Turning Of The Tide By Diana Sander Novel - Season 2 Episode 20

After Natalie left, the air in the ward froze. Time seemed to have stopped. Jim, sitting on the sofa, did

not even dare to breathe loudly. He could only watch quietly as the man sat on the bed and smoked

one cigarette after another.

The room was already filled with smoke Jim could no longer see the man’s face clearly

Jim wanted to stop him but didn’t dare to. If he tried to persuade him now, he might not be far from

Southland.

The non-smoking Jim was choked so much that he was about to move into the ward next door. He

prayed silently in his heart.

Natalie looked at the documents in the office for a while and was about to go to the washroom when

she was stopped by the nurse. “Mrs. Wilson”

The nurse looked a little timid and embarrassed.

Natalie stopped in her tracks. “What’s wrong? There’s something wrong with the patient?”

The nurse shook her head and glanced at the door of Ward 1314. “Mrs. Wilson, can you draw blood for

the patient in this room?”

After saying that, the nurse lowered her head. She also felt that it was inappropriate to make that

request because this was her job, to begin with. She had to draw blood and send a blood test sheet in

room 1314 to the laboratory in the morning. However, she did not dare to go in after receiving the sharp

gaze of the patient.

Actually, Natalie did not want to go in either. After all, they had just had an unpleasant exchange.

However, when she met the nurse’s pitiful eyes, her heart softened. I’m going to the toilet first. Give me

the things later. Just this once.” The nurse had to do it even if she did not dare. Natalie had no

obligation to help her all the time.

After Natalie went to the toilet, site took the equipment from the reception desk and pushed open the

door. Unexpectedly. what greeted her was a wave of choking smoke. Even she, who smoked, found it

difficult to breathe.

She had no choice but to retreat again. She took out the mask from her pocket and put it on. She held

her breath and frowned. She glared at the man on the bed unhappily.

Because the smoke was so thick, Natalie couldn’t see his face clearly when she came in.

She sighed and closed the door. She went to open all the windows in the ward, but the windows on the

higher floors were all very small. They could not be opened fully, so the speed at which the smoke

dissipated was slow.

The smoke dissipated a little with the wind. When he saw who it was. Trevon Wilson looked like a

student who had made. mistake and was caught. He quickly extinguished the cigarette butt, but that

was futile.

ה

Jim was extremely happy when he saw that scene. As expected, Mrs. Wilson had to come and manage

Trevon. Jim almost died in there. He felt extremely bitter.

Natalie was silent for a moment. When she saw the man’s unnecessary action, she looked down at him

again and said in a bad tone, “Mr. Wilson, are you planning for self-immolation or ascension?”

Trevon was caught red-handed. When he met her dissatisfied gaze, he panicked a little. When did he

become so timid: He explained in a low voice, “I stopped smoking just had a sudden urge. I only

smoked a few cigarettes.”

Jim thought to himself, “You call that a few? You had almost two packets. I was afraid you would smoke

yourself to death and take me with you.”

Natalie didn’t want to argue with his lame reason. Her expression was normal as she said, “Do you

want to draw from your right hand or your left hand?”

He replied, “Left hand. He then obediently handed her his hand.

Natalie stretched out her slender hand and tied a device to his arm. She patted the vein and pierced

the needle into the blood vessel. In an instant, the transparent jar was filled with bright red blood.

The moment her cold fingers touched his skin, his chest felt as if it weighed a thousand pounds. He

couldn’t say a word he wanted to say. The numb feeling in his body reminded him that was the feeling

he had been longing for for a long time. Without saying a word, his burning gaze was fixed on her petite

and exquisite face.

He only hoped that she could draw more blood so she would stay longer.

After the blood was drawn, Natalie pressed the cotton ball on his arm. Her tone was not amiable.

“Press it down”

He did as he was told. When Natalie turned around to leave, he did not force her to stay. He just

watched her leave in a daze. She was resolute and did not stop at all. The feeling of her being out of

his reach made him feel suffocated.

Some people said that a hospital was a place of bad luck. It’s filled with sadness, despair, and even

death. If the answer was hospital when asked for one’s location, the one who asked would get the

impression that one was sick

The first impression that hospitals gave people was always bad. Some people even had the idea that

they should not go to the hospital if they could avoid it.

In the afternoon, many neurologists, orthopedists, and obstetrician-gynecologist gathered in the

operating theater of Athana Hospital. They entered the operating theater at the same time to carry out

a heart-wrenching surgery.

There were two groups of people standing outside the operating theater. It was obvious that one was

from the woman’s side, and the other was from the man’s side. Both parties were not friendly.

The nurse at the door nervously entered with a blood bag. Her face was tense.

A five-hour, physically and mentally exhausting operation ended with everyone’s combined efforts. The

pregnant woman was saved, but she did not wake up and was at risk of becoming a vegetable.

As soon as the doctors walked out of the operating theater, they heard an argument at the door.

A woman in gold and silver cursed at another woman in ordinary clothes. “Look at your daughter. Didn’t

my son flirt with others? Is there a need to be so unrelenting? Now that she’s in the hospital, it’s so

unlucky.”

The woman in ordinary clothes did not admit defeat. “Your family has always thought our daughter is

out of your league, but before, we did not want her to marry. It was your son who insisted on the

marriage, not my daughter. Back then, you swore that you would treat her well. It’s only been a few

years, but you’ve already abused her. She’s still a pregnant woman. How can you bear to do that?”

She continued, “Isn’t it just because we find out she’s pregnant with a daughter? Do you think my

daughter did not know your son had an affair when she was pregnant? She had been tolerating it

because she didn’t want to expose it. Who knew that she would end up like this? We don’t want to

climb up to your level. When she wakes up, they will get a divorce. However, we have nothing to lose.

We won’t let this matter rest.”

After saying that, she leaned into the patient’s father’s arms and sobbed.

The woman in gold and silver was about to curse when her son stopped her. “Mom, I was wrong. It was

an accident. I didn’t. want to hit her.”

“If you didn’t want to hit her, would she be hurt so badly? The two of you are getting a divorce.”

Upon hearing divorce, the wife’s parents were encouraged. They rattled on and on. They even

mentioned returning the engagement gifts. The pregnant woman was still recovering from the

anesthesia, and arguments already erupted outside.

The chief surgeon couldn’t stand it anymore and shouted, “What are you doing? Do you think this is a

market? If you want to argue, go out and argue. This is a hospital.”

The people arguing instantly fell silent. During that period, those in gold and silver looked at the other

party in disdain. Meanwhile, the man in branded clothes scratched his head in frustration and half-

squatted in the corner.

Sherri had been standing at the side and watching for a few minutes. She was tempted to go forward

and help, but just as she lifted her foot, her best friend pulled her back and away.
