chapter 15 Make things difficult

The lobby of emergency room was as busy as ever.
"Get out of the way, the patient is bleeding heavily and is in shock. Prepare for surgery..."
Among many hurried nurses, a stretcher cart shuttled quickly. Alexander Ludwig and Charlotte Timberlake quickly got out of the way, not because they were afraid of hitting themselves, but because they were afraid that the patients on the stretcher would be bumped.
Sometimes people are really fragile, and even the slightest touch may cause them to lose their lives. Alexander had been adhering to the ancestral teachings since he was a child. So he would never allow anyone to lose their life because of his negligence.
Watching the stretcher leave, although the hall was still busy, it seemed much calmer in comparison. Alexander and Charlotte stood there, looking for Emily York everywhere.
Along the way, Charlotte introduced some information about Emily to him.
Emily was 47 years old. She was obsessed with the research of traditional Chinese medicine. She was a professor at the Westlomrio City College of Traditional Chinese Medicine before. However, she resigned due to illness. The cause of the disease is very simple. After catching a cold, she stopped sweating when her body became hot. itch.
However, since she resigned, she has been transferred to major hospitals in Westlomrio City and seen many new and old doctors. No matter who they were, they could not cure her disease.
This was not because the doctor was incompetent, but because she refused to take medicine and asked the doctor to treat her with diet therapy.
It stood to reason that if a patient refused to take medicine, then the doctor had no responsibility and could ignore her, washed his hands and watched from the sidelines. If he was really bored, he could eat melon seeds and had the fun, or even cursed a few words to relieved his anger.
But Emily was not an ordinary person. Her husband was Gabriel Layton, the deputy director of the Provincial Department of Health. He was the immediate boss of all medical staff in Zavyhill Province. In front of all medical staff, he was a figure who could say, "I am the King of Laws", and no one could dare to argue.
Although Emily had no official position, she had a powerful husband. So it was a lot of trouble for everyone that she did not take medicine but asked the doctor for retreatment again and again.
Therefore, when Emily came here in the past, the hospital leaders warmly received her, but over time they were too tired to come.
It was unlucky for Charlotte to be responsible for this woman. But she couldn't do anything thing because she had no background and was an intern.
Alexander felt unworthy for Charlotte.
Those old illnesses such as rheumatism, whooping cough, and migraine couldn't be cured. She shouldn't take it out on her. After all, the effects of treatment in most hospitals were the same. Those patients who blamed her were really unjust.
Moreover, she finally encountered a high-ranking official who was ill. If she was given the right medicine, which would have been an opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune, but she didn't take medicine and required dietary therapy...
This was really crazy.
Take medicine when you were sick. This was a logic that all children knew. Diet therapy could cure diseases, but diet therapy had extremely high requirements for doctors. This was already equivalent to the realm in martial arts where flying flowers, bamboo and grass could be turned into swords. Charlotte had just graduated. She couldn't know this!
Shaking his head slightly, Alexander's eyes lit up. He pulled Charlotte's arm, gestured with his chin, and asked her if the middle-aged lady standing at the door with a cold face was Emily.
When Charlotte saw it, she opened his mouth in fright. Alexander knew that the client was coming. He signaled to Charlotte not to be afraid and walked towards Emily bravely.
Emily was wearing a blue casual suit today, and her green hair was tied high behind her head with a black jade hairpin. She was wearing a pair of flat leather shoes, but her figure was unusually tall, and her skin was fair in green. A noble air came from the soles of her feet. Although she was not wearing makeup, she stood out among the crowd.
This was the aura that only middle-aged women had. Even if they were no longer youthful and beautiful, they could still hold on to the whole situation.
Charlotte looked embarrassed and a little unnatural.
Alexander, on the other hand, was very carefree. He had been traveling all over the country since he was a child, helping the world by curing countless patients. There were some high-ranking people and some poor people. In his eyes, people were only divided into sick people and healthy people, and there was no hierarchy.
When their eyes met, Charlotte lowered his head first, Alexander and Emily looked at each other. After looking at each other for a long time, Emily smiled, breaking the silent scene.
"This little doctor is good."
Emily's Mandarin was pretty standard, and her voice is not as cold as it appears on the surface, but round and smooth, as gentle as millet porridge.
"My name is Alexander, and I am a doctor in the obstetrics and gynecology department of the City First Hospital." Alexander introduced himself.
"Oh? Obstetrics and Gynecology?" Emily raised her green eyebrows, nodded, turned to Charlotte and said, "Dr. Timberlake, don't you want me, a patient, to just stand here and see the doctor?"
Charlotte still lowered her head and seemed not to hear.
Alexander pulled her and she came out of her trance. When she heard Alexander repeated words, she was startled and said quickly, "I'm sorry, I don't have an office. Let's go to the same room as last time. But Aunt York, I... I may not be able to treat you. The prescription I prescribed last time is already the most symptomatic I have ever diagnosed. If you ask me to change it, whether the medicine or the dosage can not be changed, can you..."
"Are you saying that I'm looking trouble for you?" Emily's face turned cold.
"I...I didn't mean it, Aunt York. I'm telling the truth. Really, you'd better take medicine. It's not good for your body to hide your illness and avoid medical treatment." Charlotte's face turned red.
"Little girl, you are really good." Emily Yu laughed.
"I..." Charlotte pursed her lips and crossed her hands, feeling a little at a loss.
Alexander stood aside and looked at Emily calmly. He didn't say anything. Anyway, for Emily's disease, whether it was medication or dietary therapy, he could easily handle it without panicking at all.
"I don't take medicine, I insist on diet therapy. Looking at your resume, you must have graduated from the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine." Emily said casually.
When Charlotte heard this, his face turned pale.
She was very clear about Emily's identity. If the other person knew her details so clearly, it was either a threat or revenge.
Emily's husband was the deputy director of the Department of Health. Charlotte felt dizzy.
As for her, as long as she could stay in the City First Hospital, her family would greatly be grateful. Although Alexander did not directly help her get the job, as long as there was a chance for fair competition, she was 100% sure.
But…
Charlotte glanced at Emily, and she felt that the woman's smile in front of her was so terrifying.
Within the snap of a finger, you could control the destiny of others. This is the power of authority.
Charlotte Tang a little helpless, but she really couldn't think of any way to satisfy Emily. After all, she studied Chinese medicine and knew nothing about dietary health care.
If the other person was sick and refused to take medicine, there was really nothing she could do.
"Your illness is not serious."
Just when Charlotte was so frightened that she almost fell apart, Alexander's words made her almost collapse to the ground.
