After that, Spencer, Lulu, and Nicole exited the room.
"Let's begin." Martin said, his voice calm yet detached.
"Thank you." Icyln replied, thanking him through gritted teeth.
Outside the hospital room, Lulu pulled Nicole aside and lowered her voice, "Don't you find that Icyln's
situation is a little strange?"
"What makes you say that?" Nicole asked, intrigued. 'Did Lulu notice something?'
Then, Lulu recounted what she had observed to Nicole, who also found it puzzling. "Yes, it does seem
unusual."
As they had spoken, both of them turned to look at Spencer, as if a realization had dawned upon them.
Feeling a little flustered under their gaze, he asked, "Why are you both looking at me like that?"
"It's nothing," they said in unison before exchanging glances.
"Stay here for a moment; we'll be back soon."
Assuming they had something to discuss, Spencer agreed without thinking much of it. "Alright."
After Nicole and Lulu had left, the both of them went to the doctor's office and the nurse's station.
"It's true. She throws up whatever she eats. We've performed many tests on her but found no issues.
The
doctor has tried everything he could think of, and nothing has worked," one of the nurses said.
"Yeah, this has led us to suspect that it's a psychological problem,” another added.
"Can't say for sure. Perhaps she's doing it on purpose," another voice chimed in, causing everyone to
turn towards the nurse who had just come out of a room.
"What did you say?" one her colleagues asked.
In response, the third nurse answered, "I'm telling you; I overheard them in her room yesterday. They
were saying things like 'No pain, no gain', and something along the lines of, 'He'll come around only
when I'm tough on myself. I didn't catch all the details, but it definitely sounded fishy.
"Ahem. Don't spout hogwash, Tina," one of her colleagues warned.
"I really heard it, and I am definitely sure," Tina insisted.
The nurse trying to dissuade Tina could only look at Nicole and Lulu awkwardly and say, "Ladies, this is
all the information we have. Perhaps you should consult the doctor again."
Tina suddenly noticed the two individuals standing outside the nurse's station and instinctively, she
asked, "Are you family members of one of our patients? How can I help?"
"They're friends of that patient you just mentioned," another colleague whispered to her.
Overwhelmed by a rush of panic, Tina quickly apologized,"
Sorry, I was just talking nonsense." Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
She had thought that the other nurses were gossiping about Icyln, not realizing that the women in front
of her had likely enquired her co-workers about it. 'Oh, I'm definitely in trouble. I've been gossiping
about the patient behind her back, and her friends have heard it.'
Lulu instantly beamed. "As long as what you said is true, it's okay. Thank you!"
She then grabbed Nicole's hand and walked away, leaving the few bewildered nurses to stare at each
other in confusion. 'What just happened?'
Back at the entrance of the ward, Martin was standing outside while Spencer had disappeared,
indicating that he must have gone in.
After giving the two of them a quick glance, Martin shook his head in defeat. "Her condition is indeed
peculiar. We can't identify the cause, so it's probably psychological. It's probably a response to her
injury."
"Thanks for your help. It's quite late, and I've called you at this hour. You must not have had dinner. Let
me treat you to a meal as a token of my appreciation," Nicole proposed with a faint smile.
After all, it was Nicole who had requested Martin's assistance. It was dinner time for everyone, and
since Martin had made his way here without hesitation, they should not allow him to leave with an
empty stomach.
