Chapter 1283 Forfeit
Cornelius glanced at Queenie helplessly. He would have trusted his sister in the past, but his experiences throughout
this period have taught him that even his sister was not trustworthy at times. Nonetheless, he wanted to avoid
antagonizing her.
Since she wants to compete for the position as the head of the Mills, I must avoid distracting her from her goal.
“I know. Anyway, good luck, and whenever something happens, try to think it through first before jumping to
conclusions.” Cornelius brushed his fingers through Queenie’s smooth, silky hair before leaving.
His gentle act elevated Queenie’s mood. She was happy that her brother still loved and cared for her.
“Don, bring me that stethoscope…” While instructing Donovan, Queenie pushed the wheelchair over to the patient.

Since Arielle was away at the moment, Cornelius got Donovan to assist Queenie.
With Arielle gone, Queenie appeared to be more relaxed. She examined the patient in front of her thoroughly and
with all seriousness.
Meanwhile, Arielle was being chased away by the elderly lady.
“Why are you following me? Aren’t you supposed to go back to Silverbirch Hospital!”
“Ma’am, I’m a doctor, and you’re a patient. It’s only natural that I’m here to help you!” Putting on her brightest
smile, Arielle ignored the obviously disgruntled elderly lady and held her arm.
“I’ve already left the hospital. So leave me alone! Hurry back to serve the other patients. Don’t waste your time on
me!”
The patients in Silverbirch Hospital arrived many days in advance. Knowing the purpose of their visit, the elderly
lady didn’t want to get in the way of Arielle’s candidacy.

“Even if you have left the hospital, that does not mean that you are no longer my patient. Stop worrying about
irrelevant matters, Ma’am. Have faith in me and I guarantee that I will diagnose your illness and cure it.”
Naturally, the elderly lady did not want to appear in public with an inflated belly, but it all happened abruptly and
without warning.
The way others looked at her made her feel embarrassed and angry.
Her original plan was to return to her hometown and live alone. However, her children disagreed with it and insisted
that she consult a doctor.
To avoid upsetting her kids, she agreed to their proposal eventually.
The elderly lady didn’t know the emotion that she was feeling, but her eyes shimmered with hope upon hearing
Arielle’s words. “Since you insist, I can only oblige.”

Arielle pursed her lips upon seeing the elderly lady’s snobbish response. While they were on their way, she found
that the elderly woman’s children were the ones that had sent her to Silverbirch Hospital, and they promised to pick
her up in a week.
As the elderly lady left Silverbirch Hospital abruptly and refused to go back, Arielle had to look for a neighboring
hotel for accommodation.
After everything was settled, Arielle contacted Sasha to bring her backpack.
Being a bodyguard, Sasha was not allowed to follow Arielle around when the latter was treating the patients.
Hence, she was waiting in the room the entire time and did not even realize that Arielle was gone.
After receiving Arielle’s call, Sasha headed to where Queenie was to collect Ariell’s backpack. After packing Arielle’s
belongings, Sasha swiftly left the place.
Seeing that Sasha was leaving with Arielle’s belongings, Queenie figured that Arielle would not be coming back.
Almost immediately, she chuckled in response.
