Chapter 114 When Emily, the nurse who was speaking to Vera, turned around and saw the middle–aged woman, her eyes widened in surprise. “Director Yul!” Emily exclaimed in surprise. The middle aged woman with a haughty demeanor was none other than the Director of Serene Hospital. Of course, as the Director of the hospital, she had a very high status in the hospital.
“Emily, what is the issue?” Director Yul asked with a frown on her face.
Emily hesitated to respond to the Director, but Director Yul glared at her. Emily had no choice but to recount the events that had led up to this situation. She did, however, leave out several details about when she paid for the treatments with her own allowance fees. She was aware of how difficult Director Yul could be, and she didn‘t want to make things more difficult for Vera.
As Emily narrated the incidents, the frown on her face grew increasingly prominent. By the time Emily was done, she was sporting a very huge frown on her face.
She turned to Vera who was slumped weakly on the ground and walked over to her.
“Miss Vera, if you are unable to pay the medical bills in the next five minutes, then we will discharge your mother immediately.” Director Yul stated mercilessly.
Vera eyes widened in panic at her statement and rushed to hold her arm.
“Please no. You can‘t do that.” Vera pleaded with merciful eyes.
However, Yul pushed Vera‘s hand that was holding on to her arm and stated cruelly with a hint of disgust in her eyes.
“Yes I can.”
Darius frowned at Director Yul‘s harsh tone. From what he heard, Vera‘s medical bills were long overdue, and she needed to pay the rest of the medical bills otherwise her mother would be discharged from the hospital without fail. Darius knew that her mother was not yet healed from her illness, and discharging her from the hospital now would only aggravate her illness. Even though the hospital was right to discharge her after three months of treatment without complete payment, there was no need for Director Yul to be extremely harsh to Vera.
Vera was dejected at Director Yul‘s harsh response. She knew more than anyone how impossible it was for her to come up with the medical bills for her mother‘s treatment in just five minutes. It was as good as discharging her mother five minutes earlier. Just as Vera thought that all hope was lost, a clear voice rang out in the hospital.
