Chapter 13 I’m Warning You
“Cora, your mother’s me tal state is not stable. Try not to provoke her any further,” reminded Matt, Flora’s attending
doctor, after finishing his examination.
“I’ll be more careful next time,” Cora said, visibly depressed.
Matt changed the subject. “How’s your internship going lately?”
Aside from being Flora’s doctor, Matt was also Cora’s schoolmate and a surgeon at the First Hospital.
“It’s been going well. I’ve been learning a lot in the emergency room,” Cora replied.
“That’s great! Professor Smith has high hopes for you to become the best surgeon in the cardiac surgery department. The
prosthetic valve dysfunction replacement surgery you performed two years ago is considered a classic case, mentioned
by every professor in the Department of Medicine.”
Normally, medical students who hadn’t graduated yet could only serve as assistants, even if they had the opportunity to
observe surgeries under Professor Smith.
However, Cora possessed exceptional talent, and Professor Smith held her in high regard.

He had entrusted Cora to be the primary surgeon in the prosthetic valve dysfunction replacement surgery, taking a risk by
allowing her to lead the operation.
Of course, Professor Smith was there to guide her every step of the way. If anything went wrong, he could intervene and
correct it promptly.
As it turned out, Professor Smith’s faith in Cora was justified. She performed exceptionally well in that complex surgery,
setting a new record as the youngest surgeon in the cardiac surgery department with outstanding results.
Enter title…
Matt served as the third assistant during that surgery and was always excited to talk about Cora’s exceptional
performance ever since.
“Another genius doctor joined us lately, by the way. She ski ped grades and obtained a master’s degree in junior high,
then pursued medical studies abroad. I’m curious to know who between you and this doctor is better.”
The admission standards at the medical university Cora attended were much higher than those of typical universities.
Thus, upon graduation, Cora earned three qualifications: a doctoral candidate, a doctorate, and a professional doctor’s
certificate.
Having ski ped grades to become a medical student during her junior high years, Cora was a shining example that
ordinary students like Matt Cohen admired.
Now, hearing about another straight-A student like Cora joining the hospital, it was inevitable for Matt and others to make
comparisons.
But Matt did not know that being a doctor held no value to Cora’s mother.
When Cora decided to s ip grades and pursue medicine, Flora was vehemently opposed to it.
It was only through the persuasion of her father and brother that Flora reluctantly gave in.
With the Lane family in dire straits and Cora unable to help due to professional constraints, she now blamed herself for
not heeding Flora’s advice back then.
