Chapter 322


    Even though Sarah put on a pretty convincing show, Maka wasn''t buying it. You can always see


    through the bull when you look someone in the eye. Maka could feel Sarah''s sucking up to her


    brother, but she couldn''t feel any genuine care towards her.


    "He asked me to say thank you." Maka said with a touch of annoyance, "But I don''t wanna say it."


    Sarah turned to Elisa, "Can you give us a minute? I wanna have a heart-to-heart with Maka."


    Elisa was torn, but right now Sarah was the Bourne family''s savior, and she didn''t dare to offend her.


    Once she left, Sarah began, "Maka, I don''t get why you have beef with me. Did someone badmouth


    me to you? I''ve been busting my ass every day researching treatment ns for you after I got back.


    Why can''t I get a single thank you?"


    Maka cut right to the chase, "I don''t think you''re the one who did the surgery."


    Why else would she see Violette''s face and hear Violette''s voice in her mind before each surgery? If


    she saw Sarah before each surgery, she wouldn''t be questioning this.


    She didn''t haveplicated thoughts; she believed what she saw and heard.


    "You think? You''re the patient here, and everything you just said, they''re all in your head." Sarah


    continued her brainwashing.


    After all, she was intellectually challenged before, even though she was a bit better now, she was still


    fresh off the operating table!


    Sarah could manipte her thoughts. Even if she was right, she can be deemed wrong, as eople would


    believe the doctor, not the patient. That was why Sarah dared to lie to Elijah.


    Since the real surgeon decided to remain anonymous, it meant they didn''t need anything from Elijah.


    And since they contacted her through the hospital staff twice, it meant they were okay with her


    epting this ''gift''!


    Who would turn down a free lunch?


    "You''re a bad person!" Maka''s disdain for Sarah skyrocketed at her cocky attitude.

    Even though Maka wasn''t as smart as others, she could still sense right from wrong. True kindness


    didn''t boast.


    "You probably haven''t seen a real bad person, that''s why you''re saying this. I know you''re the woman


    Elijah cares about the most, and I never thought of hurting you. I can stay by Elijah''s side with you, but


    why can''t you ept me?"


    Sarah''sst sentence, although sounding rhetorical, was her voicing her grievance.


    "Get lost!" Maka''s voice suddenly escted, her emotions ring.


    Elisa, hearing her shout from outside, immediately rushed in.


    "Maka, what''s wrong?"


    Sarah calmly said, "Elisa, don''t worry. The more agitated she is, the better it is. It means her self-


    awareness is significantly improving, which is a good sign that the surgery was sessful."


    Elisa was taken aback for a moment, but quickly nodded, "Dr. Sarah, I can''t thank you enough!"


    "No need to thank me. It''s not good for her recovery to be like this. I''ll prescribe some sedatives. Make


    sure she takes them."


    "Okay."


    Silverleaf Ridge.


    Violette got home, and the two kids showed varying degrees of anxiety when they saw her.


    They didn''t go to school today, mom won''t be mad, right?


    "Mom! Phone!" Rita picked up her phone and handed it to her like a gift, her eyes twinkling, "Mom,


    someone called you! Guess who!"


    Ian: "Mom, I blocked him."


    Violette immediately checked her phone, opened the block list and saw Elijah''s name. She frowned


    slightly, debating whether to unblock him.


    Mike leaned over and teased, "He''s already got another woman, what''s there to hold onto? If I were


    you, I would have cut ties with him ages ago!"


    Violette looked up at him, "Who was the one crying every day for a year after breaking up with their ex?


    Who was it?"


    Mike blushed instantly, quickly changing the subject, "Violette, you should go to sleep! I''ll take the kids


    out so we won''t disturb your rest."


    After Mike left with the kids, she took a deep breath and decided to keep Elijah on the block list!


    After today, his rtionship with Sarah would definitely got closer, maybe they''ll even get married soon!


    There was no need for her to contact him anymore.


    Holding her phone, she headed to her bedroom.


    The Bourne family, master bedroom.
