Had someone set Hilliard up?
How dare Mrs.
Turner accuse Hilliard of medical malpractice?
Cyrus was also confused.
Hilliard frowned.
âOkay.
Iâll go take a look.

When she saw them, Presley ran over to greet Hilliard.
âJennifer was practicing walking when she suddenly fainted.
Sheâs still unconscious.
Iâm worried and I had no choice but to contact you.

Hilliardâs face was stern.
He nodded slightly before opening the door.
Lucinda followed, wanting to look in on Jennifer, but Presley stopped her.
With a flattering smile, Presley said, âMiss Ross, itâs better for Mr.
Simmons to go in alone.
Youâre not a doctor, so you can be of no help.
Why donât you talk to me instead? We can have some tea together.

Lucinda frowned.

Simmons really have a tacit understanding.
Youâ¦â
What was Presley trying to imply?
Lucinda kept her expression neutral.
âWe are just friends.
