Eleven Years All to the Wrong Man novel Chapter 209

"Hey, we're all waiting in line. Why do they get to cut?"

The sudden line-cutting naturally caused some dissatisfaction among the other patients and their families.

A nurse tried to maintain order, shouting, "Quiet down, quiet down, please be patient! One at a time, okay?"

"One at a time?! We are going one at a time, but what about them?"

A young man was the first to lose his patience. He stood up and roared at the nurse.

As the commotion grew louder, Emma, who was sitting in a corner, looked up. She had been further back in line, and now the line-jumpers had pushed her even further back.

"Sir, please don't shout. Keep your voice down!"

The nurse was no pushover. Seeing the man's explosive temper, she retorted with an equally harsh tone.

Her confrontational attitude only fueled the anger of those around them.

The young man wasn't wrong; they had all been waiting patiently. Not only did they not get an explanation or an apology for someone cutting in, but they were also being snapped at by the nurse.

Several other family members also stood up. As the situation was about to spiral out of control, Melissa said worriedly, "Dr. He, maybe we should just wait in line?"

Thanks to Evan's connections, the hospital director had specifically instructed the head of the lab to take good care of the patient in room 1507.

Thomas had spent his entire life as an unremarkable logistics employee at a large company, overlooked and ignored. He had never experienced this kind of privilege or been doted on like this. He was glowing, looking nothing like a man battling cancer.

Since both Dr. He and her father had said so, Melissa couldn't refuse any longer. She smiled, and just as she was about to agree and push her father's wheelchair forward, a voice cut in.

"What's going on? Why is it so noisy?"

A cool, clear voice interrupted their conversation.

Seeing who it was, Dr. He immediately rushed over with a sycophantic expression, feigning exaggerated surprise. "Oh, Dr. Allen! What brings you here?"

Nathan had been passing by the lab when he heard the unusual commotion. Remembering that Emma should still be there waiting for her tests, he had instinctively walked in.
