Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 400

Chapter 400 As they entered the treatment room , they found a young girl suffering from persistent high fever and intermittent chills .

Bernard was treating her with several nurses , but his frustrated expression suggested he was struggling with the case .

Dr.

Aicker , whats the meaning of this ? Bernard asked unhappily when he saw Andrew .

This patient is under my care .

When it comes to saving lives , it doesnt matter whos in charge what matters is helping the patients , Francesca replied coolly .

Dr.

Aicker , are you saying Im incompetent because I havent cured this child yet ? Bernard snapped angrily .

Before the situation could escalate further , a well dressed man with graying hair the girls father interrupted anxiously .

Dr.

Aicker , can you treat Lucy or not ? If not , Ill transfer her immediately .

We cant waste any more time .

Before Francesca could respond , Bernard quickly put on a pleasant smile .

Dont worry , Mr.

Chapman .

Lucy likely has a viral infection .

Ill identify the virus and prescribe appropriate medication right away ! That doesnt make sense , Marcus Chapman said worriedly .

Lucy has been staying in our villa , and our housekeeper is perfectly fine .

How could she get infected ? With a patronizing smile , Bernard explained , Mr.

Chapman , children have weaker immune systems .

This is quite normal .

Please rest while I cure her immediately ! Andrew observed the interaction , noting that Marcus was likely an important business executive , given Bernards deferential attitude .

However , he could not stay silent about the misdiagnosis .

Your villa is in the countryside , isnt it ? Andrew asked instead .

Surrounded by vegetation or farmland , with lots of mosquitoes ? Marcus eyes widened in surprise .

Thats exactly right .

Our villa is on the rural outskirts of Jayrodale , surrounded by farmland .

But what does that have to do with Lucys condition ? 1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 400 Everything , Andrew explained .

Lucy has malaria from a mosquito bite .

If your villa were in the city , there wouldnt be as many mosquitoes , which is why I made that connection .

Youre truly brilliant for your age !
