Chapter 142 Dianaâs pov I quietly watched Nathan.
Sure enough, Nathan wouldnât help me without a reason.
He did all this just for Avia.
Ironically, I thought he had some conscience left.
âHealer.â
Seeing my silence, Nathanâs brows furrowed.
He asked againâcan you go see Avia?
I felt like something was gradually missing from my heart, empty, like wind blowing 1. in.
But perhaps because everything happening now was too absurd, my reaction was to laugh.
âSure.â I said, my facial muscles stiff from the smile, âYou helped me so much, how could I refuse?â
In an instant, Nathanâs furrowed brow smoothed out.
He sighed in relief, saying, âThatâs great.â
As if eager, he grabbed my sleeve, âLetâs go now.â
He was about to step forward.
I forcefully pulled my arm back.
Nathanâs hand suddenly emptied, and he turned to look at me in confusion.
âIâm sorry, Iâm not comfortable with physical contact with strangers.â
With that, I brushed past Nathan.
Walking ahead with my back to him, I discreetly wiped the sleeve he had grabbed, feeling a suppressed disgust rising within me.
It seemed Nathan truly loved Avia.
Pushing open the door to the ward, I heard a bout of severe coughing inside.
Cough... cough cough...
Nathan quickly passed by me, stopping at the bedside, asking Avia with concern, âWhy are you coughing so badly?â
Avia, who had been leaning on the bed, saw Nathan and naturally leaned against his waist, saying, âI... I donât know... cough...
maybe the condition has worsened. You know, because of Diana, Healer has been refusing to come and treat me. The longer this illness lasts, the worse it gets...â
Hearing this, I raised an eyebrow.
I really didnât expect that, at this point, Avia would still be smearing me.
With Nathan loving her so much, I couldnât understand why she targeted me. I posed no threat to her I posed no threat to her.
Was it just because I used to be Nathanâs mate?
If thatâs the case, I regret meeting Nathan in the first place.
âDonât worry,â Nathan comforted, âHealer has arrived.â
Avia seemed to just notice my presence, her eyes widening suddenly.
Which was normal.
I was dressed in full gear, a mask and glasses covering my features.
If you didnât look closely, it was easy to mistake me for an ordinary doctor.
âHealer?â Avia instinctively tightened her grip on the blanket, her pupils trembling, âWhy are you here?â
âOf course, Alpha Nathan invited me.â
As I spoke, I observed Aviaâs reaction.
I could almost conclude she was faking her illness.
Otherwise, she wouldnât be so panicked when she sees me.
I walked to the bedside, placed down my medical kit, and took out various devices.
Then, holding the stethoscope, I approached Avia, âLet me listen to your heartbeat first.â
Avia swallowed nervously.
But with Nathan watching her right there, she could only nod.
âOkay, okay.â
I brought the stethoscope close to Aviaâs chest, furrowing my brows slightly. âYour heartbeat is fast,â I said, âthatâs not a good sign.â
âYes...â Avia immediately put on a weak look, âIâve been having heart pains lately.â
She glanced at Nathan, furrowing her brows, tears shimmering in her eyes, looking pitiful and innocent.
Tchuckled softly.
âYou misunderstood, I didnât say youâre unwell.â I said mildly amid Aviaâs growing confusion, âWhat I meant was, your heartbeat tells me youâre nervous right now. And usually... only liars have this kind of heartbeat.â
âNo! Iâm not lying! Iâm not faking it!â
Avia screamed suddenly.
I stood up straight, looking at Nathan, âWith such a loud voice, there shouldnât be any problem.â
Avia froze.
The next moment, she immediately clutched her chest and said to Nathan, âNathan, my heart really hurts.â
Nathanâs hands in his pockets, a faint suspicion between his brows.
But perhaps his concern for Avia outweighed his intelligence, he still chose to believe Avia.
âThen, can you check her again? Sheâs been coughing and having chest pains. Could it also be because of the virus she was injected with before?â
âDid she take the medicine I prescribed on time?â I asked.
Nathan nodded.
âThen thereâs no problem.â I said, âBesides, her symptoms have nothing to do with the virus.â
âThatâs...â
âMaybe itâs because sheâs too nervous emotionally, if not, take her out for a change.â
I was too lazy to play along with Avia and engage in meaningless communication with Nathan, so I gave him a random reason to dismiss them.
âIf thereâs nothing else, Iâll leave.â
I packed up the equipment, put on my medical kit, and prepared to leave.
âWait.â
Just as I turned around, Avia stopped me.
I stopped my steps, turned back to her, âIs there something else?â
check âItâs like this, before you me, I consulted another doctor. That doctor told me that my heart discomfort was because of congenital ischemia.â
Nathanâs face turned serious, âWhy didnât you tell me about this?â
âBecause I didnât want you to worry.â Avia said, revealing a pitiful and understanding expression.
âWhat do you mean?â I squinted at Avia, feeling a bad premonition rising in my heart.
âI have panda blood type, as long as another blood type with panda blood comes to donate blood for me, my illness will definitely improve.â Avia said.
-My heart skipped a beat.
Panda blood type is extremely rare.
Even if you search the entire hospital, only one personâs blood type is panda blood.
That person is-
âI heard that Dianaâs blood type is panda blood.â Avia said, âMaybe you can ask her to donate blood for me.â
I froze.
Then, I sneered inwardly.
Sure enough, all this was another plot set by Avia against me.
I took a deep breath, trying my best to restrain the impulse to grab Aviaâs hair and slap her twice, saying, âI think thereâs no need for that. Your body is healthy.â

took a deep breath, trying my best to restrain the impulse to grab Aviaâs hair and slap her twice, saying, âI think thereâs no need for that. Your body is healthy.â âWhether my body is healthy or not, as the patient myself, wouldnât I know? Or... have you been completely bribed by Diana, so you want to join forces with her to kill me?â
I clenched my fists suddenly.
Avia undoubtedly trapped me there.
If I agreed, then I would be hurting myself.
If I didnât agree, I would be charged with deliberately harming Avia.
I turned my gaze to Nathan and asked, âWhat do you think? Do you also want me to persuade Diana to donate blood for Avia?â
Nathan remained silent, complex emotions swirling in his eyes, like struggling and hesitating.
Avia tugged at Nathanâs sleeve, âNathan, donât forget, Diana is the one who raped me. Shouldnât she do something to make up for it?â
As Aviaâs words fell, hesitation and struggle gradually disappeared from Nathanâs eyes, replaced by a resolute indifference.
âYes.â Nathan said, âDiana should indeed pay the price.â
He looked at me and said, âHealer, I know you and Diana are close, I hope you can persuade her to donate blood to Avia.â
