Love Is Fair by Kerri novel Chapter 176

Chapter 176 A good ex should be like dead Owen left after a bunch of inexplicable words. Recalling his words, Hailey pressed her lips somewhat speechless. ‘Does he mean to repay a favor? Why does it look more like revenge?’ She sincerely felt it would be his greatest kindness to her that they could never contact each other in the future. Every time he appeared, she would be in a bad mood. ‘It’s really annoying.’

Hailey held a meeting with the medical team in the dean’s office. After the meeting, she contacted Kyle directly. Afraid that he was busy, she just sent a WhatsApp message. (I have read the patient’s information, and the operation can be done.) No sooner had the message been sent than a video call came through. Hailey pressed the answer, and a face appeared on the camera, but not her familiar appearance. Looking at this man with messy hair, stubble beard, and raccoon eyes, who was the appearance of an old uncle, Hailey didn’t dare to recognize him at first. She frowned tightly and said, “Kyle, are you fleeing from famine?” “No,” Kyle’s voice was hoarse and he said in a drawl, “I, your brother was abused.” Hailey, as well as the Medical team were all wordless. In the spirit of not letting the family scandal be publicized, Hailey waved the medical team off first, leaving her alone in the office. She focused her eyes on Kyle again and asked in a low voice, “What’s the matter?

Did you quarrel with Nick?” “It’s all right. We just bickered a few words.” The man who had just shouted that he had been “abused” suddenly became calm and got up

to pour himself a glass of water. The light there was dim. Originally, Hailey thought he was sitting on the sofa. With his action of getting up, she found that he was lying on the bed, and there was something tied to his wrist. She looked intently and the corner of her eye jumped. “Well, Kyle.” “Yes?” Kyle poured water into his mouth. Hailey glanced at him and said, “Would Nick handcuff you if you two just bickered a few words?” Hearing this, Kyle shook the handcuffs on his wrist. “Oh, this… You don’t understand. This is a new interest we invented.” ‘I don’t believe what you said.’ Hailey thought. She narrowed her eyes. “Tell me, did Nick catch you doing something bad?” “Tutted,” Kyle said discontentedly, “whose sister are you? Why don’t you take your brother side but take others’ instead?” “Nonsense, Nick dotes on you so much. How is he willing to treat you like this?” Hailey was impatient. “If you don’t tell the truth, I’ll call Nick directly.” Then she was about to hang up. Kyle hurriedly stopped her. “Hey, you can call him later. Take it easy. Let’s finish the business first.” Hailey looked at him suspiciously. “Did you do that on purpose? You want to play a bitter trick and ask me to help you?” ‘Kyle is

concerned with his image as much as Brook. He always makes himself clean and tidy, how could he allow himself to be so untidy and show it to her. Obviously, he wants to use me as a tool.’ Kyle didn’t refute but grinned, “You are so smart.” Hailey was speechless. Anyway, none of these elder brothers was normal except the eldest one. “Then let’s talk about business first.” Hailey briefly analyzed the patient’s condition, and then said, “This patient should have injured the spinal cord due to some trauma, or

suffered from some tumor compression of the spinal cord, resulting in high paraplegia symptoms. Fortunately, he is not completely paralyzed, and there is still a possibility of treatment. I referred to his resume and found that he had also been in the army before. It seems that he was still a special policeman, so his physical foundation is quite good.”. “Yes.” Kyle said, “More than that, I heard from Professor Herman that he had also worked undercover in the border area for five years.

This is how he got these injuries. It’s lucky that he survived.” Hailey couldn’t help being awed after hearing this. “My team and I have drawn up a preliminary treatment plan. The specific details will be determined after further examination. Please tell Professor Herman that I will fly back to Poya this evening and arrange the operation next week.” “OK, I’ll contact him.” Alter finishing the business, Hailey put down the papers and said, “Now, you can tell me what was going on, and I’ll decide whether to help you in front of Nick.” Kyle touched his nose. “Actually, it’s not a big deal.” In the hesitancy of Kyle, Hailey finally understood the whole story. The cause was that a man Kyle had dated suddenly became seriously ill. He had found Kyle and asked him to save him. Considering the previous affection and the doctor’s sense of professional ethics, Kyle had operated on him and saved him. The ex-boyfriend, after recovering from his illness, had wanted to regain Kyle, so he had done many things that everyone in the hospital had known it. After Kyle explicitly refused him, he had gone to Nicholas’ law firm to swear sovereignty, which caused a storm in the city. Nicholas had been very angry. After beating the silly ex-boyfriend, he taught him a lesson when they had returned home. Kyle felt huiniliated when he told his sister these things. “That’s what happened…” He sighed lightly, “I really don’t have anything to do with Pierre. I am not sitting on the fence. I’ve explained it to Nick for numerous times, but he still doesn’t believe me. I’m forced to do

this.” After hearing this, Hailey did not sympathize with Kyle at all and gave him a cold snort. “You asked for it. No wonder Nick is angry with

you. A good ex should be like dead and out of each other’s lives. Why they still come to pester? They don’t know how to cherish when together, but start to show their existence when apart. Don’t they know the principle that one could unable to have a same chance for twice? They are just cheap, mentally ill, and idle!” Her mouth kept scolding, like a machine gun blazing, and Kyle was stupefied. “No, you’re wrong. It’s not me who pesters him. It’s him who pesters me…” “All right, stop nagging and reflect on yourself.” Hailey hung up the video phone, eased the turbidity in her chest, and gave Nicholas a call. “Hi, Nick, this is Hailey…” She became a peacemaker for this time, mainly because she thought it was not easy for them to get together, and it was not worth souring the relationship because of the misunderstanding of some outsiders. Nicholas listened to her quietly, and said with a calm voice. ”Yeah, I know, I just want to teach that brat a lesson. Don’t always act like a good man and be compassionate.”

Hailey was relieved when Nicholas said he would go home to have a look later. After hanging up, she sent a message to Kyle. Kyle was very happy and sent her a red envelope. Hailey accepted it without hesitation. However, she was still depressed. ‘A good ex should withdraw from each other’s lives and no longer contact each other as if they were dead, at least I think so. When you love, love happily. When you don’t love, turn around and leave. It’s not my style or what I like to linger on and on. Why does Owen not understand such a simple principle?’
