Chapter 991 Are You Okay?
"Ah!"
Just as Jenny finished speaking, a cup of hot coffee was splashed toward her in the next
second, catching her off guard. She hadn't anticipated it, so the coffee splashed all over
her face, instantly blurring her vision.
She wasn't feeling well, to begin with, and Alexandra's sudden act of rudeness further
aggravated her condition of discomfort. Jenny shot an icy glare at her attacker.
"Well, well. Such is the way a daughter of the York family carries herself."
"What's that supposed to mean? Are you threatening me with your family's backing?"
Alexandra sneered, meeting Jenny's gaze squarely and unflinchingly. She then said,
"Jenny, don't think you're so great just because you're the head of the Walters. Let me tell
you, even if you have a distinguished status, you still have to pay the price for your
wrongdoing!"
Jenny didn't reply. Instead, she took a tissue to wipe the coffee off of herself. "Is that so? I'll

She would make Alexandra understand what it meant to pay the price for her action, but
she didn't know if Alexandra could handle paying that price. Without saying another word,
Jenny took out her phone and called security.
Soon, security arrived and took Alexandra away.
Since she'd vented her anger, she didn't continue to linger. However, as she was leaving,
she still looked at Jenny resentfully. "You just wait. Things won't end well for you."
Jenny laughed.
Considering that she’d treated illnesses, saved lives, and had never done anything bad,
she wondered what kind of bad ending would befall her.
After security took Alexandra away, Jenny changed into a white coat and continued to
treat patients. However, her hair was still damp. As the heat from the coffee dissipated, it
was replaced with a piercing chill. Since Jenny hadn't fully recovered from her illness yet, it
was no different from rubbing salt in the wound.
Jenny held out until she'd seen all the patients. With the last patient gone, she could no
longer bear it, so she went downstairs to find her colleague responsible for prescribing
medication for fever and cold.
However, she could barely stand straight while waiting for the elevator before she could
reach the ground floor.
"Are you okay?" A voice sounded beside her, and Jenny turned to see that it was Derrick.
Jenny shook her head and replied, ’Thank you. I'm fine."
"You don't look fine." Derrick saw her face turning red, and her overall condition seemed
off.
Jenny didn't say anything and anxiously waited for the elevator.
The elevator hadn't arrived, yet Jenny was already struggling to stand as she leaned
against the wall. She almost fell, but Derrick rushed forward to support her. "Are you
running a fever?" he asked.
Jenny nodded and tried to push him away.

firmly. Although he and Jenny had some unpleasantness before, that was all in the past.
Besides, they both had their own lives now. It wouldn't do to hold grudges forever.
Jenny wanted to refuse, but she found it difficult to even speak at the moment. The fever
medicine she took last night seemed to have only helped a little, as her condition had not
improved at all.
When the elevator finally arrived, Derrick helped her go in. But to her surprise, McKenna
was standing right inside. She never expected to see this scene when the elevator doors
opened.
McKenna became infuriated instantly. Pointing at the two of them, she shouted, "Derrick!
What are you doing?"
Her voice was loud, so the doctors and nurses who hadn't noticed them before all turned
their heads. They looked at the three of them with a range of different expressions.
Many people in the hospital knew about the conflict between them, but they thought that
Jenny wasn't interested in Derrick. However, upon seeing how Derrick was holding Jenny,
they were quite surprised.
"Could something be going on between those two?" they wondered.
