Chapter 455
Hugo basically knew what had happened. He thought, ‘So it is because Ms. Yates got angry. She should teach that man a lesson.’
When Sofia followed Cassidy to return to the dormitory, she hurriedly asked Cassidy to sort out all the medical reports and the medicines the doctors prescribed Cassidy.
Only then did Sofia find that Cassidy had hidden her disease from them for so long. Meanwhile, she felt a bit guilty that she didn’t notice it at all before.
“Are those all your medical reports? Did you keep them well?” Sofia reminded.
“Yes. As a medical student, I still have this awareness.” Cassidy’s tone became different, not as calm as before.
Cassidy walked to her desk and opened a pharmacology book that she had been reading recently. She took out a photo.
In the photo were three people, Sofia, Cassandra, and her. They took it during their freshman year.
Because there didn’t seem to be a photo of them three in the photo album on her phone.
Cassidy printed this one out in the end.
At the sight of the photo Cassidy took out, Sofia felt a surge of melancholy that she had just suppressed not long ago.
“Cassidy, you’ve gone too far. Why didn’t you tell me? Will you still hide it from us if Cassandra hasn’t found that you are sick? Are you going to hide it from us until you die?
Sofia cried bitterly.
Sofia didn’t expect Cassidy who always bickered with her since childhood to be ill.
They despised each other sometimes, but they were each other’s good friends. No matter how arrogant Cassidy was, if anything happened to her, it would always be Sofia who came to help her.
This might be friendship.

Since Sofia knew Cassidy had hidden the truth that she was sick from her, she felt melancholy.
“Of course not. I want to live longer.” Cassidy was very happy to know that Cassandra could save her.
Cassidy thought it would be a happy thing that she could spend the last days with her best friends even if she couldn’t recover in the end.
“Humph, if you had known this earlier, your disease wouldn’t have been so serious!” Sofia sniffed and couldn’t help complaining.
Sofia thought, ‘Why didn’t she have such a thirst for life before? Now, she wants to live longer. Did she just accept her fate before?’ Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
“Pack up those things quickly. Let’s go to Pinehart Mansion,” Sofia reminded.
They needed to give those things to Cassandra as soon as possible. Sofia thought Cassidy would be fine in the end since Cassandra said she would cure Cassidy.
Cassidy, however, hesitated at the moment. She flinched while holding the things in her hands. “I… I don’t want to go.”
“Why?”
“I don’t have any money. My father only gave me living expenses and money for medicine, which are not enough for Dr. Quirke to cure me.” Cassidy also wanted to treat her disease. She was happy to know that Cassandra was Faye, but that wasn’t the reason why she could get free treatment from Cassandra.
At least, she would feel guilty in her heart.
Sofia lapsed into silence.
“Let’s not think too much. We can ask her to cure you first. Take the medical fee as an
installment loan. When we go to work later, we can make money together and settle the bill slowly.”
Sofia also didn’t want to ask Cassandra to give Cassidy free treatment.

But Cassidy’s disease had to be treated.
Cassidy was still a little hesitant. Sofia didn’t bother to waste time with her, so she directly grabbed the things and dragged Cassidy out of the room.
When Cassandra got Cassidy’s medical reports, she took a look at them.
Cassandra frowned and began to read all the documents. Half an hour later, her brows
relaxed.
Sofia couldn’t help but ask, “Cassandra, how is it? Can you cure her?”
Cassandra nodded. “Yes, but it’s a little tricky.” She glanced at Cassidy and said, “If you had told me six months ago, you would have been healthy now.”
Cassidy’s disease had entered stage IV, so the treatment would be much more difficult than before. In addition, her lung problem was indeed different, which would also make the treatment more difficult.
Even so, Cassandra knew that she could cure Cassidy. It was just that it would cost more
time.
“Why is it a bit tricky? We will cooperate with you!” Sofia immediately said. “I have a lot of precious herbs at home. As long as you need it, I can bring over whatever I have.”
Sofia was not rich, so she wanted to provide some herbs
Cassandra was stunned.
“You may not have the herbs I need,” said Cassandra. But she knew Omar had.
Cassandra planned to go back and get some.
“Cassandra, what can I do for you? My father has a 5–inch wild ginseng. Do you want it?” Sofia said eagerly as if she would be sad if Cassandra refused to accept it.
Cassandra’s eyes lit up as Sofia hoped. “How much do you want? I’ll transfer it to you.”
Cassandra had several wild ginsengs about 4 inches, but they were not as precious as a 5-

inch one.
“No, no need. I’ll go back and get it for you,” said Sofia, rubbing her fingers nervously. She then continued, “It’s just… Cassidy and I don’t have much money. Can you charge less for the consultation fee?”
Sofia was a little embarrassed and worried that Cassandra thought she wanted to make a deal with her. Sofia indeed wanted to exchange the ginseng to pay for a part of the consultation fee, but even if Cassandra refused to accept it, Sofia would still be willing to give the ginseng to Cassandra.
Cassandra was stunned. “Didn’t I say no consultation fee?”
Cassandra began to recall if she had said that.
“I know, but you know it is tricky to cure me. All the doctors said it was incurable, but you can do it. I know it will take a lot of medicine and energy. It is already your kindness that you don’t charge me the consultation fee, but I can’t let you spend money on my disease.” Cassidy lowered her head, feeling a little guilty.
Cassidy came from a rich family, and her father also loved her.
Her father would also buy her a luxurious car or a house, but he wouldn’t be willing to do so once it would cost so much money.

“I have all the herbs I need. Don’t worry. Your disease won’t cost me much. Besides, I provide a free medical consultation Don’t you know that?” Cassandra didn’t want Cassidy to feel stressed.
“Besides, someone will pay for your medical consultation. I’ll tell you later.” Cassandra didn’t plan to tell Cassidy for the time being for fear that Cassidy would stop it.
Cassidy was a little confused, but Sofia began to fill her mind with imagination. “Humph, the money should be paid by Cassidy’s father. Cassidy’s life is more important than money. If I get sick, my parents will definitely do everything to cure me.”
When Sofia left, she gave Cassandra a bank card and whispered, “Cassandra, there are 20 million dollars in it. I have saved them for so many years. I know that Cassidy’s disease is a bit troublesome. I will continue to save money in the future. Cassidy is my friend. Can

you take it?”
Sofia put it down on the table and left.
Cassandra was lost for words.
She held the bank card and didn’t know what to say.
Looking at the confused look in Cassandra’s eyes, Kenneth couldn’t help laughing, He said, “You have two reliable friends.”
Kenneth thought they had a sense of proportion and gratitude.
Even though they didn’t have much, they were willing to give them all as long as it could help their friends.
Kenneth then thought of his friendship with Kayden and John.
Kenneth also felt grateful to Kayden. If it were not for Kayden, Kenneth wouldn’t have had more chances to get along with Cassandra back then.
Cassandra nodded and put down the card. “I’ll give it back to her next time.”
“Honey, you’ve spent all your energy on your friends today. Shouldn’t you take some time to accompany me?”
