Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 552

Chapter 552 I Will Make Her Apologize

Kate got sent to the hospital. As soon as she got brought into the operating room, she woke up. The other doctors and nurses left, leaving only the attending physician.

“Dr. Nate Nestor? I have something to discuss with you,” Kate softly said.

Nate immediately stepped forward. He respectfully replied, “Go ahead, Mrs. Hisson.”

“My son will be here any minute now. I’d like you to make it sound like my illness is serious. Of course, I don’t want you to scare him too much. I’ll let you decide what you’re going to say to him.”

Kate gave Nate a flirtatious look. Nate seemed like he was in a trance. It took a while before he came back to his senses.

Nate had also been Kate’s attending physician last time. He was very aware of her condition. He knew there was nothing wrong with her upon looking at her complexion. And so, he asked her curiously, “Mrs. Hisson, I don’t see anything wrong with you. Why would you want to trick Mr. Derrick?”

“You don’t need to know. Just do as I say. You’re a doctor, after all. I shouldn’t need to tell you this,” Kate replied.

Nate thought for a while before nodding. He said, “Don’t worry, Mrs. Hisson. I’ll do as you wish.”

Kate nodded in satisfaction.

Nate allowed the other doctors and nurses to come in. After casually giving them instructions, they brought Kate into a ward meant for one person.

When Derrick and Finnick received the news that Kate was admitted to the hospital, they immediately rushed over.

They entered the ward and saw Kate lying on the hospital bed unconscious. Nate was giving her an IV drip. After that, he turned around and saw Derrick and Finnick. He immediately greeted, “Mr. Hisson, Mr. Derrick. You’re here.”

“Dr. Nestor, how is my mom?” Derrick asked.

“Mr. Hisson, Mr. Derrick. Let’s talk in my office,” Nate replied.

As the three of them entered the office, Nate pointed at the couch and said, “Please have a seat. I’ll go grab some water.”

Nate brought three glasses of water and placed them on the table. Then, he let out a cough on purpose and stated, “Mr. Hisson, Mr. Derrick. I won’t talk much about Mrs. Hisson’s illness. I think you guys already understand what exactly happened. This time around, she fainted because of shock. I remember saying that she shouldn’t stress too much because of her illness. It could have been life-threatening if it was more serious. Fortunately, she got brought to the hospital on time. She could have died if she had arrived a few seconds later. You can go and comfort Mrs. Hisson once she wakes up. Keep her in a good mood.”

Derrick looked at Nate. He asked, “Dr. Nestor, my mom fainted. Is it very serious?”

“I can’t really say that it’s serious. There won’t be any issues as long as she recovers well. If she does get another shock, though, then it won’t be pretty,” Nate explained to the best of his ability.

Derrick nodded his head in response.

“Dr. Nestor, I’m sorry if my wife’s illness caused you any trouble,” Finnick stated.

“Don’t say that, Mr. Hisson. I’m a doctor. My job is to save lives,” Nate replied graciously.

After exchanging pleasantries with each other, Finnick and Derrick left the office.

As they entered the ward, they walked over to the bedside. Kate woke up at that very moment.

As soon as she saw Derrick, she immediately looked away.

Finnick walked over to the other side. He sat on the edge of the bed and grabbed her hand that was not attached to the IV drip. He said in a soft tone, “How are you, dear? You were just fine. How did you end up fainting?”

Kate burst into tears without even saying anything. Her eyes reddened.

“Finnick! Make Derrick leave! I don’t want to see him! His good girlfriend made me so angry that I nearly suffocated. I kindly invited her to a meal. But then, I went straight to the hospital after eating. I can’t believe he insists on being with Tiffany. Honestly, I think I’ll die sooner or later!” Kate said emotionally.

Finnick was very distressed.

He took out a clean handkerchief to wipe Kate’s tears off her face. Then, he softly responded, “Don’t cry. You’re way too old to be crying. Talk to me. Tell me who made you so angry. I’ll decide what to do with them.”

Kate stopped crying and replied, “Who else if not Tiffany! I had invited her to a meal. But then, she made rude comments about me out of the blue. I fell to the ground in a fit of rage. When I asked her to help me get my medicine, she took her bag and left without helping me. If the waitresses hadn’t come in and seen me lying on the ground, I honestly might not have made it here.” After saying this, she shed her tears silently.

Kate was quite beautiful. However, her beauty diminished when she started crying earlier. It made her appear weak and helpless. Anyone who saw her would feel like helping her to the best of their abilities.

Derrick frowned. He calmly stated, “Mom, Tiff isn’t that kind of person. Maybe you misunderstood her?”
