Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1558

"Hospitalized? It’s that serious?" Queenie realized the seriousness of the matter when she heard that Leia had to be hospitalized.

The doctor nodded and replied, "Mrs. Norman, you don't have to worry. The situation can be controlled once we find out what caused it and come up with a treatment plan."

Leia picked up the report on the table and looked at the results of the diagnosis at the end of the report. Her expression was glum as she said, "Did you make a mistake? I’m as healthy as can be. How could I have gotten infected with this disease?"

The doctor pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose. He had encountered similar situations prior. Patients were sometimes unable to accept the harsh truth when they find out about their condition. Everyone wanted to be healthy and free from illness, so it was normal for them to need some time to process the news. "Ms. Norman, please calm down. We can find out more after you’re admitted and go through some examinations. The matter should be treated sooner rather than later. You’re lucky that you found out about it before there were symptoms."

There were many who were unable to detect the chronic failure of their organs in time. By the time the symptoms appeared, it was already too late.

Queenie looked at Leia with tears welled up in her eyes.

Treating Leia was not an issue, but she was unable to accept that Leia was suffering from this disease at such a young age.

Leia could not accept it either. She was so young and was not ready for a life where she had to take medicine long-term

"You must be mistaken. I'll not be hospitalized." She refused them directly.

"Leia, please be good and be admitted to the hospital. We can find out more after you get checked." Queenie was sad but did her best to persuade Leia.

Leia was reluctant to be hospitalized. On top of that, Luke would find out that she had returned to A City. She could not afford to be admitted and thought of Luca.

If it were not for Luca’s comment, Queenie would not have brought Leia to the hospital.

Leia grabbed Queenie's arm and said, "Mom, isn’t Luca a doctor of some sort? What if we got her to prescribe medicine for me?"

Queenie had thought of Luca too, but she was hesitant.

When she realized that Luca and Luke might be somehow romantically involved and overthought it, she no longer trusted Luca.

She persuaded Leia, saying, "Even if Luca prescribes herbs for you to condition your body, we still have to find out what's going on. My dear, let’s get you admitted. I’ll ask the doctor to get you a VIP ward. We can get Luca’s help after we find out more about the root cause."

Although the mother and daughter did not say anything, the doctor knew what was going on. After all, Queenie had made a request when she made the appointment. They did not want too many medical staff to participate in the examination.

The doctor knew that Leia was a star and presumed that she was unwilling to be hospitalized and receive treatment because she did not want the reporters to find out about it.

However, she was no longer popular and had a lot of negative news surrounding her. The reporters would not be bothered to report about her.

Although he was not entirely sure, the doctor shared his advice. "Ms. Norman, we take the confidentiality of our VIP patients very seriously. All our medical staff is highly trained and they keep their work confidential. No one will know that you’re in this hospital, don't worry."

Leia was still resistant. She glanced at the checklist and confirmed with the doctor. "Can you make sure that except for the medical staff members who are responsible for treating me, no one else in this hospital will know that I’m here?"

The doctor was stunned. The request she made was a little difficult. After all, she was not in the best condition. It was likely that doctors from other departments would contribute to the treatment plan. What was more, nurses were all on shift duty. In certain situations, nurses would also be transferred between different departments to help out...

Queenie knew that it was not an easy request. However, it was urgent to get Leia hospitalized as soon as possible. She wanted the doctor to lie. "Of course, that’s what you get as a VIP patient."
