Chapter 236
In the medical office
“Have you checked the surveillance cameras? What exactly went wrong?”
“Uh, I’ve already checked the surveillance footage but didn’t find anything wrong.”
That’s weird. How could the dosage of the tocolytic agent suddenly go wrong?” The attending doctor of the Gynecology Department could not help but lose his temper.
“Sir, is there a chance that Ms. Haynes is too weak, which has caused the signs of a miscarriage?”
“No, I don’t think so! Things did turn much better a few days ago! But it suddenly happened today without no signs. The only reason is that she didn’t get sufficient dosages!
“We don’t allow anything like this to happen here in our hospital! It might be fine if it were other patients, but you all know who this Ms. Haynes is!
“It’s not your first day at work. How could you make such a stupid mistake?”
The head nurse looked deeply wronged. “I did take four dosages of the tocolytic agent. I swear I did!
“I’m sure I didn’t make a mistake!”
Another doctor added, “Did someone change the medicine?
“Who’s been in the pharmacy?”
The nurse named Hazel suddenly remembered something. “If memory serves, only Doctor
came here!”
“Oh, well…” Kensley looked nervous and mumbled.
“Did you touch the medicine?” The attending doctor put on a straight face.
Kensley panicked and stammered, ‘I… I might have accidentally put the wrong medicine!”
The attending doctor was even more furious to hear that. “Damn it! How could you make such a stupid mistake?”
“I was neglectful and careless. I promise I won’t make the same mistake again!
“Please give me a chance to correct my mistake! It won’t happen again.”
“We’re doctors. Even the slightest mistake can cause medical negligence and get people killed! And you do know who it is in
that ward!
“If anything happens to her, all of us will be doomed!”
“Sorry. It was my fault! I’ll be more careful next time.”
The attending doctor thought it over and decided what happened today could not go public. If word got out, he would probably lose his job!
“You’ll get a written warning, and your year–end bonus will be deducted! Confess your sins to God!”
“Understood, sir!” Kensley’s heart was pounding!
It was close! She almost gave herself away. Fortunately, the attending doctor did not get to the bottom of it!
Soon enough!
Chapter 236
Bruce made it to the hospital as fast as he could after receiving the news.
“Doctor, how is she?”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Everett! Ms. Haynes has stabilized!” The attending doctor of the Gynecology Department comforted Bruce, not daring to tell Bruce they had made a mistake about the medicine!
Bruce’s face sank. “Cheer up, all of you! If anything happens to Joanna, you know the consequences!”
“Got it. Mr. Everett!”
Bruce said nothing else but went to the ward to check on Joanna.
In the ward.
Joanna was lying weakly in bed, and a servant was waiting on her.
“Joanna, how are you feeling?
“Are you feeling terrible?”
Joanna wore a breathing mask and blinked weakly!
Bruce was worried. He caressed her head and comforted her gently, “It’s okay. I’m here for you, and everything will be fine!”
Joanna rolled her eyes and closed them again!
“Mr. Everett, Mrs. Everett just had surgery. She must have a good rest now!”
“Okay!” Bruce didn’t say anything else and left the ward.
He had to go outside and smoke a cigarette to calm himself down!
As soon as he went out, he saw Roxanne coming over with a servant.
The servant was holding a bunch of flowers.
Roxanne put on a smile immediately when she saw Bruce. “Hi, Bruce!”
There was one good thing about her!
No matter how angry Bruce was with her, she could still smile as if nothing had happened.
“What are you doing here?” Bruce frowned and took the cigarette out of his mouth.
“I heard Joanna is in hospital, so I’m here to visit her!”
Bruce said coldly. “We’re good here. You don’t have to come. Just go home!”
After being told off, Roxanne pouted and said, “Bruce, have you forgotten that Joanna has pissed Grandma off and caused her death?
“Of course, I won’t hate Joanna if you don’t…”
Bruce interrupted her abruptly. “Enough! Shut up and go home!”
Roxanne choked in anger and said indignantly. “Bruce, I know you care about Joanna!
“But don’t you think you’ve gone too far? You’re caring too much about Joanna now. Grandma would be so disappointed if
she knew it!”
Chapter 236
Bruce couldn’t take it anymore. “I’ve told you to shut up!”
Roxanne’s softened her tone a little. She shook Bruce’s arm and said, “Bruce, please don’t be mad at me!
“You’ve always been tolerant of Joanna. Why are you so mad at me? Joanna is carrying your child. So am I!
“I don’t expect you to treat me the way you treat Joanna, but Bruce, can you please show me more concern and treat me
better?
“Or you think Joanna is more important than Grandma?”
Bruce frowned tightly, and his chest was bumping up and down in anger.
Joanna had caused the death of his grandma. Undoubtedly, he was furious!
But she was pregnant with his child. How could he bear to torture her?
“Mind your own business! Stay out of it!”
“Bruce, you’re too soft–hearted! That’s why Joanna showed no respect to Grandma, and that’s how Grandma passed away!”
“I’ve told you not to mention it again!”
“Fine. I won’t mention it again! If you forgive Joanna, who am I to blame her?” Roxanne’s eyes were filled with tears.
She kept reminding Bruce of the cause of Margaret’s death, which had broken his heart.
Roxanne knew Margaret was the most important person to Bruce. So she had to remind him at all times.
And Joanna had pissed Margaret off and caused her death!
She did not believe that Bruce would have forgotten it all so fast!
Bruce didn’t bother to listen to any more of her words. He turned around and returned to the ward.
Joanna had already woken up and heard the argument outside. “Who’s out there?”
“Never mind. It’s nothing!”
Joanna looked at Bruce and saw the terrible look on his face. She guessed that Roxanne was here to make a scene again!
At the thought of this, Joanna suddenly came up with something.
Did Roxanne have something to do with the accident?
As they were talking, Cora knocked on the door and came in.
“Good day, Mr. Everett. I’m here to visit Miss Haynes!”
“Okay! I get going now!” Bruce left in frustration.
“Cora!”
“How are you?
“How’s the company been doing recently?”
“Mr. Hughes is in charge of the Haynes Group now. Everything is going well!”
Joanna asked nervously, “What about the factory?”
“Mr. Grimm is in charge of the factory! No worries, Miss Haynes!”
“That’s good. I’m relieved!”
“One more thing!”
“Go ahead!”
“Miss Haynes, you remember you told me to find that Mrs. Maxwell? We’ve found her!”
“Really?”
“Yes, she’s back in her hometown Greene Town and has lived in the countryside ever since!”
Joanna thought it over. “Bring her to Greyport. Find a place for her to stay first. I’ll pay for all the expenses.”
“Okay, Miss Haynes!
“If nothing else, I’ll leave for my work!”
