“Alright.”
Derek turned to look at Hayden, “Hayden, I got in the ambulance and went to the hospital with Serina last night so I didn’t see what was going on inside. Did you go in?”
“Yes, I did. At that time, Ms. Marco and Zoe were both lying on the ground. Zoe was shot in the head. Ms. Marco might have been frightened and fainted.” Hayden said.
“Fainted?” Derek muttered.
“Is there anything wrong, Mr. Darion?”
“How’s the scene? Still sealed?”
“The police took care of that place and took some photos. They also cordoned the place off, but I don’t know how it is now. If the case is over, the cordon should be canceled now. Mr. Darion, do you want to take a look?”
“No hurry. Serina is still in the hospital, and Cherry is in a bad condition. I can’t leave them for the time being. Send someone to guard that place. Don’t let anyone get close and keep the scene intact.”
“Alright, I’ll do it right away.”
After settling all this, Derek returned to Serina’s ward V501.
Room V503 was Marco’s ward.
Marco sat on the bed with a cold look in her eyes. Derek’s reaction just now had really disappointed her.
She had thought that if Derek knew that she was still alive, Derek would come to see her immediately. Even if he could not be sure whether it was her, he should come to check as soon as possible.
However, he did not.
She had thought that he would be moved when he heard how she had escaped death, but he did not!
He did not even ask how she had been in the United States. It was not hard to imagine how difficult it was for a girl to live in a strange country.
But he did not ask any questions.
Even though he didn’t love her, shouldn’t he be a little guilty?
However, she didn’t even sense the slightest bit of guilt!
Then she heard a knock at the door.
Marco recovered herself and looked at the door. “Please come in.”
A nurse walked in. “Ms. Marco, I’m really sorry. This ward is actually reserved. But because of the urgent situation yesterday, the on-duty staff put you here…”
Marco smiled gently, “If you want to change me to another ward, just say it. Don’t beat about the bush.”
The nurse was embarrassed and smiled awkwardly. She had no choice but to do what the higher-ups had told her to do.
“Ms. Marco, the ward upstairs is also a VIP room, and the lighting is much better. So, if you are okay with it…” The nurse was still polite.
“It doesn’t matter. Whichever the room is fine.” Marco stood up and said.
The nurse was relieved, “Okay, Ms. Marco. I’ll take care of the paperwork. You can go to your new room now. It’s Room 605.”
Marco smiled and nodded. Then she followed the nurse upstairs.
Marco soon realized that Derek did not want her to meet Serina at all.
Usually, patients on different floors could still meet because they would go up and down.
But the layout of the VIP wards was different. There was a partition wall between Room 604 and Room 605. That was to say, patients on the two sides of the wall used different stairs and elevators.
Therefore, even if she went downstairs, it would be difficult for her to meet Serina.
Marco smiled gently. It didn’t matter. They would meet in the end.
In Room V501.
Derek and Cherry were not here because Derek took Cherry to another room for psychological treatment. Cherry was in a bad condition. She had been crying. She was indeed frightened.
Blueberry was napping. She and Serina had just finished lunch.
Serina, who had slept for a long time, was not sleepy at all and was playing on her phone with her uninjured hand.
After a while, two nurses came in.
“Mrs. Lambert, this is your last IV bottle today. The needle can be removed after you finish this bottle.” The nurse said amiably.
“I will go crazy if I continue to be bedridden.”
Serina seldom got sick. Even after giving birth, she had only been on a drip for one day.
Because the IV bottle was almost over, the nurse did not leave.
“Mrs. Lambert, you are really brave. You are not afraid of guns.”
The nurse’s eyes were full of admiration.
“Well, you will know when you become a mother.” Serina looked at Blueberry, who was sleeping soundly in bed.
“Yes, mothers are great. They can do anything for their children.”
Another nurse cut in.
“Mrs. Lambert, you are really lucky! You may have to thank another young lady. Speaking of which, the young lady is really brave. She fought the bad guy even though she had never met you!”
“Yes, I heard about it too. I heard that the young lady is very young.”
The words of the two nurses confused Serina.
“What young lady?” Serina asked.
“Mrs. Lambert, don’t you know? A young lady saved you yesterday! Otherwise, who knows what this suspect would do!”
“Mrs. Lambert, you have to thank this young lady.”
“There is no need for Mrs. Lambert to do this. Mr. Darion has already thanked that young lady. Mr. Darion went to the lady’s ward in person yesterday.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Mr. Darion is also very kind. It is said that the young lady killed the suspect accidentally during the fight and Mr. Darion plans to hire a lawyer to defend the young lady.”
Serina didn’t know what they were talking about at all!
Serina smiled awkwardly, “I passed out so I don’t know what happened after that.”
“It doesn’t matter, Mrs. Lambert. After all, you are injured. I’m sure that young lady can understand.”
“Is that young lady injured?” Serina asked with concern.
“She’s fine. She has some minor injuries. She also fainted at that time but it was caused by shooting at a close distance. So, it was nothing serious.” The nurse replied.
“I see. Which ward is she in then?”
“She’s in room 605 upstairs. She was in room V503, which is also reversed for Mr. Darion. I don’t know why, but he suddenly moved the lady upstairs today.” The nurse was quite confused.
“Then I’ll make some time to pay her a visit.”
