Chapter 500

Hearing Hannah’s words, I felt a pang in my chest. There was something about this that gave me a gut feeling of dread. I didn’t resist this time but let Bailey take me to the hospital.

After a series of tests, it turned out that there was indeed an issue with my breast. It was a bit more serious than before, but fortunately, it was detected early. So, with the right medication and a cheery disposition, I should be fine.

“Thank you, doctor,” I sighed in relief, accepting the prescription from him, ready to get my medication.

As I was about to take the elevator downstairs to the pharmacy, a man wearing a face mask stepped out. His accent didn’t sound local, quite foreign actually. He was asking someone nearby, “Excuse me, do you know if Dr. Karina works in this hospital?”

Karina? I was a bit taken aback at the mention of the name. I couldn’t help but take a second look at the man. I couldn’t make out his facial features because of the mask, but he had thick eyebrows that seemed to join together.

“No idea, sorry,” the person he was asking waved him off.

He sighed and stepped out of the elevator. When he saw me, he asked me the same question.

I knew Karina, but I wasn’t sure why this man was looking for her.

“The Dr. Karina you’re looking for, is she a woman?” I asked instead.

His eyes lit up at my question and he nodded eagerly, “Yes, she’s a woman, she’s a miracle worker!”

Hearing him describe Karina as a miracle worker, I was almost certain herring to the Karina I knew. I smiled slightly, “I don’t exactly know her, but she has tre before. She’s indeed very good at what she does. Are you looking for her for treatment too?”

He seemed taken aback, as though he was unsure of how to respond. After a fe seconds, he nodded, “Yes, I need Dr. Karina’s help. Do you have her contact detail
