Chapter 322

Even though Sarah put on a pretty convincing show, Makayla wasn't buying it. You can always see

through the bull when you look someone in the eye. Makayla could feel Sarah's sucking up to her

brother, but she couldn't feel any genuine care towards her.

"He asked me to say thank you." Makayla said with a touch of annoyance, "But I don't wanna say it."

Sarah turned to Elisa, "Can you give us a minute? I wanna have a heart-to-heart with Makayla."

Elisa was torn, but right now Sarah was the Bourne family's savior, and she didn't dare to offend her.

Once she left, Sarah began, "Makayla, I don't get why you have beef with me. Did someone badmouth

me to you? I've been busting my ass every day researching treatment plans for you after I got back.

Why can't I get a single thank you?"

Makayla cut right to the chase, "I don't think you're the one who did the surgery."

Why else would she see Violette's face and hear Violette's voice in her mind before each surgery? If

she saw Sarah before each surgery, she wouldn't be questioning this.

She didn't have complicated thoughts; she believed what she saw and heard.

"You think? You're the patient here, and everything you just said, they're all in your head." Sarah

continued her brainwashing.

After all, she was intellectually challenged before, even though she was a bit better now, she was still

fresh off the operating table!

Sarah could manipulate her thoughts. Even if she was right, she can be deemed wrong, as eople would

believe the doctor, not the patient. That was why Sarah dared to lie to Elijah.

Since the real surgeon decided to remain anonymous, it meant they didn't need anything from Elijah.

And since they contacted her through the hospital staff twice, it meant they were okay with her

accepting this 'gift'!

Who would turn down a free lunch?

"You're a bad person!" Makayla's disdain for Sarah skyrocketed at her cocky attitude.

Even though Makayla wasn't as smart as others, she could still sense right from wrong. True kindness

didn't boast.

"You probably haven't seen a real bad person, that's why you're saying this. I know you're the woman

Elijah cares about the most, and I never thought of hurting you. I can stay by Elijah's side with you, but

why can't you accept me?"

Sarah's last sentence, although sounding rhetorical, was her voicing her grievance.

"Get lost!" Makayla's voice suddenly escalated, her emotions flaring.

Elisa, hearing her shout from outside, immediately rushed in.

"Makayla, what's wrong?"

Sarah calmly said, "Elisa, don't worry. The more agitated she is, the better it is. It means her self-

awareness is significantly improving, which is a good sign that the surgery was successful."

Elisa was taken aback for a moment, but quickly nodded, "Dr. Sarah, I can't thank you enough!"

"No need to thank me. It's not good for her recovery to be like this. I'll prescribe some sedatives. Make

sure she takes them."

"Okay."

Silverleaf Ridge.

Violette got home, and the two kids showed varying degrees of anxiety when they saw her.

They didn't go to school today, mom won't be mad, right?

"Mom! Phone!" Rita picked up her phone and handed it to her like a gift, her eyes twinkling, "Mom,

someone called you! Guess who!"

Ian: "Mom, I blocked him."

Violette immediately checked her phone, opened the block list and saw Elijah's name. She frowned

slightly, debating whether to unblock him.

Mike leaned over and teased, "He's already got another woman, what's there to hold onto? If I were

you, I would have cut ties with him ages ago!"

Violette looked up at him, "Who was the one crying every day for a year after breaking up with their ex?

Who was it?"

Mike blushed instantly, quickly changing the subject, "Violette, you should go to sleep! I'll take the kids

out so we won't disturb your rest."

After Mike left with the kids, she took a deep breath and decided to keep Elijah on the block list!

After today, his relationship with Sarah would definitely got closer, maybe they'll even get married soon!

There was no need for her to contact him anymore.

Holding her phone, she headed to her bedroom.

The Bourne family, master bedroom.
