After Queenie stormed off in a haze of rage, she found herself growing suspicious. She quickly backtracked to trail after Arielle and Teddy in secret.
Since the hospital was packed today, Queenie blended in seamlessly with the crowd as she followed the duo to the eleventh floor. Finally, they stopped in front of a ward.
Was one of Arielle's friends admitted to the hospital? Is Vinson the patient?
Queenie lingered outside the ward for a few moments before she decided to seek answers from a nearby nurse.
“Although the patient is in a VIP ward, there are no doctors assigned to him?” Queenie asked suspiciously.
Is Arielle the patient's doctor?
“That's right.” The nurse nodded. “There are no doctors attending the patient.
Nevertheless, the hospital director visits the ward every day. We aren't allowed to enter the ward without permission too. Mr. Nightshire isn't the patient. Instead, the patient is a young maiden from the countryside. However, Mr. Nightshire's men did drop by once. Mr. Nightshire's assistant was the one who handled her admission procedures.”
Queenie wracked her brain and came up with an idea.
“Could you give me the patient's details? I might be able to offer some help,” Queenie asked.
The naive nurse did not give Queenie's question a second thought. She was under the impression that Queenie was merely trying to help the patient.
She clapped her hands in delight. “Dr. Mill, it would be great if you are willing to help out. The patient has been diagnosed with lung cancer. I've seen her records; it looks like her lung cancer has progressed to its later stages. Hence, her recovery might be difficult. But, if you help her out, I'm sure her chances of recovery will increase greatly!”
Upon hearing the words “lung cancer,” Queenie was taken aback.
She gathered the patient's report file and returned to her office.
After Queenie read through the reports, she finally had a solid grasp of the entire situation.
The couple was a pair of workers to whom Henrick owed wages. Arielle must have wanted to impress Vinson. Hence, she admitted the woman here and personally attended to her.
It must be why this patient wasn't assigned a doctor.
