Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 47 Saving a Person’s Life

Elspeth disregarded the woman’s chatter as she walked to the sick woman and prepared to perform first aid when someone tugged on her arm again.

The woman’s friend bellowed, “Hey, don’t you understand what I’m saying?! Stop messing around! You’ll be held accountable if you can’t save her!”

Elspeth glared at her coldly. Her fearsome glare frightened the woman, who immediately released her. “Okay, you can hold me accountable, but if you stop me again and her condition deteriorates, you’ll be held accountable.”

The woman was shocked by her remarks and hastily retracted her hands.

Elspeth squatted down and checked the woman’s condition carefully. After she realized that the woman’s condition wasn’t serious, she took out a pill from her pocket and stuffed it into the woman’s mouth.

“Hey!” Her friend shrieked. “What did you feed her?”

Elspeth had had enough. She turned around and threatened, “This is a hospital. If you scream at me again, I’ll ask the security guards to kick you out!”

The woman shrank away sheepishly. “I-I didn’t mean it. Who knows what you fed her? You would kill her if the pill didn’t work.”

Elspeth couldn’t be bothered by her. So, she turned back to check on the patient. For some reason, the patient began to pant even more, and her body trembled violently as if she had some kind of reaction to the medicine.

“Look at what you’ve done! She gets worse! What an ignorant brat! You kill her, do you know that?!”

The friend finally felt confident to curse Elspeth now. I knew that this brat was unreliable from the beginning! I made the right choice by yelling at her!

“Come and save my friend! This girl is killing her!” she wailed, worsening the situation.

A cold gleam flashed across Elspeth’s eyes. “It’s too early to tell.”

At this moment, the patient suddenly stopped breathing rapidly and slowly opened her eyes with a puzzled look, not knowing what had happened.

“You’re fine now. Please control your emotions and always bring your asthma medicine with you. You won’t be so lucky to bump into me next time.” Elspeth stood up and gave her some advice.
