Chapter 178 The Same Surname
Angela might be ruthless, but Sarah wasn’t bothered by this. Sarah wasn’t a noble or righteous person in particular. As long as Angela could heal her father and stabilize his condition, nothing else mattered to Sarah. Her father’s health had visibly improved in the past few days, and with Joseph also involved in the treatment, Sarah had double the security in their treatment.
Angela’s gaze swept past Samuel as she ignored him and went straight to Sarah. “Sarah, did you buy the medicine I asked for yesterday?”
Sarah’s gaze remained on the ground as she blinked a few times before nodding. “I’ve purchased everything according to your list.”
Angela relaxed and casually sat down before tilting her head to look at Samuel. “Why don’t you leave? You’re not needed here. At her words, Sarah also glanced at Samuel with a serious expression on her face. “Maybe you should excuse yourself, Mr. Kins.” It’s odd that they both share the same surname, Sarah thought to herself.
At this juncture, Samuel frowned at Sarah. “What’s your issue?” he uttered with a hint of dissatisfaction. “Did everything I mentioned earlier mean nothing to you? Angela lacks the required knowledge in medicine as she’s merely an undergraduate student. Why utilize her when you have Joseph, who’s much more well–known as a good doctor? You’re toying with your father’s life.” Is Sarah just a pretty face without any brains? I can’t believe she listened to Angela and tried to chase me out.
Samuel was still irate as he pointed a finger at himself. “You’re attempting to oust me. Do you know who you’re chasing out here? I am Joseph’s brother! It should be Angela who leaves!” he shouted. Sarah’s long lashes trembled. He’s Joseph’s brother, and he’s also that person’s brother… Hill that person be angry if I chase Samuel off?
Sarah furrowed her delicate eyebrows as she contemplated this matter. However, her father’s life mattered more than anything else. So Sarah bit her lip, nodded,firmly, and reiterated in a stern tone. “You’re not a doctor, so you should leave, Mr. Kins. We don’t require you here.”
Angela raised her gaze and glanced around at Sarah. That’s nice. The campus beauty has enough sense to be able to decide who’s good or bad for her. So, Angela propped up her chin as a hint of pleasure surfaced in her eyes. “The patient’s family all assented, so why does it matter if you
do?” don’t? Are you just some busybody who’s trying to tell others what to
Upon hearing Angela’s words, Samuel was on the verge of exploding. His temper flared up, and he shouted angrily at Angela. “You’re simply deceiving and causing trouble intentionally. How dare you affect Joseph’s job! Do you think I am unaware that you’re deliberately causing trouble to retaliate against us?! What kind of evil person are you. Angela? How could you be

so malevolent!”
Angela smirked, “Yelling and screaming in the ward, impeding the treatment of patients…
the malevolent one here? As for your retaliation. That sounds like a joke to me. You’re not worthy of my time and emotions, and I’m not about to engage in your revenge schemes.”
The anger on Samuel’s face intensified as Angela’s words landed. He was about to explode as he pointed angrily at her. “Angela, you—”
Suddenly, the medical equipment next to the hospital bed emitted a loud beeping sound. Angela turned her eyes and saw Zayn, who was lying quietly on the hospital bed, convulsing violently and foaming at the mouth. Her pupils shrank when she realized… His condition
teorsened!
Angela rushed over in a brisk step. Sarah’s face turned pale. She was the first to press the call button at the head of the bed. After that, she quickly pressed on Zayn’s upper body with force. She was also a medical student. Why did this situation occur? She couldn’t determine the specific reason for a moment–all she had was a clear understanding of the basic theoretical knowledge.
The first thing to do was to stabilize her father while trying not to injure him. She didn’t want. to aggravate his condition. Angela quickly retrieved a silver needle pack and reached out to puncture a point on his temple. Samuel, on the other hand, was taken aback–he had no idea what was going on. Is Angela still trying to act tough at a time like this?Is she trying to murder this
man…?
Without further hesitation, Samuel suddenly reached out and grabbed Angela’s hand. “Stop. Angela. Joseph will be here soon. Let him handle this.” Angela halted her actions and locked eyes with Samuel then. A surge of emotions rushed through her at that point.
Just as she was about to use the needle to pierce the acupuncture point on Samuel’s hand, the door to the ward swung open. Oliver, who had sensed that something was amiss, rushed into the room and restrained Samuel. With his swift and precise movements, Oliver rendered Samuel powerless, causing Samuel’s face to darken.
“Oliver, take him out and make sure he doesn’t cause any trouble.” After giving instructions to Oliver, Angela resumed her treatment, her expression cold and serious. Oliver escorted Samuel out. Around the corner of the stairs, Joseph and two doctors hurried towards them. Upon seeing Samuel being escorted out, a look of annoyance flickered in Joseph’s eyes. After a moment of contemplation, he pieced together the situation inside the ward.
As Joseph entered the room, he saw Angela inserting a silver needle into the patient’s temple. He furrowed his brow slightly. Before he or his colleagues could approach Angela, the patient, Zayn, became eerily still. Simultaneously, the loud noises from the medical.

instruments ceased.
Angela had a thin layer of sweat on her forehead as she anxiously checked Zayn’s pulse. Although his pulse was slightly uneven, it was gradually stabilizing. Sarah gradually released her grip on Zayn’s hand as she fixed her gaze on Angela. “Miss Kins, how is my father?”
“The situation is stable now,” Angela replied as she released Zayn’s hand and exhaled in relief. Joseph approached the bed. “Step aside, Angela. Let me examine him again.”
“There’s no need for further examination. The sudden deterioration was mainly due to external triggers,” Angela replied as she gazed up at Joseph. Joseph’s gaze darkened for a moment, but he put on a look of confusion as he questioned her. “What external triggers could have caused this?”
In that moment, Angela felt the urge to respond sarcastically. Joseph probably reached just in time to see Samuel outside the room. How did Samuel manage to find Sarah’s ward, and how did he know that I’m involved in Zayn’s case? Is Joseph, who’s always so composed and amiable, truly unaware of everything?
Angela pursed her lips/ She was preparing to speak when Sarah interjected, “Miss Kins, is Dr. Kins you and Samuel’s brother? And is James your eldest brother?” The chaos of the situation earlier prevented Sarah from asking what she had been wondering about.
Angela nodded stoically, although she was slightly puzzled by how Sarah knew James. “That was the case before, but not anymore,” Angela replied slowly as she cast a glance towards the door. “I have been adopted by Donald, so technically, James is now my… cousin,” Angela replied in an icy tone.
