That was why when Susan approached her, Lily agreed without hesitation to come to Lagersfield
Upon her arrival, she used her hacking skills to investigate the entry and exit records of all personnel at the particular bureau for the past two decades. Strangely, she found no record of her father ever entering the premises.
Her father seemed to have never existed in this world.
She couldn’t believe that a living person could just vanish without a trace. Despite her grandmother’s disapproval, she was determined to get to the bottom of this mystery.
Lily accompanied Belinda for a while, gently tacking the blanket around her before leaving the ward.
Meanwhile, Loid headed to the doctor’s office
Belinda’s doctor had just finished surgery, but when he heard Loid was waiting, he rushed over without a moment’s pause.
“Mr. Laurier.” Winston Barrett stood beside Lold with a hint of nervousness.
Loid sat casually in the chair, his gaze so intense that Winston couldn’t meet his eyes.
With a curt nod, Loid lifted his head and said politely, “Sit down, Don’t be nervous, I just have a few questions.
In just a short while, Winston’s face was covered in sweat. He sat respectfully next to Loid and mumbled, “Please ask away.”
“Show me Belinda Hutchinson’s treatment plan.” Loid leaned back in his chair, his long fingers tapping rhythmically on the desk as he spoke slowly.
Winston was taken aback. Belinda Hutchinson? Wasn’t she one of his patients? Did Loid low her?
Winston’s body immediately tensed up, and his expression was filled with anxiety. “Apologies, Mr. Laurier. Belinda’s condition is quite unique, and we haven’t yet developed. treatment plan.”
Loid narrowed his eyes. A chilling air emanated from him as he uttered, “No treatment plan?”
Winston shivered as the ky tone in Lold’s voice sent shivers down his spine. “It’s because we can’t find the cause of her illness,” he explained hurriedly.
“All her organs are aging rapidly. We’ve done tests, and it’s not natural aging. It should be poison, but we haven’t been able to identify it yet. For now, we can only suppress it with the special antidote from the Medical Research Institute.“”
*No wonder Elly sent her grandmother to this hospital in the city center,” Shaun mused, stroking his chin. “It’s the only one with the research institute’s special antidote.”
Shaun paused, suspicion flickering in his eyes as he looked at Lold. “But her pills can suppress the poison, right? Why does she still need the special antidote?”
He had clearly seen Lily feed Belinda two pills earlier.
With her medical skills, suppressing the poison shouldn’t be an issue. Yet, she was still shelling out a fortune for the research institute’s special antidote. That was a bit unusual
Loid’s eyes narrowed in contemplation. After a moment, he looked up and said, “This can only mean that her pills aren’t very effective against the Mindshroud poison.”
He stood up, his tall and slender frame creating a commanding presence. His intense gaze focused sharply, narrowing with purpose. “Has anyone else used the special antidote?” Winston shook his head. “Not yet. It’s extremely expensive, and most people can’t afford it,” he explained.
With acurt nod and a polite tone, Lold addressed Winston, “Alright, thank you for your attention to this matter.”
Winston was taken aback by Loid’s unexpected appreciation. “You’re welcome, Mr. Laurier. It’s my duty,” he replied.
His expression then turned serious as he said, “However, these special antidotes are rare, and the Medical Research Institute only provides a small amount each month. I’m worried that ”
Loid tucked his hands casually into his pockets. “Just focus on treating the patients wholeheartedly, I’ll provide the medicine,” he said nonchalantly
Leaving her grandmother’s ward, Lily navigated the hallway toward Winston’s office as she wanted an update on the treatment. She paused at the door. Her eyebrows arched subtly, a flicker of intrigue crossing her dark eyes as she overheard Loid’s conversation
After a moment of hesitation, Lily stepped inside.
Dr. Barrett, Lily said, her voice soft and respectful yet tinged with assertiveness. “I’m sorry to trouble you again about my grandmother.”Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“No trouble at all. It’s my duty,” Winston replied with a smile.
Lily had been standing with Loid since she arrived, and now she was mentioning her grandmother, Winston immediately grasped the situation
