Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort novel Chapter 2026

Chapter 2026 Watch Over Her

Soon, they arrived safely at the hospital. Matthias, Lacy’s attending doctor, was already waiting in his office. Anthony accompanied Francesca to meet him. Matthias took out Lacy’s various medical test reports and treatment plans, then proceeded to explain the latter’s condition in detail.

Francesca went through them meticulously. For the time being, I don’t see where he made any mistakes. He did indeed adhere to the usual treatment plan, and the test results at the time show that Lacy didn’t sustain any other injuries. How strange. Since there were no other injuries and the surgery was a success, why are there still complications?

Matthias was also baffled. He even said, “I’ve been keeping a close eye on the child’s condition, and she was doing fine. I went abroad a few days ago, and when I returned, I heard she was starting to run a recurring fever.”

He explained everything seriously and responsibly, showing no signs of dubious behavior. After carefully reading the medical reports and relevant test results, Francesca went to the ward to see Lacy.

Lacy was running such a high fever that she slipped in and out of dazed wakefulness and unconsciousness. She’s only six years old, yet she’s now painfully thin.

Francesca examined Lacy thoroughly, took a few samples again to run some tests, then started the treatment. Meanwhile, Matthias personally led a few other medical staff to provide assistance.

Everything progressed smoothly, and Anthony remained outside the ward, waiting for Francesca.

Layla arrived halfway through. After learning that Francesca was treating Lacy, she did not go in since she did not want to disrupt them. She merely said to Anthony, “There are still some matters I need to attend to back at the orphanage, so I’ll have to leave in a while. You should stay here and wait for Francesca. Don’t step away, and call me if anything happens.”

Anthony nodded. “Okay, got it. What’s going on today? Why are you and Mr. Lincoln so busy?”

“Mr. Lincoln found out that there has been corruption in the foundation. On top of that, the staff involved are trying to flee. That’s why he had to rush over there immediately. Meanwhile, I watched the surveillance footage and noticed a figure in black sneaking into the orphanage last night. I’m worried Chrono or his accomplices have come to plant explosives again, so I’ve been looking into that with the police,” Layla explained.
