Chapter 716
Haylan and Yvonne wandered around Massach General Hospital, occasionally popping into a department ward when they walked past.
Now and then, Haylan would grab hold of a patient, a nurse, or a doctor, pass then something, and engage then in conversation.
His foreign language was almost perfect, and there was no hint of an accent in his voice at all. Anyone would have assumed he was from the Whileal Kingdom.
Moreover, he was a highly persuasive individual. Very quickly, he managed to obtain information about Bernard from one of the hospital workers.
No wonder Bernard was acting all high and mighty. He was the assistant director of Massach General Hospital, after all.
However, his inedical skills were nothing to speak of. He had spent too little time tending to patients these past few years, choosing to focus instead on administration.
Unfortunately, Massach General Hospital judged its workers on their professional skills. His carefully cultivated people skills did not win him any respect. Everyone seemed to look down on him instead.
Jeremy Housman, one of the other vice presidents at Massach, seemed particularly contemptuous of him.
“Jeremy Housman?” Haylan asked, stunned.
This name sounded a little familiar.
The moment Yvonne heard this name, her eyes lit up. “Housman Jeremy? Is he in the hospital now?”
“You know him?” Haylan turned to her with a shocked expression.
“Not only do I know him, he’s practically my idol!”
Yvonne sounded incredibly excited as she gushed about Housman. Enthusiastically, she continued. “Doctor Housman is the most famous surgeon on earth! He’s known for being able to perform even the most complicated and dangerous cardiothoracic surgeries.
“Half of the human heart transplants in history were personally performed by him.
“Furthermore, the success rate of his surgery is very high. His patients face a survival rate of more than 90 percent, and they go on to recover very well too.
