A Replacement Bride

Chapter 50

"I'm sorry to break the news to you, Mrs. Cornell, but all of the nerves in your left hand have been damaged and your only option is to amputate your arm."

Lisa was frantically sent over to the hospital. Following the examination, the doctor perused the diagnosis results in his hand before looking sympathetically at her.

As soon as Lisa heard the result, she jumped up and reached out to snatch the examination report from the doctor's hand while fixing her gaze on the result.

The words 'neuronal death' stunned her and froze her entire body. It was not until a while that she regained her composure.

"H-How is this even possible?"

"Mrs. Cornell, please make a decision as soon as possible. Your arm's nerves have all died and you must have it amputated right away. If it is not done, there is no guarantee that it will not affect other parts of the body." The doctor was unsurprised by her reaction and simply reminded her.

Slamming the examination report in the face of the doctor, Lisa exclaimed, "Impossible! I can't have my limbs amputated! You scammers! Bullsh*t! This examination result is obviously a forgery!"

Of course, she could not believe the fact that she had to amputate her neuronally dead arm when she was still feeling perfectly fine hours ago.

How could Katherine be capable of transforming me into this state with a single touch?

I cannot and will not accept this.

She walked out with a cold expression on her face before pushing the doctor in front of her away with her right hand. I want to go to the best hospital in town and receive another checkup! The doctors here are obviously deceiving me!

Meanwhile, Katherine returned to Ben's clinic after leaving the Cornell Residence. The poor boy was still asleep and the wound on his face was not getting any better. She looked at him for a long time, remembering how proud and careful he was with his beautiful face. He will probably cry once he wakes up.

After a while of guarding by the hospital bed, Katherine raised her hand and rubbed her temples before getting up to leave. She then took a cab straight to Theodore's research institute.
