    “Get what? I only care about treating patients, never about their names.” Vanessa replied irritably.

    This girl was obsessed with men to the point of madness. She was Kurt’s attending physician and hadn’t seen any Evander in days. Kathleen actually wanted to run into Evander here-if that wasn’t crazy, what was? Vanessa had no interest in joining her madness.

    Kathleen pouted: “Vanny, can’t you help me just because we’re best friends? If you just find out the room number for me, that would be a huge help. When I marry Evander, I’ll definitely give you a big present.”

    Heavens, marriage! This is too much!

    She hadn’t even met Evander and was already fantasizing about marrying him! What kind of person was this!

    Vanessa rubbed her forehead.

    “Kathleen, as a doctor, I can’t just reveal patient information to others. That’s part of my medical ethics. Besides, the hospital is full of patients. Someone like Evander would nevere to a ce like this. You’d better think of another way.”

    “Vanny, this is the best way. It’s absolutely inside information. Evander will definitely be here. Just help me this once. Our Dr. Dorsey is the most, most, most willing to help her friends.” Kathleen grinned, wagging her tail and ttering her.

    Vanessa, unable to shake her off, pushed her away and headed straight for the doctors’ lounge.

    “Hey, Vanny, ugh, you’re so rigid.” Kathleen rolled her eyes in frustration, stomped her foot, and followed her into the restricted area.

    Soon, her eyes lit up with mischief. There was only one patient room here, and the name hanging at the head of the bed was Kurt!

    The afternoon passed quickly.

    Nathan sat in his office, restless, Vanessa’s indifferent and distant face shing through his mind from time to time.

    This woman really had a way of getting under his skin, always managing to throw him into turmoil.

    She’d been like this since they were kids. He couldn’t believe that after all these years, she could still mess him up so easily.

    Women like Susanna were better-devoted to him, gentle and

    dependent, making him feel the pride and satisfaction of being a man!

    He dialed an extension number.

    Soon after, the door opened.

    Steve Frye hurried in.

    “Steve, have you found out where Evander is?” Nathan asked, frowning.

    After all thepetition for the Brentford Project, Evander was now his main rival. Figuring out Evander’s movements was the top priority, but up to now, he didn’t even know what Evander looked like.

    “Mr. Powell, we’ve learned that Evander has visited Kurt at Eldenerest Medical Center these past few days, but since no one has ever seen his

    real face, we can’t confirm which one is him or track his exact

    whereabouts.”

    Nathan’s face darkened like a storm cloud when he heard this.

    “You can’t even handle such a small matter? What am I keeping you people for? Go investigate! If you can’t find anything, you’re fired.”

    “Yes, yes, Mr. Powell. We’ll do our best to find out.” Steve answered cautiously and backed out.

    “Hmph, Evander, I will definitely uncover your true identity!” he thought.

    Nathan mmed his hand heavily on the desk.

    Evander! This man who appeared out of nowhere was destined to be Nathan’s archrival!

    With him in the Brentford Project, Nathan would never have peace!

    He stood up and strode out.

    In the corridor on the third floor, Vanessa’s silhouette was stretched long and dark by the lights.

    Footsteps sounded behind her.

    She turned around.

    A frail, petite woman in a hospital gown was walking toward her, supporting herself against the wall.

    Susanna!

    She turned and walked away immediately.

    All these years, nothing good had ever happened whenever she ran

    into Susanna. She didn’t want to see her for even a second.

    “Sister.” Susanna called out to her anxiously from behind.

    Vanessa suddenly stopped in her tracks.

    The entire medical incident had started with Susanna. If she didn’t interact with her, how could she ever uncover the truth?

    Someone who had already lost everything-would she still be afraid of a frail woman?

    Her eyes turned cold and sharp as she turned around.

    Susanna stood opposite her, leaning against the wall. She still looked weak, but herplexion was much better.

    “Sister, I know you hate me and don’t want to talk to me, but I was also raised by the Dorsey family. I still have feelings for them. You left a surgical instrument in my abdomen, but I don’t me you at all. After all, I stole your man first. I was in the wrong. Even if you took my life, I wouldn’t me you.” Susanna looked sincere and emotional.

    “So what?” Vanessa asked coldly.
