A Whisper that went unheard novel Chapter 100

"I have friends coming over shortly," Melody said. She had just messaged Felicia and Jason, and Felicia had said that they were together and would be on their way shortly.

…

Having concluded the meeting in the doctor's office, Benson projected the patient's medical history on the large screen again, allowing everyone in the room to review and analyze the details independently.

Harold turned to Jeremy, asking, "Have any ideas or suggestions on this matter?"

"No," Jeremy replied tersely.

Regarding him with a hint of surprise, Harold asked, "How could you possibly have no ideas? You were always the first to come up with a solution for patients before this."

Jeremy retorted, "It's clear that the car accident had caused skull deformity and fractures, leading to compression of the central nervous system and the formation of an aneurysm. In addition, the patient had previously had a heart bypass surgery. Which aspect do you think we should focus on first?"

Though Harold had worked in the neurosurgery department for years, he had rarely encountered cases with such a combination of conditions. Each one of the conditions would already put the patient in a high-risk category, but this particular case had all of them combined.

He called out to Jeremy after the meeting, exclaiming, "Hold on! Why are you in such a hurry anyway?"

"It's just that it's too hot and crowded in the office," came Jeremy's reply, his countenance austere. His white coat simply amplified his cold demeanor, making it obvious that his mood was far from good.

Glancing at him with a hint of confusion, Harold mentioned, "It seems like your emotions have been all over the place recently, Jeremy. I mean, you used to be so composed, never letting anything show on your face."

Jeremy hesitated briefly before stating indifferently, "You're just overthinking it."

Cocking his brow, Harold said, "It's a positive change, though. You're still young, and a bit of energy is refreshing. You used to consistently wear a grim expression, which was quite unsettling, actually. Come on, tell me. What's been going on lately?"

Jeremy wanted to refute the claim, but suddenly, the sight of Melody's pallid face, with her dark, luminous eyes staring at him, abruptly filled his mind. Though she hadn't spoken, he could almost hear her soft voice calling his name with a smile.

It was then that he suddenly felt a wave of uncontrollable emotion surge within him, causing him to lower his jaw and clench his teeth.

…

It wasn't long before Felicia and Jason arrived at the hospital. Tiffany, succumbing to exhaustion, took her leave after a brief greeting.
