The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1756

Claire shared the exact same sentiment.

"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

Mary hadn't said a word this entire time.

But she was furious about how Evie had spoken to her granddaughter, so when Claire firmly stated she wouldn't treat the student, Mary completely approved.

Getting involved with the families of patients like this was nothing but a nightmare.

Back when she worked in the hospital, picking and choosing patients wasn't exactly an option.

But Claire was different. She hadn't even graduated; nobody could force her into anything.

Besides, with this other girl's toxic attitude, if Claire agreed to the treatment, this psycho would probably turn around and report her for practicing without a Medical License.

In reality, Claire had already obtained her license while Hale was still alive, so she had absolutely zero fear of being reported.

"Alright. I'm sorry for holding you up." Yvette felt even more embarrassed when she noticed the elegant elderly woman standing by Claire's side.

After Evie had caused such a scene, and hearing Claire admit she wouldn't be treating the leg, Yvette inexplicably felt a pang of deep disappointment.

Still, she hadn't given up on her plan to find the attending physician.

Seeing Claire walk away, Evie didn't feel the victorious rush she had anticipated. Instead, she looked at Yvette with mounting anxiety.

"I was just worried you were being scammed..." Evie trailed off, unable to defend her actions further.

Yvette cut her off. "I know your heart is in the right place, Evie."

"But now that I'm in Cabinda, I'll take over at the hospital. You should head back to Montara."

"Or, if you'd like to stay and sightsee for a few days, I meant what I said—I'll cover your travel expenses."

Yvette's message couldn't have been clearer.

Evie's mood plummeted. She felt convinced that Yvette was only acting this way because Quentin had poisoned her against her.

She had been so confident she could win over the mother and lock down the son.

Now, the situation was spiraling far worse than she had ever imagined.

"I don't need your money. My mom transferred my allowance before I left."
