Chapter 46 No Money to Discharge
Nina Morrison wakes up the next morning.
She opens her eyes and only to see a nurse. "Excuse me, where am I, please?" Asks Nina Morrison
politely.
"Oh, don't you know? You are in St. Ann's Hospital."
St. Ann's? The city's top private one. Nina's eyes sparkle. Great! Dad is also in this hospital, waiting for
surgery!
Lucien Gray has been haunting her for days. She just wants to visit her father today. He's the only
family she has.
When the nurse left, Nina Morrison takes off the needle from her hand and walks toward the ICU.
"Nina... You are here... What... Patient clothes?" Barry Morrison, lying on the bed, is very happy to see
his daughter. He is now able to say short sentences. Nina is pleased. The pain in the lower abdomen
does not seem obvious either.
"Dad, I am fine. I just have a cold. I come to the hospital for an infusion." Nina Morrison replies with
ease.
"Nina... Dad, get well, pay back the money. You... have to study hard..." Barry looks at the daughter
with relief, naively thinking that the medical expense is really borrowed by his daughter.
"All right. Dad, stop talking and have a good rest." Nina holds dad's hands and asks the nurse next to
her, "When is my father's surgery going to take place?"
The nurse shakes her head and says, "I'm not sure. We have to wait for a matching kidney. But your
father is too weak to undergo big surgery. He has to get better."
Nina Morrison sighs. She owes Lucien Gray more and more. She begins to wonder if she could
afford...
Barry is so weak that after a few homely chats with Nina, he falls asleep.
"Nurse, how can I get the discharge formalities?" Nina Morrison asks at the first floor lobby guide.
There is an important class today, and she wants to get out of here and go to school.
"Why are you here? I have been looking for you everywhere!" The nurse looks at Nina angrily. "You
have a premonitory abortion. You need to be careful! "
"Abortion?" Nina Morrison just freezes! She cannot be pregnant! Every time she finishes with Lucien
Gray, she will sneak up on the pill! How is it possible?
Suddenly her face turns pale and her teeth clenches against her lips. Was it that night? That horrible
night, she did not even see the man's face! She is pregnant with his baby!
She is only 18 and her life is just beginning. She is not ready to be a mother! Nina Morrison clenches Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
her bloodless lips and turns pale.
What should I do? Does Lucien Gray know about it? What would he do? What if he shut down the
contract and dad's surgery? Nina is in a muddle.
"Miss, if you want to leave hospital, you have to pay the bill first". The nurse is accustomed to looking at
Nina, who is shaking all over.
When she sees the bill from the nurse, Nina gets dizzy, since she can impossible afford to the long
string of "0" even if you sell her! It is merely first aid. Why would it cost so much?
Nina mutters, pulls out her wallet, counts out five hundred-dollar bills, and talks to the nurse, "Can I pay
part of the bill first?"
"No! All must be settled!" The nurse replies.
