Reese looked at the angry Anthony, and said, "Anthony, don't be angry, her temper is like this. | know, things are
definitely not as what she said, right?"
Although Anthony didn't want to see Mariel, he couldn't lose his temper with Reese as well.
He looked at Reese and nodded, and started talking with a helpless tone: "This morning, there was an
emergency operation, the patient's family requestedto preform the operation. That's was why | needed to
chere abruptly. Along the way, something happened, and the patient suddenly felt unwell. Due to the
accident, | was delayed. When | arrived in the hospital, the operation had already started, and the vice president
was performing the surgery, so | didn't go in! The patient's family members are in a bad mood, and the operation
is still in progress, so | just hope it will be successful!"
Hearing Anthony's explanation, Mariel raised her eyes and glanced at him with a complicated expression.
Obviously, in the face of life-threatening emergencies, Mariel realized her mistake.
She whispered, "You didn't say anything, that you have to chere for the operation!"

Anthony's expression turned livid. "I said it already; | have something urgent, don't you understand the meaning
of "something urgent"? Do you still wantto explain it clearly to you, a stranger? Besides, what was your
attitude at that time, you insisted on stoppingwhile | was leaving. Even after | explained it to you, you still
think I'm a quack doctor, right!"
Reese nodded understanding the situation. She knows that he isn't that kind of person.
Mariel suddenly wilted like a dying flower. She was so emotional at the time, so she reasoned out what she
thought was right.
Reese shook her head disappointedly, and apologized to Anthony. "I'm really sorry Director Rivers... She really
doesn't know the situation, and she didn't mean it, so don't be angry!"
Anthony waved his hand, "There is nothing to be angry about, | just hope the operation goes well!"
Reese said, "Then you are now..."
Anthony looked at Reese's puzzled eyes, and immediately understood what she
meant, "lI chere temporarily to replace an orthopedic surgeon!"
Reese nodded, "Then please take a look at her waist and ankles."
As soon as Reese said those words, Mariel almost jumped up from her sit, "I don't want him to check me!"
Reese's expression turned serious, "Shut up, don't mess around anymore!"
Mariel silently shut her mouth and looked at Reese aggrievedly. Although she admitted that she had done
something wrong this time, she still felt awkward asking Anthony to examine her now!
Reese has already registered, how can she let it toss around with her petty temper, and Anthony's medical skills
are fine; there's no need to change him.
Mariel's resistance was futile, and in the end, she let Anthony check her waist and ankle.
Anthony kept his dark expression all the time, as if someone owed him millions.

It was already noon when they finished the check up. Anthony still had to go to the outpatient clinic. Reese took
Mariel to have a lunch, while supporting her limping friend.
Reese had just finished ordering sfood when she received a call from Ava. "Lia, where are you?" Ava was
always indifferent, but when heard her voice now, it was filled with anger.
Reese frowned and replied, "Eat out, what's wrong?"
Ava looked coldly at the two men who were fighting not far away and said in a harsh voice, "Cole and Elias
fought at the entrance of the company!"
Holding her phone, Reese stood up in surprise "Ah! Why are they fighting?"
Ava suppressed her anger and said, "I don't know. When | went downstairs, | saw them both downstairs as well,
and they wanted to treatto lunch. Before | could answer, the two of them started arguing, and they started
fighting because of disagreement!"
Reese felt a headache and pursed her lips, "Then are you okay?"
Ava took a deep breath: "I'm watching from the sideline now!"
