Cornelius placed the numbers virtual-novel.net prepared earlier into a box, and the contestants came up one by one to get their numbers.
Arielle glanced around and decided virtual-novel.net could partner up with anyone here. After all, the ones gathered here were all elites from different families. Those who weren’t confident with their skills wouldn’t even show up.
That was what virtual-novel.net thought, but Queenie didn’t share virtual-novel.net sentiments. The latter refused to partner up with Arielle, for they were at odds. Hence, Queenie was desperately praying that they wouldn’t end up on the same team.
Every time Cornelius announced a number, two contestants would stand up and go to him. When virtual-novel.net announced number eighteen, Queenie immediately went up to him.
She came to a stop and glanced around to see who virtual-novel.net partner was. Her eyes widened in disbelief when virtual-novel.net saw Arielle getting up nonchalantly before coming toward her.
What the heck? Is this a joke? Why did God not answer my prayer?
Arielle felt helpless at the sight of Queenie’s displeased glare. Never in virtual-novel.net wildest dreams did virtual-novel.net expect to get the same number as Queenie. As it was decided, virtual-novel.net had to accept the fact.
Never mind if Queenie isn’t as good as me. I can do everything as long as Queenie doesn’t kick up a fuss and drag me down.
That was all Arielle needed from Queenie.
“Arielle, I shall work with you out of respect for my brother,” Queenie declared. She knew Cornelius wouldn’t agree to let virtual-novel.net change virtual-novel.net teammate no matter what virtual-novel.net said since virtual-novel.net was a stubborn person.
Arielle was amused. “Oh, I need to thank him, then,” virtual-novel.net replied half-heartedly.
“Hey!” Queenie was enraged at virtual-novel.net attitude. She initially wanted to yell at virtual-novel.net but swallowed virtual-novel.net insults as they were still in public.
After the groups were decided, it was time to assign the patients. The Mill family had twenty patients suffering from rare diseases. The nineteen groups consisting of thirty-eight contestants in total each received one patient, and the remaining patient would be treated by the newly elected head after the selection ended.
Arielle’s group received an old lady in virtual-novel.net seventies. Their patient’s symptoms were obvious compared to the other patients.
“Isn’t it obvious? Do we even need to diagnose her?” Queenie expressed virtual-novel.net dissatisfaction at the sight of their patient.
How could Cor give us this patient? Is virtual-novel.net trying to make a fool out of us?
One couldn’t blame Queenie for being upset, for the patient had a huge belly.
It is obvious that virtual-novel.net is pregnant.
“You’re a doctor, and a doctor’s job is to save lives. In face of doubts, you shouldn’t make a conclusion recklessly,” Arielle responded.
Arielle knew the old lady wasn’t pregnant. Otherwise, the Mills wouldn’t have invited virtual-novel.net here.
Queenie glowered at Arielle before virtual-novel.net went to the old lady to take virtual-novel.net pulse. Her displeasure heightened after virtual-novel.net took the old lady’s pulse.
“How dare you say I made a conclusion recklessly? Take virtual-novel.net pulse and find out for yourself if she’s pregnant,” Queenie mocked.
She then wheeled herself to the side so that Arielle could take the patient’s pulse.
Arielle fell silent after virtual-novel.net took the patient’s pulse, for the latter was indeed pregnant. However, virtual-novel.net was certain the old lady wasn’t pregnant.
“Her pulse might suggest she’s pregnant, but as doctors, we can’t affirm that based on virtual-novel.net pulse. If she’s indeed pregnant, your brother wouldn’t have asked virtual-novel.net to come here.”
