Chapter 401 Andrew said , Mr.
Chapman , please wait outside .
This is a treatment room , and its best not to have non medical personnel present .
He added confidently , As for Lucy , give me half an hour , and shell be perfectly fine .
Marcus was stunned by the young doctors composure and confidence .
After all , Bernard had been frantically trying to help his beloved daughter without success , yet Andrew claimed he only needed 30 minutes .
Seeing his hesitation , Francesca smiled and said , Dont worry , Mr.
Chapman .
Youre an executive at the Rhodes family corporation and one of Laurens people .
Lucy will receive the best care possible in our facility .
Marcus nodded and said , Alright , Ill wait outside for Dr.
Lloyds good news .
However , let me be clear Lucys well being is non negotiable .
Bernards face darkened considerably as he asked .
Dr.
Lloyd , are you stealing my patient ? He had hoped to establish a connection with Marcus , but those plans seemed to be falling apart , which deeply frustrated him .
Andrew frowned and replied , Dr.
Hackett , I believe saving lives is what matters most .
If you feel Im stealing your patient , you can continue the treatment Ive already identified the cause Bernards expression fluctuated between anger and uncertainty .
Malaria was not a joke .
It was extremely difficult to treat .
He snorted and stepped aside , saying , Never mind .
Since Mr.
Chapman has requested your care , I should know my place .
Andrew said nothing and began treating Lucy .
Francesca watched with contempt , thinking how calculating Bernard was the moment he heard it was malaria , with its potent ….
ly fatal complications , he immediately backed off .

She believed his excessive ambition would ultimately limit his success .
Half an hour later , Andrew emerged from the treatment room .
Marcus , who had been anxiously waiting , immediately asked , Dr.
Lloyd , how is Lucy ? Andrew smiled and replied , Why dont you go see for yourself , Mr.
Chapman ? In the hospital room , Lucy had regained consciousness .
Though slightly pale , she called out , Daddy ! Marcus nodded repeatedly with joy , noting how much better his daughter looked compared to before .
Francesca advised , Mr.
Chapman , let her rest for a while .
Malaria isnt something to be taken 1/2 +25 BONUS lightly .
Shell need to stay for observation .
Marcus happily agreed , Of course , whatever you and Dr.
Lloyd recommend .
Bernard attempted one last connection , saying , Mr.
Chapman , would you like to have tea in my office ? However , Marcus declined , No need to trouble yourself , Dr.
Hackett .
Id rather spend some time in Dr.
Lloyds office .
Bernard had not expected such a direct rejection .
His face reddened with anger as he shot Andrew with a resentful look before storming off Marcus scoffed , Ive heard about Bernards poor character his jealousy and pursuit of fame .
Dr.
Lloyd , be careful working in the same hospital as him .
Andrew smiled and responded , Thank you for the warning , Mr.
Chapman , b already harbors a deep hatred for me .
Were sworn enemies , careful or not .
but Dr.
Hackett Marcus said coldly , I despise people who cause trouble despite their lack of ability .
From now on , Dr.
Lloyd , just call me Marcus if you need anything , Ill be glad to help .
Andrew replied , Im not sure if Ill need anything from you in the future , but I do have something Id like to ask you now .
Then , Andrew showed Marcus to his office , where he asked Nyla to prepare tea for their guest .
Once settled , he carefully asked , Mr.
Chapman , as an executive at the Rhodes family corporation , you must know something about Ms.
Rhodes current situation ?
