Chapter 195
Kayden hurriedly caught Yasmine.
Kayden asked worriedly. “Doctor, when will Grandpa wake up?”
The doctor was still angry. He said a bit sullenly, “I don’t know. If he has a stroke, the consequences will be unthinkable.”
Cassandra said, “What kind of disease can make a doctor say that the consequences will be unthinkable?”
Cassandra couldn’t resist the urge but followed Kenneth upstairs. She heard the doctor speaking when she walked through the door.
Seeing that it was a little girl who interrupted him, the doctor didn’t take it seriously. He said to Kayden and others, “The top priority now is to send Maximilian to the hospital for further treatment. He will probably need surgery.”
Kayden hesitated. He thought, ‘Surgery?
Is it that serious?”
Cassandra snorted coldly, “Do you even have a medical license? Don’t you know how old he is? What if he dies in the operating room? Will you be responsible for it?”
Maximilian was about 80 years old. Whether he could survive the surgery was still a question, no matter if the surgery was a success or not.
The doctor said, “Who are you to question my capability? You probably weren’t even born yet when I started my career as a doctor.”
The doctor glanced at Cassandra. He thought she was probably only eighteen or nineteen years old and she was too audacious to talk to him like that.
Cassandra said, “What you said is nonsense. Why can’t I question your capability?”
The doctor said, “Which part of my words is nonsense? The old man is in a dangerous situation now. He doesn’t have much time. A surgery is inevitable. The doctor had years of experience so he thought he must be right.
Kayden couldn’t help but say, “Cassie, Grandpa is in danger. The doctor said before that he couldn’t take any drastic mood swings. Today… Anyway, we should take the doctor’s advice.
The doctor had been taking care of Maximilian’s health for many years and he never made a mistake. So, Kayden believed in him.
Cassandra said, “If you listen to him and put your grandfather into the operating room. Get ready for a funeral.”
Cassandra’s words made everyone look at each other in surprise. The doctor felt humiliated. He said, “You’re just a little girl. Stop your nonsense if you know nothing about this.”

Yasmine looked disappointed. She said, “Cassie, everyone in this family is happy to see you. I know you have your own ideas. Jessica and I don’t want to push you but you shouldn’t have said those harsh words to your grandpa. Did you ever think about what would happen if he couldn’t take it? What if he will never wake up?
“We don’t blame you for saying those things to him. But what are you doing now? You want him to die in the operating room? No matter how much you hate us, you shouldn’t have said this kind of thing!”
Cassandra opened her mouth but she didn’t know how to explain it. But if they really agreed to surgery, Maximilian would be killed.
Cassandra said, “Mrs. Yates, I’ll be responsible for whatever I do. Give me half an hour and Maximilian will wake up. If he doesn’t wake up, you can do whatever to me.”
Cassandra wanted to make amends so she made a promise.
Kayden was displeased. He said, “You don’t know any medical skills. How can you make Grandpa wake up in half an hour?”
Even though Kenneth was present, Kayden had to say this. If Maximilian hadn’t passed out, Kayden could have put up with everything. But now, Maximilian was unconscious because of Cassandra. He couldn’t control himself
The doctor said, “If you waste more time here, I can guarantee you that Maximilian won’t make it to the hospital.
Kayden said, “You…”
Kenneth interrupted him and said, “Kayden, you have to trust Cass. She won’t put Maximilian in danger.
Kayden turned to Kenneth in disbelief. He thought, ‘Why is he defending her? Isn’t she just a student? No matter how brilliant she is, or how good a hacker she is, she shouldn’t push her luck in a field that she knows nothing about!
Kayden said, “Ken, you…”
Kenneth said, “Did I ever lie to you?”
Kayden was stunned and thought, “Yeah. Mr. Zelinski never lies to me. If he thinks she can do it, she will make it‘
The doctor was about to contradict Cassandra and even wanted to make a bigger bet. But Cassandra didn’t give him a chance. She said, “I know you don’t believe me. It doesn’t matter. You have Whitecrane Hall’s number, right? You know how to reach Hugo, right? You can ask him.”
Cassandra passed everyone and went straight to Maximilian. She gave him a careful examination and then took out a bag of silver needles from–her bag.
Jessica said cautiously, “I have Hugo’s phone number. When we talked about a cooperation project, we left each other our numbers.”

Yasmine was a little worried. “Call him.”
Jessica took out her phone, found Hugo’s number, and dialed it
After a while, Jessica heard a voice. “Hello.”
It was Hugo’s voice.
Jessica said, “Hello, Mr. Gardner, I’m Jeffrey. We were once business partners.”
Hugo said, “Mrs. Yates, what can I do for you?”
Jessica said, “Well, the thing is, an old man… ”
Jessica told Hugo everything, including that Cassandra offered to rescue Maximilian. Hugo asked, “Is this girl named Cassandra?”
Jessica said, “Yes, is there a problem?”
Hugo said. “Yes.”
The
doctor, who was beside Jessica, raised his eyebrow proudly. He thought he was right and Cassandra was just blufling.
Hugo continued, “Usually, it must be at a critical moment if she decides to treat someone. However, she
never failed to save anyone. If she promised that Maximilian would wake up in half an hour, he will. Don’t worry.”
Jessica hung up the phone in confusion. Kayden didn’t understand what Hugo meant. He wondered. what was going on.
He turned to Kenneth and asked, “Ken, what’s going on?”
Kenneth said calmly, “I guess Cass is the person who cured you.”
Kayden thought it was unbelievable. He said, “Isn’t it Dr. Quirke who cured me?”
He turned to Maximilian’s bedroom and then his expression suddenly changed again.
He thought, ‘Is Cassandra Dr. Quirke?
“But she’s so young!
‘How can it be possible?‘
When they still looked shocked, Cassandra finished the acupuncture treatment. Yasmine and Jessica couldn’t wait to walk into the room.
When they looked at Cassandra again, the way they looked at her was complicated.
Half an hour later, Maximilian grunted and opened his eyes slowly.
Immediately, Cassandra left with Kenneth.

There was a long silence in the car. Cassandra spoke first, “You knew I was Dr. Quirke a long time ago, right?”
Kenneth directly admitted it. “Not really. I guessed it based on how you talked a few days ago.”
No one would automatically think like the way Faye thought things and talk about the details of how Faye did things.
There was only one possibility: Cassandra was Faye.
Cassandra smiled and said nothing. Kenneth suddenly asked, “Why didn’t you talk with Maximilian before you left there?”
Cassandra said, “There was no need to do that. He’s fine. That’s the only thing that matters. I will give you a prescription later. Give it to him and ask him to buy the medicines at Whitecrane Hall. There are two kinds of them that are only available there. She thought, That family doesn’t belong to me after all. It is better to stay away from them.”
Kenneth asked, “Why don’t you give it to him yourself?”
Cassandra said, “Will it make a difference?”
