Chapter 708: The Defensive Woman


    Once she had the angle of the patient''s bed adjusted, she returned with a portable desk for the


    patient''s convenience.


    "Mr.Ronin, go ahead and finish your meal."


    Once again, things got increasingly tense as he ignored her and the light refreshment she had gotten


    him.


    After a few minutes of awkward silence, she nced at the man and suggested, "M-Mr.Ronin, am I


    supposed to leave you alone? If you''re irked by my presence, I''ll leave at once!"


    She thought his scrunched-up face had something to do with others’ presence in the ward.


    Thus, she looked elsewhere and thought of leaving the man alone.


    It was then a nurse showed up and asked, "Dr.West, where are you going? Aren''t you going to feed


    Mr.Ronin his ss of milk?"


    "H-Huh?"


    Amora gaped at the nurse''s question.


    Have I just forgotten Kane can''t consume the food without others’ aid due to his injured hands? That''s


    very silly of me! Amora stopped sulking and returned to his side, volunteering in a courteous manner,


    "Mr.Ronin, allow me to help you."

    "Get out of my sight!"


    "I''m so sorry for neglecting your needs, Mr.Ronin.


    I was afraid of startling you.


    Therefore, I have forgotten you''re still heavily injured.


    Can you kindly forgive me for once?"


    Kane''s eyes flickered in awe when he caught a glimpse of the woman with an aggrieved smile.


    Have I met her before this? What''s with this sense of familiaritying from her? No! It''s impossible!


    There''s no way I''m acquainted with such a horrendous woman! He denied the thoughts he had in mind


    and continued looking elsewhere to avoid eye contact with the woman.


    With that being said, he had finally stopped chasing her out of the ward and started opening up to her


    without him being aware.


    "Thank you so much, Mr.Ronin! I''ll go get you a straw at once!"


    Amora was thrilled.


    She soon returned with a straw and handed over the ss of milk to Kane.


    She had long gotten used to bracing herself through simr situations.


    After all, she was the aggressive one back in the day when they were still at Avenport.


    In the end, Kane finished the ss of milk and heard someone yelling the moment he had his eyes


    glued to the cakes on the portable desk.


    "Kane, you''re finally awake! I''m just d you''re doing fine!"


    Out of nowhere, a middle-aged woman barged into the ward and rushed in the direction of the patient


    when she saw Kane having his meal.


    Amora sprang up from her seat and got in the way of the middle-aged woman to stop him.


    Meanwhile, Kane, who was about to finish the cakes, wasn''t in the mood to finish his meal anymore.


    "Can you please identify yourself?"


    Jasmine was slightly irritated by the presence of the doctor getting in her way.


    Thus, she introduced herself with an arrogant look, "Me? I''m his aunt! Devin''s my son! I''m here to


    check on my nephew! His uncle is currently on his way too! He''ll be joining us in another few minutes!"


    Devin''s mother? Amora secretly let out a sigh of relief, but she refused to move aside and turned


    around to take a peek at the patient on the bed.


    She could see frustration written all over his face.


    It seemed as if he was about to go berserk and throw another tantrum soon.


    Subsequently, Amora urged the middle-aged woman in front of her, "I''m so sorry, Mrs.Jadeson.


    No one is allowed to visit the patient at the time being since he has just regained consciousness."


    "What do you mean were not allowed to visit him when he''s wide awake? It''s not like I''m here to pick


    on him!"


    Jasmine couldn''t keep her emotions in check anymore—she tried to push Amora away.


    However, the observant Amora got ahead of Jasmine and dragged Kane''s so-called aunt out of the


    ward.


    "How dare you drag me out the ward? Aren''t you aware of who I am?"


    Amora remarked in a callous tone, "I''m well aware of your identity, but I''m afraid I can''t allow you to


    interrupt the patient, Mrs.Jadeson."


    Jasmine was about to make a scene when Amora turned around to lock the door of the ward in front of


    her.


    Who the hell is this doctor? How dare she pick on me and chase me out of the ward? Is this the way


    those from the General Hospital treat the members of the Jadesons nowadays? Who the hell is she


    working for? In an attempt to take things out on Amora, Jasmine warned, "Just you wait! I''ll go get the


    person in charge of the hospital immediately!"


    Amora couldnt care less, but Stephen was astonished when he saw his wife stomping her way out of


    Kane''s ward the moment he reached the floor.


    He asked, "Where are you going? Aren''t you here to visit Kane?"


    "Why don''t you go ahead and give it a try? We shall see if the doctor is going to get in your way or not!


    She has just chased me out of the ward! I''m currently on my way to the director''s office to figure out if


    something''s wrong with that doctor!"


    Jasmine continued reprimanding Amora at the top of her lungs.


    When Stephen saw Amora staring at them from afar, he looked in her direction and asked, "Are you


    new around here?"


    "Yes, I''m Dr.Wallen''s assistant."


    "Has Dr.Wallen not mentioned to you that the patient inside the ward is our nephew?"


    "Actually, it was Dr.Wallen''s instruction to stop others from showing up in the ward.


    However, if Lieutenant Colonel Jadeson and Mrs.Jadeson insist on going in and aren''t afraid of the


    patient going berserk, please help yourselves into the ward."


    Amora retrieved the keys and was about to unlock the door to the ward shortly after she finished her


    sentence.
