在野外被三个男人躁一夜

Chapter 603



The wound had already stopped bleeding, but the cut was deep enough. It would require a few stitches for it to close. The doctor checked her other injuries, but it was not serious, just some bruises.

“Do I really need that?” Jacky asked the doctor. “Can you just stitch me up and send us on our way?”

She was still hoping that she could catch up with the dinner party. She was not too keen on attending the celebration. But she would like to be there for her friend, at least give her moral support.

However, she ended up in the emergency room because of a minor casualty. She had no one else to blame for this except herself. She should have been more careful.

She did not see the piece of an object lying on the floor. It must have fallen from her things by accident. Unfortunately, she was rushing around the room and had stepped on it. Then, she slipped.

“Did you blackout or feel any dizziness?” The doctor asked, continuing his evaluation by asking several more questions.

.....

“Well, a slight dizziness and a lot of pain.” She answered the old man in the white coat.

She did not remember blacking out. She had braced herself for the impact with her hands, breaking the fall. Although she still failed to protect her head from banging on the edge of the bed.

It produced a broken skin above her head, producing a lot of blood which slightly caused her alarm. But it was still not something that would make her panic and send her running to the hospital.

“I still recommend that you take the tests.” The doctor insisted, wanting to rule out head trauma.

Still, she did not agree that she had to stay for further tests. She had been in worse conditions than this, but she did not see the need to go to the doctor.

She could just patch it up and continue with her day. But Marcus insisted on bringing her into the emergency room as if she was in critical condition when he saw her hands and hair covered in blood.

“Just do what you think is necessary, Doc. If you think she needs the test, please schedule it now.” Marcus finally interrupted the consultation.

He believed if he did not step in, she would check herself out of the hospital without getting tested. He did not like to put her health at risk, especially with a head injury like hers.

She could treat her situation lightly, but he would not. Her safety and wellbeing were his priority, and he would have her tested whether she agreed with him or not.

“But...” She was about to protest, believing that she did not need any test. She might have been slightly dizzy earlier, but she currently felt normal.

She did feel a little soar on her knees and hands since they bumped on the floor. Other than the small cut in her head, she did not see any other reason for concern.

She could walk out of the hospital without any assistance if she wanted to, and nobody could stop her. However, the look on his face made her halt with her plans.

“Please. Have yourself examined thoroughly. If the test comes back and finds nothing wrong with you, we will immediately leave the hospital.” He promised her, but until then, they would have to stay and wait.

He still felt lucky that he decided to come early to pick her up. He found her in her apartment bleeding with a handtowel placed on her head as she tried to stop the gush of blood from the open skin.

He immediately called the emergency hotline and helped her apply first aid to the affected area. Then, waited. He also did not like going to the hospital, just like her, but he believed it was necessary.

“Fine. But I am telling you now that there is nothing wrong with me. You will see.” Jacky stated, telling not only Marcus but the doctor as well.

“I am sure you are right, but nothing wrong with being extra careful.” The doctor still insisted in his calm voice. “Let me schedule the test right away, and I will get back to you shortly.”

The doctor temporarily left them after finishing cleaning her wound. He called one of the nurses to arrange the test and assist them while attending to his other patients.

As soon as the test was done, she returned to her bed to wait for the results. The doctor also suggested that she could have herself admitted so they could observe her overnight, but she adamantly refused.

“Excuse me, but I will just call Alex and inform them of what happened,” Marcus told her, moving to a chair near her bed.

He immediately took his phone out of his pocket and called Alex to inform them of the situation. He knew they would be expecting them at the party, but he doubted that they would make it in time.

“Can you also pass me my bag?” Jacky asked him, seeing that she had no choice but to call Dani about her condition.

She did not want her friend to worry about her when there was nothing to worry about. She still believed there was nothing wrong with her. But she understood Marcus. He was only looking out for her.

She also took her phone inside her bag and called Dani. She had to make her excuses and just made it up to her next time. In the meantime, she would wait for the test to come back, clearing her of good health.

“So, what seems to be the problem...?” The doctor who opened the curtain separating her from the other patients was not the same doctor that checked her earlier.

He suddenly stopped, slightly stunned to see who was the patient behind the curtain. He immediately double-checked the notepad in his hand and realized that she was his next patient.

He had been thinking about her recently, hearing about the news regarding her friends. He had planned to visit her, but he guessed fate could not wait and had decided to meddle with their accidental reunion.
