Angeline glared at him before dragging Marilyn in a rough manner to the side of the wall with several hospital rules pasted on it.
"Can you read?" Angeline chided sternly.
Marilyn was shuddering all over due to this woman's imposing aura and stammered, "Some of it."
"Hospital rule number five. Read it."
Marilyn stammered, "During... During the patient's stay in the hospital, the patient is not allowed to leave the hospital without permission. The hospital will not be held responsible if anything happens to the patients who leave the hospital against medical advice."
"Do you know what this means?" Angeline roared.
Marilyn contracted her neck, afraid to utter a single word.
Jay narrowed his falcon-like eyes. There was a deeper meaning to why Angeline was doing this.
Angeline dragged Marilyn to Jay. Perhaps it was because she was still mad at him, hence she was still keeping a distance from him.
"Your wife snuck the child out of the hospital at three i
n the morning last night before rushing her way back t o the hospital in a state of panic an hour later with the injured child in her arms to look for a doctor. The doctor had gone to the bathroom for a moment and she made a hue and cry about the doctor neglecting his duty."
At the end of the sentence, she added angrily, "If you have any doubts about what I say, then feel free to go i n the control room to check the surveillance tapes."
Jay stared at Marilyn in disbelief and reprimanded her furiously, "Why did you take the child out in the middle of the night?"
Marilyn stuttered, "Tiger said he was bored, so I took him out to get some fresh air."
Jay was so furious that he did not know whether to laugh or to cry.
"Hah!" he sneered weakly.
Angeline snapped. "Go and complete the discharge procedure for your child. Grand Asia can't treat your child anymore."
Marilyn slumped to the ground in shock. She pulled Angeline's hand wretchedly and pleaded piteously, "I was wrong, Ms. Severe. Please don’t make Tiger leave. I beg you."
Marilyn grabbed her feet and started knocking her head on the ground.
