Chapter 402

Selene raised her hand and said decisively, “You shouldn’t have said this to me; you should have said it to Ophelia.”

Isabelle pinched her palm hard and turned to Ophelia. Ophelia was growing fonder of the old man, and when she saw Isabelle, she gave a faint smile. At this moment, a generous person would have said “it’s okay” before Isabelle spoke, but Ophelia was not like that. She didn’t say anything, and even when Isabelle gritted her teeth and remained silent, she raised her eyebrows slightly. “Why isn’t Ms. Whitaker speaking?”

Isabelle was on the verge of spitting blood, but in the presence of Selene and others, she had no choice but to say, “I’m sorry.”

Ophelia was somewhat dissatisfied with this perfunctory attitude, and she didn’t hide her dissatisfaction at all. She furrowed her brows lightly and reluctantly said, “Just this? Well, I just hope that such things won’t happen again in the future.”

She looked at Isabelle and tugged her lip, not quite smiling. “How long has it been since I came to National Medical School? I’ve had so many encounters with Ms. Whitaker already; I haven’t even had time to adjust to the environment.”

As she said this, everyone realized it seemed to be true. Ophelia had just arrived at National Medical School that day when she ran into Isabelle at the entrance. Right in front of the camera, Isabelle implied that Ophelia had cheated on her exams. On her first day of class, without being familiar with anything, Isabelle was given the “opportunity” to join the team treating Desmond. Although it was indeed an opportunity for Ophelia, she ultimately managed to wake up the vegetative patient, which surprised everyone in the National Medical School when they heard the news.

But didn’t Isabelle already determine that Ophelia was a fake? So what does it mean for her to urge Ophelia to seek treatment? Isn’t it just to embarrass her?

The crowd was reminded, and all of them belatedly realized, with a hint of doubt in their eyes, they looked at Isabelle. And then, later on, there was the matter of treating Winford’s illness. Winford had been sick for quite some time, and Isabelle never thought about going to treat him before. It just so happened that it was when Ophelia got into National Medical School! It just so happened that it was when I found out that Winford and Ophelia were married!

Finally, it is now. Isabelle called everyone for a meeting as soon as she arrived today. She said to persuade them to vote and wanted to expel Ophelia from National Medical School! All these things, one by one, usually unnoticed, but when carefully analyzed and connected, it turns out that Isabelle was the one taking the initiative! Was she really not intentionally picking a fight?

A few days ago, Selene was in Kingchester and was not very familiar with the place. However, after hearing a few things, her mood also became subtle. She looked at Isabelle with a scrutinizing gaze, previously thinking that this younger generation could be well-cultivated and perhaps become her successor. Therefore, she was pleased to see Isabelle’s actions of managing her own influence and gradually becoming a leader at National Medical School. But now, she began to hesitate. The successor of National Medical School is not only capable but also highly valued for their character and morality. Not to mention, there was now an even more astonishingly talented Ophelia than Isabelle.

Let’s take another look. Ophelia took in everyone’s reactions, and a slight smirk tugged at the corner of her lips.
