Chapter 32: Trying to Banish Me?
Leon guessed the young man must be the son of a conglomerate in
Oregon.
Leon felt the man's face looked familiar as if he has met him somewhere,
but Leon couldn't recall.
The most important point is the injury to his face; his left eye is bleeding
and emergency treatment couldn't stop it.
Leon didn't care about the man. A lot of cases like that happen in the
hospital. To him, all patients are equal. There is no difference between
the rich and the poor.
He arrived at Anna's room and saw that Rachel just finished her
breakfast.
Yenni wasn't there and it made the room much more comfortable.
"Leon, have you eaten breakfast? If not, I will get you something to eat,"
Rachel said with concern.
Leon's mood immediately improved the moment he saw Rachel's
beautiful face.
"You don't have to. I've eaten ten minutes ago. I called a female
physician for a professional consultation and I will arrange a treatment
plan. Don't worry, I will take great care of her," Leon smiled/
Rachel nodded her head and she felt warm inside. She felt comfortable
when Leon is with her. Rachel knew that without Leon, her family will never experience such
excellent medical treatment. Initially, she wanted her mother to be treated
at the public hospital, but the hospital didn't even have a lift.
In reality, it was Rachel's kindness that saved her mother's life.
The reason why Leon is willing to help Rachel is not because of her
popularity. Although everything about her appearance and attitude is
captivating, Leon has enough of such graceful women in his life.
When Leon was just released from jail, Rachel is the first person to greet
him warmly, and kindly reminded him to be cautious about Gerald.
When most of Leon's friends hid from him, Rachel trusts him and never
judges him. Leon will surely remember her kindness up to this day.
Suddenly, Rachel reached for her phone and showed an article from the
local news portal. She then told Leon, "Leon, look at the girl who fell;
she looks like Yenni!"
An excerpt of the news read, 'A woman from Oregon was found in the
sewers of the Oregon Avenue after suffering a fall at 10 p.m. last night.
Descriptions of the woman includes her wearing strikingly open clothes
and an eccentric haircut. Her behavior was uncontrollable…"
Under the text was a picture of the woman; everything except her face
was censored.
Her short and modern hair cut was by courtesy of Leon.
"Yeah… they kind of look alike," Leon tried his best to contain his
laughter. "But how would Yenni want to style her hair like this? I think she's a
different person…" Rachel is unsure.
"Maybe she's a crazy person, but who knows?" Leon shrugs his
shoulders.
The consultation went smoothly as scheduled.
The doctors at the Royal Taruma Hospital have gathered at the
conference room to discuss about the surgery plan.
Leon wanted to hear about the doctors' opinion on the case. He would be
able to learn from them and use the knowledge to his benefit. It doesn't
matter whether it is traditional or western medicine as long as the disease
is cured.
The conference will start soon, and Leon has requested Director Ezra to
allow him in the room.
When Leon entered the conference room, he received looks of
displeasure from the doctors.
"Who are you? Who let you in?"
"This is a restricted conference."
"His badge says Oregon State University. Is he a medical student?"
"How is a student allowed in here?"
"Keep quiet and listen to what he has to say. Watch your reputation!'
The ten surgeons seem to underestimate Leon. Most industries have a chain of seniority which allows seniors to
intimidate their juniors. The medical field itself has a high requirement in
terms of professionality and a slow promotion. Only after reaching
forty-years-old is someone allowed the rank of Director. With that, how
would senior doctors take good care of their students?
"The patient's daughter is my classmate. I am a medical student from
Oregon State University, and I am here today to listen to your surgery
plan with permission from Director Ezra." He mentioned Ezra's name to
save time.
"Dr. Glen, he said Director Ezra allowed him to join this conference. I
think we should confirm it," said another doctor as he looked at Dr.
Glen.
Dr. Glen is one of the most well-known doctors in the hospital who is
responsible for the team of surgeons. Obviously, he enjoys his high
reputation in the hospital.
Dr. Glen glanced at Leon and asked him, "It would be illogical to let a
student listen to the pre-op plans; it isn't in accordance to the rules. Did
you really come here with Director Ezra's permission?'
Glen felt that Director Ezra shouldn't have let a student into the
conference. Besides going against the rules, it is just naïve.
"The members of this conference are professional specialists, and you
want to listen to our plans? Will you even understand everything we're
saying?"
Dr. Glen didn't act aggressively, but his eyes showed intense dislike
towards Leon.
"Of course, you can confirm it to Director Ezra," Leon replied. Dr. Glen was annoyed at what he heard.
In the hospital, Dr. Glen had more than one thousand people working
under him. Also, the position of vice director is currently empty. He will
be promoted as vice director by the board and become the youngest vice
director in the hospital's history.
Dr. Glen will become vice director in his forties and his passion burned.
"I don't have to call to make my decision! How is it possible Director
Ezra allows a student to join the conference? And you still want me to
ask him about this? Get out of here now!"
Leon was irritated at Dr. Glen's sudden outburst.
Leon is an inheritor of precious ancient medical knowledge; even Ezra
couldn't keep him. The surgeons should have appreciated the chance to
talk to Leon!
His reaction was not out of the ordinary.
Leon didn't want to offend the doctors and he indeed had Director Ezra's
permission. Dr. Glen's anger explosion doesn't make sense at all.
"Are you trying to kick me out? You don't have the right to!" Leon said
coldly.
