Chapter 516
Maja was shaking with pain, and Carol was pleading with Abner in the hallway to contact Phelps as soon as possible.
Carol and Phelps didn’t know each other well, and if she called him directly, he might not respond immediately. Only
Abner could do it.
Abner had made the call and then told her, “Heard that Carlene from the Shepard family got injured too; Phelps
went there first. He’ll come over after he deals with that.”
Carol was pissed off. “No matter how badly Carlene is injured, can it be worse than Maja?! That annoying jerk–I bet
she did it on purpose!”
After she spoke, she heard Abner scolding her.

“I’ve told you before that you need to change your temper. You’ve been reckless all the time, and now your words
are getting out of control.” Tears instantly flowed down Carol’s cheeks.
“Dad, Maja’s hand is for drawing. If she can’t recover to her previous condition, her talent will be ruined.”
“Just wait; if you insist on having Phelps himself, then we can only wait until he finishes dealing with the Shepard
family.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCarol gritted her teeth and had to let the hospital doctor handle it.
Although the hospital doctor was also professional, any mistake could affect Maja’s life.
But she had no other choice.
The doctor started to examine Maja’s fingers.
If it were an ordinary person with such an injury, they may have already cried out in pain, but Maja was
exceptionally quiet from the beginning to the end, her eyes dull, her lips tightly closed.
She calmly asked the doctor, “Can my hand recover to its previous state?”
The doctor was examining Maja bit by bit, and this process was undoubtedly extremely painful for her.
Maja closed her eyes, her eyelashes wet from sweat.
Carol was fuming at the side: “We initially invited Phelps over, but at the critical moment, Carlene also got injured,
and Phelps temporarily went there, probably summoned by lan. How ironic! Is lan just going to let Maja’s hand go to
waste?”
Carol thought that mentioning this would change Maja’s expression, but Maja just suddenly opened her eyes,
staring at her own fingers.
The pain was like needles.
But what she cared about more was whether her fingers could recover.
Carol was fuming at the side; damn lan!
Maja should never be with him again!
She paced anxiously but felt somewhat fearful seeing the calm Maja.
Maja loved drawing the most; if she can’t draw in the future, what will she do?
Maybe she had already figured out what to do; hence, she appeared so calm now, like she had already given up
hope.
After the doctor finished examining Maja’s fingers, he started to carefully treat the wound.
During this, Maja just frowned a little, then, as if numb, she turned her head to look out the window.
She wasn’t nervous, but the doctor was very nervous.
It was his first time seeing such a calm patient.
If it were an ordinary adult man, they may have already cried out in pain.
On the other side..
Phelps had arrived at the Shepard family; he thought Carlene was seriously injured since lan personally called him.
But when he got there, he found out that Carlene just had a normal fracture.
Did such a small matter require his personal attention?
But considering Phelps’s character, he would never utter such words.
Phelps treated Carlene’s wound in less than three minutes.
Just as he was about to leave, lan arrived and asked Phelps, “How is it?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPhelps replied, “It’s done; I need to report to the hospital now.”
Phelps was going to work at the hospital in Greenfield, so he didn’t need to go abroad frequently anymore.
lan nodded, then glanced at Carlene.
Carlene immediately stood up, saying, “Have breakfast before you leave, lan. I have something to discuss with you
about Eric.”
Hearing this, lan stopped.
But at this moment, Phelps received a call from Abner, asking if he had finished treating Carlene’s injury.
Phelps hung up the phone, saying, “I still have other patients to attend to; I can’t stay.”
Carlene didn’t want Phelps to leave; she was worried his patient was Penny. Even if the possibility was one in a
thousand, she didn’t want to take the risk.
Carlene said, “Phelps, I still feel some pain in my finger; could my other hand also be fractured but you didn’t
notice?”
Phelps frowned. “Ms. Shepard, your injury will recover in about a week.”
Carlene insisted, “Please check me again.”
Phelps was patient, but after several calls from Abner, he could feel the severity of the situation there. Phelps
frowned at Carlene, and at this time, lan said, “Just check her again Carlene’s hands are for drawing.”
This sentence made Phelps decide to stay a little longer.
