novelxo Chapter 189
Under Josephine's continuous coaxing, pestering, and trickery, Rose no longer insisted and rushed to the hospital.
Fortunately, the indicators of the blood test that the doctor did on Jay were encouraging, hence he was transferred to a general ward. When Rose entered the ward, she was greeted with a sullen look on Jay's face and an unpleasant aura emanating from him.
On the hospital bed next to him was a young female patient who had been staring at Jay like a love-struck fool.
As soon as Rose entered, Jay became furious as he questioned her. "Why did you book me a general ward?"
Seeing that he was a patient, coupled with Josephine's words from earlier about how his company was running into problems, which was what was forcing him to socialize even though he was a bad drinker... Rose empathized with Jay from the bottom of her heart and consoled him in a good-natured way. "I wasn't the one who booked you a general ward. The doctor was the one who made the decision based on the severity of your illness."
"I want to be discharged from the hospital immediately," Jay ordered furiously.
Rose glanced at the dense rashes emerging on the back of his hand and consoled him kindly. "Just bear with it for a while, Sir Ares. As soon as the doctor says that you can be discharged, I'll complete the discharge procedure for you immediately."
Jay was in a towering rage and glared at Rose with a furious sneer. "Who are you to me? Who gave you the right to tell me what to do?"
Rose mumbled as though she was wronged, "I didn't want to come here and experience your wrath either, but your sister would rather take care of the little devils at home than come to the hospital to take care of you. I thought she was being cold-blooded at first, but now it seems like she's right. You're just a terrible drinker who starts roasting everybody as soon as you sober up... You're so scary that even she's afraid to come and visit you!"
Jay looked livid. "Did Josephine really say that?"
Rose nodded.
Jay grabbed the nebulizer from the bedside table but released it irritatingly when he suddenly recalled Josephine's words saying that he was a terrible drinker. He yelled at Rose, "Go tell the doctor that I want to stay in a single room."
Rose was extremely speechless. "Sir Ares, this is a hospital, not a hotel where you get to choose between VIP, single, or double rooms. This is a place to save lives, not a place to enjoy..."
Jay looked at Rose as she blabbered on. "Why did you send me to this hospital? Why not Grand Asia?"
Rose replied, "Saving a life is just like putting out a fire, why would you want to go far afield?"
"So you're aware that you're saving a life, huh, Rose? Do you know how important a doctor's expertise and a hospital's standards are?"
"Sir Ares, what you have is only a minor alcohol allergy. It would be a waste of resources for you to go to Grand Asia." In fact, when she called the ambulance, there was simply no time for her to calmly analyze which one was better and which one was not. She had been burning with anxiety when she called the ambulance...
Now that Jay was lecturing her, she realized just how unwise her choice was. She really should have just called Grand Asia Hospital instead... After all, Grand Asia Hospital was a top-notch hospital offering international-level healthcare services and most importantly, that was his territory.
Though after seeing how sprightly Jay was, Rose figured that there was simply no need for him to go to Grand Asia.
Jay glared at Rose furiously. She refused to let him discharge and refused to allow him to transfer to a single ward. He had no strength to fight back as he was now a patient. Otherwise, he would have thrown her into the sea to feed the sharks.
"Oh, Mister, I'm taken with your ability to strike and endure, to be both cool and lovely, and so handsome yet adorable all at the same time!" The girl next to him covered her mouth and confessed to Jay. The way Jay looked at Rose was much colder and ruthless now.
"I'll transfer you to a single ward right away." Rose slipped away at lightning speed this time.
To see other women constantly thinking of Jay was something that she least wanted to deal with.
Not long after that, a doctor came and transferred Jay to an ordinary single ward.
When Jay studied the four whitewashed walls surrounding him and the ward that looked as simple as a staff's cubicle, misery washed over him.
"Why didn't you pick a VIP ward?" He questioned Rose with a dark countenance.
Since he was going to be transferred, why did she not transfer him to a more presentable one? Jay really wanted to cut Rose's head open to see if she was having a short circuit.
Rose said with an aching heart, "I have no money, Sir Ares!" She had spent all her savings on the single ward and hospitalization fees.
