"There''s something important we need to talk about. Get out." Leia gave her a piercing look as she
asked the caretaker to leave.
After the caretaker left, Mandy walked toward her hospital bed, pretending to worry about her. She
said, "Leia, didn''t you say you''d like to get a liver transnt thest time? But your family refuses to do
it. Look at you. Your skin is sallow and your body is weak. You look like you''re dying. That''s why you
have to make yourself look miserable. They''ll certainly agree with it then."
Leia bit her lip and red at her, "I ended up like this because of you!"
"Don''t me me. We didn''t even know smoking would have such a great impact on your health.
Besides, that was the cigarette you used to smoke. You were fine back then... So, it''s probably
because the doctors can''t find the reason why your condition worsened and they med the cigarette.
What matters most now is that you''ve survived. Although you''re in a worse condition now, your mother
might have a soft spot for you if things don''t get better," Mandy whispered in her ears. "You were still
unconscious when I came here just now, but your mother was crying her eyes out."
"Enough. Stop talking about her," Leia replied angrily. She lost her status in the Norman family ever
since her parents acknowledged Bianca.
Jack did not like her, and Queenie''s attention was all on Bianca. She was trying to make up for losing
Bianca for so many years. That was why the resentment Leia had for her parents was bing
stronger and stronger.
Mandy smiled and said, "By the way, do you know the name of the doctor who treated you?"
"Which one?" Leia leaned on the pillow and sat for a while. Her body was unable to take it, and she
wanted to lie down.
However, she did not want to show her weakness and look flustered in front of Mandy.
"The one who came to your ward today. He''s so handsome and young. Hey, do you think doctors like
him make a lot of money?" Mandy''s eyes were gleaming. She would not have known that there were
so many outstanding men in A City if she had not returned to her country.
"You mean Johann." Leia looked at the overwhelmed look on Mandy''s face. She could not help but
judge her for being so clingy to men. She continued, "I''m not sure how much young doctors earn these
days, but he."
"Yes? Isn''t he making a lot of money? If he''s able to visit patients like you who stay in VIP wards, he
must be experienced and qualified enough. But he looks young." Mandy interrupted her without trying
to conceal her interest in Johann.
"Can you wait until I finish my sentence?" Leia chimed in querulously.
Mandy smiled and stopped behaving in a spoony manner. She quickly nodded and replied, “Oh, sorry.
Please continue."

"He''s a famous doctor in this country. Many famous businessmen and politicians who are sick would
find ways to see him. They would rather pay expensive medical expenses to see him than head to
those private hospitals for surgery," said Leia.
Johann was capable, but he chose to work in a public hospital.
However, there were limited resources in a public hospital. To consult a doctor like Johann, they would
have to snatch up the chance to see him. Besides, Johann made his own rules. He wanted to make
sure ordinary people were able to consult him too, so no one was allowed to make the reservation on
behalf of anyone else. Once someone managed to make the reservation and receive treatment in the
hospital, the surgery cost and medical expenses would be based on the hospital''s charges.
That was why many wealthy men who wanted to consult Johann but did not manage to get the booking
number had no choice but to head to a private hospital to consult the doctors there. Then, they would
ask the director of the hospital to ask Johann toe over to treat them.
Only a few managed to cut in Johann''s patient line.
"Wow!" Mandy could not help but exim in admiration. "He''s really something."
Based on what Leia had told her, Johann must be making a lot of money. After all, private hospitals
were different from public hospitals. Johann was capable enough, and he was not afraid that he would
starve.
Although Johann was not a businessman, he was considered outstanding with such social status and
reputation.
"So what if he''s capable? Does it have anything to do with you?" Leia said sarcastically. Johann would
never fall for someone like her.
Mandy was dumbfounded for a moment. She sat beside the hospital bed and tried to please Leia. "He
has nothing to do with me now. But you can help me. I''ll make sure you get a share of the pie after you
recover."
Leia frowned without saying anything.
It was obvious what Mandy was up to. She wanted to win Johann''s heart, but Leia had never seen
Johann being in a rtionship with anyone before even after staying in A City for so many years.
Perhaps he was interested in men.
As for why Leia knew Johann so much, it was because Jack had tried to set her up with Johann many
years ago.
However, Johann was not interested in her, and Leia had no feelings for Johann either.
That was why Leia knew Johann''s rtionship history so well.
Mandy noticed that Leia did not say anything, so she added, "Oh, my dear Leia, he''s your attending
physician. The two of you must have a way to contact each other. Why don''t you give me his Facebook
ount name?"
"What if he''s not interested in you? You might betray me and tell him. I''d still be the unlucky one," Leia
said slowly.
"No. I promise I won''t betray you! I won''t even tell him you were the one who gave me his Facebook
ount," Mandy swore as she made a swearing gesture.
The door was pushed open, and the nurse came in. She recognized Mandy when she saw her sitting
beside Leia. She was the one who gave Leia the cigarette yesterday. The nurse frowned and asked,
“What are you doing?"
Mandy turned around and nced at the nurse. She was the one who came in yesterday. Then, Mandy
rose to her feet. She did not like the nurse.
"I came to visit the patient. Is there any problem with it?"
"If you hadn''t taken the initiative to smoke in the ward, the patient wouldn''t have ended up like this."
The nurse gave her a dirty look. She walked toward Leia''s bed and said, "I have to give you an
injection now. Would you like to lie down?"
"Yes please." Leia felt tired. There was weariness on her pale-yellowish face.
After the nurse helped Leia to adjust the hospital bed, she gave her the injection quickly and skillfully.
She warned Mandy before she left, "The patient can''t even inhale secondhand smoke right now. Don''t
do anything silly."
Mandy pouted her mouth.
After the nurse left, Mandy stepped forward and looked at the IV fluid Leia was using. There were a few
bags of them. She could not help but smack her lips and say, "There are so many of them."
"Thanks to you," Leia replied in a cold voice.
"Didn''t I tell you that it''s a blessing in disguise? Just wait for it. Your mother will give you the money to
get the liver," Mandyforted her. She did not forget to ask for Johann''s contact from her. "Come on.
Give me the doctor''s Facebook ount name."
Leia was getting impatient with Mandy pestering her. She reckoned that Johann would not ept
Mandy even if she threw herself at him. Hence, she said, "Note it down. His Facebook ount name
is..."
Mandy quickly noted down the name.
After Leia gave her Johann''s contact, she asked her to leave. "Fine. You''ve got what you wanted from
me. Stoping here for the time being so that my mother doesn''t see you. Please leave."
"Then I won''t bother you. Do remember to tell me if anything happens. I''m worried about you." Mandy
sent her a flying kiss.
Leia did not take Mandy''s words seriously. She closed her eyes and said, "Ask the caretaker toe
back here."
"Got it." Mandy left happily after she got what she wanted.
