When She Stops Playing Nice
Chapter 420
âDidnât you say that you were going to call the police? Call the police first, then Iâll have an examination. I donât trust either of you. What if you tricked me into the hospital and locked me up as a lunatic?â said Susan.
Gina sneered. âSure, you can call the police. Then, the police will accompany you for the entire examination. They will be fair witnesses. If the examination reveals something is wrong with you, I can compensate you. If not⦠it means youâre pretending. You will bear the cost of the examination yourself. Also, the surveillance camera at the hospital entrance recorded that you were carrying a knife intending to wound someone just then.â
There were topânotch medical resources in Prover Hospital. A physical examination could be expensive. Susan knew well that although Gina had hit her wrist, it was a little painful but not to the extent of being injured. She reckoned that the doctors couldnât find anything wrong with her if she went for an examination. When the time Gina wanted her to settle the physical examination fee. How could she have it?
After weighing the pros and cons, Susan gave up on pestering Cathy. She was still unwilling to let Cathy off just like that. However, she could not deal with Gina, so she could only give up temporarily. Susan stood up and dusted herself off. She glared at Gina and Cathy. âJust you wait! Iâm not done with you!â
Cathy finally relaxed after Susan walked away. She could not help but burst into tears. She slowly squatted down and cried sadly. Gina turned and looked ar Cathy. âItâs all right,â she said. âYouâre far from the scumbags and out of misery
from now on.â
In tears, Cathy looked up at Gina gratefully. âMiss Miller, thank you, thank youâ¦â
âYou can stay in the hospital dormitory for now. Iâll get Dylan to arrange it for you.â
Cathy was also a nurse in the hospital but didnât live in the staff dormitory.
âOkay!â Cathy nodded vigorously. She did not dare to go anywhere right now. Mrs. Taylor could not enter the Prover Hospital, which was safer for her.
Gina thought she could leave after comforting Cathy, but Cathy suddenly hesitated and stammered, âMiss Miller, could you⦠lend⦠lend me some money? Andyâs mother has taken my phone.â
âSure,â Gina agreed.
âThank you!â Cathy smiled through her tears.
âDarling, the gunshot wound on your arm hasnât fully healed yet. Why are you in such a hurry to get pregnant?â said Harry, looking at Ashley sitting opposite him.
âDad, I was ready to get pregnant in vitro before I was injured. Besides, the doctor said Iâm fine. Donât you want to have a grandchild sooner?â said Ashley.
Ashley loved children and would love to have one of her own. Her exâhusband was infertile, so she decisively divorced him.
Iâm not in a hurry. I only want you to be healthy and happy,â Harry said sincerely.
Ashley smiled. Her father loved her the most. Otherwise, he would not have named her Ashley.
Although it was a common name, her father doted on her as the apple of his eye.
âIâm in a hurry, Dad. My life is too boring. I need new things to look forward to.â
The child was her hope. After all, she did not lack money or energy. She also loved children. As for the childâs fatherâ¦

She could find the right man later. Anyway, she had chosen the best quality sperm from the sperm bank abroad to cultivate her child.
âAlright, Dad. Iâm going to the hospital to do a fertilized egg transplant today. Iâm leaving.â
Harry wanted to say he would accompany her, but he could only give up at the thought he could do nothing and had other things to deal with. âAlright. Go ahead, and be careful.â
Ashley took the opportunity to complain, âIâm safe. I would be fine so long as Gina, the jinx, isnât around me.â
In the future, if Ashley could stay away from Gina, she must stay far away from her.
However, Ashley felt a headache when she thought there was a high chance she could not stop Gina from marrying into the Jackson family and would have to meet Gina frequently
Ashley arrived at Prover Hospital.
The moment Ashley got the transplant done, she began to be cautious. She stroked her abdomen and felt magical. She thought. There will be a little life in my belly from now on. Iâm going to be a mother!â
Ashley left after the doctor gave her instructions.
Ashley stroked her belly when she walked in the corridor. All her attention was focused on her belly. Suddenly, she was accidentally bumped by someone.
Ashleyâs first reaction was to protect her abdomen. She had just carried the baby and was extremely careful. Even though the other party had only touched her gently, and Ashleyâs body did not shake significantly, Ashley was still furious.
Cathy, who bumped into Ashley, immediately apologized, âIâm sorry, Miss. I didnât do it on purposelâ
Ashley didnât listen. âYou didnât do it on purpose. Are you blind? The corridor was so wide, but you bumped into me? Didnât you see where I walked out from?â
At first, Ashley wanted to say she had just finished getting pregnant in vitro and needed to be careful. Then, she thought it was best not to let people know she was pregnant in the first three months of her pregnancy. She was cautious now. It would not be a problem for her to be careful for the baby.
âIâm sorry. Iâm in a hurry to go to the neurology department to help. Iâm so sorry!â Cathy bowed again and apologized earnestly.
Now that Mrs. Taylor had her eyes fixed on Cathy, Gina just told Cathy to leave Medicine Landâs matter to avoid being tailed by Susan. Cathy might as well return to the hospital and work as a nurse. Cathy, of course, agreed. However, Cathy did not expect to provoke someone who was not to be trifled with on her first day back to work.
âWhatâs the use of your apologizing? You must know that if you had knocked me down just now, your low life wouldnât have been enough to repay me!â
The more Ashley spoke, the angrier she became. She slapped Cathy in the face. Cathy was in pain. Cathyâs new and
be old injuries were stacked together, which was painful and humiliating. Cathy could not bear it. âMiss, how can you so unreasonable? Itâs wrong for you to hit someone!â
âWhatâs wrong? Are you unhappy that I hit you? Do you want to call the police? Do you want to hit me? Do you Iâm afraid of you? Let me tell you, I can still afford to compensate you even if I cripple you today. Do you want to give it a try?â Ashley threatened with a sneer.
think
Cathy was instantly discouraged. It suddenly occurred to her that the people who could come to Prover Hospital for treatment were either rich or noble. How could she afford to offend them?

She finally managed to get tough once but immediately gave up. But what else could she do?
Apparently, Ashley felt Cathyâs fear, which made her even more smug. Ashley slapped Cathy again.
