"Miss Mellisa, are you listening?"
Doctor Verdy waited a while, but he didn't hear Mellisa's answer.
He couldn't help feeling confused and anxious. This is the responsibility of their hospital. Both patients' reports were wrong, and it could've led them into a disaster.
And if a pregnant woman with a real ectopic pregnancy is never sent to the hospital in time due to bleeding in the stomach, the consequences will be catastrophic.
At this time, Mellisa heard a call on the phone, but she only felt a hum in her eardrums. She felt the world was spinning.
She was pregnant but was misdiagnosed with an ectopic pregnancy.
Currently, she does not control the frequency of her smoking. She planned to return to Jakarta to undergo surgery in person.
Therefore, she always wanted to solve Leila's problems as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Mellisa couldn't help feeling scared.
If it weren't for seeing the press conference and worrying about Lilia's situation, she wouldn't have rushed back to Surabaya.
If she hadn't come back, she would probably have surgery on the second day of the examination.
At that time, Doctor Verdy's medical advice was still ringing in her ears.
And now he's telling her it was a misdiagnosis?!
She was eager to return because she was afraid that the ectopic pregnancy would cause her to bleed her stomach at any time.
Mellisa's breath was fast and heavy. In just a few seconds, her throat was hoarse. "I'll come back to Jakarta tomorrow!"
"Alright, Miss Mellisa. I'll be waiting for you then. I'm sorry."
Doctor Verdy kept apologizing, but Mellisa could not forgive him just like that.
She smoked so much, and this child ....
...
That night, when Mellisa and Rini left the mall, people were dumbfounded.
Walking on the sidewalk, she hit a pedestrian several times without realizing it.
Rini realized something was wrong with her, but she could only try to protect her by her side.
She thought, perhaps it's because of the news that came from Bandung.
That night, Mellisa returned to Villa Lakeside, but she didn't see Lilia in the living room. She hesitated and walked to the door of their room. She hesitated and pulled back her hand that was going to knock on the door.
She closed her eyes and sighed, but when she turned around, she suddenly saw Jean who happened to come out of the room across from her.
Mellisa looked at him, blinked in an instant and walked forward. "I have something to talk, I want to ask you..."
At this moment, the man stared at Mellisa's vague expression. "What do you want to ask?"
Mellisa took a deep breath, trying to calm her disturbed mind. After a while, she lifted her head and looked serious. "Is the Leonard family's situation really that bad?"
"If you want to know, why don't you go and see for yourself?"
This rhetorical question surprised Mellisa.
She sighed and smiled reluctantly. "There is still something going on in Jakarta, so I don't have the time to visit him in Bandung in the near future. Also... Let your people leave Jakarta. I am already very familiar with the ins and outs of the city, you are just wasting your time on following me."
The man looked at her deeply. "They won't investigate you, at most they protect you in secret."
"No, nothing can hurt me!" After speaking, Mellisa lowered her eyes and bit the tip of her tongue. "If it's convenient for you, can you tell me what's really happening with his family in Bandung?"
After hearing this, Jean didn't hide it. "Leonard refused to accept the fiancée arranged by his family and is currently trapped in his home. He had three other siblings, all of whom were actively fighting for the right to inherit their family."
Mellisa's face paled in an instant, and there was no happiness or anger. "What about him, is he in any kind of danger?"
"Not at this time!" Jean gave a firm answer.
Even though Leonard was being watched by his family, it doesn't mean that the first heir of the family can't do anything.
Sometimes, she had to risk tensions with her family to escape the watchdog that had been protecting her from the shadow.
But this depends on whether Mellisa can go to Bandung.
If she still stubbornly refuses to face Leonard, then everything would only rely on their own destiny.
Leonard did not want her to come, but... he can not get out!
After hearing the answer, Melissa looked at Jean and said thank you.
Then, she turned her legs and went into the master bedroom.
It was approaching one in the middle of the night. Lilia vaguely overheard Mellisa's conversation with Jean in her sleep. When she found out that Mellisa was back, she was relieved and fell asleep again in no time.
But she didn't expect that when she called Mellisa out for breakfast the next morning, she'd only find a note on the table in the bedroom.
The contents of the notes were very concise, only a few words were written.
'Lilia, sorry, I have something urgent. I have to come back as soon as possible, don't go after me!'
Lilia saw the message and was speechless for a long time.
Maybe because she had been in Mellisa's bedroom for a long time, the man had already approached her.
He didn't seem surprised by Mellisa's departure. When Jean was pacing beside Lilia, he was whispering, "She left at twelve midnight."
"She told you?" Lilia turned her head, her movements a little stiff.
The man shook his head, then he told the contents of his conversation with Mellisa and finally added, "I saw the CCTV recording, looks like she borrowed our car to go somewhere."
Hearing this, Lilia's tense mood relaxed a little.
After a while, she shook her head and sighed and muttered helplessly. "I knew Mellisa would leave sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to happen this fast! Even though I didn't know what happened to her in Jakarta, I always thought she was very mysterious, but she didn't want to say and I didn't want to ask her. My sister always carries everything by herself. She clearly said that she would say goodbye to me when she wanted to leave, but she left without saying goodbye."
"The matter with Jakarta... If you want to know ..."
The man's low tone was still on his lips, but Lilia shook her head a little. "There's no need to check, Mellisa doesn't want us to know, so if you can, just call the people you sent to investigate her beforehand and tell them to stay put. Maybe she had a difficult life in the past. But that shouldn't happen in the future. At least the funds that my grandpa gave are enough to protect her life. When she comes back next time, I'll take care of her."
Lilia held back the feeling of loss in her heart, but her thoughts were still very chaotic. Still, she clearly rejected Jean's move to continue the investigation.
Since this is Mellisa's secret, she wants to leave enough room for her.
She believed that Mellisa would return safely.
Lilia put the memo on the table again, and left the bedroom leaning on the man's shoulder.
She still doesn't want to move things.
When Mellisa comes back, let her "visit this old place" again.
...
Mellisa's departure seemed inevitable, so even though Lilia didn't feel like giving up, she could only let her sister go on her free will.
She thought that she would definitely come back when she'd finished her business.
Lilia and Jean ate their breakfast in peace.
Not long after she finished eating, she took a sip of two cups of milk. "Have your company's problems been resolved?"
The man sends the boiled egg into her bowl again, answering, "Resolved!"
