Chapter 9

Letitia's frame-up was not clever, but Ezekiel still felt distressed when he saw the panic-stricken Letitia.

He frowned, not having time to think about the unreasonableness of it and was only focused on persuading Ivy.

“Ivy, I don't blame you, but no matter how much you hate Letitia, you should always put the overall situation first.

“Letitia has an assessment this afternoon. This assessment is related to whether Letitia will stay or go. No matter how angry you are, you can't joke about Letitia's career. Is it so difficult to just lend you a piece of clothing?”

Listening to his accusations, her hands trembled uncontrollably. She nodded her head and said firmly, “Yes.”

Although Ivy did not know what Letitia was up to, why should she sacrifice herself for something she had not done?

Looking at Ezekiel's angry face, her heart ached again. Ivy really did not want to get entangled with them anymore, so she turned around and prepared to leave.

Sensing her intention, Letitia spoke again with a crying voice, “It's okay, Ezekiel. If Doctor Reid doesn't want to lend it, then don't force her. The director just scolded me a few words. I can bear it.”

Letitia seemed to be trying to persuade them, but in fact she was adding fuel to the fire.

Ezekiel's face darkened and he suddenly reached out and grabbed Ivy, holding her shoulders.

Ivy stared at him in astonishment. Her heart felt like it was being grasped by countless hands and she was about to suffocate.

After ten years of love, that was the first time Ezekiel forced her.

Just to find a white coat for Letitia, there were so many doctors in the whole hospital, why must she have that one?

Ivy's face was covered with wounds and he struggled desperately, but was still defeated.

Looking at her hurt expression, Ezekiel felt a little reluctant, but the sobbing of Letitia behind him made him harden his heart.

“Ivy, be good and wear it for a while.”

The clothes were forcibly changed and Ivy looked at the red marks on her wrists and remained silent.

There was no greater sorrow than a dead heart. She looked coldly at Letitia, who was proud of herself after changing her clothes. She raised her foot to leave, but suddenly a scream came from behind her.

It was Letitia.

She held up a red envelope and looked at Ivy in shock, “Doctor Reid, no wonder you didn't want to change clothes with me, it turns out you secretly accepted the envelope from the patient.”

All of a sudden, there was a buzzing sound in her brain and Ivy stood there in a daze.

She suddenly remembered that before the operation this morning, the patient's family had grabbed her clothes and begged desperately.

Without time to think, she subconsciously looked at everyone and shook her head to deny, “I didn't.”

By chance, the family member showed up.

He grabbed Ivy's hand with a distorted expression, “Miss Reid, why don't you have any? I gave you 4,000 dollars.”

The doctors and patients who were attracted by the exclamations looked at Ivy in surprise and talked about it.

“You can't judge a person by her appearance, but you can judge her heart by her attitude. Doctor Reid actually did such a thing. She is not worthy of being a doctor at all.”

All the strength in her body seemed to be drained away. Ivy looked up in a daze and happened to meet Letitia's smile.

She said silently, “Ivy, this is what happens if you don't break up with Ezekiel.”

Shock and anger filled Ivy's mind.

She did not have time to think, rushed over and slapped Letitia, “Letitia, you cheated me.”

Ezekiel's face changed drastically. He pulled Letitia into his arms and frowned at Ivy.

“Ivy, you disappoint me so much! You made the mistake yourself, but you still want to put the blame on Letitia.”

Hearing that, Ivy looked at him and suddenly remembered the past and her eyes could not help but redden.

When she was studying for her doctorate, her thesis topic was plagiarized by her junior, who then falsely accused her.
