Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 392 It Managed to Slip Through You

At Pinewood Hospital, Elise and the others were blocked outside the hospital gates.

The guard, who stood in front of the iron gate, spoke in an aggressive manner, “Sorry, without the consent of the patient’s family, you can’t enter!”

“We are the family members of the patients who live here. We want to see Austin and Trevor Anderson. Why can’t we enter?” Jeanie asked.

“I’m not sure about this, but we have rules here. Anyone who wants to enter has to obtain the approval of the hospital director! Nothing else matters,” the guard responded unfeelingly.

“What a load of crap!” Jeanie no longer cared about her image. With anxious red eyes, she continued, “Why should I need your approval to see my husband and son? You’re not a hospital but a private prison!”

She wasn’t far from the truth. The hospital had a reputation for expensive medical care that discouraged ordinary folk, but the middle and upper classes continued to admit people here. The hospital had implemented militarized management and those who were sent in were folks like Austin and Trevor—unconscious or paralyzed.

Other than palliative care, there was nothing the hospital did and there was no patient who had ever healed and left the place. On the surface, it was a nursing home for the terminally ill, but in reality, it was a powerhouse for the famous and powerful to fight for power and benefits. Some people had also tried to save their loved ones from Pinewood Hospital and they even reported to the police in an attempt to have the hospital searched, but the police found that there was no violation of law on the hospital grounds. In the end, because the patient’s guardian didn’t agree for the patient to be discharged from the hospital, the rescue attempt had failed.

Thus, those who frequented this place were mostly the winners of conflicts over fame and fortune and they were also cold-blooded beasts who did not care for blood kinship at all.

“Whatever you say. Anyway, without the director’s approval, no one will be able to get in!” The guards were overly inflexible as they gripped the electric batons in their hands, as if they were about to raise the batons next and subdue those who had no ability to resist.

“You’re illegally confining them! Do you no longer observe the law?” Jeanie roared and tried to fight with the guards. As the guards were all huge and tall and had obviously underwent a lot of physical training, a light push from them was enough to send Jeanie staggering backward whereupon she almost fell down. Luckily, Elise was quick to grab her in time.
