Chapter 55: An Unexpected Encounter

After Eleanor ended her conversation with Edward Miller, Dr. Clark left the ward without another word.

Annabelle walked over to thank her. Although she was young, she wasn’t stupid. She had clearly guessed that everything that happened earlier was because of Eleanor. Though Dr. Clark never said it aloud, the way Eleanor had spoken with Chairman Miller made it obvious... she held more power than she let on. The fact that Dr. Clark rushed over solely because of her only confirmed it.

A few minutes later, several hospital administrative staff members entered the ward with urgent instructions. They politely informed Isabella that she would be transferred to the VVIP cabin of the hospital at no charge.

Isabella tried to protest, saying she was comfortable where she was, but the staff insisted that the relocation was part of the hospital’s apology for her earlier mistreatment. She could tell Eleanor was behind this. But when she looked over and saw Eleanor silently urging her to stay quiet, she sighed and nodded in agreement.

Soon, Isabella was moved to the hospital’s most luxurious and fully-equipped cabin.

Hearing the staff’s conversation and witnessing Isabella’s transfer, the other patients in the ward couldn’t help but whisper among themselves.

"Did you see that? They’re taking her to the VVIP cabin!"

"Must be someone important. The hospital staff’s never moved so fast before."

"Looks like management is finally doing something right."

Unbeknownst to them, only Annabelle truly understood what had happened.

"Looks like Miss Eleanor Raynor is even more powerful than I initially thought," she mused silently. "Good thing I ended up on her good side. I’ll have to ask Dad about her when I get home."

Inside the VVIP room, Isabella was visibly uncomfortable with her new surroundings. The lavish interior, the plush bed, and the personal nurse all felt excessive to her. She squirmed in her seat.
