Love at the Wrong Table - Season 4 Episode 32

Mackenzie wasted no time and went straight to the point.

“Oh, which patient?” Juan furrowed his brows, thinking someone from the

Quillen family had encountered an accident. He was puzzled when the lady

mentioned Ryder’s name. While he had some knowledge about the patient’s

condition, he hadn’t had the chance to visit him due to his busy schedule. He

couldn’t help but wonder who this person was to be able to get Mackenzie to

intervene on his behalf.

However, instead of clarifying his doubts with Mackenzie, Juan nodded and

got his assistant to accompany them. They walked together toward Ryder’s

hospital room, and to their surprise, they found other people there who were

treating Ryder, even though it was just an ordinary ward.

“Dr. Brooks, is that you?” Juan was taken aback when he saw an old man

examining Ryder’s condition. It turned out to be Zander Brooks, a renowned

doctor in the southern region of Chanaea. Zander wasn’t professionally

trained, but he operated his own clinic, catering specifically to high–ranking

officials and wealthy individuals. He garnered a reputation through his

successful treatment of numerous influential figures. So much so that even

Juan, the director of a conventional hospital, held him in high esteem.

“Haha, Mr. Gomez, I’ve heard good things about you! A pleasure to meet you!”

Zander greeted Juan respectfully, acknowledging his position as the

hospital’s director. Both assistants on either side were equally surprised by

the encounter.

Initially, they thought that the man was lucky enough to have Zander come

specifically to treat him. However, they never expected to find two prominent

figures from the medical community in Yeringham to be present. If they

didn’t know any better, they would have assumed that the patient was a

high–ranking official or a wealthy individual.

Though, Mackenzie’s attention wasn’t on Zander but rather on Claudette, who

was also in the hospital room. Both young ladies from prominent families in

Yeringham were surprised to see each other there. However, it seemed

reasonable, considering that both of them loved Emmanuel deeply. Because

of this, each of them invited a renowned doctor to treat his cousin.

“That’s great! With so many people helping my dad, he’ll definitely wake up!”

Tommy exclaimed hopefully with a twinkle in his eyes.

“You must be Tommy, right? Emmanuel has mentioned you to me.” Claudette

hurried over while smiling gently at him. “I’ve invited Dr. Brooks to treat your

dad. He will find a way to wake him up!”

With that, she reached out to pat Tommy’s head. However, Mackenzie

forcefully pulled the boy to her side and stared coldly at Claudette. “Tommy,

having Mr. Gomez is more than enough to cure your dad!” The innocent

Tommy, who had no idea what was going on, looked on confusedly. He

couldn’t understand why the two drop–dead gorgeous women were

competing over something.

The surrounding assistants were even more astonished. These were the two

young ladies from the most prominent families in Yeringham, so they

couldn’t fathom why they were fighting to treat this man in the hospital bed.

It would be understandable if the man were a wealthy and handsome

bachelor, but at a glance, it was evident he was a country bumpkin. They

couldn’t help but wonder the reason behind all this.

The two prominent figures in the medical community, who were glad to meet

each other, felt somewhat awkward as they witnessed the open competition

between the two women from prominent families. They weren’t sure whether

to continue flattering each other or side with the women who brought them

there.

While Zander hesitated, Juan took the lead and spoke with a smile, “Dr.

Brooks, have you found a solution? Can we discuss it together?“. As the

director of the hospital, he held noble medical ethics, and since he had

come, he intended to help the patient who had been unconscious for several

days to regain consciousness.

“Well, I haven’t found a solution yet. It would be best if both of us discuss it

together. If we can brainstorm, that would be great!” Zander extended an

invitation, considering it was Juan’s territory. Despite having some pride,

Zander still had to show respect to Juan.
