Angela raised her eyebrows and glanced at Louis simultaneously with Alex.
Louis‘ dark eyes were profound. His expression was clear and cold, tinged with a hint of arrogance. “I’m right here, you know? Yet you asked for her help instead. Do you doubt my skills?”
Alex scratched his head. “I-”
“What, what? Let’s grab a drink tonight and bring me all your previous reports.”
After his words, Louis turned to Angela. His rugged face sported a faint smile, but his tone was quite provocative. “What do you say, Angie?”
“I’m thrilled. Also… Angela forced a polite smile. “I’ve told you before. Don’t call me Angie, please.
Louis‘ expression immediately darkened.
Slamming the book on the table, he tried to make amends. “A slip of the tongue, Angela.”
With that, he stood up and left without looking back, although it was still class time.
Alex was already used to Louis‘ temper. He smiled at Angela. “Angela, don’t mind him. He’s just being his usual crazy self.”
Then he went to talk to Louis.
Angela paid no attention to their conversation. After all, Louis and Alex were both men, so they could communicate more easily.
After the morning class ended, Angela settled her lunch in the cafeteria, but now she was holding a lunch box in the sick bay, taking care of Cassie.
Cassie was wearing a black down jacket on the outside, with a basketball jersey underneath in the same color scheme. Her pants were pulled up high, revealing a red and swollen ankle with a hint of bruising.
Angela glanced over. “From basketball?”
After a nod, Cassie replied while eating, “Yeah, that kid on the other team was playing dirty,

fouling me! He deliberately bumped into me. It got me so mad. Next time I see him, I’m going to confront him and give him a piece of my mind. Let him know that I’m not a pushover!”
The more she spoke, the angrier she became. With one last big gulp, she finished her meal.
After a while, the young school doctor, Tobias Stewart, who had also finished eating, approached. Seeing Angela, he was first surprised, then smiled. “What ailment can’t you handle that you had to come to me?”
Although he said that, he still sat down and lifted Cassie’s leg. After a few glances, he pressed on it a few times, causing Cassie to grimace in pain.
“Sir, can you be gentler? Are you trying to break my foot?” Cassie gasped, wincing in pain.
She looked quite pitiful.
Tobias glared at her. “You have the nerve to complain? Who did you fight with to end up like this? The school might give you a serious warning. If your sister finds
out, you’ll be in big
trouble.”
Cassie felt wronged and swore by the heavens that it wasn’t her fault.
It was someone else playing dirty in the game, targeting her.
Tobias frowned even deeper when he heard this. “Cassie, you’re a girl. If you want to play basketball, play with girls. Why did you play with the boys? That’s not really nice.”
After speaking, he realized Angela was present, so he asked her, “You’re Professor Terence’s disciple. You don’t need me to prescribe medication for this minor injury, right? You can handle it yourself.”
With that, he hummed a tune, turned on the radio, and went about his business.
Cassie was taken aback. “Hey, you’re the doctor. How can you say that? Where’s your professionalism?”
“Hey, appreciate my good intentions. Angela is much more skilled than me in medicine. Isn’t it better to let her treat you? Once she starts seeing patients, you might not even be able to get an appointment.”
Angela glanced past him. After a sigh, she lowered her head again and turned to Cassie’s ankle. “It’s a bone injury. You should go to the hospital. The medicine here is incomplete. Take a medical
report and
go to your counselor for leave. You need to rest well for at least
half a month.”

She had already examined Cassie as soon as she arrived.

Cassic’s eyes widened. “Half a month? It’s that serious? Once I’m better, watch me beat that guy to a pulp!”
“Cassie, if you talk so rudely again, I’ll tell your sister.” Tobias chuckled ominously.
Cassie pursed her lips and didn’t say anything.
Angela pondered. Cassie is an only child, so the person he’s referring to should be her cousin,
Cassandra.
Angela took Cassie to the hospital and had an X–ray taken.
The result was a minor bone fracture. She needed to restrict her activities and rest, similar to the diagnosis made by Angela.
The orthopedic doctor prescribed some medication, which Angela checked and found to be average medication.
Angela decided to bring some homemade pills to school the next day for Cassie to help her recover faster.
Angela asked Cassie to wait on the bench while she went upstairs to the pharmacy.
Just as she took a few steps around the corner, she almost collided with someone who suddenly rushed out.
Upon closer inspection, it was Yusof.
Yusof also saw her and exclaimed, “What the heck? Angela, what are you doing here?”
Before Angela could respond, she heard Cassie’s voice from behind.
“Yusof.”
Cassie pressed her lips together. Seeing Yusof sweat profusely and carrying medicine and a lunch box, she immediately understood.
She had heard earlier that Sarah’s father was ill, and Yusof had been busy running around.
So, it’s this hospital.
Yusof looked at Cassie with a frown as he saw her in a cast. “What happened to you?”

Feeling cared for, Cassie snorted and briefly explained the reason.

“I told you not to play so aggressively. You almost bumped into me before-”
Yusof was about to retort but seemed to remember something and quickly walked away. “I’m sorry. Sarah hasn’t eaten breakfast. I need to hurry and take it to her.”
Angela glanced at the medicine box he was carrying.
One of the boxes contained Vitaline Forte Capsules, which were usually used for serious heart conditions.
Just as she was lost in thought, Cassie came to her side and said, “I’m so annoyed. Yusof is really a lapdog among the lapdogs. Sarah didn’t even show up on his birthday. I heard she was with her boyfriend, which no one had ever seen before.
“He was heartbroken all night. I tried to persuade him for half the night and ended up throwing up all night. It hasn’t been long, and he’s already here to help her.”
Angela didn’t know much about Sarah, only that she was the campus beauty of the medical. department. She was usually quite low–key.
Recently, her father had a sudden heart attack and almost didn’t make it through the rescue. The family’s company also faced a crisis, so she hadn’t been to school during this time.
Angela looked at Cassie and noticed a hint of bitterness in her eyes. She patted her on the back and said, “Let’s go. The pharmacy is upstairs. Let’s take the elevator together.”
Cassie glanced back and saw that Yusof was long gone. She frowned and walked away.
After getting the medicine, Cassie also took a leave of absence from school. Angela sent her off in a cab and then returned to Springgate Estates.
As soon as she entered, she saw Jonathan in the yard. Despite the cold weather, he was dressed very lightly.
After admiring him for a few seconds, Angela suddenly froze. Jonathan actually stood up!
