Lorelei
I am now on my way now to Abrain hospital, upon arriving one of the nurses told her that Dr. Kristopher advises them to tell me that upon arrival to go look for him. I thank the nurse and went to look for him. I go to his office first ang luckily, he was there.
"Dr. Kristopher, the nurse said you are looking for me? Is this about what you told me yesterday" I ask Dr. Kristopher while seating on the chair in front of him.
"Ah yes, I want you to come with me later, we will be visiting the patient in the file I have given you"
"The one who is in coma, is he someone very famous or controversial because the name was not mentioned in the file"
"Yes, he's kind of famous and very controversial, I'll tell you his name later"
"Why do you want me to come with you?"
"I want you to see him up close and examine him, so that in case something happens to me. as my protégé, you will take over"
"Dr. why are you saying those words like you know something might happen to you"
"Just saying, you'll never know what the future brings, I'll contact you when it's time for us to leave, oh, and Mrs. Gilbert is looking for you, her son is awake"
"That's great news, I'll come by and visit them"
Before doing my rounds, I visited Mrs. Gilbert and her son first, who was very happy to see me that she reaches out for a hug once I arrive. She keeps on thanking me for the successful removal of the tumor in her son's head. Her son is also already awake and was very pleased to see me, I walk towards him and talk to him for a few minutes, before leaving.
I did my rounds while waiting for Dr. Kristopher, it was around noon when he pages me. Dr. Kristopher car was towed the other day, so we use my car. I still don't know the patients name because Dr. still doesn't tell me, he must have forgotten. I did not bother to ask too because he might also be pretty occupied. When we arrive at our destination, I was shocked to see how heavily the place was guarded.
"Oh, it's you doctor Kristopher, who is she?" asked by one of the guards.
"This is my co-doctor, Dr. Lorelei Clarke, she will also be participating in the surgery" Dr. Kristopher answered. Our car now was surrounded by armed guards in suites and doing a thorough search like we were entering the pentagon.
"Okay, is the search done?" asked by the guard.
"Yes sir" answered by one of the guards that were searching my car.
"Okay, open the gates"
The large gate opened and we drive through the front house. After we got out of the car one of the guards take the wheel and park it somewhere. A French man comes out the front door with two guards following him and approach us, mostly talking to Dr. Kristopher. The French man leads us to the patient's room while talking to Dr. Kristopher and I just followed them from behind. I sometimes caught the French man glancing at my direction but I just ignores it and gave him a small smile that he replies with a smile back too.
I can't help myself but to admire this grand place, the patient must be really rich, I even recognize some art pieces of some famous artist. When we arrive at the patients room, I was shock to see who is the patient lying in the bed.
"Dr. Kristopher, you arrive" said by the woman who is seating beside the patient's bed. She looks good for her age, but you can tell that what age she is.
"If you don't mind, I am with my co-doctor, Dr. Lorelei Clarke just like what I said on the phone, she was the one I was telling you about, the one who will also be participating in the surgery" Dr. Kristopher said
"It's very nice to meet you, mam and sir" I said to them.
"It's also nice to meet you doctor Lorelei, I am Jessica and this is my husband Timothy" Jessica said and offer their hands for a handshake that I respectfully responds. After the introduction, I and Dr. Kristopher started the examination to the patient on the bed.
"Dr. next time don't forget to warn me whoever our patient is so I will not be shock like I am right now, this is Lucian Hunter, the Lucian Hunter, now I know why this place is heavily guarded, I'm getting a little bit of scared now" I whispered to Dr. Kristopher when I get the chance to be near him.
"I was about to tell you earlier but I forgot, and besides you don't have to be worried or scared of anything, I know a lot of news is circulating about Lucian and the Hunters, but I was their family doctor for a long time, and I can assure you there is nothing to be scared about" Dr. Kristopher replied.
"It's just, you know, it's Lucian Hunter, who will not be scared being in the presence of this man, even when he is in a coma right now, his authority is oozing"
Dr. Kristopher just smiled at me and continues our examination. After we were done, Dr. told me to wait for him in the living room while he talks to Lucian's parents. Jessica told one of the maids assist me to the living room.
"The madam told us to give this to you" the elder maid said.
"Thank you" Lorelei said with a sweet smile.
While Lorelei was waiting in the living room, Dr. Kristopher talks to Lucian parents first, to inform them their sons state was ready for surgery.
"Your son state is ready for surgery" Dr. Kristopher said.
"That's good to hear, can we do the surgery as soon as possible?" Jessica asks Dr. Kristopher.
"Yes, we can do it as much as possible if you wanted too, we just need to do a few more test"
"I hope the surgery will really help my son to wake up" Jessica replied.
"We will do everything we can Mrs. Hunter, let's just hope for the best result"
"Thank you, Dr. Kristopher, for everything" Timothy said.
"The pleasure is mine; Lucian was like a son to me"
After Lucian's parents leave, Fabio and Dr. Kristopher went to Lucians secret office room and talk about something serious. When their conversation is over, Dr. Kristopher leaves the room and go to where Lorelei is, but before he could approach Lorelei, Jessica calls out for him.
"How can I help you Jessica?"
"What is the connection of Lorelei Clarke to Elei Clarke of Omega Electronics?" asked by Jessica.
"She's her father, do you have any concerns Mrs. Hunter?"
"Nothing, I'm just curious, I heard Omega Electronics is facing some problems of bankruptcy, some money was missing or should I say stolen"
"Is that so? I have never heard of this news; Lorelei didn't tell me about it but that girl is always been private about her life"
"She does looks like a private person; it shows in her demeanor"
"Is that all Jessica?"
"Can I have her contact number for future concerns, just in case"
"Of course, Jessica, her contact number was already in the file I gave to you earlier, but I can give it to you now"
"Thank you, Dr. Kristopher"
