You're The Best Medicine For Me -
Chapter 32: Shirley Lashed Out Aggressively at the Scum
The moment Shirley had rushed to the ward that Bryan was admitted to, she could perceive two rows of people which had consisted of the medical personnel and those from the Moore family standing in the
corridor.
On the other hand, Sabrina was being supported by two maidservants while her countenance looked ashen.
When Scarlett had caught sight of Shirley, she hurriedly trotted towards her to greet her like she had finally met her savior, and she uttered while clasping her hands, "You've finally arrived, Dr. Thomas." She sounded like she was about to break into tears at any moment while her eyes had also reddened.
A wave of sympathy had struck Shirley once she took in the sight of Scarlett's pitiful state, and she promptly asked, "How's Mr. Moore's condition right now?"
Jasmine, the housemaid whom was supporting Scarlett by her side replied, "Our young master has started to run a low fever at around twelve noon, but his temperature has risen to 42 degrees now. He doesn't allow the nurses to give him the required shots, and he has even dumped all the medicine that has been sent into the room into the rubbish bin. Furthermore, he has harmed a few nurses whom have gone inside, so no one has been able to persuade him to receive his treatments so far."
Scarlett nodded in agreement and grasped Shirley's hand tightly as she said, "Bryan refuses to take his medication so his high fever has not come down at all, Dr. Thomas. I have exhausted all means to try to get him to receive his medical treatments but it's to no avail, so that's why I'm only calling for your help as my last resort. I know he has greatly upset you again this morning, so I will apologize on my grandson's behalf!"
"Madame Moore." Jasmine called out to her in a distressed manner.
Scarlett was born in the purple and had married into the well-known Moore family which was on par with her own, so she had always enjoyed the riches and honor all her life and had never bowed her head to anyone like this before.
Sabrina whom was standing by was seized with insane jealousy when she had taken in the scene of Scarlett humbling asking for Shirley's favor.
Scarlett had never shown her any form of kind attitude in the past six years of her being by Bryan's side, and she would only dismiss her with some money while putting on a cold look at the very most. This was the first time that Sabrina had seen Scarlett swallowing her pride and lowering her head in front of someone else, and that person was... merely a psychiatrist. She...
Was she really that impressive!
Shirley grabbed Scarlett's palm backhandedly and uttered, "You've overstated the matter, Madame Moore. Let's not talk about the incident this morning for now. I'll head in and have a look at him." She turned around at once after giving her reassurances and pushed open the door to head inside the ward before the doctors could even stop her.
Sabrina was unwilling to reconcile to being kicked out, hence she hurriedly said after setting her sight on Shirley whom was going inside the ward, "How about I go in with you, Dr. Thomas?"
Shirley abruptly turned around when she was just about to reach the door after taking a few strides forward, and she cast her an indifferent glance as she asked, "Do you know how to put someone on the intravenous drip?"
Sabrina's steps were halted the moment that question was being thrown at her, and she replied while biting her lips, "It's the nurse's job to do that."
How could she possibly carry out this kind of service for others? The nurses were as lowly as the restaurant waiters/waitresses in her eye; hence she had always regarded them as inferior to her. When Shirley had asked her that question, Sabrina instantly felt like she was being humiliated.
"What do... you mean by that, Dr. Thomas?"
"Why would you come in with me when you don't even know how to put someone on a drip?" Shirley rebuked her right away without even saving her any face, and she pointed at another direction in the next moment, "Hand me the stuffs in your hands."
The nurse whom was holding on to the medicine tray quickly walked towards her to pass them to her.
After Shirley had received the medicine tray with both her hands, her sight was set on Sabrina again as she drew in a deep breath, and the pungent smell of her perfume had invaded her nose and senses at
once.
Shirley took a step towards Sabrina and lowered her head to smell her clothes.
Sabrina was taken aback by her action as she instantly took a step backwards and asked, "What do you think you're doing, Dr. Thomas?"
"Did you go into the room just now?" Since Shirley had bumped into her again, how could she easily pass up such an amazing opportunity to lambast this scum?
