Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)

Chapter 19

Chapter 19 Occupational Injury

When I regained consciousness, I found myself in the hospital again. I thought I must've been fated with Greenbow Hospital

The doctor, Patrick Price, said helplessly, "You're amazing, Eva Green. I've never encountered such a rebellious patient."

I sat up and hurriedly explained myself. "Dr. Price, heat me out. I wasn't being reckless this time. I just suddenly passed out.

"You're working so hard, yet you're not taking your medication. It's only normal that you pass out! You passed our today because of the sudden situation. If you can, you shouldn't work... Never mind. You should just be careful." Patrick couldn't finish his sentence because he knew that I was poor. I couldn't afford to not work, I simply nodded at the doctor's words. Now that I had a salary, I could survive.

Patrick looked at my case lile and whispered, "It's time for you to get the injection. It's pricey and you need to make a reservation. Can you afford it now?"

"es I can make a reservation. Would you need me to make a prepayment?" I asked hopefully.

Isilently calculated how much money I would receive when the project succeeded.

Upon hearing my words, Patrick sighed in relief. He told me that I didn't have to pay a deposit and that he would make the reservation on my behalf. But with the impending chemotherapy. he was concerned about me.

"Your situation isn't looking too bright. A third relapse could occur. You should remain optimistic. I would recommend you start chemotherapy sooner and make sure nutrients. You're too skinny"
