She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor - Chapter 88

Joy Ward cold ly pulled at the corner of her mouth, “Hope Williams, why must you
always be against me? What good does it do you?”
Hope Williams’s lips curled with a hint of mockery.
“Isn’t it you who’s been biting at me like a mad dog?”
“You!” Joy’s fists clenched tight ly as she took two steps forward, “Hope Williams, don’t
you have any evidence yet? Are you still not giving up?”
Hope raised her eyebrows slightly and spoke indifferently, “It’s just what you think, Joy.
From now on, you’d better tuck your foxy tail in and see if there are any other loopholes
you’ve left unfilled. Remember to check for any oversights, and patch them up. Don’t let
me catch any leverage against you, or else… you’re done for.”
“What do you mean?” Joy’s face instantly took on a guarded expressi on as she grabbed
Hope’s hand, “You… what evidence do you still have?”
...
Hope shook off Joy’s hand with cold detachment.
Furious, Joy gritted her teeth, her gaze seeming as though she wanted to tear Hope
apart by any means necessary.
As Hope turned around, Joy raised her hand to grab at Hope. But with a swift shift of
her eyes, Hope sidestepped, her icy gaze landing on the suspended hand. With a
chilling look in her eyes, she directly seized the hand.
“What’s this? Trying old tricks ag ain?”
“…” Joy’s silver teeth seemed almost on the verge of shattering as she struggled
furiously to break free from Hope’s grip, but held by Hope’s pinch, she couldn’t muster
any strength.
All of a sudden, Joy raised her other hand, aiming to slap Hope acr oss the face, but
Hope, sensing Joy’s intent, preemptively raised her hand and struck Joy’s face first.
“Ah… Hope Williams, you!” Enraged to the point of gnashing her teeth, it was at this
moment that Joy suddenly saw someone approaching from a distance, h er lips curling
into a twisted smile. In the next moment, her expression changed dramatically, “Miss
Williams, why are you hitting me? Please, let me go…”

The sudden change of face was utterly repulsive to Hope, who, sensing someone
approaching, still didn ’t hesitate to let go of Joy’s hand.
Joy stumbled weakly, tears falling as if they cost nothing, “Miss Williams, you…”
“Cut out the acting, it disgusts me.”
Hope turned to leave and saw a man standing behind her with an unhappy expression.
She didn’t know how long he had been standing there listening, but Hope was not the
least bit guilty and said nothing.
Without hesitation, Hope began to walk away, but after just a few steps, her arm was
seized by the man, and a hint of coldness flickered in Hope’s eyes.
Hope looked at him indifferently, removed his hand from hers with a calm sweep, and
coldly walked past him.
Waylon Lewis scanned Joy, his deep eyes gliding over with touches of inquiry and
complexity.
“Waylon, I was just coming to see how Miss Williams was doing after her discharge
today, never expecting her to suddenly lose her temper. It was really too much,” Joy
said.
“You knew she was temperamental and still chose to provoke her?” Waylon asked
faintly.
Joy opened her mouth, having thought that Waylon wo uld at least offer her some
comfort, but his unexpected question left her at a loss.
“I just wanted to be friends with Miss Williams.”
Saying this, Joy deliberately lowered her hand to reveal the redness on her cheek from
Hope’s slap.
“If she’s not willing , why force her?”
“I…”
“Joy Ward, do you really think I can’t see through these tricks of yours?” Waylon’s
handsome features grew colder by the second, his voice cool and devoid of any
warmth.
“Waylon, I don’t understand what you mean,” Joy said, nervous a nd fearful.

“Hope Williams may have a temper, but she wouldn’t raise her hand if she weren’t
provoked to the extreme.”
Joy Ward understood the meaning behind Waylon Lewis’s words.
The meaning was that she had done something that crossed Hope Williams’s bot tom
line and was now suffering the consequences.
Watching Waylon Lewis leave, Joy Ward was both angry and resentful, blaming Hope
Williams for it all.
…
Hope Williams went to the airport, grabbed the herbal medicine, and returned home.
She put the other herbs together and brewed them herself. After the incident with Joy
Ward, she didn’t trust leaving the medicine at the Lewis Family home.
The other members of the Lewis Family wouldn’t harm Grandpa Lewis, but they trusted
Joy Ward. There could be more mistakes, and Hope Williams would not allow such a
thing to happen again.
After Hope Williams had slowly simmered the medicine over a low heat and it was
ready , she personally delivered it to the Lewis Family home. She watched as the
servant fed the medicine to the old master, and the heart that had been in her throat
these past days finally settled.
Hope Williams then performed acupuncture with Silver Needle on Grandpa Lewis. After
being busy for half a day and seeing Grandpa Lewis’s heart rate stabilize, she finally left
at ease.
When she got home, the two little ones, Aria Richardson, had already been picked up.
Because Hope Williams hadn’t told them about her discharge, they had quite a bit of
complaining to do.
The next day, Hope Williams went to work as usual.
The hospital.
Director Woods called Hope Williams into his office and handed her a medical record
with a serious and solemn expression.
“Take a look. This patient’s surgery is probably something only you can do.”
Seeing the furrow in Director Woods’s brow, Hope Williams took the medical record and
carefully looked over each page, her brows involuntarily furrowing, “This kind of heart

tumor isn’t common, and the tumor has reached an advanced stage. What makes it
more difficult is that the patient is elderly and suffers from multiple diseases.”
Hope Williams couldn’t help but tense her brows even more.
“That’s right, and the patient is Old Lady Mrs. Knox o f the Knox Family. The hospital is
giving special attention to this surgery because of her esteemed status. However, given
Mrs. Knox’s current health status, the mortality risk from the surgery is predicted to be
very high, so…”
Hope Williams pursed her li ps, “So no doctor dares to take it?!”
Director Woods, with a helpless twist to his brow, nodded his head.
After all, the risk of death was too high, and the surgery was extremely difficult. Not to
mention the psychological pressure on the doctors, a high f ailure rate didn’t inspire
much confidence in completing the surgery, and to add, taking this thankless task could
offend the Knox Family.
Hope Williams closed the medical record, “I understand. I’ll submit a surgical plan later
on.”
Director Woods’ worrie d expression brightened up, and he let out a sigh of relief,
looking at Hope Williams, “That’s great, but how confident are you?”
Indeed, the surgery had a high mortality rate, was complex, and exceedingly difficult.
Also, due to the patient’s health condi tion, a lengthy surgery could not be sustained, so
the operation time had to be controlled within two hours. This was a significant
challenge for the lead surgeon — the slightest mistake and the patient’s condition
wouldn’t hold out until the surgery was ove r.
Of course, Hope Williams had already considered all this when she first read the
medical record.
“I’ll need to evaluate the patient before I can give you an answer.”
“Alright.”
“Knock, knock.” Two knocks sounded at the door.
Hope Williams glanced at the door with a slight frown. Joy Ward walked in, also looking
at her, her eyes holding a challenge that only the two of them would understand.
Hope Williams indifferently withdrew her gaze.
“Director Woods, Doctor Williams is here too.”

“Doctor Ward? Do you need something?”
“Director Woods, I’d like to take on Old Lady Mrs. Knox’s surgery. I’ve already drafted a
detailed surgical plan after yesterday’s consultation. Please take a look.” Joy Ward
handed her surgical plan to Director Woods.
