A Replacement Bride

Chapter 34

"Let me see." Katherine saw the look in Joaquin's eyes as well as the teenager lying on the ground.

Suddenly, she remembered the teenager who fell in front of her back in Fontan.

The teenager was of similar age. At that time, she was lacking in her ability and medical skills to save him. As such, she could only watch as he died in front of her from excessive blood loss.

That was also when she realized the significance of becoming a doctor.

At the very least, one would not feel helpless if their loved ones were dying.

With a deep breath, she knelt down next to Joaquin and reached out to apply pressure to the teenager's wound.

"What are you doing?"

Before Katherine could touch the teenager, she was aggressively pushed away.

It was the same 190cm tall man who doubted her when she first came in.

Caught off guard, Katherine stumbled and fell to the ground, feeling a burning pain on her shoulder.

These were the people who worked out and had a shocking amount of strength. Hence, they would not hesitate to strike regardless of the opponent's gender.

With a shove as aggressive as that, Katherine knew her shoulder must have been bruised.

"Are you trying to kill the patient?" She looked up and stared at the tall man coldly.

The man was about to open his mouth to speak when Joaquin's cold voice interrupted him, "Ian! That's enough!"

As bitter as Ian was, he could only endure it since Joaquin had spoken. However, he was still concerned that Katherine would endanger the patient, so he stated, "The patient's injuries are really serious; even the team doctor said that they have run out of solutions, let alone…"
