Chapter 304

The ambulance whizzed through the bustling street and made its way to the hospital.

Once they reached the hospital, the medical personnel rushed Ashlyn’s grandmother over to the emergency room.

Meanwhile, Ashlyn put on her white robe and told the director of the emergency room, “I’ll take part in the rescue operation.”

“Sure, Dr. Berry! Please come with me!” The director replied.

Finally, they walked into the emergency room together.

Without further ado, Ashlyn carried out a series of thorough tests for her grandmother while coming up with the appropriate treatment plan with the director of the emergency room.

“The patient is diagnosed with severe pneumonia. We have to run a CT Scan to ensure nothing else is wrong with the patient,” Ashlyn instructed with a serious expression.

She got increasingly infuriated as she got a better grasp of her grandmother’s actual medical condition.

Her grandmother had fallen seriously ill, but Horace had been keeping her in the dark all along. In fact, they refused to send her to the hospital despite being aware of her actual condition.

It was evident they wanted to send Ashlyn’s grandmother to hell.

Horace Berry!

Mary Canter!

She took a deep breath in an attempt to calm herself down. “Let’s bring the patient for a CT Scan now.”

“Yes, Dr. Berry.” The nurse took note of Ashlyn’s instruction and brought her grandmother over to the CT Scan room immediately.

Once she walked out of the emergency room, she ran into a few nurses who were in the middle of a conversation as they were cleaning up.

“Does that mean Penelope is Dr. Berry’s half-sister?”

“It feels like Penelope is really jealous of Dr. Berry! A friend of mine who’s part of the surgeon team told me whenever someone praised Dr. Berry in front of her, Penelope would get infuriated. She would throw a tantrum in front of others.”

“What? She’s such a self-centered woman!”

“Exactly! I mean, isn’t she Dr. Berry’s sister?”

“Their grandmother is heavily bedridden, and yet none of them bother to rush her to the hospital. I can’t figure out what’s going on in the mind of those from the Berry family.”

“You’re right! I can’t believe such an unfilial bunch of people actually exist in the world!”

“Thankfully, Dr. Berry noticed what was wrong with her grandmother. Actually, Dr. Berry doesn’t stay in the Berry Residence with her family. If she’s around, I’m sure those from the Berry family would not dare mistreat her grandfather either!”

“That’s so inhumane! Unfilial people are the worst kind of people!”

“I’m grateful that isn’t the case for my family because my grandmother and my great-grandmother stay with us as well, but my parents ensure they take good care of them!”

The trio from the Berry family, who finally made it to the emergency room, heard the conversation the nurses had since they were at the entrance.

Horace looked at the nurses who were reprimanding them with a grim expression, asking, “May I know where’s Old Mrs. Berry who has been rushed to the emergency room?”

“She’s currently away for a series of thorough diagnoses,” A nurse replied indifferently.

Mary, who had been infuriated due to Ashlyn’s impudent behavior, couldn’t believe she would have to go through another round of humiliation in the hospital.

Hence, she went berserk in front of the nurses, yelling, “Please mind your manners! Is this how you’re supposed to treat the family members of a patient?”

Since they were merely nurses, Mary was certain they had limited influences within the hospital. She warned them, “I will file a complaint on all of you with your supervisor! How dare you badmouth us behind our back?”

“Please suit yourself, madam!” The nurse took a peek at Mary and thought she must be Ashlyn’s stepmother.

In fact, Penelope resembled her mother in terms of look.

On the other hand, Penelope, who was by her mother’s side, felt greatly embarrassed because the ones her mother was picking on were her colleagues.

If her mother were to offend all of her colleagues, Penelope would have a hard time dealing with them at work in the future.

She got in Mary’s way and stopped her mother immediately because she was aware of the potential consequences in store for her. “Mom, stop it! You’re making a fool of yourself!”

“They’re the ones who are making fools of themselves! Look at their attitude! How dare they badmouth us behind our back? They don’t deserve to be nurses at all!” Mary yelled hysterically.

The nurse couldn’t suppress her emotions either because she had never been scolded in the face ever since she was born. She rebuked and yelled back, “Who are you to tell me off?”

“I’m teaching you a lesson on your parents’ behalf! Have you no shame at all? How could you gossip about others behind their back? I will definitely lodge a complaint against you! I want you to be fired! I won’t allow you to be a nurse anymore!” Mary took her anger out on the innocent nurse who was merely stating the truth.

“You!” Although the nurse was equally infuriated, she couldn’t rebut Mary’s statement anymore.

In the end, her eyes brimmed with tears, keeping her emotions to herself.

Suddenly, a callous voice could be heard coming from their back, asking, “Oh? Who exactly are you trying to get rid of?”

The crowd was attracted by the presence of the professional-looking woman, who had a white robe on with her hair tied up, the moment Ashlyn showed up in front of them with.

She had a diagnosis report with her in her hand, evoking a sense of professionalism a doctor should have.
