"Does your hospital have no competent doctors except for my sister? Why is it always my sister who
has to save the day? What are you other doctors doing?"
Alger and Celeste were drawn in by his raised voice, their eyes flicking towards him.
Even Serena seemed surprised. For as long as she could remember, she had never seen Clark lose
his composure.
Kenneth hadn't expected Clark's younger brother to be so temperamental. Clearly, the girl inside meant
a lot to him.
"Sir, we would never neglect our patients if we had even the slightest confidence in treating them. It's
just that the patient's condition is too complex. Let us communicate with Dr. Bella and see when she
can come over.
“My sister is not a doctor at your disposal! She hasn't received a dime from you! On what ground are
you calling her over? Don't you have other doctors? Can't anyone come up with a better solution?"
"I apologize, sir. I understand your feelings, but the patient is still in there. She can hear your voice."
Clark swallowed his rising anger once again.
“Please be patient. We will call other doctors to discuss this, said the male doctor, bowing slightly
before turning to leave.
Clark felt as if he had been struck by a bolt of bad luck. He was afraid he would lose Carol like last
time.
He couldn't imagine how he would feel if he lost Carol again.
Just then, Louisa clicked over in her high heels, giving his shoulder a hard smack.
"This is a hospital, stop yelling! Mr. and Mrs. Alger are watching, go over and explain the situation!"
“Mom."
“Hurry up!"
Remembering that Crystal was still in surgery, Clark rose to his feet, heading towards Alger, only to be
met with a punch to his face.
"Mr. Alger.” Celeste hurriedly stepped forward to intervene.
"My daughter is still in there fighting for her life, and we don't even know if she will live or die, but you're
worried about someone else!" Alger shook with rage.
Celeste fell silent, feeling that Clark was in the wrong. He owed them an explanation.
"Mr. and Mrs. Alger, it's my fault.” Clark admitted, "Here's what happened."
Carol's condition had worsened over the days. She was too weak to visit Logan and Taylor.
She didn't dare to video call them, fearing that they would worry if they saw her condition.
Logan and Taylor likely guessed something was wrong and wanted to visit their daughter at Clark's
place.
They begged their bodyguard leader to take them since they knew Clark's address.
The leader, unable to reach Carl or Ms. Bella's assistant Jack, called Clark. But at that time, Clark was
too preoccupied with Carol's deteriorating health to answer.
In the end, the bodyguard gave in to the elderly couple's pleas and took most of his team to
accompany them.
Initially, they had eight cars to protect them, but gradually, four cars disappeared.
"Why did four cars go missing?" Louisa couldn't help but ask.
“We didn't find out until later. The people in those four cars received news either about their family
members being kidnapped or their close friends being in danger. They didn't dare to reveal anything
and one by one, they left the convoy."
If they dared to say a word, their families would be gone!
