Chapter 77
Half an hour later.
“Hale,” Cathy walked out of the examination room.
She lowered her head slightly, allowing her long hair to fall, and used her slender fingers to gently hook.
“How was it?” Hale hurriedly approached, looking anxious.
“This… ask the doctor, Cathy turned back and looked at the doctor.
“Don’t worry, everything is normal,” the doctor said.
Hale’s tense eyes suddenly relaxed.
Confusion slowly surfaced in his mind.
“Normal?”
“Yes, normal. Let’s go quickly,” Cathy pulled Hale and said urgently, as if she wanted to leave immediately.
Hale didn’t say anything, his hand hanging down.
His fingers fell, trying to grasp something, but caught nothing.
So, was it not Cathy who donated the corneas back then?
Then who could it be?
Cath…
Ethel…
He silently repeated these names.
“Hale, I’ll go to the restroom, wait for me here for a moment,” Cathy pushed him when she saw he hadn’t moved.
Hale was lost in thought and just n
made a vague
amic sound
in
response.
When Cathy entered the restroom, he delved deeper into this issue.
The next moment, he took out his phone and dialed the number of Evercrest Town Hospital’s ophthalmology department.
Hospital’s ophthalm
After the call connected, he urged impatiently, “I want to speak to Dr. Cooper.”
“Who are you? What’s your matter willi Dr. Cooper?” the other end asked.
“Hurry!” he was very impatient.
The staff on the other end was intimidated by his tone and didn’t dare to hesitate. They quickly went to find Dr. Cooper.
Dr. Cooper had just finished examining a patient and was scribbling notes onto a clipboard. As she walked towards the call. she peeled off her disposable gloves, the sound of rustling plastic echoing through the hallway.

Impatiently, he said, “Can’t you see I’m busy?”
The staff who answered the call looked apologetic, “The other person seems to be very anxious, it’s probably something Important.”
Only then did Dr. Cooper pick up the phone, “Who is this?”
“It’s me, Hale.” Hale spoke crisply, “Dr. Cooper, can you tell me more about this girl named Cath?”
“Cath?” Dr. Cooper was caught off guard by his question and was silent for a while before responding. “This girl’s vision is so poor, yet you gave her five diopters of correction. This won’t happen. If the patient raises the issue, it could be considered a medical accident.”
“This was the patient’s wish, and she insisted on it. What can I do?” Hale replied.
“Which patient is this crazy? If she didn’t want others to know about her poor vision, she shouldn’t have come for an examination.”
“Ah, it’s just that… she’s a big star, Cath… Ah, maybe she’s afraid of unnecessary trouble from her fans, let’s not worry about it
too much.”
As Hale was waiting for Dr. Cooper’s response, he suddenly heard this snippet of conversation.
He immediately turned his head and saw a doctor in a white coat and a nurse hurriedly walking away.
Although the doctor didn’t reveal much, the words “big star” and ”
“Cath” v
were clear in
to him!
With his head buzzing, he quickened his pace and rushed forward.
In one swift motion, he reached out and grabbed the male doctor’s shoulder, forcing him to turn around.
“Mr. Thorne?” The male doctor was startled when he saw Hale.
Hale comes here every year
ar for an eye examination, and he recognized him.
“How is Cathy’s vision?” Hale dragged him in front of him and asked abruptly.
Because he was
e was too a anxious, his eyes looked sharp and fierce.
The doctor was frightened by his demeanor and couldn’t speak for a while.
“Speak politely,” the nurse advised softly.
Hale finally released his grip on the doctor’s shoulder, “Give me the real results!”
The doctor rubbed his sore shoulder and felt that he couldn’t lift his arm.
This man looked thin and fair, but his grip was unexpectedly strong.
Hearing that Hale wanted the results, he hesitated. Tm sorry, unless the patient agrees, the results cannot be disclosed.”
“If she’s with me, and you won’t tell me, I’ll take her in for another examination Hale said sternly.
He didn’t say anything else, but the doctor’s legs trembled.
“Okay.” Finally, the doctor sighed and handed over the report.

Hale quickly lowered his head and began to look through the results, but the more he looked, the tighter his pupils became.
His heart was fiercely convulsing!
Because he was so focused on reading, he didn’t hear Dr. Cooper’s words over the phone, “I don’t know the girl’s full name, but
her father is a famous shoemaker around here…”
Cathy slowly walked out, pretending to be completely nonchalant.

“What’s wrong?” Cathy knew what he was thinking and deliberately asked.
However, Hale firmly grasped her shoulder and said coldly. “Do you find lying fun?”
“Huh?” Cathy completely didn’t expect such a reaction from him and felt her mind go blank! Her legs trembled.
Hale had exposed her lie….
How could this happen?
At this m
moment, Cathy was thinking more about: It’s over!
She had worked tirelessly to earn Hale’s forgiveness and a promise to pursue a relationship with her. But now, as a result of this incident, she was back to square one..
No, it might be even worse!
Four years ago, she had hurt him deeply, and now, pretending to be the one who donated the corneas, Hale would hate her! He would go find that girl!

And that girl happened to have feelings for him………
Although Linda had told her that there was no useful information left by the other party, Cathy knew that there was nothing.
Hale couldn’t achieve when he set his mind to it!
A profound sense of despair overwhelmed her, and tears flowed from her eyes. She no longer cared about her image; she cried.
Then, her trembling arms suddenly tightened!
Someone had grabbed her.
Very tightly, extremely tight.
That person pressed her into his embrace and hugged her tightly!
The force was so strong that s she could hardly breathe.

In the midst of this suffocating feeling, she heard Hale’s rapid and painful breathing.
And his words: “Even if I’m blind for the rest of my life, I don’t w bear it!”

“Huh?”
Cathy covered her lips silently.
Could it be…
Hale was still holding Cathy, tears falling into her neckline and landing on her neck. “Even if I’m blind, I don’t want you to do this, Cathy, I really don’t want you to do this.”
Those tears were scorching hot.
Cathy had never seen him so emotional.
Even when she revealed such a scandal four
d four years ago, and Ethel forced a marriage, he had never shown this kind of impulse.
At most, he would silently clench his fists.
But this time, he cried.
Cathy had been acting, but at this moment, she was drawn into the drama by him, and tears filled her eyes.
In her heart, she felt fortunate. “It’s good, it’s good.”
Fortunately, she didn’t directly make the doctor say there was a problem with her eyes but used that method instead.
Fortunately, Hale hadn’t found out.
With this favor, she could once again rise to prominence and become the woman on Hale’s mind.
The two were wrapped up in a tight embrace, their bodies intertwined, when a jarring voice abruptly interrupted them…..
