Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO

Chapter 44

Chapter 44

“It’s none of your business!” Mackenzie snapped before

walking off.

“Haha, see you next time, Ms. Quillen!”

Despite Mackenzie’s arrogance, Joel had no choice but

to maintain a cordial smile.

After all, the Quillen family wasn’t one he could afford

to offend.

Meanwhile, Emmanuel had laid Alessandra down on

the bed of a single ward. After that, he massaged her

acupoints to alleviate the pain.

Soon, a doctor who specialized in internal medicine

arrived.

His name was Darren Chase and was acquainted with

Emmanuel.

The sight of Emmanuel treating his mother elicited a

furrowed brow from Darren. As a doctor of modern

medicine, he wasn’t familiar with traditional medicine.

In spite of his disdain for gynecologists like Emmanuel,

he maintained a polite smile on his face. “Dr. Lowe, why

did you bring the patient here when you know how to treat her yourself? It’s not like you’re unaware of how

busy the hospital is.”

Turning around, Emmanuel anxiously explained, “The condition of my mom’s kidney is really bad, not to

mention that she only has one left that’s functioning. I

decided to bring her here since she needs modern

medicine to reduce the inflammation and

round–the–clock care.”

Even though Emmanuel was trained in traditional

medicine, he wasn’t averse to modern medicine.

Instead, he was someone who believed in the

effectiveness of combining the two.

When it came to inflamed kidneys, the injection

techniques of modern medicine were more efficient

and effective than relying on the herbs of traditional

medicine.

“In that case, come with me and complete the

admission paperwork on your mother’s behalf.”

“Sure.”

Emmanuel instructed the nurse to hook Alessandra up

to a drip before heading out with Darren.

When he returned, he was surprised to see his mom

“Mom, what’s going on? Why are you standing

outside?”

Surprised and feeling bad for her, Emmanuel hurried to

her side.

Bearing the pain in her kidney, Alessandra gave him a

helpless look. “A hospital staff came in to inform me

that the ward has been reserved by someone else and

kicked me out of it. On top of that, they’re unable to

find a room for me!”

Emmanuel’s brows knitted in response. Throughout the

two years he worked in the hospital, such a situation

was a rare occurrence.

Thereafter, he went to see the nurse in charge of the

wards.

“Dr. Lowe, the wards are allocated by the attending

physicians. Dr. Chase has assigned it to someone else,”

the nurse explained.

Emmanuel was outraged by the answer.

He could clearly remember that the hospital didn’t

have a policy for reserving wards. Moreover, his mother

had clearly come first with Darren’s knowledge.

Therefore, he wondered how the room was allocated

to someone else right when he went to complete the

paperwork.

Consequently, when Emmanuel requested to see

Darren, the latter found an excuse not to come.

At that moment, two burly men in suits who looked like bodyguards emerged from the ward.

“Haha, Mr. Chamberlain has reserved this ward, so stop

causing trouble here and move along!”

“That’s right. You can’t afford to bear the

consequences of interrupting his rest.”

In a fit of rage, Emmanuel barged into the ward. Upon

reading the man’s medical file, he was further

infuriated.

This so–called Joel Chamberlain is only suffering from an inflamed prostate which can easily be cured by

medication. There’s no need for him to be hospitalized, yet he insists on taking over Mom’s room. This is

outrageous!

“Hey, kid, who are you? What are you doing?” Joel

questioned in an intimidating voice when he saw

Emmanuel.

Suppressing his fury, Emmanuel replied politely, “Mr.

Chamberlain, your condition doesn’t require any

hospitalization. On top of that, my mom came here

first. Can you let her have the ward back? Thank you.”

Joel was momentarily stunned before guffawing out

loud. “Is this a joke? Who the hell are you? Why should I

give you the room?”

I arranged to be hospitalized on purpose so that I can

enjoy the company’s medical benefits. Getting paid for

doing nothing just feels great!

As his fingers balled into fists, Emmanuel couldn’t

come up with a solution to the impasse.

Meanwhile, a loud crash was heard outside the ward,

followed by a commotion.

With no time to argue any further with Joel, Emmanuel

rushed out of the ward to be greeted by the sight of

Alessandra grimacing on the floor.

“Mom! Mom!”
