Chapter 641 Here Comes Veronica (4)
Half an hour later, Raymond and Veronica appeared in the hospital.
Looking at the exquisite decorations in the hospital, Veronica thought that if Raymond checked his body or was hospitalized here, it would cost a lot of money.
But with her current condition, she could not afford to pay such a large amount of medical fees.
Veronica looked at Raymond and forced a smile. "Sir, in fact, in a big hospital, it will take so much time to check your body. Just now, I saw a clinic across the road. Why don't we go there? The doctors there are also good at medicine. What do you think?"
Raymond did not even look at Veronica and walked straight to the information desk on the first floor. "Is Dr. Morgan from the Orthopedics Department here today?"
Veronica casually looked around and saw a duty roster on the wall. There was only one orthopedic doctor in the hospital. Moreover ... he was a famous expert.
It would be fine if Raymond saw ordinary doctors, but he was going to see a famous expert. The registration fee for famous experts was more than double that of ordinary doctors.
The nurse said, "Dr. Morgan happens to be on duty tonight!"Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Just as Raymond was about to say something more, Veronica grabbed his arm.
Veronica wasn't paying much attention to Raymond and happened to pull his injured arm. Raymond was in great pain and gasped. Then he fiercely glared at Veronica.
Veronica looked at Raymond apologetically, then grabbed his other arm, and pulled him to the side.
"Well, sir, you can't blackmail me because of my mistake, can you? Let's go to the opposite clinic!" Veronica said.
"No!" Raymond firmly said, "I'll treat my arm in this hospital!"
Veronica didn't know what to say.
She didn't have any money right now. She hadn't received her salary from the translation office yet. Even if she did, it wouldn't be enough for the medical expenses. Seeing that Raymond insisted on seeing Dr. Joseph Morgan, Veronica could only grab his arm once again. "Sir..."
Raymond was getting impatient.
"Miss, do you have any other opinions? If you delay the treatment and my arm is crippled, will you be responsible for it?"
Veronica didn't dare to hold Raymond's arm anymore. She smiled apologetically, "Sir, don't be angry. It's just that..."
Veronica scratched the back of her head and lowered her head awkwardly, not daring to look at Raymond's face. "I ... I don't have any money right now. So, the medical fees..."
To Raymond, the medical fees were nothing to him and not even worth mentioning. Originally, he did not intend to fight for it with Veronica.
However, Veronica had blackmailed him just now, and her attitude was not good. Thus, Raymond suddenly changed his mind.
Raymond looked at her coldly and said word by word, "Remember to return the money to me in the future. Also, before my arm is checked, you are not allowed to leave the hospital. Otherwise, I will sue you for hurting me on purpose."
Veronica could say nothing.
She wanted to strangle the man in front of her.
She felt that it wasn't she who had blackmailed Raymond, but Raymond had blackmailed her.
Later, Veronica followed Raymond to the hospital for a check-up.
In the end, the results came out. Raymond's arm was indeed fractured. When he fell down earlier, his head hit the wall. Therefore, the doctor suspected that Raymond would suffer a slight concussion and asked Raymond to stay in the hospital for a night.
After entering the hospital for fifty minutes, Raymond stayed in a VIP ward of the Orthopedics Department in the hospital.
Standing in the VIP ward, Veronica felt as if her heart was bleeding.
The daily hospitalization fees and nursing fees were already high. Now ... Raymond was in the VIP ward, and the fees must be much higher than that of the ordinary ward.
Veronica had tried to ask Raymond to stay in an ordinary ward, but Raymond insisted on staying in the VIP ward. He even threatened her that if he were to stay in an ordinary ward, he would sue her. Under Raymond's threats, Veronica had no choice but to agree to let Raymond stay in the VIP ward.
Raymond was lying on the hospital bed. There was a cast on his left arm, and it could not move.
Looking at the man lying in the hospital bed, Veronica felt a little guilty.
No matter what, if it wasn't for her, Raymond's arm would not have fractured. He just wanted to return the phone to her, or he wouldn't have gone to her uncle and aunt's house to look for her. Since Raymond was lying on the bed, Veronica was relieved.
"Well, Mr. Cordova..."
Raymond had to do all kinds of checks before. Although Veronica did not have to pay the money, she was the one who handled the procedures, so she knew Raymond's name. Hearing Veronica calling him, Raymond looked at her coldly. "What is it?"
Veronica said, "You are now in the hospital. And the doctor said that you can't move your arm for a few days. It will be fine after you remove the plaster. So, I want to go." "Where are you going? Hasn't your house been seized?"
Veronica fell silent.
Raymond had a sharp tongue. She really wanted to sew his mouth with a needle so that he wouldn't say more unpleasant words.
It turned out that when she was talking to her aunt, Raymond had heard everything from the side.
"I'm not going home!" Veronica glared at Raymond. "In order to send you to the hospital, my books were left at the door of my aunt's house. I want to go back to get them." "Just for those books? Are they that important?"
"Of course!" Veronica said seriously, "I admire Ms. Hopper the most, and those books are recommended by her. I choose to major in Italian in college because I want to become an excellent diplomat in the future. So, I can't lose those books."
Raymond was a little surprised.
Unexpectedly, Veronica was a student majoring in Italian.
Raymond said, "It is fine. You can buy them again in the future!"
"No!" Veronica shook her head. "All my books have been signed by Ms. Hopper in person. They can't be bought with money!"
"Isn't it just a signature?"
"You are a businessman, and you can't understand. You only care about money. Do you know what a hobby is?" Veronica looked at Raymond with disdain. "I'm afraid that you can't understand what I'm saying. In your eyes, you can buy everything with money, but no matter how much money you have, you can't buy true happiness."
Raymond fell silent.
Her handsome face turned a little strange.
Was he being looked down upon?
