Chapter 83 Hospital

Instead of feeling relieved, the woman was now somewhat annoyed when she saw that her daughter was waking up. 'How could she be waking up so soon? If I had known this would happen, I would have given her more sleeping pills last night, ' the woman thought with irritation.

"Jenny? Oh, thank goodness you're awake. How do you feel now? Do you feel ill?" The woman asked putting on an expression of concern on her face.

"Jenny? Thank goodness, you're awake. I was so worried about you. Are you all right?" When the little girl's father noticed that his daughter was waking up, he hurried to her side. He also pretended to be anxious and spoke to her with concern in his voice.

The little girl woke up feeling anxious and confused. However, when she saw clearly that there were so many strangers around staring at her, she hid behind her mother in fear. "Mommy, where am I? I want to go home. Can we go home now?"

"Jenny, my baby. It's all right. Don't be afraid. Do you remember the little cake you ate last night? You suddenly passed out after eating that cake for no apparent reason. I was so worried about you." The woman held the little girl tightly in her arms and spoke to her in a gentle voice.

The little girl nodded her head innocently and said, "Yes. I remember that, Mommy. That cake was really delicious. It tastes better than any cake I've ever eaten before. Mommy, can I have another one, please?" The little girl was only about four or five years old. She looked at her mother with an innocent expression.

"Jenny, listen to me. You can't eat those cakes anymore. Do you know that you fainted after eating that cake last night? There must be something wrong with that cake. Fortunately, you're okay. Otherwise, I don't know what I would have done." The woman held the little girl in her arms again and cried crocodile tears.

The man embraced the woman and the little girl and began to cry as well. The couple were putting on a real show for the people around. Only the little girl was the true victim in all of this.

"Ashley, what should we do now? Do you think it's really because she ate one of our cakes that she fainted?" Ellie looked at the family of three hugging each other, then she walked over to Ashley and asked with an anxious tone.

Ashley patted Ellie gently on the shoulder and comforted her, "Don't worry, Ellie. It will be okay. I don't believe there is anything wrong with our cakes."

Ashley approached the little girl and asked in a gentle voice, "Hello, little cutie. Did you faint last night after you ate the cake?"

Ashley had a swe

f poisoning and she doesn't have any discomfort now. It might be because of the limited medical equipment that we have on board that we failed to find anything wrong with her. However, it doesn't matter. We'll have a detailed examination once we get to the hospital," the doctor said reassuring the couple.

The little girl was very sweet and obedient and she just sat there quietly without saying a word.

Soon, they arrived at the hospital.

The doctor quickly got out of the ambulance and the nurses took the little girl into the examining room. When the couple wanted to follow the doctor into the examining room, they were stopped by a nurse. The nurse looked at them and said apologetically, "I'm sorry. But you can't go in. Please wait here for a moment." Then the nurse turned and followed the doctor into the examining room and closed the door behind her.

The man turned to Ashley and warned her with a menacing voice, "Jenny fell ill after eating your cake. If anything happens to her, I won't let you get off so easily!"

Although the man felt guilty, he knew that if he was going to win the battle, he must speak with great confidence. The whole point was to intimidate Ashley. So instead of looking half-distracted, he straightened up and looked directly at Ashley with threatening eyes.

Ashley, on the other hand, didn't feel threatened by him at all. She returned a cold glare back at him and said, "As I said, our cakes are hand-made and safe to eat. Besides, there has never been any other case where one of my customers has fallen ill after eating any of our cakes. I'm not that easy to bully. If it turns out that you are fabricating evidence to slander me, then I will make you pay dearly for it!"
