Leanne was in the middle of a retinal examination on a patient and responded without lifting her head, "Her eyes have been fine for a while now. Don't fuss over her." “But she insists they're uncomfortable, feels like she's going blind, and wants you to check on her,” the nurse pleaded, exasperated by the diva's antics.

"Oh." That meant he had been to the Richardson family's gatherings, perhaps even their wedding. Chapter 97 A bit socially awkward, Leanne found it hard to make small talk with strangers beyond a few sentences. After her "Oh," she fell silent.

For sreason, the atmosphere felt oddly like a blind date setup.

Sitting on the bed, Selina rolled her eyes between them and sighed.

"Jeremy, didn't you bring a gift for Leanne?" Jeremy playfully tapped her on the back of her head and reached for a paper bag on the couch, handing it over. Leanne waved it off. "Our hospital has a policy against accepting gifts." "It's just a mug, nothing expensive." Jeremy opened the box to show her. "I passed a small town famous for its pottery on my trip, and Selina wanted a souvenir, so I got a few things." Indeed, it was just a mug with a beautiful crackle pattern at the bottom, which Leanne quite liked.

Trying to make it easier for her to accept, Jeremy suggested considerately, "Think of it as a gift from Selina." "Just take it," Selina interrupted.

Sandra had been in a foul mood for days, carrying a face as if the world owed her a fortune, making the office so quiet that people could hear a pin drop, except for the slamming of her folders. "What's there to be smug about?" Sandra sneered. "No one gives a damn about it!" Leanne didn't even glance at her. "I didn't plan on inviting you, so don't flatter yourself." Sandra was left speechless.
