Always Been Yours

Chapter 1340

After listening to Jason's suggestion, Susan asked, "You have a plan in mind already, don't you?"

"Indeed." Then, he nodded and elaborated on his plan. "We can bribe one of the hospital staff to mess up Tessa's physical therapy plan."

When she heard that, a frown appeared, but it was unclear whether she agreed or disagreed with the plan.

"After all, the wrong treatment plan would only worsen the patient's condition," Jason continued. "Not only would that stop Tessa from recovering, but her injuries will only worsen. It has the same effect as making her a cripple."

While that made sense, Susan was still dissatisfied with the suggestion.

"That takes too long. We are unsure if there will be a last-minute change to the plan. I can't wait that long anyway. I want you to destroy her in the shortest time possible!"

"Miss Susan, I understand you want revenge, but we cannot underestimate the Sawyer Group."

He tried to persuade her with logic, but she was infuriated by his efforts.

Seeing that Susan was on the verge of losing it, Jason reminded her, "They struck you down even when they were abroad. We are now in Xerthania, their home ground. To avoid making the same mistakes, we have to be cautious. As long as we're alive, even if one of our plans doesn't work out, we can always try again with another one."

It was the last few sentences that calmed her down.

Back when they were abroad, Tessa sent her to prison, and Susan had to fake her death to escape.

"Fine. We'll do as you say. I don't care how you'll do it, but do not ever disappoint me with the results."

She eventually conceded but took the chance to emphasize her demand once more.

Consequently, Jason nodded and reassured her.

…

The following day, Tessa headed to the hospital as usual. She was about to begin her session when a nurse entered the room.

"Madam Tessa, a moment, please," said the nurse.

"What is it?" Tessa looked at the nurse, confused.

"There has been a change in your routine," the nurse explained. Following that, she handed her a new treatment plan.

When Tessa read it, she found her 30-minute slot suddenly increased to one and a half hours. The previously listed simple exercises were also replaced with some rather challenging routines.

Why is there a sudden change in my treatment plan?

"Why was it changed, and why wasn't I informed sooner?"

"I, well, I don't really know." However, the nurse shook her head to emphasize her ignorance. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Tessa frowned. "Is Dr. Clayton busy? I'd like to ask him about this."

After she rested for o while, Tesso hod the driver send her home.

Dr. Clayton was her attending physician.

Still, the nurse shook her head and said, "Early this morning, Dr. Clayton boarded a flight to attend an international conference. Is there an issue with the routine?" Then, she cautiously observed Tessa's reaction.

Nonetheless, Tessa smiled and replied, "There is no issue, but I was not informed of the sudden change."

"I understand. However, Dr. Clayton left so quickly that he did not have the time to inform you. Still, I have copied his instructions to the letter." The nurse continued to explain.

In the end, Tessa nodded and agreed to the revisions. After the nurse left, Tessa read her revised routine again. While she found it suspicious, she still followed the exercise routines as listed.

After one hour, she was completely drenched in sweat, her muscles ached, and she felt like she could not go on. She was about to give up when she recalled it was part of Dr. Clayton's revised routine, so she forced herself to stay for the remaining thirty minutes. When her allotted time was up, she sat down on the floor to rest, panting heavily from her exercise.

This one-and-a-half-hour routine is too exhausting for me.

After she rested for a while, Tessa had the driver send her home.
