Daddy, I Want Mummy...
Chapter 22's

There are indeed plenty of neat and clean fields in the backyard, and plenty of fresh vegetables and nuts planted.

Rachel looked at the ordinary little plant and suddenly felt amazed. His family may not be as difficult as he and his parents imagined. From the beginning, they tried to get along with them from the same angle.

At that moment, he trusted them.

...----------------...

In the afternoon, Rachel went home and told her parents what she had seen and heard at Morgan's house.

They don't talk for long. Finally, Acrux said, "A family like this is fine."

Amelie smiled and said, "Your marriage is near. Honey, what kind of wedding do you want? Tell mom that mom can help you in preparing and ordering the wedding dress first."

"Christopher told me that someone would design my wedding dress."

"Oh, what about the other preparations? Any ideas about invitations or anything?"

"It seems like there's no problem. I just want to make this marriage simple. I just wanted to have dinner with my two families and invite some close friends over for dinner together. The others, I really don't think too much about it. "

Rachel is telling the truth. Over the years, she has received wedding invitations from others. Many of them had not contacted each other for many years, and they had only told him and sent him his invitation when they got married.

At first, she was not present, but the newlyweds sent her a red envelope and called her to bless her. However, it only happens during the wedding atmosphere, after which there will be no other relationship.

Rachel thinks that when she gets married, she doesn't have to send out invitations to people who don't contact her or know her well.

If he did that, then a lot of red envelopes would be wasted.

Amelie complained when she heard it. "My son, if they are your friends, they must also be present. They should celebrate with you."

"Mom can talk about this with Christopher's parents, and set it up. If you decide to invite friends and colleagues, I'll make a list." Answer Rachel.

"It's okay."

"Then I'll take a shower and sleep."

"Go."

...----------------...

On Monday, Rachel changed into a white suit and went to the patient's room. As soon as he returned to his room he saw Lira running in a hurry. "Rachel, there's bad news."

"What's wrong?"

"There was a suicidal patient in the emergency department, and the director asked you to accompany him."

"I'll be there soon."

Rachel immediately walked towards the operating room.

The operating room is ready. Two tired family members were sitting on a bench outside the operating room. Rachel hurriedly passed by for fear of seeing their sad expressions.

After Rachel enters the operating room, she sees that the surgeon is actually the director and she also wonders. "Director, did you personally handle this?"

"We don't have much time to tell stories, so be prepared."

"Hm."

Rachel and the nurse prepared things before the surgery.

In the process of preparation of surgical tools and drugs, the, Rachel learned from her colleagues at the ER that the patient committed suicide by drinking sulfuric acid and was found by her family on time and taken to the hospital.

His face was still childish, but he was lying lifeless on the operating table, and he did not know if he was alive or dead.

Rachel only had time to feel deeply and quickly work. He helps the director in the operation and constantly observes what the director is doing during the operation process.

They will have a treatment plan before surgery, and many plans will change from the actual procedure.

Whether the change in plan makes sense depends on the experience of the surgeon.

By then the patient's situation was that sulfuric acid had damaged most of the patient's mouth and throat, and blackened cheeks and throat at varying levels on its surface.

The situation was more complicated than they had previously thought. In addition, during gastric rinsing, the patient should be replaced with an artificial throat, and mouth sores should be treated appropriately.

That way, he would perform a second operation, but he had no specific concept of the first level of operation, and was dependent on the director judging him.

***

After the busy operation had passed, Rachel saw nurses pushing the patient's bed out of the operating room.

The director stood sweating beside the empty operating table and turned to Rachel. "What have you learned?"

Rachel thought about it and did not answer. After seeing him for a long time, the director said, "You're very smart. You will understand the technicalities in the future. I don't have to rush to give you that."

"Director..."

"As a doctor, I appreciate your ability to sympathize with patients, and I'm glad you didn't lose your love and responsibility as a medical worker in your day-to-day work. However, I have always been against it because when you work, you bring feelings towards the patient, which is not a good thing for the medical staff. I hope you can understand."

Rachel thought carefully for a long time. "Thank you, director."

"That's all I said, and if I repeat it, it turns into gossip, and you shouldn't listen." The director said, turned around, and went to the dressing room in the operating room to change clothes.

Rachel sat in her place, looked at the empty operating table again, and turned to leave.

***

After work in the afternoon, Rachel went down to the hospital parking lot. As he was about to walk to his car, his footsteps stopped, and he looked at Raphael who was standing beside his car coldly.

Raphael heard her footsteps and looked at Rachel James. "Rachel"

Rachel whispered, "What are you doing here?"

"I want to talk to you," said Raphael, he reached out his hand to hold Rachel's hand.

Rachel stepped back to avoid her touch. "Everything was clear about 7 years ago."

"I couldn't help it then, and you couldn't punish me because I had no choice."

"Why can't it?" Rachel sneered, "Because there's no way I'm going with you abroad. Since you have no choice, that's why you kicked me and preferred Atenia to go abroad with you. Now, you want to betray Atenia and come back with me again? What is the appropriate call I give you?."

Raphael's face was embarrassed. "I love you from start to finish, Atenia, she just..."

Rachel closed her eyes and interrupted Raphael. "If I have nothing to do with Christopher, and I'm just a regular guy. Are you gonna stay like this?"

"No problem. I regretted it in the last few years. If you give me another chance, I'll make it up to you. I can help you to get a high position in our hospital. You should be my assistant rather than a resident in a small hospital. Rachel, I'm seriously considering both of us."
