. At that same time, a doctor walked over from the corner of the surgery suite with a snort, “I think that Ms. Lisle’s words are, in fact, quite relevant…”
When they saw the female doctor speak, her eyes would almost roll to the back of her head.
She was a veteran doctor of the dermatology department, but her personality was lacking, so no one was willing to befriend her. Now that
.
these colleagues were praising Gwen in front of her, she was envious to the core.
“How is it relevant? What do you know?” The female fan of Gwen asked her with slight frustration and saw the lemale doctor immediately put on a high and mighty look. “The facts are there; your great Dr. Lent had has a burned mark on her waist.”
Having someone suddenly taken her side, Elizabeth quietly snickered. However, when she heard that sentence, she was instantly stunned, “What does that mean? Did that woman also have burned marks on her body?‘
“If she truly had spectacular medicine skills, would she not be able to treat her wound? What a joke.” The female doctor continued.
