Chapter 871 The fifty-year-old Doctor Franklin adjusted his glasses and raised his head to look at Arianna. He did not lose his temper at Arianna’s insolence. Instead, it was as if he had expected it. "Ms. Tanner, your uncle's situation is a bit special. He didn't need my permission to leave, nor was | even given the right to discharge him." "So, you're saying you don't want to take responsibility for this?" Arianna asked as she narrowed her gaze at him.
"Ms. Tanner, | assure you everything went according to our procedures. Since the family had requestedto discharge the patient and the patient had also agreed, there was nothing we could do to stop them since they've signed the disclaimers.” He finished, took out the legal documents from his shelf, and threw them onto his desk.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtArianna hurriedly looked through them and noticed that Stephanie had signed them with her uncle's crooked signature. "How long have they been gone?" She gritted her teeth and asked as she placed her hands on the table.
"About two days ago," Franklin answered.
“Two days ago?!" Derrick got discharged before Damian reappeared and turned himself in. ‘It looked like these two incidents are somehow connected after all.” "Who cto pick him up from the hospital?" She continued asking.
"I'm sorry, we don't know. However, there were quite a handful of people who came. After all, when Mr. Tanner first cto our hospital, he brought many along. The Tanner family is a reputable family, and your connections are vast, so it is not surprising that we don't know every one of your connections, correct?” Franklin clarified.
Arianna knew he was pulling her leg but chose not to press the subject. Instead, she thought for a moment before asking, ‘Then, did my uncle say where he was going?" Franklin just smiled. "I honestly don't know the answer to this question, but I'm guessing most patients would probably choose to go hafter being discharged. Since you're so worried about your uncle, Ms. Tanner, | suggest you check on him at his place." Arianna nodded and stood up. "I understand. Thank you for your help, Doctor Franklin.” ‘This sly fox is probably one of Uncle Derrick's lackeys too! | don't know how much truth there was to what he just told me.” Although that was why Arianna thought, Franklin did remind her that she had not checked the Tanner residence yet. Since that was the case, she should make sure whether or not they were back there.
"Mom, let's go to Uncle Derrick's house.” After leaving the hospital, the mother-daughter duo got into Arianna's car. Arianna started the engine and was about to drive to her uncle's place when Eloise immediately held her and stopped her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEloise shook her head and took out her phone to make a call, "Did they chome? Okay, | understand." "Your uncle isn't home," Eloise hung up and told Arianna firmly. Arianna had forgotten that her mother had a close relationship with Derrick’s family. It was natural that Eloise had sconnections within their family and only had to call to obtain information about them.
‘If Uncle Derrick and Aunt Stephanie didn't go home, where could they be?” "Mom, since they're not hand they've already left the hospital, this could only mean they've planned this for me. They want to deceive me,” Arianna concluded.
"Don't overthink. Why would your aunt and uncle want to deceive you? Does that mean they were aware of your intentions all along?" Eloise patted Arianna’s hand gently and comforted her, ‘That's probably not the case. It just means that your uncle had taken precautions and deliberately avoided US. Also, I'm curious about something else.” "What is it?" "Your uncle, was he truly that sick?" Eloise sighed as she thought about everything that had happened in the hospital. "Or was it all just his plan from the beginning?" "If that's true, he is a terrifying person.” Arianna could not help but break into a cold sweat as she thought of seeing him acting all feeble and sick. She had even witnessed the doctors performing emergency procedures on him while Stephanie cried a river.
Derrick even went as far as to make a will, and Arianna disrespected him because she thought he was dying.
