Lu Anran didn’t ask much in front of other people, but she coldly withdrew her hand. “You don’t need to worry about my business.”

Lin Rushuang suddenly displayed an aggrieved expression. “Anran, although I am not your biological mother, you were somehow brought up by me. Your father is currently in a coma. Even if you don’t want to see me again, as your stepmother, I can’t just watch you go astray. Otherwise, when I die many years later, I will not have the heart to face your father.”

After speaking, Lin Rushuang pretended to shed tears.

The other female doctors all looked at Lu Anran with disdain.

Lu Anran ignored their gazes and tried to suppress the rage in her heart. “Auntie Lin, I’m currently on duty. You should go back first. I will visit you after my shift.”

Anran gripped her phone tightly. She just happened to have something to ask.

However, Lin Rushuang continued shamelessly, “I know you still have feelings for that man, but no matter what, he is already married. You can’t be a mistress. Even if you don’t care about your reputation, you have to worry about your dad’s and your sister’s reputations.”

Lu Anran raised an eyebrow, and her facial expression also turned cold.

Lin Rushuang’s words sounded earnest, but, in reality, she unconsciously fanned the flames and confirmed that Lu Anran was seeing a married man.

For the sake of Lu Anna, she didn’t want things to be too ugly, Lin Rushuang’s words really infuriated her.

Lu Anran smiled coolly. “Dad has been in a coma for more than two years. According to the law, you can get a divorce now. If you go through the formalities with my father, you and your daughter will have nothing to do with the Lu family anymore. Therefore, you two won’t be burdened by me.”

Lin Rushuang’s expression suddenly stiffened when she heard Lu Anran’s reply, then she said tearfully, “Anran, I have taken care of you for more than 10 years. How can you force me to divorce your father when he’s ill? Old Lu…”

She was sobbing as if she had suffered horrific treatment from Lu Anran.

Suddenly, an unhappy voice came from behind her, “What’s the matter?”

Lu Anran saw Wang Qian, the head of the department.

Before she could speak, several female doctors rushed to answer first.

“Director Wang, Mrs. Lu came to kindly talk to Doctor Lu when she heard issues about her stepdaughter. But not only did she not appreciate her efforts, but she also made her cry.”

“The thing is, she herself behaved improperly, and Auntie Lin tried to dissuade her, but she actually forced Aunt Lin to divorce Professor Lu. That’s simply too overbearing.”

“Our hospital receives high-ranking officials from all walks of life. If someone with such morals stayed here, it would basically be ruining the reputation of our department and the entire hospital. It’s best to fire her immediately.”

“That’s enough.” Director Wang turned to look at Lu Anran, and his expression darkened. “Doctor Lu, can you explain what’s going on?”

Lu Anran smiled indifferently at Director Wang. As soon as she was about to speak, she heard Lin Rushuang’s voice speaking sadly, “Director Wang, it was my fault… I’ve been sick and couldn’t help. I let Anran take care of Old Lu too. It’s hard to avoid being upset… Please don’t blame her. I’m just begging you to persuade her not to force me to divorce Old Lu.”

She sounded like she was interceding for her, but she was actually alluding that she was tired of taking care of her father and was blaming her sick stepmother for not helping. Thus, out of resentment, she was forcing her to divorce him.

Lu Anran sneered when she looked at her hypocritical stepmother. “Auntie Lin, your acting is really good. If I didn’t know, I might have really believed that you love my father.”

With an innocent expression, Lin Rushuang looked at her with teary eyes. “You… What are you talking about?”

Lu Anran frowned and said, “If you don’t want people to know, you shouldn’t have come here. I cared about my father’s reputation, so I didn’t want to let others know about some unpleasant things. However, since Auntie Lin insisted on causing a scene at my workplace and in front of my boss, no less, I won’t care about reputation anymore.”

Lin Rushuang was startled.

What did Lu Anran mean?

Did she know that she was having an affair? How did she find out?

She was careful every time they met. She was always fully disguised in sunglasses and a mask. She couldn’t have been recognized.

Was she blackmailing her?
