Marked By The Billionaire

Chapter 8: Special Inspection Mode

She held the phone in one hand, and the information on the other hand. She was vexed, “Mom, I am busy today, but free tomorrow. I promise I will go to the hospital tomorrow!”

Her mother refused instantly. “No way, this is not negotiable! Every time you promise tomorrow you break your promise. Since you are so disobedient, I will change my clothes and come to your company!”

“No!” Lucy was so frightened that she stiffened her back upon hearing her mother’s threat. “Mom, I was on my way to check, you must not come here!”

Lucy’s birth could be described as a series of twists and turns. Her mom was more than 30, too old. When she was about to give birth, her mother was in labor for two hours, but she still didn’t come.

The doctor and her father were so worried, that they tore their hair out. Luckily, half an hour later, Lucy was born and both were safe.

But there were many problems when her mother went into labor, and as a result, she became sick.

Since then, her mom’s legs had been more accurate than the weather forecast. She could always tell when it was about to rain, and her legs became numb and painful.

As she got older, her condition became worse.

Lucy was the culprit of her mother’s disease, so it was impossible for Lucy to let her mother run back and forth across the city.

Besides, there was a long distance between them, almost two and a half hours. Her mother was also thrifty and reluctant to take a taxi.

The subways and buses in New York were crowded, and Lucy did not want her mom standing for two hours. As for her manager…

After hanging up, Lucy put down the folder with a headache, and said to her colleague, “If the manager comes by, please ask for a leave of absence for me,, it’s urgent and I have to go out.”

Her colleague looked surprised. “Are you not afraid of being fired? You must understand the importance of this list, because of them the manager…”

Before she had finished talking, she was interrupted by Lucy. Lucy twitched her mouth and said, “The list is gone, let the company fire me.”

Grabbing her bag and ignoring the stares of the people around her, she trotted out of the company.

Her mother called again as she arrived at the central hospital.

“Dear daughter, the appointment I’ve made is better than the last one. I hear he is the best oncology expert in the hospital. You should cooperate with him.”

Lucy talked to her mother on the phone as she searched around for the correct office in the hospital.

Her mother noticed that Lucy was absent-minded, and then said “don’t forget to tell me the result of the test.” She then hung up.

She got all the way to the end of the corridor, but still couldn’t find the room for the breast exams. Just then a young nurse came up the stairs, and Lucy ran over to inquire. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Excuse me, could you help me find the breast exam office?”

The nurse was confused and told her to search for it downstairs

Lucy hurried to repeat what her mother had told her before.

“Were you sure you found an expert named William?”

Lucy thought about it, and nodded her head.

The nurse’s eyes looked strange, and opened her mouth to reply.

Before she could, another doctor came up to them...

The man was young with a clean face and a good figure. On the bridge of his nose stood a pair of black- framed glass, adding a bit of elegance to his appearance.

His voice sounded like a spring breeze, and he told Lucy to come with him.

As soon as the nurse opened her mouth, the doctor waved and stopped her. “Let me take in charge here.” He said.

The nurse looked reluctant, staring at Lucy, and then walked away.

“Let’s go, I’ll take you there.” The doctor walked in the front of her. The corridor was spacious and long, and the doctor turned his head several times to see whether she was following him. She thought to herself he might not be the breast exam doctor, because he didn’t talk much.

If he was the breast doctor, she assumed he would have asked her a few questions.

Lucy wasn’t aware that the doctor was very happy. If he hadn’t come upstairs at that exact time, Lucy would have been taken somewhere else. He sighed. It was really nice to accomplish the task that his master had arranged…

Otherwise, he would be awaiting the consequences...

Lucy heard him whispering to himself and looked over, “What are you talking about?”

The doctor waved his hand, “Nothing, just remembering something.”

The medical equipment of the central hospital had always been supplied by another company.

There was another big list.

Candy did not mean to push the door. Lucy was standing behind him and wanted to ask. She heard the noise of footsteps in the hallway, approaching very fast.

Lucy took a look down the hallway, and there were four to five nurses quickly approaching them.

The leader, a middle-aged female nurse, looked at Lucy from head to toe, “Come with me,” she said.

Lucy was so surprised that a test would need so many people.

The nurse reached to open the door.

The room was spacious and bright, filled with all kinds of equipment, and Lucy took a deep breath, relieved that she finally found the room.

After walking a few steps, the nurse stopped and took out a blank blindfold from the pocket of her white coat.

Lucy’s heart was nervous, and she took two steps back, “What am I supposed to do with this?”

The nurse looked normal, “This is the rule of the office master, William, and you just follow it. It’s to make the patients relax, after all, a breast inspection is different from others.”

Lucy smiled awkwardly, but since it was the rule, she couldn’t refuse.
