Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle
Chapter 2825 Postoperative Results Turned Out To Be Less Than Satisfactory

"Is there a neurosurgery department at Mercy Hospital?" asked Luca. If she was going to a hospital, she did not have to be afraid of encountering fraudsters.

Since something really happened to Sarah, she could not turn a blind eye to it. After all, she had already received the call.

"Yes. Can you come now?" the woman from the other end of the line asked again.

"I'll head there now." Luca hung up the call and informed Warren.

When Warren said he was standing by at the parking lot and ready to drive her anywhere, Luca quickly changed her clothes and prepared to leave.

Mo Stone saw Luca enter the office. Luca was wearing a coat and carrying a briefcase. She pulled out a leave application form and asked, "Dr. Craw, are you taking a leave of absence?"

"Yes. There's something I need to attend to," Luca took the form and filled it out. She was asking for personal leave.

She had taken quite a few days off recently. Fortunately, the project had not officially started yet. Her absence would not delay it.

Mo Stone did not say anything. She took the form from Luca and glanced at it. After she saw that Luca was asking for personal leave, she smiled and said, "Dr. Craw, go ahead and take care of your business."

"Okay." Luca nodded, too preoccupied to worry about anything else. She immediately headed downstairs.

The person on the phone said that Sarah was admitted to the hospital with a brain disease.

If it was a brain disease, it would be perilous. Therefore, Luca tried to arrive at the hospital as soon as possible to understand the situation.

Luca arrived at the parking lot and got into the car. Warren asked, "Ms. Craw, where would you like to go?"

"Mercy Hospital," replied Luca.

When he heard her say that, he momentarily froze, his fingers pausing on the navigation screen. Luca had been going to hospitals in the city center for the past few days. Why was she going to Mercy Hospital all of a sudden?

After Warren entered the destination, he started the car engine and drove out of the parking lot. Then, he asked, "Dr. Craw, why are you going to Mercy Hospital?"

"A friend of mine fell sick. She's receiving treatment there,” explained Luca. She did not really see Sarah as a friend.

However, since the hospital contacted her, she did not know what would happen to Sarah if she did not go there.

Luca believed that fate played a role in this world. Since the hospital contacted her, she decided to make the trip.

"Mercy Hospital isn't known for its expertise. How could your friend be treated there?" Warren could not help but ask.

Luca's friends should have a higher status. How could they receive treatment at a small hospital like Mercy Hospital?

If it were a minor illness, Warren did not think Luca would bother to visit...

"I'm not sure either, but let's go and see,” said Luca, remembering what the person on the phone said. She was worried that they might be deliberately deceiving her to go there.

After all, she only had a brief encounter with Sarah. Even though she did not seem like a bad person, Luca thought it was better to be cautious. "Warren, come up with me later."

"Sure." Warren vaguely sensed that something was wrong. Luca's expression was not too good. Mercy Hospital was quite far from the city center, but Watson's location was already on the outskirts. Warren realized the urgency of the situation and drove quickly, taking less than 20 minutes to arrive there and park in the Mercy Hospital parking lot.

Warren followed Luca's instructions. He parked the car and then got out of it. Then, he followed Luca to the hospital.

It was Luca's first time coming to Mercy Hospital. She was completely unfamiliar with the layout. However, she did not waste any time and went straight to the hospital lobby to inquire about the floor where the neurosurgery department was located. After that, she hurriedly headed upstairs. Mercy Hospital was not a large hospital to begin with, consisting of only ten floors with the neurosurgery department located on the sixth floor.

Luca took the elevator and arrived on the sixth floor. She followed the hospital's signs to the neurosurgery department.

Meanwhile, Warren noticed where Luca was heading to. He reported to Luke about it while following her.

Luca approached the nurse's station and asked, "Hello, I received a phone call saying that Ms. Poplar is hospitalized here. Is that correct?”

The nurse did not even check the computer and replied to Luca when she saw her. "Finally, someone came. Are you a friend of Sarah's? Come with me."

Luca did not find the nurse's behavior strange. After all, departments like the neurosurgery department at Mercy Hospital were usually not crowded.

If someone was really suffering from any brain-related diseases, they would not choose this hospital to receive treatment just to save costs. The complexity of brain diseases required highly skilled doctors to cure. Patients would usually go to general hospitals.

Therefore, there were not many patients in the ward. It was normal for the nurse to remember Sarah.

Sarah's ward was next to the nurse's station.

Luca frowned as it was an unwritten rule in every hospital that wards located near the nurse's station and doctor's office were reserved for patients with more severe conditions

The nurse asked again, "Are you a friend of Sarah's?"

Sarah had foreign facial features, and she claimed not to have any relatives. That was why the nurse did not consider Luca as a close relative.

"Sort of..." Luca replied and walked into the ward, where she saw the patient lying on the bed. There was a white bandage wrapped around her head. She remained still with monitoring devices beeping while recording her vital signs. She was also attached to an IV drip.

Despite all this, Luca could not shake off the uneasy feeling. Sarah's condition was not looking good.

"What happened to her?" asked Luca.

"She was diagnosed with cerebral vascular malformation a few years ago. She was undergoing conservative treatment due to insufficient funds and took medication from our hospital. But the malformation ruptured. Fortunately, her part-time job employer brought her here, and the doctors performed surgery on her. However, the hemostasis wasn't very effective. That's just how our neurosurgery department is. Now, the doctors are recommending transferring the patient to another hospital. But her employer refuses to make that decision and hasn't taken any further action after bringing her here. Also, we couldn't contact any of her family members. The doctors said that if she doesn't undergo a second surgery soon, the chances of her waking up will be slim. But our hospital's doctors don't recommend her having a second surgery here in Mercy. We had no choice but to search her wallet. That's how we found your business card. The assistant to the hospital director called you to see if you could make a decision for her..." explained the nurse.

The nurse had to admit that the doctors® skills at Mercy were average, so she confided in Luca about their helplessness.

They wanted to save the patient, but the hospital could not do much.

The problem was that the patient had not left any contact information for them to reach her family. She was still in a coma, and she was unable to make decisions for herself.

Luca furrowed her brows and asked, "Why didn't you transfer the patient to a higher-level hospital when she was brought here?”

"Her employer said that the patient specifically mentioned our hospital before losing consciousness. After bringing her here, the employer didn't care about the surgery's result and just left,” answered the nurse with a helpless look on her face.

The hospital was powerless when it came to treating a comatose patient. The doctors prioritized the patient's well-being, and they reluctantly performed surgery on Sarah.

However, the postoperative results turned out to be less than satisfactory.
