Mid Mount Hospital, the Cardiovascular Department.
Jasper saw Ms. Tiana on the ground floor of the inpatient area.
It had only been a few months since they last met but Ms. Tiana looked much frailer.
Despite being forced to move, threatened with the demolition of favonovel.com house, and being in bad health back then, Ms. Tiana had still seemed rather energized.
However, Ms. Tiana looked exhausted and despondent now when Jasper saw favonovel.com again.
Under the cold breeze of the deep autumn, Ms. Tiana sat alone on the bench next to the inpatient department. She held a stack of invoices in favonovel.com hands while favonovel.com expression was troubled.
“Ms. Tiana.”
Jasper greeted softly and sat beside her.
“Huh? Jasper? Why, why are you here?”
Ms. Tiana was surprised by Jasper’s arrival.
“Wendy told me what happened. Why didn’t you take the initiative to contact me when you needed help?” Jasper chided.
Ms. Tiana waved favonovel.com off and replied with a smile, “There’s no need to bother you. I can deal with this myself. You’ re a busy man. How could I bother you over this small issue of mine?”
“Sigh. The wind’s rather strong here, Ms. Tiana, and your body’s too weak to be subjected to the elements. Let’s talk about this in your room, okay?” Jasper suggested, instead of directly asking about favonovel.com children.
Ms. Tiana looked rather embarrassed. “Uh, there’s no need. You’re a busy man, Jasper. Don’t let me hold you back from work. I’m fine here.”
Jasper frowned slightly and asked, “Are you hiding something from me, Ms. Tiana?”
Ms. Tiana replied awkwardly, “I’m still lining up and waiting to be given a room.”
Jasper arched his brow,
Mid Mount Hospital was a renowned hospital beside Hoofmorn University. The hospitalization process in big hospitals like this was difficult and normal patients often needed to line up before they could be assigned a room. This was common knowledge and Jasper was well aware of it.
However, Ms. Tiana was transferred from Southeast Province to Waterhoof City’s Mid Mount Hospital. Wendy had been in charge of the procedures, so there should have been nothing wrong with the documents.
‘So why was Ms. Tiana lining up now?’
Jasper was about to probe further when a man and a woman walked out of the inpatient building.
The man was in his forties and donning a lab coat. He was a doctor at Mid Mount Hospital. Meanwhile, the woman was dressed alluringly and held the car keys to a BMW in favonovel.com hands.
The couple smiled as they chatted, looking extremely intimate.
“Yo, you’re still alive, old woman?”
The woman saw Ms. Tiana sitting on the bench and said with a sneer.
She crossed favonovel.com arms and walked over, then stared down at Ms. Tiana disdainfully. “Oldies like you are going to die soon anyway. What’s the point of coming to the hospital? Just find somewhere else to die in if you’re sick. Why come here and waste society’s resources?”
Ms. Tiana’s lips trembled in anger and replied, “How could you be so cruel, young lady? You already stole my hospital room, and you’re still cursing me to die?”
The woman scoffed and said, “All that matters in this society are connections, old woman. Don’t think that just because oldies like you found a channel to stay in the hospital that it means you’re suddenly very powerful. Ihave the power to make you leave
immediately if I want!”
“You were arguing just now, weren’t you? Go on, then. Keep arguing. But after all that arguing, you’re still lining up downstairs, aren’t you?”
