2025-02-28 18:21:19Unscathed, Marcus returned to the hospital. He once again stood before the window of the emergency ward to see Lilly resting on the bed, her eyes shut in unconsciousness. Seeing her in such a deteriorating state, Marcus' heart bled painfully. Her health condition seemed not to change a bit.
“You’re here Mr Marcus.” The voice of the doctor in charge of Lilly's treatment came from behind. Marcus turned to see him staring at him, his expression was pitiful and helpless. “I’m..I’m so sorry to announce that the free treatment charge for your sister has been withdrawn. You need to start paying for..” “By who?” Marcus interrupted him, a hint of anger in his voice. “I don't know sir..only the manager knows.” The doctor said, his voice wavering with anxiety. “Call me the manager now!” Marcus instructed authoritatively, the command in his tone amazed the doctor. He had never seen a man looking so poor and arrogant! Was he really expecting to call the manager? His status isn't even worth a quarter of Ava's attention. A poor man commanding the rich, that’s hilarious! “What.. what did you say sir?” The doctor stuttered, his tone brimming with doubts, trying not to betray his maturity and professionalism by outwardly scoffing at Marcus for the statement he just uttered carelessly. “You heard me clearly, call the manager now!” Marcus repeated confidently making the doctor agitated if he was joking or playing a prank. It can either be any of the two. He can't be serious! The doctor scoffed audibly, casting Marcus a condescending gaze for an empty display of pride. “And who are you?” The doctor eyed him up and down, his gaze taunting. “A president or some kind of celebrity? A poor celebrity I guess. You can't even afford to pay for the hospital bill and you're here ranting, thinking your empty pride will pay the bills!” Marcus faced contorted, and a tight frown expressed on his face. “Is this the level of your professionalism here? Is this how you treat the customers when they seek to see the manager!” He shrieked, anger dripping in his voice. The doctor scoffed. “Talking about the level of professionalism? Do you have the money to afford that? Take a proper look at yourself.. you're horrib..” “What is going on here?” Fortunately, Ava came to the scene before it escalated. He looked between the doctor and Marcus to see anger burning in his eye. The doctor turned to Ava and began explaining.“This thing here..I mean this man here wants to cause a scene here because the free treatment for his sister has been withdrawn.” He said. “Is that true Mr. Hayes?” She looked at Marcus. “You need to sack this man here. I only requested to see you. I want..” “I understand Mr. Hayes.” Ava cut him off with a smile though her intention was to preserve his dignity in the presence of the doctor because she thought Marcus couldn't afford the hospital bill. “We have other wards which are not costly like this. We'll ensure your sister gets proper treatment from there.” She added genuinely, her smile unwavering. The doctor fumed, stinging in discomfort as Ava was talking to Marcus calmly and offering to help him. “But the lesser wards don't have the necessary equipment for her treatment. She should be transferred to a local hospital!” The doctor suggested maliciously, his enmity for Marcus propelling him to go against him. Ava was stunned by the unapproachable suggestion but she quickly masked it with a forced smile. “No doc, you should equip the less costly ward for her. She deserves better treatment for someone in her health status.” She said and turned to Marcus with a professional smile. “The treatment cost there will be affordable sir.” Marcus went dumb for some moments, staring at Ava. She was the first person to ever treat him nicely, disregarding his unwelcoming look and offering to help him too. Ava frowned, taking his silence for helplessness. “You won't be able to afford a lesser ward?” The doctor almost laughed out seeing how quiet Marcus had become. He definitely doesn't have a penny in his account! The doctor cleared his throat to add more fire to belittle him. “I think we should just trans..” “I want My sister transferred to a Vip ward. Give her the best treatment and..” He turned to the doctor. “I don't want this man here inside her ward. I don't want to see his face around either!” Marcus declared boldly, his declaration uttered with pride and confidence, leaving the duo hanging in shock which was etched all over their face. The doctor almost bursted into laughter but he pulled himself together, restraining an emotional outbursts but blowing away the last air of respect he had for Marcus and neglecting the presence of Ava who he revered. “Vip ward? Do you think this is a joke? You can't even afford the cheapest ward here and you want the VIP ward?!” He finally erupted in laughter. Just then, Ava's phone chimed, breaking the tensions in the air. “Hello…sir.” She picked up instantly, seeing the call from the hospital and hospital lawyer. “Sir!!” She suddenly exclaimed, her eyes widened in shock. “A new owner!..You mean Marcus Hayes is the new owner of the Twinkles hotel and the hospital!!” She looked at Marcus with the widened eye, doubt flashing within. Hearing that, the smile on the doctor's face faltered, replaced with a fearful look. Ava dropped the call slowly, her heart beating faster than initial. She couldn't look Marcus in the face, feeling disappointed for not being professional enough yet she still finds it hard to believe she was just being told he's the new owner of Twinkles hospital! She forced herself to look up, her expression apologetic “Sir..I am sorry..I never knew…” “Just fire him!!” Marcus cut her off.
