Queenie's statement made the elderly lady tremble with rage. After all, she was there to seek treatment, not to be insulted. The next second, she got out of the hospital bed shakily, put on her shoes, and was set to leave.
“Ma'am, we're not done here. Where are you going?” Arielle ignored Queenie at this point. When she saw that the elderly lady was going to leave, she dashed forward to stop her.
Expectedly, the elderly lady had a temper as well.
She slapped Arielle's hand away forcefully, pointed at Queenie, and yelled angrily, “I'm not here to be insulted; I'm here to seek treatment. I don't need doctors like the two of you. I don't care if I don't get treatment, even if it meant that I will die. At least, I can preserve my dignity.”
She begin heading out again after her speech.
Queenie rolled her eyes at the elderly lady and murmured, “Hurry up and leave then. I have no desire to entertain patients like you. After all, there's nothing to treat! Just go home and wait to deliver the baby.”
Deep down, she was enraptured.
It's a good thing the elderly lady is leaving. Cor can get me another patient anytime, just like how he found twenty over patients previously. There's another patient left and it would be perfect for us!
“Queenie, just keep your mouth shut if you have nothing good to say!” Arielle glared at Queenie with her piercing eyes. She's way out of line!
Queenie, however, was not the least scared of her. She pointed at the elderly lady and snarled, “Aren't you leaving? We'll get another patient after you, so hurry up and leave! Stop hogging the spot!”
