Chapter 4 Liar

Megan heard a sound and instinctively looked in the direction of the noise. Joseph quickly blocked the thumb ring with his foot and said to Oliver, "You dropped your wedding ring." Oliver: "…" When did he get married? How did he not know? Oliver immediately picked up Dragon Seal and put it in his pocket. Joseph successfully blocked it with his foot, and Megan didn't see it. Although she felt something strange, she didn't ask further. Megan looked at Joseph and said, "I have another request." "Please tell me." "Help me find someone who is with Rh-negative blood type and willing to donate bone marrow. I can pay." Medical treatment is the main industry of the Martinez family, and their hospitals had own systems and the most comprehensive medical database. She had been unable to find a donor to replace Sophie, but Joseph might be able to surprise her. Joseph nodded, "Alright, I need a profile of the donee." "I will send it to you later. By the way, you have lost a lot of blood, so a blood transfusion will help you recover faster." "Thank you for the reminder." Megan turned back to her apartment. James was caught eating her food. Megan smiled, "I asked for your help, you can eat more." "Lucky day!" - Megan was packing the food as she said, "Since Hannah won't eat too much." "How about we eat with Hannah today?" Seeing Grandma was like meeting her parents. Megan had no idea what James was thinking. "No." Although James rarely appeared, as the only son of the Moore family, almost everyone recognized him. If the people from the Johnson knew about her close relationship with James, they would cling to her like maggots. James also knew the corrupt nature of the Johnson and immediately dismissed the idea. "Alright, I will go see her after she gets better. You should go now, you're already twenty minutes late." "OK." "I'll come over for dinner." "Bye." Megan carried the meal box to the hospital. Her apartment was just across the street from the hospital, so she quickly arrived. Hannah knew that Megan was always on time, so she was worried. When she was about to make a call, Megan pushed the door open and entered. "Grandma, I stewed the soup for a little longer today and came a bit late. Are you hungry?" Hannah didn't look very well. When she saw Megan, she felt relieved and smiled, "Sure." Megan set up the small dining table on the sickbed and placed the dishes on top. Hannah didn't start eating. Instead, she reached out and touched Megan's head. Her fingers were stained with blood. "Megan, why is there blood? Are you injured?" Megan had changed, but she didn't expect to have gotten Joseph's blood on her head. Seeing Grandma looking worried, she made up a lie. "I passed by the fish stall earlier, and it might have splashed on me by accident." Hannah confirmed that she wasn't injured before feeling relieved. After they finished their meal, Hannah started her usual banter. "Megan, when are you going to bring a boyfriend for me to see?" Her biggest wish was to see Megan settle down before she died. "I'm working on it. Maybe one day I'll bring my husband to see you." At this moment, Megan never would have imagined that her offhand joke would soon come true. After Hannah fell asleep, she quietly left the ward. Taking the elevator to the first floor, a nurse's voice reached Megan's ears. "Make way, the patient needs emergency treatment." Upon hearing this, she immediately stepped out of the elevator and made space. As the mobile bed passed by her, she recognized the injured person. Joseph! His face was covered in blood, and he was covered with a white cloth soaked in blood, appearing to be seriously injured. The emergency doctor followed behind the bed, making arrangements for the operation over the phone. "The patient was in a car accident, head injury, two broken ribs, internal bleeding, both legs…" Megan was listening attentively when she was rudely pushed aside by a nurse. "Get out of the way." She staggered back a few steps and hit the cold wall with her back. Thinking that the nurse was in a hurry to save him, she didn't say anything. As she was leaving, she saw the wheels of the mobile bed get stuck in the gap of the elevator door, and Joseph's hand slipped out. On his thumb, he wore an antique thumb ring. Sure enough, it was Dragon Seal she had been looking for. She finally understood why she had felt that the sound of the wedding ring falling on the ground was strange. It was a thumb ring. "Joseph, you liar!" Megan gritted her teeth and wanted to take the thumb ring, but the elevator door closed before she could. She turned around and climbed the stairs. By the time she reached the ninth floor, Joseph had just been pushed into the operating room. At the same time, the people from the Martinez family came out of the elevator and asked the nurse about Joseph's condition. The nurse didn't know much, either. Liam asked, "Where are his personal belongings?" As soon as he finished speaking, his eldest son, Thomas, anxiously said, "He was wearing a thumb ring, which is a heirloom. Give it back to us quickly." Upon hearing this, Megan understood why Joseph had avoided the topic of Dragon Seal. The heirloom of his family naturally wouldn't be given to an outsider like her. And judging by how nervous the Martinez family was, they knew there was an antidote inside. It seems the only way to get the thumb ring is to sneak into the operating room! Thinking of this, Megan walked to the end of the empty corridor and made a phone call. Soon, the director of Sledeshly First Hospital received a notice from the Medical Association and met with Megan. After learning Megan's identity, the director changed Joseph's lead surgeon to her. Megan put on the surgical gown and a mask, and went to the operating room. Joseph had suffered a head injury and his legs were severely deformed from compression, both requiring immediate attention. It was unrealistic to do both surgeries at the same time because his body was too weak and couldn't bear it. If they chose to do the brain surgery, Joseph's legs might be disabled. If they chose to do the leg surgery, Joseph might become a vegetable. For anyone else, it would only be a choice between the two. But Megan had the ability to do both surgeries simultaneously. She glanced at the shelf at the entrance of the operating room. On the shelf were Joseph's clothes and personal belongings, but no thumb ring. Taking advantage of the opportunity to examine Joseph, she touched his left hand. The thumb ring was there. Joseph's thumb was bent and couldn't be straightened by force, so the nurse couldn't remove the ring. But for Megan, it was not difficult. She stimulated several acupoints and Joseph's stiff thumb involuntarily straightened. But when she took off the ring, Joseph suddenly opened his eyes.
