Chapter 45
Ariana snatched up a mask from the side and put it on the girl’s face. She then took off her coat and wrapped up the child quickly, Afterward, she carried her out of the taxi and pushed through the crowd. She rushed blindly to Theodore’s car until her forehead bumped into the door frame.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
The wails of an ambulance siren gradually sounded nearer.
Ariana breathed a sigh of relief. She reasoned that Sarah would get the urgent medical help she needed now. All she had to worry about now was the well-being of the little girl. In spite of the piercing pain she was feeling on her forehead, she urged, “Hurry up, drive!”
Horace turned his head, looking to Theodore for instructions.
Theodore tore his gaze from his wife. He gave Horace a straightforward look before leaning back against the seat and closing his eyes.
Horace took the hint. He started the car, made a U-turn, and sped away.
“Where should | head to, Ms. Edwards?” he asked politely.
Ariana thought for a while and said, “Take me to a private hospital with tight security. This kid needs a checkup. “ “Ermm...” With a hesitant look on his face, Horace looked up at the rearview mirror.
“Go to Mercy Hospital.” Theodore, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up.
Ariana looked at him, surprised.
Mercy Hospital was affiliated with BRD Group. It had the best hands and resources in the country. However, it wasn’t open to all. Only the important clients of BRD Group were eligible to be treated there.
The Anderson Group was nothing compared to the BRD Group. In Ariana’s opinion, Theodore didn’t seem powerful enough to have unrestricted access to Mercy Hospital.
But why did he suggest that hospital so easily? Did he have any connection to BRD Group? How was that even possible? Mercy Hospital was located in the bustling
commercial part of the city. Horace drove the car straight into the underground parking lot. They all got out quickly. Horace swiped a card to open the elevator. It took them all to the top floor of the building.
As soon as the elevator doors swooshed open, Ariana saw that there was a group of doctors waiting there. The hospital’s director bowed and greeted warmly, “Good evening, Mr. Fre-*
Theodore shot him a searing glare, causing the director to correct himself immediately. “Oh! Mr. Anderson, this way please.” He ushered them into a lounge.
Shortly after, the doctors took the little girl away and the director left to examine her himself.
Ariana took a deep breath. She walked up to Theodore and said softly. “Thank you for your help.”
Theodore replied in an indifferent tone, “Why are you thanking me? You don’t have to. Sarah is signed to my company. I’m only doing this because of that. Moreover, | don’t want the press to have a field day over this. The ongoing scandal is already enough problem as itis.”
