The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1650

"You'd better go home straight away. There is no need to come and pick me up. I am extremely busy since there are many patients here. It would be better if I have dinner at the staff canteen," Cassie replied. As the ambulance approached, she had the urge to hang up the phone. There was way too much work for her to do, and she couldn't waste another second.

"Nick! Another patient is waiting for me. Sorry, but I have to go now!"

"Okay, make sure you take good care of yourself--" Before Nick could finish speaking, he heard a beep. 'Oh, she has hung up, ' he thought.

Suddenly a disappointed smile made its way to Nick's face. He shook his head, feeling disheartened.

Cassie gazed at the vehicle as the door opened. The patient was a young and beautiful woman.

"Doctor, please, help her. My girlfriend suddenly fainted. I have no idea what went wrong. I am deeply concerned about her,"

a man anxiously stated, standing next to the female patient. Cassie immediately felt a familiarity after hearing that voice. In astonishment, she stole a quick glance at him.

As expected, the man was none other than Jordan, Cora's older brother!

Since Cassie got back together with Nick, Cora hadn't mentioned anything about her elder brother. And Cassie had made no attempts to ask Cora about Jordon either. But this meeting was completely unexpected. She had never thought they would meet again in a hospital.

Jordon was taken aback as soon as his eyes fell on Cassie. But quickly, he composed himself. He came back to his senses, and his gaze shifted back to the doctor. With a nod, he hurriedly followed the doctor into the hospital as his girlfriend was carried inside.

When Jordan's girlfriend was taken into the operating room, Cassie was selected to help with the operation. Jordan was immediately perturbed. Before Cassie entered the room, he stopped Cassie at the doorway, and he grabbed Cassie by her arm, and warned spitefully, "Cassie, there may be old scores unsettled between you and me, but don't you dare vent your anger on her! If you do, I will make your life miserable!"

Clearly, he was threatening Cassie. But his menacing face and words repulsed her.

With a frown, Cassie shook herself free from his grip and asked nonchalantly, "Are you threatening me? You have the audacity to threaten a medical staff member?"

"Yes, you got it right! I am threatening you!"

Jordan didn't try to conceal his intention; instead, he grinned and openly admitted it.

"Well, fine! I suggest you transfer your girlfriend to another hospital. Since you don't trust me and this hospital, I don't think I want to take this responsibility. If anything unexpected happens to her during the operation, I am pretty sure you will blame me! However, here is what I think-- you knew the hospital I work for, yet you let the ambulance bring your girlfriend here. Did you do that on purpose?" Cassie was boiling with rage. In the past, Jordan had done terrible things to her. Just the mere thought of it sent shivers down her spine. Yet she had been dumb enough to put up with him. But now, she wasn't the old Cassie. She couldn't watch silently as he tried to discredit her professional morals. Everything about him was impossible to endure!

"Cassie! You…"

Jordan roared angrily. He sharply pointed his finger at Cassie and opened his mouth to say something. After consideration, he decided to keep silent, though. Cassie looked at him with unflinching eyes, and said, "Your girlfriend needs immediate treatment! If you want to delay it, then I won't stop you!" Cassie rolled her eyes. Without a word, she turned and headed to the operating room.

Despite his anger, Jordan resigned himself to what Cassie had said.

The whole process only lasted for about an hour.

The doctor and nurses came out with happy faces.

"Doctor, how is my girlfriend doing? Is she okay?" Jordan wasn't at ease at all. Once the doctor came out, Jordan quickly walked over and grabbed the doctor's hand, asking for the result.

"Be at ease! The operation went well! The patient has suffered a serious anaphylactic reaction, but she is fine now. She should stay away from pollen! She is under narcosis. After an hour, she will wake up. You can see her then." The doctor left with the nurses as soon as he updated Jordan.

Cassie and several other nurses were informed to transfer the patient into a ward.

Noticing that Cassie was in charge of his girlfriend, Jordan was a bit alarmed. He immediately pushed Cassie away and grabbed his girlfriend's hand.

While doing so, he shoved Cassie aside and went with the other nurses to find the ward. Seeing this sudden reaction, Cassie stood stunned, helplessly shaking her head.
