Chapter 180
When she gained her freedom, Ophelia was already dazed and fuzzy, having melted into a soft bundle against the man’s strong and broad chest.
Feeling the sting from the small wound on her lips, she looked up with a sense of grievance and said, “You bullied me.”
The man’s fingers brushed against her lips, his gaze deep and his voice. husky, “Does it hurt?”
“Pain.”
“It was good that it hurt; it served as a reminder to remember better and not to lie to me again next time.”
Ophelia:
She opened her mouth, feeling so frustrated that she had nothing to say.
Is lying referring to those few sentences of admitting mistakes? But if she didn’t admit her mistakes and had stood her ground against him from the beginning, who knows how things would have turned out now!
She hummed twice and snuggled in his arms, saying, “Honey, let’s go home. I don’t want to stay in the hospital!”
Her foot just twisted a bit; it was not serious enough to require hospitalization, and the smell of the disinfectant in the hospital was really unpleasant!
Winford glanced at her feet and did not refuse, but at that moment, a bodyguard outside brought in a person who seemed to be the hospital director.

The dean saw Winford, and his eyes lit up. He respectfully and excitedly said, “Mr. Winford, there is a miraculous doctor-”
Before he finished speaking, Winford suddenly raised his hand and stopped him from saying the rest.
Ophelia was lying in his arms, listening intently, when she was suddenly pulled up.
He had his head rubbed and said, “Just wait patiently.”
Then they left the ward and walked away with the dean.
Ophelia strained to listen and vaguely heard two sentences, which seemed to suggest that there was a miraculous doctor on the dean’s side, a genius newcomer in the medical field, who had been recommended to Winford.
Winford probably didn’t want to discuss her illness in front of her, so he went outside.
Her heart suddenly tightened at the thought that Bryson’s poison would be cured in just two more treatments. At that time, she would be able to prove her strength to him, and Ophelia felt a bit more at ease.
She looked up and instructed the bodyguard, “Get me a wheelchair; I will wait for Mr. Winford in the car.”
She didn’t want to smell the disinfectant for even a second, and Winford didn’t know how long he would be talking to the dean, so she decided to go out and wait for him.
The bodyguard obeyed the order and quickly brought over a wheelchair.
Ophelia sat down and turned the wheelchair to move outside by herself.
When they reached the door, suddenly, a person rushed up and cried out loudly-

“Madam, I begged you to spare my family’s Elva!!”
Ophelia controlled the wheelchair and quickly dodged backward. When she looked up, she was surprised to see Bertha!
Before she could react, Bertha “thudded” to the ground and knelt down in front of her at the bustling hospital entrance!
In an instant, the people around looked over.
Ophelia’s eyes turned cold, “Pull her up!”
With Bertha’s temperament, was she someone who could easily make others submit and kneel before her?
Still in front of so many people!
I’m afraid it was intentional!
The bodyguard immediately obeyed the order.
But Bertha was strong; as soon as the bodyguard touched her, she struggled with all her might.
Her identity was different from that of an ordinary maid, and the bodyguard did not dare to be too forceful, fearing that he might hurt her. Bertha immediately broke free and then knelt down again!
“Madam, I beg you to spare Elva, to spare us!” she cried out loudly, dressed simply, like a pitiful person under pressure.
The people around stopped, and more and more people gathered around.
“What happened? What was going on?”
“Oh dear! Why is this auntie kneeling on the ground for no reason?”

As soon as Ophelia looked at the scene, she was certain that Bertha had indeed done it on purpose!
The other party wanted to coerce her with public opinion!
At that moment, she instead became calm, coldly tugging at her lips and leaning back relaxedly. “Let you go? What did I do?”
Bertha cried pitifully, “My daughter Elva is going to be expelled! She is also going to be kicked out of Sunset Vista! She worked so hard to get into Ventura University. Madam, you can’t ruin my daughter’s future just because of your own little unhappiness!”
Elva was going to be kicked out of Sunset Vista and expelled from Ventura University?
She looked at the bodyguard beside her.
The bodyguard leaned in and whispered, “It was indeed Mr. Winford’s order to expel him from Sunset Vista, while the decision to withdraw from Ventura University should have come from Ventura University.”
