Chapter 177

When Amanda first came to the clinic, she met a couple like this. She felt bad for the woman and helped her, but the man latched onto her. He even blackmailed her, demanding she buy them a car and a house and support them for life! They had the nerve to say, “Aren’t you rich? You should help us out!” Since then, Amanda had been wary of such people.

“Got it, Ms. Carter,” Elizabeth replied sincerely.

“Alright, take your lunch break,” Amanda said, taking off her glasses and rubbing her temples, looking exhausted.

Elizabeth walked over and offered, “Ms. Carter, let me give you a massage.”

Amanda was about to decline, but Elizabeth’s hands were so soothing that she couldn’t refuse.

“Did you learn this somewhere?” Amanda asked.

Elizabeth shook her head.

Amanda chuckled awkwardly, “People say the Percy family is full of doctors, but you lack medical skills. Guess that’s not true!”

Elizabeth didn’t argue. Amanda patted Elizabeth’s arm and took her to the cafeteria for lunch.

“Ms. Carter, bringing a student along?” a doctor from another clinic teased. “She looks familiar, isn’t she Ms. Percy?”

Elizabeth recognized him from anesthesiology.

Another doctor from cardiology laughed and asked, “Who did Ms. Percy rely on to get in here? And she’s your student?”

“Ms. Percy wasn’t brought in by Mr. York, was she?” someone else teased.

“No way!” the cardiology doctor said confidently.

The anesthesiology doctor nodded vigorously. “Definitely not Mr. York. He hates nepotism and despises people without skills. Just look at Esme; when has Mr. York ever spoken to her?”

As he spoke, the anesthesiology doctor looked Elizabeth up and down, clicking his tongue as if to say she was no different from Esme.

Elizabeth’s face darkened. Comparing her to Esme was an insult.

Just as Elizabeth was about to retort, a familiar voice came from the cafeteria, “Oh, you’re all here.”

Everyone turned and was stunned. It was Nick.

“Mr. York!” The anesthesiology and cardiology doctors rushed to greet him.

To their surprise, Nick ignored everyone and headed straight for Elizabeth, warmly shaking her hand and asking, “I heard you went to the clinic with Amanda today? How was it?”

A doctor from anesthesiology, thinking Nick was coming towards him, extended his hand, only to see Nick go straight to Elizabeth.

The beads and doctors of surrounding departments were all stunned. What was going on with Nick? He ignored all of them and went straight to Elizabeth, who supposedly got into cardiothoracic surgery through connections.

“Mr. York, you know her?” someone from anesthesiology asked curiously.

Nick smiled. “Yes, I do. She’s quite impressive!”

Chapter 177

The anesthesiology doctor twitched his mouth. Elizabeth was impressive?

“Mr. York, you must be joking. Everyone knows the Percy family is full of doctors, except for Ms. Percy who is…” The doctor didn’t finish the sentence, leaving Elizabeth some dignity.

Nick snorted. He pointed at the anesthesiology doctor and cursed, “Ignorant!”

With that, Nick went to eat with Elizabeth and Amanda. The anesthesiology doctors and others were left standing there in a daze. Nick praised someone with no skills as impressive. Wasn’t the ignorant one…
