Luca let out a long sigh. She missed her child, but she had to be separated from her
because of Abel.
The next day, Sarah's vitals were looking good, so she was transferred out of the ICU and
into the VIP ward.
Sarah looked at the beautifully decorated private ward as it was completely different from
the environment at Mercy Hospital.
After being awake for a day and a half in the ICU ward, Johann was doing basic check-ups
on her, and she learned that Luca was the one who contacted the doctor and insisted on
getting her transferred here.
Sarah was familiar with the name.
She had been working hard to pay Luca back.
Sarah was surprised that Mercy Hospital would contact Luca. It must be because she had
Luca's business card in her wallet.
There was no other contact information for anyone else at Mercy Hospital, so they could
only contact Luca.
Sarah was very grateful to Luca.
She watched the nurses take her to her ward, and although she was lying down, she could
see the word 'VIP' hanging on the corridor after getting out of the elevator.
Sarah grew anxious. “Nurse, I can't afford such an expensive ward."
She had stayed in a VIP ward before, and it was already very expensive at the time, so it
would only be even more expensive now.
"This is the doctor's order, so we're just doing as we were told." After the nurses handed
her over, the head nurse of the VIP floor came over and asked the younger nurses to send
her to the ward prepared by Johann.
Sarah watched as the nurse got busy checking her name and giving her an injection.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe had mixed feelings because she knew that Luca had arranged this.
She already owed Luca money, so she could not let her spend any more on her.
Her eyebrows knitted together. How much did she owe Luca now? She did not know how
long she would need to work to pay her back...
The nurse hung Sarah's IV drip and carefully stretched the cable for the bell before placing
it next to her pillow. “Ms. Poplar. If you need the IV drip changed, you can just ring the bell.
The doctor also said that you can't get up for the time being, so if you need anything, just
ring the bell. We'll be there for you first thing."
"Miss, may I borrow your phone to make a call?" Sarah found out how long she had been
in a coma.
Even if she had brought her phone over here, it had probably run out of battery after so
long.
"Sure, who would you like to call?" The nurse complied with her request and took out her
phone to help her dial the number.
Sarah frowned as she could not remember Luca's phone number.
Seeing her struggle, the nurse said, "Ms. Poplar, you shouldn't use your brain too much.
Why don't you tell me who you'd like to call? Maybe their number is registered in our
database."
Sarah felt a dull pain in her head. Perhaps she should not think too much, so she said, "No
need, I have their card in my purse. Can you help me find it?"
She remembered that when she was moved in here, the nurse said she had put her
personal belongings in the closet.
The nurse nodded and opened the closet. She found her canvas bag and a black wallet.
"I'll look for the card."
"Thank you." Sarah could not get up, so she entrusted the nurse.
She did not have much money in her wallet anyway, so the nurse probably would not be
interested in the spare change she had.
The nurse found the card and said, "Oh, you want to call Ms. Craw?"
The nurse's tone sounded calm but excited at the same time, so Sarah asked curiously,
"Miss, do you know her too?"
"Ms. Craw is a legend in the VIP ward. She said she didn't study medicine, but she knows
dry needling. Her methods are very effective and slightly different from what's taught in
medical school. Oh, she knows pharmacology as well. This patient was very sensitive to
chemotherapy, so they experienced serious side effects, but after taking two doses of the
medicine Ms. Craw prescribed for them, it was not that unbearable for the patient
anymore. All of our nurses know her," the nurse introduced Luca.
They knew who she was, but they were not close to her.
They did not even know her contact information.
After dialing Luca's number, she walked to Sarah's bed.
Luca's voice sounded from the phone. "Hello, who is it?"
The nurse said, "Hello, Ms. Craw. I'm a nurse from the General Hospital. Ms. Poplar has
something to say to you."
After speaking, she switched it to speaker mode and placed it next to Sarah's pillow. "Yes,
Ms. Poplar." Sarah sounded a little weak. "Is this Ms. Craw?"
"It's me, Ms. Poplar. Are you out of the ICU?" Although Luca asked, she had already heard
the news from Johann.
Johann's news was very straightforward. He said that there were no signs of bleeding in
Sarah's brain after checking, so she could be sent to a normal ward to recover.
"I'm out. Thank you, Ms. Craw." Sarah looked at the bright ceiling. She had been living in a
dim house for over 20 years, so it had been a long time since she had seen such a bright
ceiling."
Even the ceiling at Mercy Hospital was not this bright...
If it were not for Luca, her miserable and pitiful life would have ended already.
When her cerebral aneurysm ruptured, she was still conscious. She was conscious even
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmafter the boss at her part-time job took her to the hospital and when she was pushed onto
the operating table by the doctors and nurses.
At that time, the doctor said, "She's in critical condition. Should we operate?
"She has no relatives who can transfer her and sign the documents.
"She has no chance of surviving if we don't operate, but there's no guarantee she'll live
even if we do operate.
"It's a huge risk."
She could hear the doctors and nurses clearly before she was anesthetized.
At that time, Sarah thought that it was the end. She would never be able to see the only
person she cared about anyway, so perhaps it was time to end her miserable life.
However, she would not be able to repay the favor that way.
Sarah thought that the lights above her head were too glaring, which reminded her that
she was alive. Since she made it out alive, all her responsibilities and her miserable life
must continue.
She had no intention of escaping. Since she could not die, she had to live life to the fullest.
She said, "They said that you arranged the VIP ward. Ms. Craw, you may need to cover the
cost of treatment for now, but I don't want to stay in such an expensive VIP ward."
Luca knew that Sarah called to not only thank her but also to talk about the VIP ward.
The VIP ward was expensive even to the average person.
Average families would choose to stay in multi-person wards to save costs.
However, it was different for Sarah. Even if she was sent to the general ward now, Marcos
would still send her back to the VIP ward a week later when her condition was stable.
If that was the case, why not have her stay in the VIP ward from the beginning?
Plus, the quietness of the VIP ward would help Sarah recover faster.
"Ms. Poplar, you don't have to worry about the expenses. You don't have to deal with that,
so just focus on recovery." It was not easy for Luca to talk about Marcos right now, so that
was all she could say.
