“Thank you so much for today, Dr. King,” Brock exclaimed emotionally. “My employee’s mother would still be in a normal ward if not for you.” He turned to Fred and beckoned, “Over here, Fred. Let me introduce you–this is Dr. Walter. King.” Fred hurried over and promptly took Walter King’s hand, shaking it excitedly.

“I’m Fred Lawrence, Mr. Summer’s employee. Thank you so much for today.” Walter nodded and clapped him on the shoulder. “Young man, do take good care of your mother… But I’m not the one doing you a favor here. There’s only

one such special care ward, reserved for important people with urgent conditions. No one gets in unless they have the chief’s personal approval.” Brock simply presumed that Walter was being humble. “Oh, there’s no need to be so modest, Dr. King. We’d never get a word in with your chief! It’s all thanks to you!” Walter rolled his eyes, having the feeling that Brock’s brain was a little on the slow side.

“You’re exaggerating. I don’t have the chief’s ears, you know.” “What?” Brock was taken aback.

If Walter did not speak to Hali and arranged the special care ward for Carol, then who did? Nonetheless, Walter shot Fred a look. “Why are you spacing out here? Go thank the chief already.” Fred came to his senses and hurried to Hali. “Thank you so much, sir.‘ Hali waved him off. “It’s not me either–Ms. Zimmer has spoken, and who am I to deny her?” It was only then that Fred noticed the plainly dressed woman standing beside Hali whom he did not know.

“And you are…?” Hali was smiling and left stunned. “What, you don’t know Ms. Zimmer? She’s the granddaughter of Dan Zimmer, the owner of Riveton’s Flora Hall!” “Oh, gosh!” Fred gasped, surprised that the woman was such an important figure. “I’m so sorry, Ms. Zimmer!” So that was why even Hali was being so respectful around her!
