Chapter 43
Sophia looked through the visible window at the entrance of the ward,
The first thing that caught his eye was a tall and slender figure standing by the bedside. It was Tristan,
He was standing with his back to the door, se she could not see the expression on his face.
A woman in a white coat held medical records to the right of Tristan. She looked up at him, her head slightly tilted.
She had wavy hair tied up in a high ponytail, revealing a beautifully made up face that looked smart and capable. Her tone was calin and convincing. “Mr. Yeats, for your grandpa’s health, you should consider carefully”
“I have considered it.” Tristan’s voice was calm, “I will bear any consequences myself.
“Mr. Yeats,” the doctor’s delicate eyebrows furrowed and her tone became more serious, “you should trust our team’s professional jurlgment. Didn’t you choose our team for your grandfather’s treatment because you trust us? Isn’t it because our team collaborates with Mr. Young of the Shadow Clan in drug research?”
Seemingly because “Mr. Young‘ was mentioned. Tristan’s eyebrows lifted slightly as he glanced sideways at the doctor.
The female doctor hugged the medical records closer to her chest and stepped closer to Tristan, her voice getting softer. “Mr. Yeats, please rest assured that our team will do everything within our power to provide the best possible care for your grandfather
As she spoke, she extended a hand towards him.
It seemed as if she wanted to hold Tristan’s hand to encourage him.
Suddenly, the door to the ward was pushed open with a bang. Gary walked in with one hand in his pocket and a calm demeanor.
He took a quick look at the female doctor, noticing her hand almost touching Tristan’s. With a playful sparkle in his eyes, he asked, “Hey, Dr. Gomez, am I interrupting something?”
Dr. Gomez pressed her lips together, quickly pulled her hand back, changed her expression in a flash, and put on a professional face. “I just wanted to remind Mr. Yeats that his grandpa’s situation is complicated. We can’t rush things here; since Mr. Tomlins is around, please.”
The words were not yet finished when Xenia Gomez caught sight of a girl standing at the door of the ward, wearing a simple hoodie and carrying a backpack.
She looked around, checking the girl out from head to toe, her expression turning serious “Who are you? How did you get into the VIP‘ ward?”
With that, she turned around and walked toward the door.
Her gaze fell on Sophia’s cold and exquisite face, and a trace of disgust appeared in her eyes.
The girl’s outfit, which was probably worth no more than 70 dollars altogether, made Xenia curious about how she even got in there.
She had seen many girls like this. They tried to use their looks to snag a rich husband in this affluent VIE‘ arca
Xenia’s eyes filled with even more contempt.
She raised her hand, intending to call security with the intercom.
Tristan, however, had already crossed over to the door in quick steps and stood in front of the girl.
He lowered his head slightly and focused on the girl’s face. His eyes, usually so indifferent, had a soft and gentle look in them.
“Soll, you’re here. His voice was clear and lazy like spring water. He had a slight smile on his face.
Xenia’s heart trembled suddenly. Her eyes widened and she looked up in shock at the man who had walked past her to stand before her, her throat tightening slightly.
Mr. Yeats knew the girl, who looked extraordinarily ordinary except for her face, and called her by name intimately she thought.
Tristan’s profile was nice. When he stared at the girl, his thin lips curled up slightly.
That smile pierced Xenia’s eyes like a needle.
It was the first time she had seen such an expression on Tristan’s face.

Xenia felt a sharp twist in her heart. The mallee in her eyes was even more obvioan. “So Mr. Yeats knows this young lady? Bin let me remind you that your grandpa isn’t feeling too well now. He needs to resi quleily, so it’s best if we don’t let any unrelated people bother lan
Tristan’s face suddenly turned dark and cold, his hazel pupils glowing with a cold light. A col ra surrounded his body.
He was about to speak. Sophia nonchalantly lifted her head, her lazy but clear eyes casually landing on Xenia
Her cold tone had a sharp bite to it. “Dr. Gomez, right? Is this really how a doctor should dress heavy makeup and a mini skirt during work hours?”
Her eyes scanned the room slowly before she raised her delicate hand to cover her mouth and nose. “In a patient ward where things are pretty serious and people need their rest, wearing such strong perfume. What is Dr. Gomez trying to hide? A body odor or something?”
Her cold tone and calm eyes made her appear even more cold and attractive.
“Are you questioning my professional abilities)”, Xenia’s expression changed, her delicate brows furrowed tightly
Sophia’s eyes were cool as she looked over at Xenia. First, her gaze landed on her face, and then it drifted down to her long slender legs in black silk peeking out from under her open white coat
She didn’t speak, but her eyes showed her amusement.

Xenia’s chest heaved with anger. She wanted to retort but found herself with nothing to say.
She had heard that Tristan was going to visit his grandfather, so she made sure to put on some really nice makeup. Under her white cout, the chose a snug little skirt to show off her gorgeous long legs
As a professional doctor and the deputy leader of the team that Tristan specifically brought back, when she found out coming by, it only made sense for her to dress up nicely and look good.
Sophia simply saw her interest in Tristan and felt threatened. She said those things on purpose.
Xenia looked displeased and stared coldly at Sophia.

She did not notice that Tristan, who had seemed so imposing at first, had lost the coldness in his eyes as a result of the girl’s words and was now looking deeply and quietly into the girl’s face.
Standing behind Xenia, Gary gave Sophia a thumbs–up and silently mouthed, “Nice!”
attention to her if Xenia had not targeted her.
Without another word, Sophia raised an eyebrow and walked past Xenia into the ward She was not someone who caused trouble for everyone she met. She would have paid no Xenia’s actions made it obvious to everyone what she was up to, and honestly, she couldn’t be called a professional doctor.
However, Xenia evidently didn’t intend to let Sophia off so easily.
Especially when she saw Sophia ignoring her and continuing to walk into the ward, her face darkened and she immediately turned to block Sophia’s path, “Stop right there!”
“Dr. Gomez, she’s the miracle doctor Tristan specially invited, so watch your attitude,” Cary said, stepping aside to block Xenia, his charming eyebrows slightly raised:
