The Billionaire Ex-Wife Stormed Back as a Marvelous Divine Doctor
Chapter 297 - 296

Chapter 297: Chapter 296

Ivy River finished everything, took out an alcohol wipe from her pocket to clean her hands, then glanced at the patient’s family member.

"During the surgery, I also dealt with your father’s complications, so he won’t have to worry about sleepless nights due to kidney stones anymore. Also, I think there’s something important you should know."

The family member suddenly became anxious, "What is it, doctor? Is it about money? I can pay, no matter how much it takes to save my father’s life."

"Spend more time with the old man. You’re his only child, so all his energy is focused on you. Your clothes are very tasteful from head to toe, but what about your father? How many years has it been since he bought any clothes?"

Ivy River continued, "I understand young people are busy, but no matter how busy, you still have holidays, right? He’s willing to never remarry for your sake, can’t you make time to visit him more often?"

The family member was silent for a moment, "I... my father was against me going abroad before, he just wanted me to stay at home with him, and then I lost the family savings, so I couldn’t face him."

"That’s something you need to reflect on. Your father’s severe illness is a heartache, and heartaches need heart remedies—you understand that, right?"

The family member nodded, "Doctor River, I know."

"You are his medicine. Don’t just give him money and think it’s enough. He would rather go out scavenging than stay at home because the home lacks warmth, and out there, someone will at least chat with him."

"I... I didn’t know it was like this with my father, he never told me. I’m the one who’s wrong about this, I’ll change for sure."

The family member suddenly felt at a loss.

Ivy River checked the time and got up, "It’s about time."

Before leaving, she glanced at Cyrus Brown.

"Remember what you said. I’m always reasonable and I keep my promises."

Everyone watched Ivy River leave, then looked at him with sympathetic eyes.

Griffin King stepped forward and scolded, "Cyrus Brown, don’t say you know me when you go out after this, it’s disgraceful."

"Mmph mmph!" Cyrus Brown was so anxious he couldn’t speak.

"Lewis, broadcast the ward video here, lest someone misses it," Alexander Hodges said snappishly.

He was still pained about his clothes.

They really weren’t easy to tailor.

He had begged Eve for a long time, also wondering when Grace Foster would return to the country, so he could see if it could be fixed.

Lewis promptly moved forward to operate, "It’s done, Doctor River and the patient’s family are here, let me change your position so you don’t miss it."

As he was adjusting Cyrus Brown’s position.

The patient lying in bed moved his fingers slightly.

The family member was shocked, "Dad, are you waking up? It’s me, Honghong, open your eyes and see me!"

Ivy River directly pulled her aside, "Keep your voice down... He’ll fully awaken soon, just wait a moment."

Slowly, the patient on the bed opened his eyes.

Honghong immediately leaned in, tears streaming, "Dad, it’s me, do you still recognize me? I’m Honghong, your daughter."

Ivy River said bluntly, "Your dad doesn’t have a concussion or Alzheimer’s; he hasn’t reached the stage of senility yet. He knows who you are..."

Honghong was taken aback, looking at Ivy River’s eyes with a complex mix of emotions.

No.

She just wanted a moment of sentimentality, was it necessary to be like this?

The patient coughed a couple of times.

Ivy River immediately went up to check, "Old sir, are you fully awake?"

The patient nodded, rasping, "Th... Thank you."

These words were spoken with great difficulty.

Seeing this, Honghong rushed forward excitedly, "Dad? Finally, you’re awake, we were all so worried about you, I even thought you couldn’t recognize me anymore."

"Let him fully awaken first, I’ll give him a routine check-up. If everything’s fine, let him rest and regain energy before talking to you. Don’t get too worked up, okay?"

Ivy River coaxed her to the side like calming a child.

As she was about to start the routine check-up.

She seemed to remember something.

She looked directly at the camera, "Now it’s a routine check-up; if you’re worried, you can have another young nurse check, I’m pretty cautious myself, to avoid unnecessary entanglements later."

Outside the observation room, people felt speechless.

But they still sent a young nurse in.

The young nurse trembled nervously as she checked, "Doctor River, all the indicators are normal, is there anything else?"

"Nothing more, just be sure to report clearly when you leave. I didn’t meddle in anything here."

Ivy River gave her instructions.

The patient was puzzled and asked, "What’s going on?"

Honghong reluctantly explained what was happening outside, "Dad, don’t get agitated, I know you’re very emotional right now."

She hurried to comfort him.

The patient flared up, "What? I know my own body, after the surgery I felt way better, at least I’m not the sick shell I was! Who! Cough cough, who’s slandering you!"

His words ended, and he started gasping heavily.

Honghong immediately patted his back, "Dad, don’t be angry, you just had surgery, your body can’t handle it."

Ivy River said calmly, "Quickly go and report back, why are you standing here dumbfounded?"

After the young nurse left.

Ivy River walked up directly, "Old sir, you know, I pulled you back from death’s door, you mustn’t get angry, if something happens to your health again you’ll suffer."

"That’s right, dad, you need to listen, Doctor River’s words are like orders, do what she says."

The patient cast a glance, "Alright, don’t say that kind of thing here, cough cough..."

Ivy River immediately began her examination, "Don’t speak, let me take your pulse, why should you get angry, it’s not worth it to argue with lowlifes."

The patient wanted to say something but was silenced by a stern look from Ivy River.

After the examination.

"Your health is quite robust, good, after recovery, drink some herbal medicine to adjust, take less western medicine, as you age it’s best to drink more herbal medicine to replenish your qi and blood."

"I’ll listen to you, my life was saved by you, whatever you say goes."

Ivy River checked the ward, frowned slightly, then walked out.

Soon, she returned with Director Smith.

Honghong looked nervous, "Doctor, is something wrong with my dad?"

"No, it’s just about changing Jasper Jones’ bed, Doctor River got you a private ward, pack up and get ready to move?"

Honghong was very happy, "Thank you, Doctor River, thank you, Director Smith, we don’t have much to pack, we can go now!"

Ivy River couldn’t help but laugh seeing her like this.

"Alright, then let’s go; a young nurse will push you to your ward shortly, it’s in the Traditional Medicine Department, on the same floor as me. If there’s anything, you can go find Isabella Yeaton."

"Got it."

Jasper Jones called out as Ivy River was about to leave, "Doctor River, when can I get out of bed?"

"For now, just stay in bed. My assistant will notify you when you can get up."

"Then call that meddling doctor to my ward, I must ask what he was thinking!"

Jasper Jones got increasingly angry thinking about Cyrus Brown’s actions, "The more I think about it, the angrier I get. Your medical skills are so advanced, the fact I survived the surgery surely is proof enough? What an idiot!"

"You already know he’s an idiot, so why bother with him? I’ll get someone to record a video for you soon; right now, I need to go find that idiot, okay?"

"Alright, but I’d prefer seeing it live."