Sabrina swiftly took a glance at her own clothing with an uneasy look on her face.
Scarlett whom was standing beside them all this while had also shot an inquiring gaze towards Sabrina as her countenance fell in a swift.
Sabrina replied after a moment of pause, "Yes, I did. It couldn't be more normal for me to stay with him when he's so gravely ill."
Her statement had intended to imply that she was Bryan's woman.
Even though she clearly knew that Scarlett had always disapproved of the fact that outsiders could have gotten the wrong impression of her status in the Moore family if she were to say it like that, but she had refused to concede defeat in front of Shirley.
However, Shirley's focus of attention was not on whether Sabrina was Bryan's woman at all.
She scanned Sabrina's body up and down for three times with her piercing gaze as she uttered, "I don't care how you have dressed up before this, but please bear in mind to refrain from wearing such a heavy perfume and to not put on any makeup, not to mention even going near him not long after you have done your hair if you want to visit Mr. Moore during my entire treatment period with him. This is especially crucial during his resting period as all these scents which you have worn on your body will interfere with the perfume that I have used on him, thereby directly disturbing the quality of his sleep."
Shirley faintly withdrew her eyes from Sabrina while keeping a straight face after telling her off, and she pushed open the door to march into the ward right after.
Sabrina whom was left behind was stupefied by Shirley's harsh statement as she glared at the door that was slowly closing on her.
She had always been the well-known fashion influencer in the entertainment industry with her extremely classy attires and even her exquisite perfume taste.
However, all her impeccable taste had been picked to pieces by a mere psychiatrist tonight, and her proud merits had instantly become a misdeed which was unsavory and unacceptable.
How dared she said that to her!!
"You have been here with our young master for quite a few hours, Miss Thomas, so why not you go on and head back first?" Jasmine's voice suddenly rang in the corridor.
Sabrina abruptly came back to her senses and shot her gaze towards Scarlett at once, but Scarlett had turned her whole body sideways and looked away the moment Sabrina's eyes were set on her to avert her gaze.
Sabrina knew that she would not be able to change their minds no matter what she was to say with the presence of Paisley here, hence she just gave up on putting up a struggle to try to stay as she left quickly after sending her regards.
Scarlett shook her head and sighed secretly as she watched Sabrina's disappearing back figure, "Book two rooms for me at the hotel next door, I will stay here for a few days to accompany Bryan." "Jordan had already made all the necessary arrangements for it."
"Mm." Scarlett had also left with Jasmine after confirming with her own eyes that Bryan had taken his medicine and received his shot, and a plot had started to brew in her mind when she was on her way out... After Shirley had marched into the ward, she swiftly put Bryan on the intravenous drip and handed him his medicine while wearing an extremely sullen look on her face.
While all the others were extremely frightened of him, she was not afraid of him at all.
It was obvious that he had kicked up a tremendous fuss tonight just to force her to come to him.
Bryan stared at her distant manner that blatantly exuded her refusal to have any communication with him with his brows deeply furrowed, but he remained silent as he was at a loss as to the way to initiate the conversation.
The words that he had wanted to bring up to her were nothing but to persuade Shirley to continue in her post as his psychiatrist, but on the other hand, he was not willing to come to terms with the issue regarding her two children.
He was also dumfounded by his own abnormally obsessive behavior towards the kids as all he wanted was just to get close to them even though they were obviously not his children, and the thought of snatching them away from her had even crossed his mind.
It was at this moment that Shirley had brought out a bottle of perfume from her scent bag, and she promptly placed it under his pillow.
A familiar scent exuding from the perfume immediately invaded Bryan's senses, and he subconsciously turned his head around to glimpse at the bottle, "What scent is this?"
"This perfume is made for the treatment of insomnia, depression and mania." Although Shirley's countenance was still cold as ice, her tone was much milder and calmer than this morning.
Bryan gave her a glance as he uttered with a tone that had softened unconsciously, "This morning..."
