Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

Chapter 199

Nell’s expression momentarily changed because of Ryan’s question.

He still remembered Ryan. Though he refused to be Ryan’s orthopedic surgeon at first, he finally operated on Ryan for a leg injury.

If Ava, precisely Ashley, hadn’t begged him to treat Ryan, he wou have agreed.

Nell’s nephew was a race car driver, but he had never won one race against Ashley. To help his nephew to win the championship, he made a deal with Ashley.

He promised that as long as she agreed to give up her racing career, he would do her a favor and operate on Ryan.

Thinking of Ryan, she immediately agreed, which surprised Nell.

To help Ryan back on the track, she gave up what she loved and announced her retirement from motor racing at the height of her career.

For Nell, the deal with her was something unethical that couldn’t be known by the public.

However, as the primary beneficiary of the deal, Ryan had the right to know the truth.

“Don’t you know why I agreed to operate on you?” Nell, who looked a little overweight, asked with glistening eyes.

Ryan shook repeatedly. In fact, he had never thought about it before. He took it for granted that Nell agreed to treat him because he was one of the Ramos family.

After the operation, Ryan thanked Evan and Bertha for what they had done to him. And he was more grateful to Jessica than Ashley, his real

sister.

He hated Ashley so much that he didn’t want to see her face at all. Every time she came to visit him, Ryan drove her out of his ward without a single glance at her.

“In order to treat your leg, your family begged me several times. Finally, I agreed to operate on you,” Nell lied.

“I have a seminar to attend to, and I’m running out of
