Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2862

On the other hand…

A patient with blood all over his head was brought to the emergency department of the general hospital.

As soon as the doctor and nurses saw the patient being wheeled in, they immediately sprang into action to save him.

The outpatient nurse noticed that the patient was still wearing handcuffs. She could not help but pause for a moment. "What's going on? The handcuffs need to be removed."

Francis, who was nearby, took out the key and stepped forward to unlock the handcuffs. However, for safety reasons, he still handcuffed one of the patient's hands to the bed. "Her name is Leia Norman. She’s an important suspect, and she got injured from hitting a wall."

The nurse frowned. The name sounded familiar. "What about her identification card?"

"There’s no identification card, but please save her first," replied Francis. He was just about to finish his shift, but the police officer from the detention center rushed out and said they needed to call an ambulance.

When he went in to check, he found out that Leia hit herself on the wall.

The impact seemed to have drained all her strength. It even left a small dent in the wall. Leia was seen on the ground with blood streaming down her face.

Francis dared not to leave work. She was the daughter of the Norman family. Even if it was eventually confirmed that she had committed a crime, they could not let anything happen at the police station.

Otherwise, they would all be held accountable.

Therefore, he followed the ambulance to the hospital.

"She doesn’t look too good. We can't check her medical history if there’s no identification card. Who will take responsibility if anything happens when we’re rescuing her?" The doctor beside them noticed that Leia's complexion was not just the result of excessive blood loss.

It was more like she already had some underlying condition...

If she had any preexisting conditions, they dared not to administer medication without caution.

Francis furrowed his brows as he suddenly recalled Leia's extreme lack of cooperation earlier. Then, he said, "She was admitted to your hospital not long ago. Can't you find her records by searching her name?"

The nurse next to him looked at Leia's bloodied face and furrowed her brows. "There are too many people with the same name and surname. Which department was she in?"

The doctor examined Leia's wound, which, although bloody, was not very deep. Considering she had hit a wall, the doctor made a decision. He turned to the nurse and said, "Go and find out her identity. It would be best if her family members could come to the hospital as well. The rest of you, push her to the CT scan room. She needs a brain CT scan to confirm if there's any head injury."

After the doctor said that, a few nurses worked together to push Leia toward the CT scan room.

As Francis watched them move Leia away, he thought of calling his colleague who had previously taken Leia's statement to inquire which department she had been admitted to. However, he saw the doctor turning back and reaching out his hand. "We can't do the CT scan with the handcuffs on. Can one of you come and unlock them?"

Francis handed the key to his colleague who came along with him and said, "Go. Make sure she doesn't escape."

"Alright." The police officer took the key and followed the doctor out.

The nurse, who stood beside, urged him, "Officer, can you remember which department she was in?"

"Let me make a phone call to confirm that," replied Francis as he picked up his phone and called his colleague, disregarding whether the person was off duty at this time. Right now, his priority was to ensure Leia's safety.

He confirmed that Leia had been in the Hepatobiliary Surgery Department and relayed the information to the nurse.

The nurse suddenly realized and replied, "No wonder I found this name familiar. She’s Mr. Norman’s daughter, right?"

Leia's name had already echoed throughout various departments of the hospital. The doctors in the Hepatobiliary Surgery Department, especially her attending physician, complained endlessly after receiving Leia as a patient.

Meanwhile, doctors and nurses from other departments were relieved that Leia was not under their care. Otherwise, they would also be in the same unfortunate situation.
