Chapter 428 A Choice Was Made
“I don’t want to repay kindness with marriage. That wouldn’t be fair to you. Even if we remarried, this marriage wouldn’t be a good thing.”
“That’s not it. I’m not doing this because-”
“Enough, Nella.”
Alfred didn’t dare listen to what she was about to say and quickly cut her off.
The hand resting on the wheelchair armrest was trembling. “Let’s leave it at that.”
“I heard from Mr. Fred that you applied to go to Darvonia for further study?”
Nella froze for a moment, then nodded. “Yes. I wanted to-
“That’s good.”
Alfred spoke in a shaking voice. “Go, Nella. Don’t waste your time on me.”
After saying that, he gripped the armrests and turned the wheelchair around so his back was to her.
“You should head back first. I’m going to sit here for a while longer.”
Nella stood there, silently watching him for a long time, then said softly, “Okay.”
She walked up to Alfred. “I’m leaving.”
After walking a short distance, she stopped again.
When she looked back at Alfred, she saw him just sitting there blankly. When she waved goodbye to him, he didn’t respond at all.
When she left the hospital, she changed direction and went to see the chief surgeon at Everwell who had overseen Alfred’s entire surgery.
She knocked on the office door and called out, “Lewis.”
The man looked up. When he saw it was Nella, he was briefly surprised. “Nella? What brings you here?”
This man was a student whom Clifford had taught when he was younger. His last name was Carroll After graduating, he joined Everwell’s surgical department and was now the chief neurosurgeon there
No one knew that Lewis had this connection with Nella.
“Lewis, can I take a look at Alfred’s medical records?”
As soon as Nella finished speaking, Lewis’s expression changed slightly.
He looked a bit troubled.

“Nella, this is a patient’s privacy. I can’t just show it to anyone.”
Finished
Especially someone like Alfred, the head of the Keywood Group whose condition affected the entire commercial value of the Keywoods. His medical records were absolutely confidential and could not be leaked.
“Lewis, did you forget? I’m his wife.”
Nella met Lewis’s gaze directly, her expression completely calm.
She was gambling. She was betting that very few people knew about her divorce from Alfred.
And back then, the fact that she and Alfred were married was practically known across the internet because of Zoey’s messy actions.
“Lewis, as his spouse, I have the right to know his condition.”
Nella spoke without blinking or acting nervous.
Lewis also knew that when Nella had been hospitalized at Everwell before, the Keywoods often came to visit her.
Naturally, he never suspected that the two had already divorced.
Hearing how confident. Nella sounded, he doubted it even less.
