A Replacement Bride

Chapter 48

Ben could not help but notice Katherine's condensed complexion. Her dark pupils that were zeroed in on the operating table were particularly visible under the light.

At this point, he had completely wiped off the impression that she was arrogant and lacking in skills.

He reasoned that ten years of study would not allow him to reach Katherine's level and her surgical skills appeared unfamiliar to him, at least not when he was studying medicine.

For the entire four-hour long surgery, she had never taken a breather and only put down her scalpel until the very last stitch was completed.

"Why is my brother here with you?" She ripped off her mask and stared at Ben, expressionless.

She did not bother pretending knowing that the Cornells were not around.

Ben had not recovered from the shock when he heard her voice and he was stunned for a moment. "What?"

"Please explain why my brother is here with you instead of being admitted to the hospital," Katherine repeated calmly.

Had it not been for the fact that Keith's injury had obviously been treated when she arrived, she would not have spoken to Ben in such a friendly manner, but rather with action.

"He was brought here by someone. If I can't even save a patient, no one in Hovington…"

Ben was unable to get the few words out of his mouth. When he saw Katherine in front of him, he swallowed it self-consciously, not daring to be arrogant.

"Your medical knowledge is exceptional. Where did you pick them up? I've been in the medical field for many years and have never seen anything like this. Do you have a background in both Chinese and Western medicine?" Ben did not continue the conversation, but rather abruptly changed the subject.

Katherine remained silent; instead, she removed the blood-stained disposable gloves and tossed them into the trash can beside her.

"Send him to the ward. He requires a blood transfusion. He's type B." She issued a command to the nurse and the nurse quickly agreed and sent Keith to the ward for a blood transfusion.

Following that, Katherine went to wash and disinfect her hands before leaving the operating room.

Soon, Ben quickly ran after her and asked, "Which master did you learn medicine from? Why don't you just tell me?"
