Chapter 183 For Her
“A breakup gift?” Clutching the n*ecklace on her n*eck, Cora held back her tears and half-jokingly asked.
“Humph.”
Byron ignored her almost-provoking words and took out matching earrings and a bracelet from another velvet box, proceeding to dress her with meticulous care.

Cora couldn’t quite figure out what the man was up to with all the jewelry, so she could only watch silently.
While examining the bracelet on her wrist, she couldn’t help but ask, “Are the bracelet and that anklet made from the
same ruby?”
“Yes, and they are designed by the same designer.”
Finishing adorning her with the jewelry, Byron adjusted her long hair and appraised her. “Tsk, you look stunning with
these.”
Unsure if he was just flirting, Cora felt her cheeks involuntarily
flush.

She wanted to remove the earrings, saying, “Give these to your fiancée, I don’t want them.”

However, Byron caught her hand. “Rubies don’t fit her. These
won’t look good on her.”
Just as Cora was about to refute, he said, “This jewelry set is
unique, created by Mrs. Sheldon. Yesterday, I went to the West
Coast International Jewelry Show just to complete this set for
you.”
Cora froze for a moment.
He seemed to be indirectly explaining that the media’s report was inaccurate. He hadn’t attended the jewelry show with
Jane to select wedding jewelry but to get her a gift.
After some internal struggle, Cora said, “Thank you.”
“Rather than your appreciation, I hope you wear them.”
The red gemstones perfectly accentuated her beauty.
Moreover, he wanted to leave his exclusive mark on her through these items.
“I work at the hospital. It’s inconvenient to wear these.”
Women loved jewelry, but she often had to wear gloves and
could easily damage.
But Byron said, “What about the anklet? It won’t affect your work.”
Thus, from this day onwards, the anklet was always around
Cora’s ankle.
Near Christmas, most people started their holidays.
As a result, the emergency room was unusually crowded these days.
Some people suffered from acute gastroenteritis due to holiday indulgence, while others got involved in fights after
drinking or car accidents during outings…
In short, Cora and other medical staff in the emergency room
were incredibly busy.
Just as Cora finished examining a patient, a nurse rushed over to her. “Dr. Lane, there’s a patient in Room 808 in the Neurology Department requesting your attention.”
“Neurology? Alright, I’ll go over in a moment.”
Many patients were transferred from the emergency room to other departments.
Some patients still sought advice from Cora regarding their follow-up treatment after being transferred.
So Corn didn’t think much about it and quickly made her way to Room 808 in the Neurology Department.
But she didn’t expect to find Lydia in the ward.
Moreover, Lydia was put on a drip in a hospital gown.
She looked noticeably older without all the extravagant
clothing and accessories, with more wrinkles around her eyes.
“Is it Mrs. Lydia Hansen? What can I do for you?”
Cora promptly put on a professional facade and stood by Lydia’s bed. As a habit, she fl*pped through Lydia’s medical records nearby.
Upon seeing the records, Lydia was slightly taken aback. Lydia had suffered from a cerebral hemorrhage, arriving in a coma.
Fortunately, prompt treatment had saved her life, and she had regained some motor function.
But currently, she still required further treatment with medication to consolidate her recovery.

Despite her dangerous condition, Lydia hadn’t changed
her attitude. With her aged face and acerbic tone, she
sarcastically retorted, “Why do you ask knowingly, you bit h?”
