Nancy drove to the hospital. As soon as she walked out of the elevator, Erin rushed to meet her.
"Director Nancy, the patient needs to be treated right away."
"Okay, I will first examine the patient's wounds. Meanwhile, have them prepare for the surgery. We will
begin in ten minutes," Nancy ordered.
"Director Nancy, there is another patient that needs immediate attention. The little boy has a severe
condition of cavus feet. His father has the same ailment so it seems to be a family illness. However, the
child is still very young. What should we do?" Erin said with reluctance.
"I will attend to him later." Nancy quickly walked into the office, changed her clothes, and rushed to the
ward.
The patient was a little boy, who seemed seven or eight years old.
"Director Nancy, please help our child. He fell off his bike when he was three years old, and the wound
did not heal completely. It caused osteomyelitis so the wound still has exudate until now. It has been
five years, but his leg remained short. We don't know what to do anymore," the child's mother cried.
Such injuries were usually caused by doctors' wrong diagnosis.
The doctor who treated the boy might be inexperienced and failed to detect the osteomyelitis in time.
And it caused the wound to deteriorate and not heal even after a long time.
"Don't worry. His condition can be cured," said Nancy affirmatively.
"What if his leg remains permanently short?"
"It can be extended so everything will be okay. I promise you that after a year, the child's legs will be
the same as normal children's legs except for scars." The bone-lengthening surgery was already very
mature so it would not be a difficult operation.
Of course, Nancy was confident.
"If that's the case, I will thank you on behalf of the child, Director Nancy," the child's mother cried with
joy.
"You're welcome. So that's it. Get ready, and prepare the child for the surgery. We will begin in ten
minutes," Nancy advised.
"Okay," the child's mother agreed.
"First, disinfect the child's wound and clean the blood scab around it," Nancy ordered the nurse.
"Got it, Director Nancy."
Nancy walked out and went to another ward.
The patient was only a little over one year old. His feet were too high-arched to walk.
This kind of hereditary disease was relatively difficult to treat.
"Director Nancy, what should we do?" the mother of the child asked anxiously when she saw Nancy
come in.
"The child is still too young. I need to develop a treatment plan and give you my recommendations
tomorrow," said Nancy after checking the child's feet.
"Director Nancy, my husband's feet are the same. What should we do?" The woman dragged the man
standing next to her toward Nancy.
After checking the man's feet, Nancy discovered that his condition was also very serious. Although this
man could walk, his feet were crooked.
"I can perform the surgery, but you have to think about it. If your child and husband undergo the
operation at the same time, will you be able to take care of them both?" asked Nancy.
The man hesitated and said, "Do it for the child first. I've lived like this for many years so I'm used to it."
"Alright. If that's the case, then please get ready. We can schedule the operation as soon as tomorrow
afternoon." The child was too young, so Nancy must carefully develop the treatment plan.
"Thank you, Director Nancy," the man said gratefully.
"No problem. I have an operation this morning so I have to go."
"Goodbye, Director Nancy." Nancy left the room.
She waved her hand and walked to the operating room.
It was not difficult to communicate with the reasonable family members of patients. The tension
between doctors and patients was often due to poor communication.
In many cases, the patient's family members were too impatient and the doctor would feel as if the
family lacked knowledge so the doctor tended to explain too much. But in the end, the doctor's highly
technical explanation would be difficult for the family to understand, causing more misunderstanding.
Although the success rate of the osteomyelitis operation was very high, it always took long hours to
finish.
The operation didn't end until two o'clock in the afternoon because the necrotic tissue had to be
cleaned up without any residue.
After standing for several hours, Nancy's legs were trembling as she walked out of the operating room.
Also, she bled too much in the past few days which made her feel weaker. She sat on a chair to get a
bit of rest. She was so exhausted. She felt like she would collapse at any minute.
It felt like she had just finished a marathon.
"Director Nancy... Someone is here to see you," Erin said nervously as she approached Nancy.
Nancy thought it was a patient, so she said lightly, "Let her in."
"Yes..." When Erin was about to tell her that the visitor was Angelina, she had already walked in.
Nancy was stunned. "Aunt?"
'Why was she here?
But nothing good would happen with her here.'
"Well, you can go out now," Angelina said to the nurse coldly.
Erin looked at Nancy worriedly and went out.
"What's the matter, Aunt?" asked Nancy politely.
"Yes, I did have a reason for coming here. Nancy, don't you know that something happened to
Charles?" Angelina sat down and sighed.
"What happened?" Nancy had been too busy to check her phone.
Therefore, it was not surprising that she didn't know about Charles leaving the TS Group.
"You see, Charles lost his job," Angelina said in a voice dripping with sarcasm.
Her tone sounded like she was implying that it was because of Nancy that Charles lost his job.
In fact, in Angelina's heart, she believed that the reason Charles left the TS Group had something to do
with Nancy.
If it weren't for the relationship between Nancy and Edward, how could Derrick get the goods on
Charles?
And this caused Frederic to strip off Charles' position as president of TS Group.
"Charles lost his job? How did that happen?" When Nancy heard the news, she was naturally shocked.
The TS Group was a family business and very few people could control Charles.
Was it Frederic?
Why would he do that?
"You're asking why? Frederic is exasperated with you. He is enraged by your vague and controversial
relationship with Edward and that you called the police to take Joseph away, so he vented all his anger
on Charles. They say that marrying a good woman can make one family prosperous, and marrying a
bad woman can destroy them. I didn't believe it before, but now... I can't help but believe it!"
Obviously, Angelina meant that Nancy was a corrupt woman.
Nancy was so angry that her heart thumped. No wonder Angelina was unwilling to accept her. It turned
out that she always judged her to be an indecent woman.
"Mrs. Fu, what do you want me to do? Just tell me." Nancy never liked to beat around the bush.
Moreover, she had a lot of work to do that she couldn't waste time with Angelina either. "Many patients
are waiting for me. I'm very busy."
"Humph, Nancy, I know you don't love Charles. Otherwise, you won't be so calm after knowing that he
lost his job. Look at me. As his mother, I didn't even sleep well last night. I begged Frederic to let
Charles off the hook, but he didn't listen to me. The key to solving the problem is you." Angelina took
out a handkerchief and wiped her tears.
