Chapter âWhatâs the diagnosis?â
âOsteoarthritis in the knees. Itâs been bugging the patient for more than two decades.â
âOsteoarthritis? What are the chances? Ivorâs grandma has osteoarthritis in the knees, too,â Bonnie thought as she received another text from Willam.
âGuess who posted the request?â
Bonnie sat upright and pondered for a moment before replying, âWas it Ivor?â
William was stunned. âHowâd you know that? Can you predict the future?â
She composed her reply and sent it.
You have one guess.â
âSo, it was Ivor. That means the specialist couldnât cure Winnieâs legs.â
Immediately after, Willam called, âWhy donât you turn down the request since youâre injured? Just put a pin in it and call it a day.â
Bonnie asked curiously, âHow much is the reward for his request?â
âA billion dollars. Come on, Bonnie. You canât neglect your health for money. If thatâs what you need, I can give billion dollars too. Hell Iâll even give you hundreds of billions. Scratch that. Iâll be more than happy to give you SR League if youâll marry me!â
Bonnie clicked her tongue and said, âIvor put up a billion dollars? Wow, thatâs waste.â
Hey, were you listening to me?
just proposed to you. Consider SR League your wedding gift. I really âI have something to attend to. Iâll talk to you later.â
âHâHello?â
âHow heartless Just the way I like it.â
Bonnie pondered as she looked out the window, âWhat should I do? Should I confess to Ivor that Iâm the one who cured Williamâs mother?
canât do that. Thatâs not the right way to do it. Iâve never told anyone I practice medicine.
âI didnât want patients up at my doorstep, asking me to treat them every day. Iâm not boasting, but people would literally crash through my gate if they knew how I am in treating illnesses.â
The following day, Bonnie visited ward. â
Grandma, is Ivor here?â
Winifred grinned said, âDo miss him? Iâll call and tell him to come here right away.
Bonnie cleared her throat awkwardly. She feel herself blushing. âThâthatâs not what I meant, Chapter 159 Grandma. I was just asking because I donât see him around â
However, Winnie did not believe her and proceeded to dial Ivorâs number. Bonnie added hastily, Maybe we shouldnât distract him from work. I heard from Floyd that he has an important meeting in the company today.â
Now that she put it that way, even Winnie thought it was better not to call. Instead she told Bonnie There are plenty of fruits in the basket. Would you like anything? Here, Iâll get some for you.â
Winnie got off the bed, eager to take the fruits for her. Suddenly, sharp pain shot through her legs. It was so excruciating that she grimaced. âOuch⦠My knees.â
âLet me help you to your bed, Grandma.â Bonnie held the older womanâs arms and helped her over.
Winnieâs complexion utterly pale at that moment. âDamn, these old legs. I wish I could chop them off. Itâs blindingly painful whenever they act up.â
Bonnie held Winnieâs legs and said, âHere, let me massage them for you.â
