Catherine did not notice it, "In fact, it's not difficult to guess what kids are thinking. As a doctor, I know the psychology of some patients more or less. Sometimes, catering to patients' pleasure will be helpful to them."
"Let me tell you something about Ryan." Catherine opened Ryan's medical records, "It's congenital heart disease. You should know that."
"Well, I know that."
"But Ryan didn't get the treatment well before. His physical condition is not suitable for receiving heart surgery, so maybe he needs to take a good recuperation for a period." Catherine paused, "I didn't say that to Ryan."
"Thank you, Dr. Winston. Does Ryan need to have a heart transplant?" Andrew looked at Catherine, who was serious in speech and manner.
Catherine was surprised, looking up to Andrew.
"Well, there was a doctor in a hospital who suggested a heart transplant, but he couldn't find a matching heart and Ryan didn't cooperate with him."
"There is no need for a heart transplant. A heart transplant is the last option, but there is still a chance of surgery."
"Take good care of him. If not necessary, I think he should not have a heart transplant. If Ryan has a rejection reaction, it will be dangerous."
Andrew frowned and thanked Catherine before leaving.
Catherine nodded and stopped Andrew, "Mr. Williams."
"What else? Dr. Winston."
Catherine played with the pen in her hand. It's about Ryan, so she couldn't help but suggest, "Ryan is a sensitive boy. If you can, please stay with him as much as possible."
Ryan turned sensitive and isolated himself from the world probably because he hasn't enjoyed the love of parents from childhood.
Catherine recalled that in order to persuade the child to receive the treatment at that time, she had suffered a lot.
"Well, I know." Andrew smiled, "I'll stay with him when I'm not busy."
Catherine frowned and she felt Andrew's words were strange, but Andrew left.
Forget it. She had no right to blame him.
The door was accidentally pushed open, and Andrew came in again, "Dr. Winston, can you do me a favor?"
Catherine was stunned, "What kind of favor?"
Andrew seated himself, "Well, when Ryan was young, his mother had an accident, so he isolated himself from others for so many years. You are the first woman he accepted."
Catherine frowned. What did he mean?
"If you can, I hope you can help me to straighten out his wrong thinking. Over the years, he thought I killed his mother and he has been hostile to me."
Catherine took a deep breath. She had thought Andrew would put forward some unreasonable requests.
"Well, I'll do my best. Don't worry, Mr. Williams."
"Call me Andrew." A genial smile covered his face again.
Catherine looked at the closed door thoughtfully. Catherine finally knew the reason. Ryan isolated himself from others because of the death of his mother.
But Catherine was at a loss what to do. She got along well with Ryan, but if she was going to touch the sensitive topic, she had to take a great risk.
While Andrew returned to the ward, Ryan immediately put down the book in his hands, "How's it going? What did Catherine say?"
Andrew looked at his son, who obviously cared more about Catherine than his father.
"She said nothing. She only told me about your disease." Andrew smiled softly, "Go to bed first."
Ryan frowned and stared at his father, "I tell you, you have to date with Catherine, or I will not let you marry anyone else."
Andrew doubted whether his son was really only nine years old.
"You receive the treatment first and I'll find my way," Andrew promised reluctantly.
Ryan carefully looked at his father and smiled, "In fact, you also feel that Dr. Winston is very nice, right? Otherwise, you will not promise me."
Although Ryan was not very familiar with his father, he knew him. If Andrew didn't want to do so, no one could force him. But he had promised him just now, which meant that he had feelings about Catherine.
There was no response from Andrew, but he kept smiling, "I only met her twice."
"It's not a problem. It's even normal for you to fall in love with her at first sight."
"Go to bed now."
Ryan opened his book again, "You admitted. Don't blame me for not reminding you that you have a very strong rival."
Andrew looked at Ryan resignedly. He should consider the matter when the rival really showed up.
Ryan looked at his father and had an assessment silently in his heart. Although his father was a little unsatisfactory, he was better than Leonard.
And his father has never done anything to hurt Andrew. At this point, his father would win Leonard.
It should not be a big problem for Catherine to marry his father.
On the other side, Catherine in the office completely didn't know Andrew and Ryan's conversation. If she knew, she would be speechless.
She didn't accept Leonard now not only because Leonard once had hurt her but because she was not in the mood to start a relationship again.
This kind of thing was annoying and painstaking.
In the apartment, Leonard was sleeping. His mobile phone on the bedside table suddenly lit up. There was a text message, but unfortunately, Leonard did not wake up.
When Leonard woke up the next day and saw the text message, Leonard was irritated. He hurriedly changed his clothes and went to the hospital.
The text message said that Ryan's father and Catherine were in contact.
Although Leonard and Catherine have divorced, his men still called Catherine Mrs. Campbell.
When Leonard arrived at the hospital, it happened to be Catherine's off-duty time.
Catherine packed her things, ready to go home from work. When she just got out of the office, someone called her, "Dr. Winston."
Catherine turned around and said hello to him, "Mr. Williams."
