Chapter 53: A Boyfriend’s Rage

While Dr. Annabelle Gresham and Nurse Clara Vane were exchanging heated words, Eleanor discreetly pulled out her phone and typed a quick message to Teresa:

"I’m at Hope Specialized Hospital. Ward 12B. A nurse is causing trouble. Contact the hospital’s owner and send someone with authority."

She intentionally angled the phone so Freya could read the message over her shoulder. When she saw the little girl’s curious eyes scanning the screen, a faint smile tugged at her lips.

A reply came almost instantly.

"Okay," Teresa wrote.

A couple of minutes passed before another message buzzed in.

"The hospital is under the Miller Group. I’ve contacted Edward Miller... he’ll send someone right away. Do you want me to come?"

Eleanor responded with a single line:

"No. It’s a minor issue. Stay focused on your work."

Sliding the phone back into her coat pocket, Eleanor’s gaze shifted to Clara Vane, who was now glaring daggers at the young doctor. If looks could kill, Dr. Annabelle would have been incinerated on the spot.
