Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied -
Chapter 299 Play Cards for Ice Cream
Christopher only spoke in a conversational volume. However, the coldness in his face made people shiver uncontrollably.
Josephine was dumbstruck on the spot. It was as if all the blood in her body seemed to have solidified, making her unable to move.
"Miss Bailey, what are you crying for? Did I hit you, or scold you? Don't act like we have bullied you." Christopher's voice rose by a few decibels subconsciously. Josephine was startled, "I..."
"Enough, Christopher, I'm sure justice exists in people's hearts. Don't think that tears can cover up what you have done."
When he heard Everleigh's words, he stopped reprimanding Josephine. Instead, he turned around and looked at everyone coldly, "Do you have anything else to ask?" "No... Not anymore."
"If that's the case, hurry up and leave. This is the doctor's office. If you delayed other people's treatment time, who would shoulder the responsibility?" He asked in an annoyed voice. The reporters looked at each other and immediately left like a swarm of bees.
They didn't want to stay any longer.
Although the young master of the Meyer Group was known for his reputation as a playboy, everyone knew that his temper was not good.
As Josephine looked at their backs as they were fleeing for their lives, the anger in her heart soared. If Christopher wasn't here, she would've seen it to the end with Everleigh. There were only the three of them in the office.
"Everleigh, you are truly lucky."
"To deal with you, one would only have to use their mouth. Josephine, you don't need to put on that act anymore. After all, your acting is just as bad as your character. It makes people feel disgusted." "You... Everleigh, don't be too proud. There will come a day when someone would punish you," Josephine fiercely cursed, but she prayed in her heart that this person would appear sooner or later. Everleigh didn't care. Some people always liked to say some meaningless words when they were exasperated and helpless. Only in this way could their anger be vented bit by bit. Christopher's eyes suddenly turned cold. When she walked over, he subconsciously reached out his foot and tripped her.
Josephine fell down directly in the corridor, and everyone in the corridor cast their eyes on her.
"Ah... Christopher."
"What are you yelling for? You should have looked where you were going. My foot had always been here. Why are you blaming me since you are the one stepping on it?" Christopher's voice was louder than hers. It was like they were competing with each other to see who could be the loudest.
Josephine's face was fierce. She quickly got up and ran out with big steps.
Everleigh had been watching coldly from the side. Looking at Christopher's indignant face, she asked, "Where has your gentlemanly demeanor gone?" "Then, where's your lady-like demeanor?"
"I fed it to the dog." The two people said that almost at the same time, and then they couldn't help laughing.
Such a tacit understanding could not be formed in just one or two days.
At this time, Josephine strode out. Because of her high heels, she almost sprained her ankle. She was so angry that she hit the wall of the hospital.
"D*mn it." She looked like a mentally ill person. No one could have guessed that she and Theodore had once almost gotten married.
She clenched her fists tightly and her scarlet eyes were filled with hatred.
She would definitely return the favor for the humiliation she had suffered.
Just as she was about to leave, she heard someone scolding angrily, "What about Dr. Trevino? The way I see it, she's just a quack. She doesn't even know how to cure diseases. She should just die." She froze as she listened to the curses that gradually went away with the person's lips.
By the time she came to her senses, the person was already gone.
A trace of jealousy appeared in her eyes, and a thought arose in her mind once again.
She just wanted something that could knock Everleigh down a peg. Since she couldn't use public opinion to achieve that, she might as well get someone else to do the job for her.

Josephine's thoughts grew more and more intense. In the end, she felt a rush of adrenaline in her head as she followed that person.
...
The busy day was over. Everleigh was so tired that she had forgotten the incident that happened in the morning.
Christopher couldn't even lift his arm after the operation. He leaned back against the chair and kept complaining, "What have I done? Why do I have to suffer like this? I am a rich man, yet I have to live such a difficult life." "We have chosen to sacrifice ourselves for others, to show our love to others." She was also very tired. She held the teacup with her trembling hands.
There was no other way but to drink it using a straw.
"Eat something. I have bought food for you." Stainley came in with two bags in his hands and placed them on their tables. He had been busy outside for the past few days and did not have much time.
"Stainley, do you mind feeding me?" Christopher asked.
"I don't mind," he said with a chuckle. He took out the burger he had bought and served it into his mouth.
Christopher was lying on a chair, with his long legs propped up. His face was gaunt, and he was weak when chewing.
Just as Stainley was about to hand Everleigh something to eat and she was about to reach out to take it, she heard a ring from the VIP ward.
She gave a wry smile and said, "I'll go and have a look."
"You take a rest. I'll go check it out." Stainley pressed her down, and put down the things in his hands. Then, he turned around and went out.
"Why don't you have a bite first? You and I have to be on duty tonight." Christopher's mouth was full.
She thought for a while and agreed that it would be best if she was full too.
In the evening, they had one more person on duty. During that time, Stainley had been accompanying the two of them. The three of them sat together and played some poker. Whoever lost would have to stick up a note on their face. Everleigh's face was covered with two notes.

Christopher was the most miserable as Stainley only had five notes on his face.
"Ace! Haha, I won." Christopher's savage voice rang out, and his laughter was like a ghost's.
"Hurry up and stick it, haha..."
Stainley and Everleigh looked at him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Isn't it just a win? You don't have to act like this."
"You are really invested in this."
"Of course, I've been tired for a whole day, thus I have to relieve some stress."
Christopher stuck a note to each of the two of them.
The nurses on duty at the door couldn't help laughing when they saw this scene. They felt that the hospital finally had a touch of humanity for the first time.
They had seen enough death everyday. More or less, they felt the same way. With such people by their side, it would be a little more interesting. "Dr. Trevino, you have to work hard."
"Okay, I will. If I win, I will buy you two ice cream," Everleigh smiled and replied, but when she turned her head, there was a serious look on her face.
Stainley and Christopher couldn't help laughing. This time, it seemed that she was going to take it seriously.
The lively atmosphere of the three people had infected a lot of people. As a result, some people who couldn't fall asleep, as well as the nurses on duty, all gathered around to watch them play. The atmosphere suddenly became lively. As a result, many people were pointing fingers around, and Christopher's cards were not bad, just as Everleigh had guessed.
"You did it on purpose, didn't you? All for the ice cream."
"Haha, you are right, Dr. Meyer. It's getting hot in here." The patient's family member couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Although Christopher was angry, there was still a happy smile in his eyes.
