It was a private hospital in the north of A City.
The therapeutic level of such hospitals was mediocre, especially in remote counties. The service and environment of them were average, but the charge for diagnosis and treatment was not cheap.
Ordinary people only went to such hospitals when they had no other options.
"... Miss Zhu, my hospital is not as good as the one in the east of the city, but the curettage surgery for you was a complete success. Are you still feeling unwell?"
An old nurse observed the new female patient for a few days. No relatives had visited her since she was admitted to the hospital.
Before and after the surgery, she looked lifeless with a white vacant face.
"Miss Zhu..."
The old nurse called her again in a kind voice, "Do you want me to call for a meal or porridge for you? The doctor told you to eat some food yesterday..."
White bedsheets, white pillows, and white ceiling. Crystal opened her eyes and looked around as if it was a dream.
Her face was pale and she was lying on the bed, motionless. She didn't seem to hear the words of the kind-hearted nurse at all and remained silent.
It was as if her voice had been broken and she couldn't speak.
She slowly closed her eyes again, and she didn't want to think about anything.
The old nurse sighed and walked out of the ward.
Most patients came to such hospitals for treating special diseases that could not be said out loud, and many of them had artificial abortions and medicine-induced abortions.
The female patient surnamed zhu came to the hospital four days ago. At that time, the nurse in the lobby was shocked. The patient was wearing a hospital gown from a famous hospital in the east of the city, and her pants were stained with blood.
Why did she escape from a famous hospital and transfer to this small private hospital? As long as the patient had money to pay, nobody in the hospital would ask her such questions.
A few young nurses at the nurse's station were gossiping, "... She must be jilted by a man."
A middle-aged cleaner also came over, "It should not be an ordinary man. It must be a rich and powerful man. When his mistress is pregnant and he is afraid of causing trouble, he would send her to a private hospital like here to do abortions secretly."
"It's impossible. That female patient doesn't look like a mistress."
"Can you recognize a mistress at a glance? Such a woman is coquettish when she's in bed. Otherwise, you can't explain why no relatives visited her after her surgery. She must be a mistress, who got pregnant and did an abortion to avert trouble. It was just for money. There are many women like her nowadays..."
The nurses were not talking loudly, but the door of the ward next to the nurse's station was not closed completely. Crystal in the bed was very weak, but her nerves were on edge and very sensitive, and she could hear any noise.
At 9 the next morning, Christina and Lucy rushed back to A City from Z City.
"... Are you sure she really went to the private hospital in the north?"
Christina had been bothering Lucy since last night and she couldn't wait to catch the plane back in the early morning.
She looked up at the taxi driver and urged him, "please drive faster. We have to go to the north of the city asap."
"We're already on the highway. We can't go any faster. If you want to be faster, you should take the helicopter." The driver was a little impatient.
Lucy, who sat next to her, said coldly, "As I said, we should go to Hopkins's house first and take helicopter there."
Christina was furious and kept urging the honest driver, "Hurry up, hurry up. It hasn't reached the speed limit yet."
The driver looked sullen all the way, as he had picked up two difficult guests early in the morning.
There were many places in the north that were not fully developed, and the roads were not that good. The private hospital that Christina was looking for was really remote, and the rest of the journey was bumpy.
"... I should have asked Charles to send someone here first." After more than two hours, Christina finally arrived at the destination.
