Stuck in you

When the surgery was done, the nurse went out of the operating room to inform the family members of the patient.

Rachel was still inside the operating room since she had just finished suturing, so she was a little frightened when the family members suddenly rushed inside.

A middle-aged woman hugged her tightly and burst into tears. Rachel was in a cold sweat during the surgery so she felt a bit embarrassed.

Actually, the woman just wanted to thank Rachel. She heaved a sigh of relief as her stiff body started to relax.

Rachel comforted the woman in a low and soft voice. She also smiled to the girl who had been standing beside her.

A few moments later, Rachel found out that the man that she had operated was suffering from depression. He jumped off the building which caused him to be severely injured. Fortunately, he was out of danger now.

While having their lunch, the doctors couldn't help discussing the topic. "Why are there so many people jumping off buildings this month?" asked a doctor.

Upon hearing the question, Rachel paused for a short while. But then, she didn't say anything and just continued eating.

The conversation didn't just end there. "By the way, do you remember that girl named Wendy who was sent here a few days ago? Does anyone of you know her story?" a nurse said.

"I know who she is," said a nurse who was sitting in the corner. She lowered down her voice on purpose.

Rachel was just listening to them quietly. Ninwell City wasn't that big so the news could spread rapidly. And when it came to political matters, any news would definitely become sensational. The Wen family was one of the most famous families in the city and everyone knew them.

When the Wen family was in trouble not long ago, the media started to make a big fuss over it. They not only revealed the reason why Cole was taken by the Committee of Discipline Inspection, but they also dug into the relationship between Francis and Wendy. They even divulged the grudge between their families.

Everyone knew who was behind all those news.

Rachel hadn't paid much attention to those news so she wasn't well-informed and not very much updated. However, a few people around her were discussing it fiercely.

Naturally, women loved gossip. And since one of the main characters on the news had died in their hospital, gossiping about it had become more normal.

After all, this issue was also all over the social media.

When Wendy's name was mentioned, Rachel almost choked. The food in her mouth suddenly became difficult to swallow. Wendy's tearful eyes flashed into her mind.

Rachel lost her appetite so she decided to stop eating. When she was about to stand up, the doctor sitting next to her stopped her.

Then they quickly changed the topic from Wendy to Mendes.

It was very easy for women to switch topics whenever one of them became uncomfortable. As long as the topic wasn't too sensitive, discussing about it wasn't a big deal.

Actually, they all knew why Lucas was taking care of Mendes.
