My Beautiful Boss novel Chapter 285

Peter decided to spare him because of Angelou's request.

He immediately took Angelou away from the club after he warned Roy never to bother her anymore and after making him transfer three hundred thousand dollars to her account to compensate for all the damage he has caused.

Roy and his cousin, Allen, sighed in relief when Peter left.

"Peter, thank you so much. I really don't know what I could have done without you," Angelou told Peter gratefully.

"It's nothing. It's partly my fault, anyway. Let's go see your mom. Which hospital is she in, by the way?" Peter said.

"Oh, yes. She's in the First People's Hospital," Angelou replied.

Peter and Angelou arrived an hour later.

Peter found himself a little speechless when he saw the huge signage across the building. 'I feel like I have been to this place a little too often. What's wrong with me?' he thought.

Memories inside this building were not exactly pleasant ones either, but he had no choice. He had to come in because Angelou's mother broke her leg and was inside. He was determined to help heal her leg if the doctors could not.

According to an old Chinese saying, one must help others for as much as they can and let Buddha take care of the rest. This was something important to Peter. The fact that he was somehow involved meant that he was fully responsible.

As it was no longer Peter's first time in the hospital, he knew his way very well to the inpatient department.

It didn't take much time for them to find where Angelou's mother was.

"Mom!" Angelou cried, unable to hold back the tears when she saw her. She then walked towards her hurriedly.

"Angelou," said her mother. She was also very happy to see her daughter.

"Mom, I'm so sorry I involved you in this trouble. I am such a terrible daughter. But don't worry. I have money. I will have you cured no matter what it takes," Angelou promised as she cried bitterly. Her eyes were full of guilt and sadness.

"Daughter," her mother started. "Dry your tears. The doctors said it was hopeless. My leg cannot be cured anymore. They have to cut it off," she said, trying hard to hold back the tears.

"What? You mean an amputation?" Angelou was stunned and devastated.

That was unacceptable. If her mother were to be amputated, she'd have to spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair!

"Yes. They said that my leg is too badly injured. The bones were broken too severely and it was already impossible to cure. So, they said that the amputation was the best thing they could do," explained her mother.

She was just in her fifties and she still had a long life ahead of her. She did her best not to think about how she would do that in a wheelchair.

After hearing that, Peter frowned and come up to them. "Don't worry, Auntie. They won't cut your leg. I'll cure it. Also, I'm very sorry. It's partly my fault," Peter said.

Then, they heard someone snort.

Peter had not even finished speaking yet when they heard this rude, unruly wordless remark in the background.

Annoyed, Peter looked at the direction from where the sound came from. There, he saw a nurse in her forties giggling.

"What are you laughing at?" Peter said with anger. He was not so angry about her doubt. Rather, he was angry about her attitude.

It was so rude for a nurse to laugh at a moment when patients were having an emotional moment.

"I'm laughing at your ignorance," the nurse replied, unafraid of Peter. "You must have watched too many TV shows. Why would there be many disabled people if it were that easy to reattach a leg?"

'Fuck it, '

Peter thought. He had enough. This was not just impolite, it was downright improper. Nurses should not say those things.

'What is up with the doctors and nurses of the First People's Hospital? Why do they all behave like this?' Peter wondered.

'This is a very prestigious hospital. Is this why the staff here think that they are better than anyone else?'

Peter was so tempted to slap her across his face but he restrained himself.
