"Y-You win this time!" Zayne took a step back before retorting hoarsely, "But just you wait. I'm going to tell my father about this!"
Immediately, he hightailed it for the stairs, and in just a few seconds, he disappeared from Kingsley's sight.
Kingsley's eyes glinted dangerously.
Getting backup?
Sure, if Jeffred has the guts to come and mess with me, then I don't mind pulling him down a peg!
Just then, the doors to the surgical theater slid open. A doctor who was still in his surgical gear came over to Kingsley and asked, "Are you the patient's next of kin?"
"Yes."
Although Kingsley knew that Keene had not been severely injured, he could not avoid feeling anxious.
"We have removed the bullet from her body," the doctor reported after removing his mask. "And because the patient had been brought to the hospital in time, she did not lose much blood. Therefore, her vitals are good and everything is fine now. She will need to stay in the hospital for a short period of observation, but she is well on her way to making a full recovery."
Kingsley finally could heave a sigh of relief. "Thank you so much, doctor. I'll go and make the arrangements for her stay right n

Kingsley had not seen Alice since his last trip to this hospital.
He had been wanting to find the time to give her a surprise, but other things kept cropping up.
However, he felt the need to inform Alice about Keene's situation after today's incident.
To his surprise, the doctor was startled by his question. "Are you talking about the cardiothoracic surgeon, Dr. Alice Kramer? She resigned over malpractice!"
"Resigned over malpractice?" Kingsley frowned. "What did she do? Why would she resign because of malpractice?"
The Alice that he knew was an upright and vigilant person.
What kind of mistake would she have made to be forced to resign?
"I heard that someone injured Dr. Lynch, so Dr. Lynch's family wanted to sue the person for intentional injury, but Dr. Kramer voluntarily resigned in exchange for getting them to not pursue the matter further."
Kingsley's eyes began to look a little chilly once he heard what the doctor said.
"I see. Thank you for telling me, doctor."
"Not at all. The nurses will be sending the patient to the ward in a little while, so once you're done with the admittance procedures, you can go straight to her
