A Replacement Bride

"I was too impulsive just now. Kathy, I'll tell them right now to send the patient over as

soon as possible, but their leader may want to come in…"

"If he comes in, I won't save him." Katherine was stern.

A comatose patient did not matter, but she could not guarantee that a living person would

not reveal her identity.

"Okay." Seeing Katherine's firm attitude, Theodore stopped requesting further.

Katherine returned to Cechirus in secret this time, and it would be really troublesome if

her whereabouts were leaked.

Theodore turned around and made a phone call, arguing a few words with the other party,

and finally hung up.

"They've agreed to send the patient over immediately, and it is estimated that they will

arrive within an hour."

"Alright." Katherine nodded, ignored this matter, and went to see Alex first.

Fortunately, Alex recovered pretty well.

Katherine read the data and noticed that the activity of brain cells was very high. Although

it had not returned to its normal level, it had already reached one-third of the norm. It was

estimated that he would be completely recovered in two to three months.

However, since he had been in a coma for several years, all aspects of his body's functions

had declined, so recovery would be a slow process.

Currently, Alex could not speak yet. When Katherine went to see him, he stared at her

blankly.

Theodore quickly set up the operating room. Knowing that Katherine went to see Alex, he

followed along.

"His recovery seems to be smooth. There should be no problem with the medicine."

Theodore looked at Alex's condition, and then looked at Katherine's different gaze.

He has studied the human brain for more than 40 years, yet this was the first time he had

seen such a miraculous drug that could actually restore the activity of dead brain cells.

"Everyone's physical condition is different, and his example cannot be used as a general

case. What did the hospital say? Can they send us some brain-dead patients for clinical

trials?" Katherine shook her head. She was not as confident as Theodore.

"Not yet. I've already contacted many tertiary hospitals in Cechirus, and we'll be notified

immediately when there is news." Theodore shook his head, also a little disappointed.

Anyway, human clinical trials sounded quite indecent, so very few family members were

willing to send their patients over.

"You should contact minor hospitals too. It's best to get a few more people." Katherine

frowned, but she was relieved after pondering about it.

After seeing Alex, Katherine and Theodore went to the office, and as soon as they sat

down, a phone rang.

She then glanced at her phone. Instantly, annoyance painted her face. Jorge must be up to

no good since he was calling.

Theodore also noticed the change in Katherine's expression, so glanced at her phone

screen unintentionally and saw the words 'scumbag' written on it.

His eyebrows twitched. Scumbag? Did Katherine get cheated on? he wondered.

Just as he was about to ask, Katherine answered the phone irritably, but there was no

emotion in her tone. "What's up, Dad?"

"Kathy, the Levisays have a great project recently, and Cornell Group also took a fancy to

this project. Now that you've decided to marry Joaquin, can you please ask them to hand

over this project to us?"

Jorge's tone was flattering. If he had a tail, he was probably wagging it right now.

A mocking smile appeared on Katherine's face as she replied vaguely, "Sure. I'll mention

this to Joaquin, but I'm not sure whether the Levisays will agree to it."

"Okay. Go and talk to them. I'm sure they'll agree." It would be weird if they did not agree.

Joaquin was just a cripple now. The Levisays must be grateful that someone was finally

willing to marry him, so they must be trying to hold on to Katherine tightly.

Whenever he thought that the Cornells' status would rise with the Levisays, Jorge could no

longer hide his excitement.

"Mom! Look at Dad!" Rosemary was about to die of anger.

On the way to Levisay Residence yesterday, she was abandoned by Katherine on the road.

As a result, she missed the opportunity to meet Robert. Jorge also promised to seek justice

for her, but now what?

"Enough. I told you not to provoke Katherine for the time being. You're the dignified

daughter of our family. Why would you compare yourself with an illegitimate child? Once

she gets married to the Levisays and we had made full use of her, you can torture her as

much as you like! Why do you have to hold a grudge now?"

Lisa raised her hand and patted the back of Rosemary's hand, looking like she was

frustrated with her daughter.

Rosemary felt more at ease after hearing those words, but she still felt resentful. "Mom, I

don't think Katherine is that simple. If that b*tch marries into the Levisays, wouldn't she

deliberately make them go against us?"

"Haha. Do you really think she's that capable? Her? She's just an uneducated bumpkin.

How could she think of that? Don't worry. You will have everything she has in the future,

and maybe even more. What you have to do now is to act like the daughter of the

Cornells. Listen, you're Robert Levisay's future wife, the mistress of the Levisays," Lisa

sneered disdainfully, not taking Katherine to heart at all.

"By the way, Mom, I like a few things that the Levisays gave to that little slut last time.

Can I take them?" When Rosemary imagined that she would be the mistress of the

Levisays in the future and that Katherine would have to listen to her, her mood instantly

lightened.

"You can take whatever you like. They are all yours anyway." Lisa waved her hand

nonchalantly, stating matter-of-factly.
