Chapter 1390 Opening Day Of Bernian Hospital

Nina’s assistant had seen how Nina was troubled and mentally tortured by the relationship. As such, he was worried that Nina would fall into it once again.

“Just investigate him as I said. Also, remember to conduct the investigation discreetly and keep it a secret from everyone in the company.”

Knowing that Nina was insistent on it, her assistant nodded helplessly. “Yes, Ms. Nina. I understand.”

After the assistant closed the door and left, memories related to Chris unknowingly flashed through Nina’s mind. After coming to her senses, Nina forced herself to stop thinking about him. She heaved a sigh and put her act together to start working.

Meanwhile, Stephen kept fidgeting as he sat in his seat.

Is it because I bumped into Nina just now?

Gazing at his chest, Stephen could feel that his heart was pounding ferociously.

Am I lovestruck?

“Is my heart pounding because it’s filled with love for her?”

Upon asking himself, Stephen put on a wry smile and tried his best to calm himself down and concentrate on working.

Meanwhile, Nicole, who was dressed in a white nurse uniform, was busy visiting the wards in Bernian Hospital.

Worrying about severe patients, Nicole always insisted on checking upon them one more time. Despite being the head of the hospital, she still occasionally did it by herself.

Moreover, all doctors got along well with Nicole because she was humble and approachable.

“Mrs. Seet, why don’t you get some rest? I mean, you’ve been working since the morning.”

“I’m not tired. Besides, many patients are here even though this is the first day our hospital starts taking in patients. Since they place their trust in us, we must be responsible and give treatment to all of them as soon as possible.”

“Mrs. Seet, rest assured that we’ve specifically assigned staff to make the arrangements for patients to see our doctors. We’ll always be committed to treating the patients.”

“I’m glad to hear it. Nonetheless, be meticulous and don’t make mistakes.”

“Yes, Mrs. Seet.”

As soon as the young doctor, Johnson, finished speaking, a middle-aged couple in disheveled clothes came up to them nervously.

Thump! All of a sudden, they kneeled before Nicole and asked, “Are you Ms. Lane?”

Shocked to see that the couple kneeled, Nicole immediately helped them up. “Yes, I’m Nicole Lane. Please get up and tell me about your problem.”

“It’s okay, Ms. Lane. Please give us a minute. I heard that your hospital doesn’t charge any consultation fees from patients. May I know if it is true?”

Nicole nodded and explained, “Yes, we can waive the consultation fee for patients who are in difficulty. Are you here to request treatment?”

“Ms. Lane, you’re indeed kind. We’re here to seek treatment for our grandson. Can you please save him?”

“What happened to your grandson?”

“My grandson used to receive treatment in another hospital. However, he was driven out recently because we couldn’t afford to pay the medical bills. As such, we’re desperate and don’t know what we should do! If you can save him, we’re willing to do anything to repay you.”

“What kind of illness does he have?”

“We’re not sure. We brought our grandson to the hospital because he always had an upset stomach. When the doctor said our grandson had to be hospitalized, we heeded his advice. However, our grandson didn’t get any better, yet the medical bill was outrageous. In the end, we were driven out of the hospital because we couldn’t afford it anymore. Poor little thing!”

After hearing that, Nicole gave it some thought. They said just now that their grandson had an upset stomach. Could it be gastroenteritis? Nowadays, we can use acupuncture to treat three types of illnesses. First, it can treat pain, such as headaches and neck pain. Second, it can treat paralyses, such as stroke and facial paralysis. Third, patients who suffer from chronic diseases, including chronic gastritis and feebleness, can also undergo acupuncture treatment.
