The caretaker was not randomly knocking. She was tapping their secret communication code.

She was telling Rain that Leia was trying to escape.

Leia ignored her and opened the wardrobe. She took out her clothes and went to the bathroom to get changed. She was stopped by the caretaker when she came out of the bathroom.

"Ms. Norman, why did you change into your own clothes? You even took off the hospital gown,” said Hadley.

The caretaker gestured toward the hospital patient gown that she was holding.

In this moment of surprise and astonishment, the caretaker's reaction was really swift.

"It's none of your business!" Leia snapped at her impatiently.

The caretaker was accustomed to her bad temper. "I'm your caretaker. I must keep an eye on everything that concerns you. Your grandmother will blame me if anything happens!"

"I'm leaving the hospital. You can get lost. Ask my grandmother to pay you." Leia scowled. She did not even want to pay the caretaker her salary.

Before the caretaker could respond, the woman in the next bed burst into laughter.

"This is hilarious. Has she lost her mind? Claiming that she wants to get discharged in the middle of the night, does she think she's at home? Do you expect the doctors to process your discharge at this hour?"

The woman was looking at the TV when she said that.

However, the TV show was not playing a hospital-related drama at all.

Leia's face turned ugly. She knew the woman was mocking her!

Just as Leia was about to explode, the woman added, "That's strange. Changing into her own clothes in the middle of the night and claiming that she wants to get discharged from the hospital... Is she trying to avoid paying the medical expenses, by any chance?”

Leia could not hold back anymore. She wanted to argue with her.

However, the caretaker, who was behind her, asked, "Ms. Norman, please stay calm. Have you forgotten what happened a couple of days ago?"
