Ian raised an eyebrow, feeling puzzled.

Ian’s lip curled in faint annoyance,

‘Couldn’t even bother to come up with a halfway decent excuse?‘ Ian thought to himself.

Stanley pressed, “Why are you just standing there? Let’s move.”

“I’m here to see the patient, not to hang out with you.” Ian shoved Stanley’s hand off his shoulder with extra force. “Just get lost.”

“Wait a second,” Stanley called out.
