Chapter 97:
As soon as Belinda and Fred reached her apartment building, her phone began to buzz. It was Marlene calling.
Sensing urgency, Belinda picked up immediately.
“Belinda,” Marlene began, her voice laced with hesitation. “Remember the patient who wanted to use the same medicine as yours?”
Belinda, her eyebrows arching in recognition, responded, “Yes, what about her?”
“Well…” Marlene’s voice trailed off as she observed a woman leaning on a tall man’s arm, engaged in conversation with another doctor a distance away. Distractedly, Marlene wiped away some sweat from her forehead before continuing, “She… she showed up at the hospital today, insisting she needed to see you.”

I don’t have the time. We can reschedule for another day, or her lawyer can contact me. She mentioned getting a lawyer, didn’t she?”
Marlene exhaled deeply, indicating her reluctance to press further, and replied, “Alright, I’ll let her know.”
