Theo asked earnestly, âWhoâs this Ms. Howard?â
Ellinor felt that Theo was missing the point and handed him the phone, âAnswer it, donât let anything go wrong!â
Theo looked at her deeply, then slowly put the phone to his ear.
After hearing the cry for help on the phone, Theoâs calm face suddenly turned tense. He stood up quickly and asked sternly. âWhere are you? Okay, just stay there and donât move, 171 be right there!â
After hanging up the phone, Theo hurriedly left but suddenly stopped to look at Ellinorâ¦
Ellinor shrugged nonchalantly. âGo ahead, Iâll be fine on my own!â
Theo frowned in complexity, âBe good, Iâll be back soon!â
Upon saying this, he quickly leftâ¦.
Ellinor stood there in a daze for a while, as if she could hear her motherâs voice from years ago at the hospital telling her. âBe good; Mommy will be back soon!
And then, her mother never came backâ¦
An hour passed Ellinor finished her cake and watched some videos on her phone Theo who said heâd be back soon still hadnât returned.
Had something happened to him?
She didnât even know where Patriciaâs ward was.
Ellinor had slept too much during the day and couldnât sleep now. She thought momentarily and got up from her bed to find that man.
She was residing in the VIP area of the hospitalâs inpatient department, where each room was a separate highâend ward. It was quite peaceful, and most people were resting since it was already night The hallway was empty, and Ellinor slowly walked towards the nurseâs station to ask about Ms.
Howardâs wardâ¦
Before she reached the nursesâ station, she saw from a distance that police officers were checking the surveillance cameras.
The police seemed to have copied the needed surveillance content and left the nurseâs station. A doctor who looked higher ranked escorted the police to the elevator.
The police waved his hand, saying, âAll right, no need to see me off. Thanks for your cooperation todayâ
The doctor also politely said, âItâs our duty! You guys are working late, you must be tired!â
âEh, weâre serving the people!â
The police left.
Ellinor heard the nurses in the station discussing âHow terrifying I didnât expect there to be a pervert in our hospital!â
âPerverts are everywhere; we all need to be careful!â
âThis pervert is really bold, stalking Ms. Howard in room 302, heâs got some nerve!â
âPeople like that should be severely punished once caught âRight, just now, when I went to room 302 to take Ms. Howardâs temperature, she looked pale from fright and hadnât recovered yet. Sheâs been crying in her boyfriendâs arms. so pitiful!â
âIs her boyfriend handsome? Is it the same guy who spent a fortune last night to buy the LED ad on Century Bank at Trent River, expressing his love to Ms. Howard all day?â
âHandsome? Heâs stunning! More handsome than any movie star; I didnât dare to look at him too much.
Iâd go weak in the kneesâ¦â
âHaha, why would you go weak in the knees? Do you have a crush on him?â
