Love's perfect match novel (Elspeth and Callum) novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72

Nodding, Elspeth followed Callum to the ward Lydia’s mom was in.

Lydia was kneeling before the bed while crying for her mom.

“There, there. Don’t cry. I’ll bring your mom to another hospital.”

Callum carried Lydia’s mom on his back and laid her down on the back seat of his car before speeding to another hospital with Lydia and Elspeth.

The hospital refused at first but later hesitantly reasoned that it was against the hospital’s policy after noticing the fury in Callum’s eyes.

“I’ll give you three seconds to reconsider your decision. Are you going to save a life or lose your job?”

Knowing the man standing before him was the renowned Callum Winthrop, the doctor spoke more gently.

“Mr. Winthrop, I—”

“Three.”

“Okay, okay. I’ll immediately send the patient to the emergency room, so please don’t get angry.”

The leading doctor waved his hand and beckoned the people behind him to send Lydia’s mom to the Emergency Room.

While Elspeth and the others waited outside, Lydia was tense as she kept pacing around anxiously while constantly glancing at the red sign above her.

“Lydia, you’ve been staying up all night to take care of your mom. Come over and take a rest.”

Elspeth felt distressed when she saw the dark circles under Lydia’s eyes.

“It’s alright, Elspeth. I want to wait for my mom.”

Lydia shook her head and refused to sit down.

The surgery took a long time. When the light above them went out, Elspeth’s legs had gone numb from her sitting too long.

Lydia immediately sobered up and sprinted to the operating theater door, anxiously waiting for the surgeon to

come out.

A male doctor with glasses came out and looked around, asking, “Who is the patient’s family member?”

Hearing that, Lydia dashed over and said, “Me. I am her daughter.”

“Sigh… Unfortunately, the patient wasn’t on the right meds after her previous surgery, which caused her to vomit out blood. Moreover, that particular medication has seriously damaged the patient’s health, so… I’m sorry. We did everything we could.”

Once the doctor finished talking, the atmosphere at the scene froze.

A long while later, Lydia’s voice and body trembled while she spoke. “She took the wrong medication? How could that be? The doctors personally brought her medication every time, and I watched her take them, so how could she have taken the wrong medication… Doctor, are you trying to fool me?”

Frowning, the doctor retorted, “Please don’t doubt a doctor’s judgment. My condolences to you, and please remember to sign the notification of imminent death.”

“No, you’re lying. How could my mom be dead?!”

Lydia’s emotions were out of control She couldn’t believe that her mom would suddenly die after her painstaking efforts to save and care for her!

Meanwhile, Elspeth also noticed something seemed off, and a bad feeling arose inside her

Could Arthur be behind all of this?

Elspeth quickly took out her phone to call Arthur, who finally picked up after she had made numerous calls.
