She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 153 - WHO PAYS THE MEDICAL BILL?

When they reached the hospital, Stefan and Cayenne went to look for Dr. Wilson while Chris stayed in the information desk to get information about Cayenne's mother medical bills.

"Good afternoon, sir. How may I help you?" one of the nurses asked when she saw him.

"I was told by my daughter that someone paid for her my wife's medical bill? Is that true?" Chris questioned, the lies he spouted seemed real when he was looking so serious and intimidating to them.

The nurse was a little anxious but she soon calmed down and did her work. "May I know what's the name of your wife, sir?"

"Emerald Ardolf." Chris responded.

The nurse searched for this name as soon as she got it. "Age of the patient please."

"40."

"Alright. It showed here that she was discharged for three weeks now. And yes, her bill is paid already."

"Who paid for it? I want to know if the person who paid the bill and the person who's asking us for the payment is the same person." Chris replied with a face full of worry and anxiousness. He can be awarded with the Best Actor award if he's into entertainment.

"We don't have any information of the person who paid for it, sir. They paid it with cash and they just signed the form without any question. We don't know who the person was."

"So, you allowed people to pay for bills without knowing their relationship with the patient?! What if those people will extort my pretty daughter for repayment?!" Chris exclaimed in anger. "This hospital is inhuman. As long as you get the money for the bills, you don't really care what happened to the family of the patients, right? All you care about is the money."

"That's what business is, sir. Even if we wanted to do things our way, we are just mere employees. We will lose our job if we won't follow the rules." The nurse retorted which was actually right.

Chris couldn't find anything to refute that but the nurse saw how anxious and depressed he was. She took a sticky note and wrote something on it and handed it to Chris. 'I hope you won't tell anyone that this is from me. William Obcial. No contact information available.'

Chris read the note and nodded his head. "I understand that you have to do your job. I'm sorry for causing you trouble." He pocketed the note and left to wait for Cayenne and Stefan inside the car.

One of the nurses, who witnessed what happened, approached the other nurse with worry. "Did that guy do something to you?"

"No. He was just anxious for his family."

"What was that paper you gave to him?"

"I wrote down the bill amount that the person paid. In that case, he would know if he should make trouble to their family's benefactor or not. Instead of being thankful that someone paid for it, he was making a fuss. If they have their own money to pay for it, his daughter wouldn't be working from dusk 'till dawn."

"Whose family was that?"

"Emerald Ardolf."

"And what was his relationship with the patient?"

"He said that Ms. Emerald is his wife."

"Idiot!" The nurse who came flicked her colleague's forehead. "Just pray that the man won't mention your name at all once trouble brews."

"Huh? Why is that?"

The nurse rolled her eyes. "I've been taking care of Ms. Emerald Ardolf ever since she came here. My father is her doctor. She has a daughter and two sons but she doesn't have a husband. For almost five years of being her nurse, I've never seen anyone with that face who came to visit her."

"But don't you think it's weird? Why would he ask for someone's information if he's not related to them? And also, he could be the father who never showed up. Maybe he was busy working somewhere and just came home to know this event."

"Whatever. I don't care with what will happen. As long as the Ardolf family is safe, I don't mind."

"What should I do now?" the nurse, who talked to Chris, was thrown in panic. "Will I lose my job?"

"I'll visit them later. I'll try to see if they're related to that man earlier."

"Thank you."

Inside the car, while waiting for Stefan and Cayenne, Chris contacted Shein to look into William Obcial. They didn't have any other clue aside from the fact that the man came to Senyu Medical Hospital to pay for the huge amount of medical bill.

"I'll send you all the information I got and you can decide on your own as to what you should do after getting it." Shein responded to him.

"Thanks."

Their conversation was always short since they only talk about important matters. They're not like other people who likes to engage in some petty and unimportant talks.

Meanwhile, the doctor was busy removing the stitches on Stefan's head. It was just a small wound but the doctor took an utmost care towards him since his close to him just like Travis Madrigal. Stefan's hair was a little it long and thick so, he wasn't worried about the scar.

"Just rub the ointment I prescribed to you to make sure that this won't get irritated. And also, don't scrub your head too much every time you take a shower." Dr. Wilson reminded him.

"I understand it doc." Stefan responded.

The doctor turned towards Cayenne and smiled at her. "Please help me remind him the things I mentioned every day. It would be a great help if you can wash his hair since you'll be able to see the wound and avoid it."

"That's indeed a good suggestion." Stefan agreed instantly even though the doctor wasn't talking to him.

'Does this mean that I have to shower with him? Every day until his wound is fully healed?' Cayenne couldn't help but wept without tears internally. And seeing the wolfish smile of the man in front of her, she knew that he was the happiest person with this advice from the doctor.
