“Which doctor would joke about such a thing with the patient’s family? The donor did indeed promise seriously to come over, but they have a request they hope you would cooperate with.”
Bethan paused for a while and immediately asked, “
What request? Will I be able to do it? W-What do you need me to do?”
Looking at how nervous Bethan was, Rowena shook her head.
“It’s simple.”
“The donor hopes that you and your relatives would stop finding out their identity. Whether it be now or after the bone marrow transplant.”
Then, Rowena patted Bethan on the shoulders. “Can you do that?”
Bethan furrowed her brows. “That simple?”
She thought that the donor would pull out suddenly because they have encountered an unsolvable problem.
Bethan speculated that it was most probably financial problems. She was even ready to borrow another lump sum from Bonnie.
However, Bethan did not expect that the request that the donor came up with was just to forbid her to look for the donor?
“Yes.”
Perhaps, Rowena has long guessed that Bethan would react this way. Rowena nodded.
“The donor already knows that you previously tried to investigate them, so this is a warning.”
Bethan paused for a while. “Okay, I understand.”
Bethan only wanted to find the donor so she could do something to express her appreciation.
Turns out, not only did she find the wrong person, she nearly made a gross mistake.
Since the donor has already requested that, Bethan would no longer continue looking for the donor.
Seeing Bethan agreeing to the request, Rowena let out a sigh of relief.
“That’s great. Go back home. Nigel’s surgery is tomorrow. All you need to do as his mother is to properly keep him accompanied.”
Bethan nodded before turning around and leaving.
When she returned to the ward, her two children were still planning the next day in disappointment.
Bethan excitedly rushed over to hug them. “Problem solved. The surgery will go on as usual tomorrow! “
Nigel and Nellie looked at each other in surprise. They were so excited that they were rendered speechless.
In the end, Nellie suggested for Bethan to buy ice cream to celebrate.
Of course, it was only ice cream for Bethan and her. Nigel had to prepare for the surgery the next day, he could not simply eat any type of food.
Bethan agreed and went to the supermarket downstairs in a good mood.
Not only did she buy Nellie ice cream, she even got Bonnie to help search for the best computer and keyboard in Banyan City. She planned to give Nigel a surprise after the surgery the next day.
Just when Bethan was going back to the hospital entrance from the supermarket with ice cream in her hand, a black Maseratee flew past her.
Finally, the car stopped by the entrance of the hospital.
The car door opened and Brettley came down from the car. He went around the car and carried Fiona, who was in a white dress, up.
He was still wearing the hospital gown that Bethan put on him when taking care of him for the past few days.
Also, when Brettley was carrying Fiona, she could clearly see the sweat on Brettley’s forehead.
Bethan narrowed her eyes and sneered. Brettley would really do anything for Fiona.
He had been unconscious for the past three days. He was still a patient, yet he still pretended as if nothing had happened and carried Fiona down the car.
Bethan did not believe that Fiona’s sickness would be more serious than Brettley, who had passed out for three days.
Just when Bethan was standing in the distance looking at them with the ice cream in her hands, Fiona turned her head around.
Their eyes met.
Fiona smiled at Bethan provocatively. Then, she obediently and gently looked at Brettley who was carrying her.
“Brettley, why don’t you let me down. I can walk on my own. You just got better, don’t tire yourself out.”
Brettley replied in a low and calm voice, “I’m fine. Your body is the most important thing.”
Then, Brettley strode into the hospital with Fiona in his arms.
“Why did you stay at home if you’re sick instead of coming to the hospital? You make me worried for you Bethan stood in the same spot and looked at Brettley and Fiona leaving. She sneered.
Brettley truly brought it upon himself.
When Bethan brought the ice cream back to the ward, Nigel was already asleep.
Nigel was very understanding. To not let others worry for him, he has long tucked himself in bed and fell asleep.
Bethan placed the ice cream in front of Nellie. She opened one and passed it to Nellie.
“Mommy, Dr. Rowena said that she was looking for you just now.”
Nellie obediently accepted the ice cream from Bethan. She ate and said, “She asked you to look for her once you return. I think it has something to do with Nigel’s surgery tomorrow.”
Once Bethan heard it had something to do with Nigel, she did not dare waste another second. She got up and headed out to Rowena’s office.
Turns out, Rowena was not at her office. The intern doctor got Bethan to sit down.
“A patient just arrived just now. Dr. Rowena went to attend to them. Please wait for a while.”
Bethan nodded. She sat on the chair waiting while sending messages to Bonnie and Anne.
She thought that Rowena would return soon, but she waited for half an hour.
In the end, Bethan gave up waiting. Once she inquired which room Rowena was in, Bethan took her phone and went to look for her.
However, Bethan did not expect that Rowena would be in Fiona’s ward.
When Bethan knocked on the door and entered, Rowena was checking up on Fiona in the bed.
Fiona was like an empress in a period drama, lazily lying on the bed. One hand was being checked upon by the doctor while holding Brettley’s hand with the other hand.
“Dr. Rowena…”
Bethan knocked on the door. She wanted to say something when she saw the scene before her.
Bethan was first shocked, then she came to a realization and smiled mockingly.
She almost forgot.
Brettley had once sent Rowena to Orchard Manor to become Fiona’s personal doctor.
At that moment, Fiona was sick, the doctor that was checking up on her should be Dr. Rowena too.
However…
Bethan looked at Fiona’s actions at that moment as well as Brettley next to her. She could not help but laugh mockingly.
The three of them in the ward looked up when they heard Bethan’s voice.
Dr. Rowena paused for a while before turning around to look at Bethan. She smiled rather embarrassingly.
“I ‘m sorry, Nigel’s mother. I thought I would finish things up here quickly. I made you wait and even come to look for me. Actually, it’s nothing much. It’s just that…”
Rowena turned to look at Brettley before turning back to smile at Bethan.
“It’s about the medical bills. Mr. Morrison actually paid for Nigel’s surgery beforehand, but because he was unconscious, the staff on shift that day made a mistake, that was why it was not registered in the account. I looked for you because I wanted to return the medical bills that you paid today back to you.”
Bethan furrowed her brows.
