Chapter 348
Jenny rarely heard Paul praise someone. However, judging from his tone, he wasn’t being polite or flattering anyone. Instead, he truly thought Skylar was worthy of admiration
In that instant, Jenny’s heart sank. Under the blanket, her hands were clasped tightly together.
In a hospital in Jipsburg City, derogatory remarks were heard coming from a ward. Patients from the
other wards couldn’t sleep in peace because of that.
So, they complained to the staff nurse, Hilary Dean.
Hilary had a headache upon receiving those complaints.
She’d never expected a lady from a distinguished family to be so ill–mannered. Besides, although her
family seemed conscientious, they were actually perfunctory in caring for her.
They showed no patience toward her at all. Otherwise, the patient wouldn’t have had such a slow
recovery and kept losing her temper.
She was only throwing tantrums because of her family’s attitude. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Hilary had seen various patients and their families. She understood what was actually happening.
As she entered the ward, she saw a smashed bowl and spilled food on the floor. She was startled. It was
more serious than she’d thought. She was truly rendered speechless.
In the ward, food was splattered all over Samuel and Peter. They were in a sorry state. Both men were dashing. They were from a wealthy family, after all. Yet now, their branded clothes were all ruined.
When Samuel saw Hilary enter, his face changed. Suppressing his anger, he told Sadie, “Mom, can you
stop acting up?”
“Acting up? If you treated me better and taken better care of me, would I be so mad? All I did was complain about being in discomfort and that the food was not to my taste.

herself.
She’d just gone through the pain of amputation and needed her family’s undivided care at this moment.
But what had they done?
They’d scorned her for being disabled!
They were impatient with her and didn’t take good care of her. Despite staying in the ward with her, they were all playing with their phones. When she wanted some water, they thought she was being fussy.
Upon listening to her, Samuel and Peter looked grumpy.
Samuel, in particular, couldn’t put up with it anymore. “Can you not be so unreasonable, Mom? It’s good

enough that we put our work aside to accompany you, you know? Why can’t you understand us?”
He couldn’t understand how his elegant and well–mannered mother had ended up in this state. She was
no different from a shrew now.
Sadie was so mad that her eyes reddened. “You! I worked hard to raise you all, and this is how you treat
me?”
They always had a comeback for whatever she said.
Peter frowned. His patience wore out.
Hilary understood what was going on after listening to them. Sadie’s family must not have tried their best to comfort her. That was why Sadie was so displeased.
Hilary said, “Other patients‘ families have complained that you’re too noisy. It’s not easy to look after a patient, especially when she has just come out of surgery.
“She will have mood swings, and that, in turn, requires more patience from the family to communicate and console her. Is there anyone else in the family who can look after her?”
The last question was directed to Samuel and Peter. Peter refused to say anything.
