Chapter 384: That Phone Call

384 That Phone Call

The time was around 10:30 am. Sitting inside the room, Raymond was completely busy, scanning through multiple files. He was also shuffling between one file to another from time to time. He was scribbling information on his personal notepad so that he could refer to them later.

He had already gone through thirty-one files and there were twenty-seven files which were yet to be reviewed by him. He worked non-stop, reading non-stop and cross-referenced it with the data on his laptop. He was completely immersed in this work when suddenly he got a call on his phone.

"Hello"Find authorized novels in Webnovel?faster updates, better experience?

"Hello"

"Am I speaking with Mr. Raymond Walker?"

"Yes, may I know who is this calling and in which regard?"

Raymond asked seeing that unknown number and unknown voice.

"Ah !!! I am Dr. Nelson. You may not be knowing me. But I am ..."

"I know all about you. I have heard about your amazing research work from Dr. Oshana."

"Oh! So you know about me."

"Well, your reputation is quite a top-notch in your domain and given that you are one of the premier doctors in the field of research for Acquired Prosopagnosia. Plus my doctor always used to share my reports with you and has told me a lot about you."

"She did?"

Dr. Nelson asked all surprised because she had never shared any reports of Raymond with him and the first time that he had seen his report was at the medical conference in London.

"Oh, yes !!! I personally wanted to come to you and get my reports re-checked, so she saved me fro all that hassle and from redoing all the tests by sending the reports to you, and a big thanks to you for taking time out of your busy schedule and reviewing them."

Dr. Nelson stayed silent for a while and then remembered about the conversation that he had with Akira. He was wondering earlier about why she was stressing so much and was hellbent on getting the tests redone? He wondered as to why she wanted to keep Dr. Oshana in the dark about the whole thing?

But now, after hearing what Raymond had to say, he could sense that something wasn't right. And the way Akira had spoken with him, he knew that Raymond didn't have any clue about the whole thing.

So after a quick-thinking, he replied,

"Well yeah, your case is quite unique since you have no other injuries. So I wanted to conduct some more routine checks to see if there is something that we can do to expedite the natural healing process."

"Oh, ok. So you want me to be a part of a clinical trial?"

"No no, not like a trial. More like just conducting some routine tests and I would really be grateful if you do not tell Dr. Oshana about it."

"But why?"

"First, because she is very possessive about her patients and might freak out thinking that I am poaching you out."

Raymond chuckled after hearing his reason.

"And the second being the fact that I have lost some of the reports that she had sent and some other reports are like one or two months old and for my evaluation, I will be needing the latest ones. Hope that is ok with you? I mean, it will not take more than thirty minutes or so for all the tests to be conducted."

"Sure, let me know about the time and place."

"Well, I have two hours free slot today afternoon. Will, that be convenient for you? I mean I know its a short notice, but I hope that you can make it."

Raymond glanced at his watch and then said,

"Should be fine I guess !!!"

"Ok then. I will ask my receptionist to text you the details."

"Sure."

"Thanks for your help Mr. Raymond."

"Oh Please! Not at all. If anything good happens then I will the first one to be benefited from this. So if anyone should be thanking anyone, then that should be me."

"Ok then. See you in the afternoon."

Saying that Dr. Nelson disconnected the call and went into deep thought. He badly wanted to connect the missing link and figure out what was going on.

So he immediately texted Akira.

"My job is done. He is visiting me today afternoon at my hospital" - Dr. Nelson.

Sitting at the restaurant as Akira's phone buzzed, she picked it up and read the message. As soon as she read it, a smile etched on her face and she replied,

"I knew that you would be able to convince him. Thank you so much" - Akira

"That's fine, but is there something else that I should be knowing apart from all this Akira?" - Dr. Nelson

Akira read his message and realized that he had already gotten some hint.

"Tell me Akira. We need to talk" - Dr. Nelson

Akira read the message and took a deep breath.
