The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 1969

However, when Jolie Queen charged into Zamri Hospital with the other journalists earlier, all they saw was green smoke spilling in from the vents, and the faint scent in the air was clearly something medicinal.

And the official statement Zamri Hospital gave was as conventional as it could get—that the smoke was some aerosol antioxidant that purified the air.

What was more, any interviews with the medical staff would only yield the same response.

But as the top journalist for Zamri Daily, Jolie had the honed senses of a journalist and the innate female instinct that she was onto something big.

That was why even as most of the doctors in Zamri Hospital were leaving work, she did not give up and checked every hospital room for her exclusive.

She even chose a moment when no one was watching and slipped into the hospital storeroom where they kept most of their medical supplies.

The nurse on duty could not be blamed either. She had already been taken ill by the toxic gas attack earlier in the day, so she left work sooner than usual without checking the locks twice.

That in turn allowed Jolie the chance to slip in.

However, before she could look around, the nurse on duty had decided to turn back, checking the locks again despite being ill. She was even sweating buckets when she realized that she had forgotten to lock the door.

She quickly did so and left without looking back.

That in turn meant Jolie was locked inside the storeroom, and when the nurse's footsteps faded and silence ensued, she sneaked out from behind a giant crate.

She looked for a long while, but there was nothing wrong—every batch and bottle of medicine had not expired, and there were no inconsistencies that indicated they were counterfeit medicine.

That in turn left Jolie despondent.

"Was my hunch wrong? Was the issue not about the medicine?" she mused to herself as she whipped out her phone.
