A Whisper that went unheard novel Chapter 96

Chapter 96 

jeremy drove off in his Maybach Having left the residential area, his eyes flickered toward a nearby pharmacy that was still brightly lit. However, before he could dwell on it, his phone rang for the third time that night, Indicating that the hospital’s situation had become quite dire. 

It seemed like the patient’s condition had reached acritical state, and Benson, along with another specialist, was taking turns standing guard in the hospital ward to prevent any complications. He immediately pushed all other thoughts aside and stepped on the gas, driving straight to the hospital, 

In a state of delirium, Melody telt herself swinging between feverish warmth and sudden chills. She tried but failed to open her eyes, so she simply curled up in a fetal position. 

It was already bright outside when she finally woke up with her forehead slick with sweat and her clothes stuck uncomfortably to her skin. Though she still felt lightheaded and weak, she forced herself up and slowly walked back to her room. It was then that she suddenly received a call from Felicia, which she promptly answered, saying, “Hello.” 

As soon as she said that, Melody suddenly realized her throat was dry and aching, and her voice had become notably hoarse. 

Felicia asked, sounding surprised, “What happened to you?” 

“I’ve come down with a bit of a cold.” 

Felicia hummed in acknowledgment before saying, “You should get some rest then. I just wanted to let you know that Madam Callahan tried calling you earlier, but since you didn’t answer, she called me instead and asked me to check on you.” 

Melody rubbed her temples and asked, “What’s the matter?” 

“It’s about yesterday’s incident. Madam Callahan mentioned that after going back to the orphanage last night, she and some of the employees had checked all the food in the orphanage and found nothing amiss.” 

Melody stated slowly. “They won’t be able to detect anything themselves. They should get the local health department involved to handle this.” 

“I thought so too, so I already went ahead and contacted them I just wanted to let you know to put your mind at ease.” 

Melody couldn’t help but feel touched, knowing that Felicia had made all the necessary arrangements. In fact, Felicia had no obligation to do any of this. Having been raised as the second heiress of the York family, Felicia had been accustomed to a life of affluence. It was only when she went to school and met Melody and Jason that she became aware that orphanages still existed. 

Melody said earnestly, “I really can’t thank you enough–having you as a friend is the most fortunate thing that has ever happened to me, Felicia.” 

Felicia quickdy stopped her, saying, “You shouldn’t speak anymore, Mel. Your voice is a mess right now. You should go get some rest.” 

Having ended the call with Felicia, Melody called in sick to her department. Her condition at the time made it impossible to go to the hospital for work. She didn’t have the energy for it, and more importantly, she didn’t want to risk infecting the patients. 

Melody had been reassigned to a night shift. She ordered food, took her medicine, and slept until she felt much better. Having just arrived at her department, she raniato Tiffany, who gave her a playful wink, saying, “Your darling Dr. Chesson was a total heartthrob today!” 

Melody hesitated for a moment before Tittany exclaimed dramatically, “He drove a Maybach to work today! I’d be the happiest woman alive if my boyfriend drove that kind of car!”
