Chapter 1036 Terminal Lucidity

Half an hour later, the convoy of cars from the Oates family grandly entered the underground parking lot of the

hospital. Sienna stealthily trailed them inside. One could only wonder whether everyone in the Oates family was too

eager to head to the hospital or simply too careless to not notice Sienna tailing them. Upon seeing the group step

into the elevator, Sienna watched the panel as it showed that they had stopped on the fifteenth floor. She waited

for a while before boarding another elevator to head upstairs. When the elevator reached the fourteenth floor, she

got off and then crept up the steps through the emergency staircase, silently making her way up to the fifteenth

floor. As soon as she exited the emergency staircase, Finnick's voice reached her ears.

“Doctor, how's my dad doing now?”

“The patient has yet to pass the critical period. Please stay calm.”

That reply was from a voice stranger to Sienna.

That must be the doctor.

Startled, she pressed her back against the wall then and there, gingerly sneaking a peek down the hallway.

Crowding near the entrance of the emergency treatment room was the Oates family with Finnick leading at the

forefront. Everyone regarded the doctor with varied expressions. The doctor hurried away, seemingly anxious. A

pucker formed between Sienna's brows.

Oh, dear... Dad must be very ill.

That would explain why none of them told her about Nelson falling sick. Sienna's heart raced, and her mind was in a

mess. It took her a while to calm her emotions. Only then did she quietly take a glimpse once more at the door of

the emergency treatment room. A rather displeased collateral relative of the Oates family piped up, “Finnick,

what's going on? Did the old man have a stroke? Or is it a brain bleed? Why did you only summon us when his

condition has gotten so severe?”

“Right... Finnick, you didn't hide it from us intentionally, did you?” asked another woman, sounding dissatisfied.

It was then that Madison, who was dressed in a white coat, stepped out of the elevator. She gazed at the bustling

corridor, coughed slightly, and cleared her throat. She then ambled toward Finnick, her cold eyes sweeping over

everyone before she uttered, “Dad's condition suddenly worsened last night. I already informed Lily. Also, Finnick

also just found out today. So... what exactly are you all unhappy about?”

As the head of the nursing department at Jadeborough Hospital, Madison was responsible for the allocation of all

nurses throughout the hospital. She might not usually see patients, let alone take care of them, but she had an

inborn inclination of throwing her weight around. Usually, her friends and family would ask for her favor every time

they visited the hospital for treatment. As a result, she had the gall to show up with her hands in her pockets,

exuding an aura that seemed even more intimidating than that of her husband, Finnick.

“Why would you say that, Madison? We're merely showing our concern,” claimed one of the Oates with an awkward

grin. “Enough. Dad's getting on in years, and he's facing problems with his health, just like any machine would with

time. This is only natural. Everybody will age, fall sick, and die one day. It's the law of nature, so don't be too upset.”

She paused for a fleeting moment before adding, “Besides, my sister, Chloe, is a surgeon specialist. She's been

abroad several times for academic research and exchange, and she's one of the top doctors we have here. In the

next couple of days, she'll fix a time and perform the surgery for Dad. What are you guys still worried about?”

Madison's eyelids fluttered. She and Chloe were a famous duo in the entirety of Jadeborough Hospital.

The Yeatman family had a long history in the medical field. Being a medical family, their descendants were mostly

working in various prestigious hospitals throughout Jadeborough. Among them, that pair of sisters stood out the

most. One of them pursued a career in administration while the other delved into academic research. Be it the

Yeatman family or the Oates family, none could hold a candle to Madison's and Chloe's stature. After all, in that era,

almost everyone would be down with some sort of illness at some point.

Sienna had been hiding in the corner, eavesdropping on the conversations of the Oates family members. She could

be fairly certain of one thing—Nelson's days were numbered. It seemed that she would need to seek the old man's

help before he breathed his last. All she could do at present was pray with all her heart that Nelson would at least

experience a burst of terminal lucidity so that she could see him for one last time. Meanwhile, an airplane swept up

a gust of wind as it landed at Jadeborough Airport.

A tall, slender lady emerged from the VIP passage with one hand tucked in the pocket of her hoodie while the other

held a red phone.
