Chapter 74

Curious, Zachary followed suit

However, with the hustle and bustle in the building, by the time the two elderly men–both over fifty–slowly made their way inside, the person they were looking for had already disappeared.

“Age really does take a toll on the legs. Zachary mumbled, and the two of them made their way to the nurse’s station to

The nurse, having some faint recollection, pointed toward the back. “I saw that gentleman head that way”

After thanking her, the two men walked off in that direction.

The nurse watched their retreating figures for a moment, trying to place where she might have seen their faces before, but couldn’t quite recall.

Walking further into the building, they passed a connecting hallway leading to another wing–this one housing the traditional medicine department.

Zachary glanced down at the doctor’s duty roster on his phone, his finger halting on one name.

“I see Enzo’s on duty today. They should be over there, he muttered.

A few seconds later, a man cracked the door open, standing there to address the visitors. “Sorry, Enzo’s currently seeing my daughter. Please wait for a moment.

The man–Uram–paused as he studied the elderly visitor’s face. He suddenly stopped mid–sentence, squinting at Taylor, “Wait. aren’t you… Taylor?” Uram stammered.

Taylor snorted, his expression turning serious. “Stop dawdling and let me in.”

“Oh! Yes, of course. Please, come in”
