Helen found a seat in the corridor and sat down.
She was almost 26 years old and she had been pursued by countless men after graduating from medical school years ago.
However, no man who could ever make her fall head over heels.
There was a man who caught her attention during her internship. His name was Simon and they were from the same school. They got to know each other better after being posted to the same hospital.
On normal days, they would often interact with each other for work. Soon, it escalated to them having lunch together. During festivals and holidays, they would give each other gifts. When they had nothing to do, they would also go to the movies together.
At that time, she thought that they were dating.
Until one day, she saw Simon together with the hospital dean's daughter, Mathilda.
She saw him brushing Mathilda's hair behind her ear gently and complimenting that her dress was particularly stunning that day.
It was at that moment she realized that what they had was just mere flirtation. It was never anything official.
Ever since then, she had never fallen in love again.
Helen sighed. She brushed away the thought of that indifferent man's face which had appeared briefly in her mind.
She then heard Doctor Leon's voice coming from behind her. "How's it going?"
Helen woke up from her reverie and stood up.
"Dad, you're finally here. The doctors did an emergency treatment for Mrs. Granger just now. She is now stable. However, the test report has not been released yet. President Granger is in there with her now!"
Doctor Leon nodded. He was not in a hurry to go in since Amos was inside. He handed his things to Helen and said, "I'll go and have a look at the report."
Doctor Leon worked as a specialist in the hospital on regular days. Therefore, he was familiar with many people there.
Helen only realized that it was already bright outside after Doctor Leon left.
Amos came out of the room just as she was about to head into the ward and check on Eudora. He was holding his phone in his hand and he was muttering something.
"Follow up with that case for the next few days. I have an urgent issue to attend to here, so I can't leave at this moment. If you have any questions, contact me immediately..."
Coincidentally, Doctor Leon had come back at this moment. Helen asked hurriedly.
"Dad, what's wrong?"
Doctor Leon looked sullen. He looked at the halfclosed ward door and walked in. Seeing Doctor
Leon's expression, Helen was a little uneasy. She hurried and followed him in.
Eudora had just woken up when Doctor Leon went into the ward.
She got up and smiled. "Doctor Leon, you're here so early."
Doctor Leon nodded and scrutinized her face briefly, "How are you feeling?"
Eudora felt much better after taking a nap, but she still felt this dull pain in her head.
"I'm fine, but I'm having a little headache. Could it be because I've slept too much?"
Doctor Leon's expression sank. He continued saying, "Mrs. Granger, you didn't sleep too much. You were poisoned!"
Eudora froze for a moment. "Poisoned? How is that possible?"
Her meal had all been carefully prepared by Amos. His level of attentiveness is definitely out of question. In fact, it was almost excessive.
