In the real world in the meantime, her phone was ringing non-stop but the calls went unanswered. The system would not allow her to be distracted.
The caller was Jing Hee whose message had been read but left unanswered.
Alix had done it deliberately, wanting the woman to be so desperate that when they did eventually meet, she would fall to her knees.
Jing Hee was at the hospital in Lin Billi's room where she often was, lately. A new expert that had been flown into the city from another Shanghai had just finished examining Billi. From the look on his face, both women had known that the result was negative even before the expert could talk.
It's why Jing Hee was calling Alix non-stop.
Over ten experts from the country had examined Billi and none had a good answer. Even the one abroad that they consulted with were just as confused.
