Freya waved her hand and said, “No, it’s not that. Maybe it’s food poisoning. You go and drive quickly.”
Eagle asked, “Where to?”
“To the hospital.” This was Neo speaking.
Seeing that Freya was uncomfortable, he answered on her behalf.
Eagle didn’t ask more questions and immediately went to drive.
Freya was helped by Neo to sit in the car.
Eagle drove the car.
On the way to the hospital, Neo asked with concern, “Feeling better now?”
Freya checked herself, feeling somewhat better now, just that initial discomfort, “Much better.”
Her complexion also regained some color.
Neo breathed a sigh of relief, “You must have been under a lot of stress recently, probably fainted from seeing the dean and got anxious.”
Freya thought she hadn’t eaten anything cold or unclean.
It probably wasn’t related to what she had eaten.
It was also possible that she was really as anxious as Neo said.
“Probably!”
When they arrived at the hospital, her abdominal pain had almost completely disappeared.
She pushed open the car door and got out.
Evan stopped her, his tone serious, “What are you here for?”
Freya said, “I’m here to see the dean…”
“Don’t go see him. He’s dead. Go back quickly. The scene is chaotic, don’t go in.” Evan replied firmly.
Freya almost stumbled, clutching the car door tightly, disbelieving, her voice trembling, “Dead, dead?”
Evan confirmed, “Yes.”
“How is that possible? How can that be?” She couldn’t fully accept it.
“The situation is as it is. Let’s go back first and discuss it later.” Evan comforted her, “This matter has nothing to do with you, don’t think too much about it.”
Freya got into the car.
Evan asked Eagle to watch her closely, “Don’t let her get out of the car. I’ll make some arrangements and be right back.”
Eagle was in charge of protecting Freya and assured him, “Don’t worry.”
Evan had someone take Thorne back, ensuring good care, then ran over, had Eagle drive, and followed behind.
Evan took Freya home!
He took out his phone and called Elijah.
This matter might become a big deal.
He needed to inform Elijah.
Maybe they could resolve it early!
Freya grabbed his arm, “Wait a minute.”
Evan looked at her puzzled.
“Help me find someone.” She said.
Evan asked, “Who?”
“The doctor in the hospital, Dr. Culkin. He must know the dean’s test results. I need to know how he died, whether it was due to the surgery or the implanted heart…”
She was gradually calming down now.
Evan hesitated for a moment and said, “Okay.”
…
It took Evan nearly an hour to bring Dr. Culkin over.
Upon seeing Freya, he said, “You know now, right?”
Freya nodded, asking Linda to pour him a glass of water.
Before Freya could ask, Dr. Culkin said, “The test results are all good, all indicators are normal. How did he suddenly die?”
“Weren’t you at the scene then?” Freya asked.
Dr. Culkin shook his head, “There were a lot of people at the time, his family, reporters, many people in the ward. I couldn’t even get in.”
Freya asked again, “What was the cause of death?”
“It’s still unclear.” Dr. Culkin said truthfully, “His family is causing a scene in the hospital, especially his son, things are chaotic in the entire hospital right now!”
Freya moved her lips, “I understand. You keep an eye on things at the hospital, don’t let anyone touch the body. I will find a reliable forensic pathologist to perform an autopsy.”
Dr. Culkin hesitated, “Isn’t the forensic examination the family’s responsibility?”
Freya felt that the dean’s son wouldn’t speak well, certainly wouldn’t want a forensic examination.
The surgery was what she was supposed to do.
The hospital had filmed the surgery she was going to perform in case of any responsibilities.
She was the one bearing the responsibility.
The dean’s son would definitely not let her off the hook!
So, now she had to find out the cause of the dean’s death!
If it was indeed related to the surgery!
She would bear that responsibility.
If not, that would be another story!
“Okay, I’ll go back now and watch over the body.” Dr. Culkin got up and left.
Freya had her driver send him off.
She sat on the sofa, pondering. The only person she trusted, who was also skilled, was Luna.
Only Luna had seen a body before, she could rely on her.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she took out her phone and found the number from the last message she received. She sent a text message, [Luna, I didn’t want to disturb your peaceful life, but I’m in trouble now, and only you can help me. If you see this message, please reply.]
