Leah said helplessly, "I've been busy with the company's affairs recently, and I truly can't spare any time."
"You have a talent in medicine. If you don't take this opportunity to learn from me, once I can no longer teach in the future, such a good talent like you will be gone to waste," Paul sighed heavily, his tone full of regret, thinking it would be such a pity.
He lamented in his heart, "As I've finally found a promising student, it turns out that she is unwilling to learn. What should I do?"
Leah looked at Paul's gray hair and dejected look, suddenly finding her heart unable to bear it.
She held out her little hand and patted his shoulder. "Please don't be sad. All right, I promise I will try my best to find the time to learn medical skills from you, okay?"
Despite saying so, she couldn't stop having a headache the moment she agreed.
Truthfully, she was not very interested in medicine.
Early in her life, she once accompanied her father to see a doctor. At that time, she thought the doctor was amazing, so she watched him while asking a few questions to satisfy her curiosity.
Unexpectedly, her sudden whim was noticed by Paul, and he kept praising her for her talent, saying that he wanted to accept her as his student.
She was reluctant at first, but she couldn't stand the old man's brazen request, so she finally agreed.
Upon hearing Leah's promise, the dim light in Paul's eyes instantly brightened, and a smile immediately bloomed on his face.
"Then it's settled. You can't lie to me."
"I know," Leah said, then raised her wrist to look at her watch. Seeing it was getting late, she stood up from her chair and said, "It's getting late. I should go back now."
Paul first looked outside, then
lowered his voice and asked, "Did
you have a fight with Quentin? Aren't you the one who usually takes care of Madam Worthington? Why are you no longer visiting her now?" "We didn't fight, but we're divorced now. And didn't you say that Madam Worthington can't be stimulated in any way in her condition now? If she sees me, she will definitely be emotionally unstable. I'd better leave first and wait until she feels better before I come to see her." Leah actually still wanted to visit Debra, but for the sake of her health, she decided not to go there.
"Great!" Paul snorted heavily, "I could already tell since you asked me to treat Madam Worthington that their whole family had not been treating you well. It's fine if they didn't even have a nice thing to say to you when you were taking care of Madam Worthington in the ward all the time, but they also treated you like a servant. Did you know? When I saw that scene, I really wanted to slap her, but I held myself back because you liked Quentin. As your teacher, it's not my place to comment, but now that you're divorced, Quentin
will regret it so much for missing out
on such a good wife like you!"
Perhaps not long ago, Leah would have been sad when she heard these words, but now her heart was so calm that it didn't affect her at all.
The name "Quentin" was already dead in her heart.
She said, "Let's not talk about the past. Take good care of your health. I'll visit you once I'm free."
Seeing Leah being at ease, Paul's smile reappeared on his face.
"Great. As expected of my student, I know you are able to let go of the past!"
Leah smiled thinly, waved at Paul, then turned around and left the hospital.
Once she was out of the hospital, she looked up at the night sky full of stars, and her clear eyes were gradually filled with determination.
Starting from now, she would live for herself, no one could stop her!
