Chapter 438


    However, Luna seemed to avoid his gaze.


    “Yes, this is the patient I was telling you about. He lost his memory and couldn''t remember his name,


    so I call him Harold. Could you take him for a full body check-up, Mr. Tawle?”


    Luna made the introductions.


    “Oh, just drop the formalities. You were once the director of arge hospital in Dellmoor and are much


    more capable than I am. Just call me Johnny, will you? Your patient is in good hands,” Johnny said,


    feigning displeasure at how Luna addressed him.


    Luna became embarrassed.


    “Bad news, Mr. Tawle. The patient in ward eighteen is burning up again. Please hurry over!”


    As Luna stood in ufortable silence, a nurse''s voice sounded over his walkie-talkie.


    Johnny''s expression turned grim at the nurse''s words.


    “What''s wrong?” Luna asked, puzzled, upon noticing the change in Johnny''s expression.


    “An elderly man was sent here this morning, and his high feverisn''t going down. We managed to bring


    his temperature down just now, but it''s spiked again. Since you''re an expert in internal medicine, would


    you minding with me to take a look? Afterward, I''ll make sure your patient receives a thorough


    check-up. How does that sound?


    ” Johnny exined, looking troubled. Upon recalling Luna''s tenure as the director of internal medicine


    in Dellmoor, he quickly requested her help.


    “The patient''s life is at stake. Grab me a coat.”


    Luna agreed to help without demur. After donning the coat Johnny brought, she followed him to attend


    to the feverish elderly patient.


    As Harold wasn''t familiar with the ce, he followed them.


    On their way over, Johnny briefed Luna in detail on the elderly man''s situation.


    Soon, the trio arrived at ward eighteen.


    It was a deluxe ward. Luna was startled by the crowd outside upon their arrival, as they were all big


    shots.


    Aside from mayors and secretaries, heads of various departments were also present.


    Luna''s curiosity about the elderly patient''s identity was roused.


    Suddenly, she understood why Johnny looked so worried.


    If something happens to somebody that important, this hospital would be doomed.


    As the patient''s attending physician, Johnny might really face the risk of his career being destroyed.


    “Coming through, sirs!” Johnny said politely to the group obstructing the entrance.


    Hearing Johnny''s voice, all of them turned around. A man who exuded a powerful aura wore a scowl


    and chided Johnny, “What is going on here, Mr. Tawle? Can''t you even treat a simple case of fever?


    This hospital should just shut down if anything happens to Professor Condle!”


    As the secretary of the top leader of Xenhall, he was there on behalf of the top leader to visit the


    patient.


    “Of course, we''ll treat him. Rest assured, sir. We will do our best to cool the patient''s fever down.”


    Bowing his head, Johnny promised to do his best before leading Luna and Harold into the ward.


    Luna and Johnny were once again surprised upon entering the ward and getting a good look at the


    people inside,


    Johnny was astonished to see the hospital director, Wilson Miles, his deputy, and a group of other


    professors and specialists.


    They were conducting a group consultation in the ward.


    Johnny had never encountered such a scene before.

    It was in that the elderly man lying on the bed was no ordinary person.


    Luna, on the other hand, was surprised to see the patient''s family member who was seated at his


    bedside.


    It was none other than Bill, who had caused trouble at her clinic earlier.


    What a small world!


    The elderly patient on the bed was the same one who came to her for a two-day prescription yesterday,


    right before Harold was sent to the clinic.


    She examined the old man previously and found that his fever was caused by an inmmation of his


    tonsils, so she prescribed him some medication to cool the fever down and ease the inmmation.


    Now, it seems like the issue is even moreplicated than that.


    The upants in the ward also noticed the trio''s entry.


    Astonished by the appearance of Harold and Luna, Bill pointed at Luna and shouted, “She is the quack


    doctor who caused my father''s persistent fever!”
