Chapter 238 Ask Her Out

• Cora also admitted that this idea was a bit ridiculous. But the fact was that Flora treated Jane, the child of her romantic rival and ex, very well and even sacrificed her daughter’s happiness to fulfill hers. However, she treated Cora, her daughter, more like she treated the child of her romantic rival. Cora aspired to be a doctor who cured diseases and saved lives, but Flora would enroll her in different after-school classes and do everything possible to stop her. She and Byron would finally get married, but Flora forced them to break up and even frightened Cora with death. Furthermore, Flora had always been indifferent to Cora, but she was so gentle with Jane, whom she had met several times, and even made seafood porridge and knitted a scarf for her. Today, to please Jane, Flora even ate the mango pastry she was allergic to. And finally, she was sent to the ICU.
• Another point was that Cora and Jane had the same birthday. Just when Cora fell into a terrible thought and dazed, Hazel asked her nervously, “Dr. Lane, what’s wrong?” “Nothing.” Cora came back to her senses and quickly comforted Hazel. “You look terrible. Why don’t I send you home to rest?” Hazel thought Cora had been taken aback by the news that Flora had entered the ICU again and wanted to settle her down and send her home. But Cora rejected her, saying, “No, thanks. I still have some things to deal with here, and I will come home after I finish.” “Then I’ll go back. If you need any help, call me anytime.” When Cora was transferred to the cardiac surgery department, Hazel was around to help her. She had a good impression of Cora and felt her life was tough, so she always helped Cora as much as possible. “Okay. Thank you,” said Cora.
• After Cora watched Hazel leave, her smile disappeared without a trace. Then, she called Jane to ask her out for a meal. Jane was quite surprised to learn that Cora would invite her to a meal. She also wanted to know Cora’s motive for the sudden invitation, so she agreed. The two agreed to meet at a restaurant near the hospital. When Jane arrived, Cora was already eating steak. “Dr. Lane, what can I do for you?” Cora asked the waiter to come and said to her, “Order first. We’ll chat while eating. It’s been a long day. I’m starving.” Jane actually wanted to end their conversation quickly. But seeing Cora eat with gusto, she finally ordered a steak. The steakhouse near the hospital was not high-end, but it served the food fast.
