Alina's heart was thumping like a drum. She rushed to Michael's bedside, her voice trembling. "What happened?"
Morgan pulled her aside and said with a smile, "Don't be anxious. Mike is fine. The nurse said that he showed signs of recovery. The specialist team and Dr. Bill will come soon."
"Really? Is he finally going to regain consciousness?" Alina grabbed Morgan's hand tightly.
"Yes." Morgan nodded.
Alina looked into Morgan's eyes. For some unknown reason, she felt reassured by his firm reply.
Bill quickly entered the ward in his white coat, holding Michael's medical records.
He placed the records on the bedside table and checked for Michael's pulse. After that, he glanced at the vital signs monitor beside the bed.
Bill narrowed his eyes and turned to Alina with a smile. "Michael's condition is improving. He has already shown signs of recovery. When he fully regains consciousness, he will be out of danger. Don't worry, Michael's rehabilitation after the surgery will be under Lanthem Hospital as well. I guarantee that Michael will be as good as new after six months of therapy."
"Thank you, Dr. Bill!" Alina felt a little embarrassed. Wilson's handsome face appeared in her mind. It was fortunate that Scumbag had helped out by sending Mike here. Otherwise, Mike's condition could have been worse.
"Hey, don't be so formal with me. If you really want to thank me, put in a good word for me when you see Wilson!" Bill winked at Alina.
Alina laughed awkwardly. "Well, Dr. Bill, actually I am not very familiar with Wilson either."
"Tsk tsk, to be honest with you, don't copy Wilson's mannerisms. You'll make enemies everywhere. Take me as a role model instead. Look at me, I'm always pleasant and kind, full of empathy, and everyone likes me!" Bill launched into a string of self-praises.
His speech was interrupted by the arrival of several doctors from the specialist team. Bill's playful expression disappeared and he put on a serious face. He informed the doctors, "The patient's recovery is good. Commence with plan A. From now on until the day of discharge, be on your toes as you monitor his recovery!"
