Animal Whisperer: Take Back My Life and Love Chapter 319: The Professional Diagnosis

Simon kept his expression steady and his tone grave. "Nancy is still young. However, meeting a few upright and driven friends will be good for her. As her brother, I want to broaden her social circle in a healthy environment."

His reasoning was airtight.

Sam nodded solemnly. "You're right. Leave it to me. I’ll find a few of our most outstanding young men. We can call it a professional exchange between peers."

"I appreciate it."

Simon offered a shallow nod. His brow was calm and his eyes were clear.

...

A common cold was nothing to a world-class physician like Barry. Under his care, Nancy’s recovery was swift.

By the next morning, she woke up feeling light and energized. She was nearly back to her usual lively self. She was ready to head straight back to the zoo to oversee the expansion project, but Jorgan arrived to escort her to the Goodman Corp Medical Center in Townsville instead. Barry had sent him personally.

A luxurious, long-wheelbase Bentley sat idling right at the entrance of the Loren Zoo office complex.

"Ms. Nancy," Jorgan said respectfully. "There were some minor fluctuations in several indicators from yesterday’s blood report. After reviewing them, Mr. Barry feels a more in-depth screening is necessary to be safe."

Nancy practically bolted out of her chair. Her eyes went wide. "Barry isn't satisfied?"

In her head, that sentence translated instantly. Even a medical titan like Barry was worried.

The feeling was no different from being handed a death sentence by a Chief Justice. A hundred terminal illness scenarios flashed through her mind. Her heart sank straight to her stomach.

Seeing her face go pale, Jorgan quickly tried to soothe her. "Please, don't scare yourself. It’s just a routine deep-dive to ensure everything is perfect."

"Fast! Get to the hospital now!" Nancy didn't even let him finish. She darted out the door and dived into the car.

She buckled her seatbelt so fast her hands were a blur. She kept muttering under her breath. "Hurry, Jorgan. Move. I’m too young. My zoo’s plans aren't even finished yet. I’m not ready to go yet."

Jorgan caught her reflection in the rearview mirror. Seeing her look like she was about to write her last will and testament, he fought back a smile.

He pulled the car away smoothly. "Understood. Sit tight."

...

The Goodman Corp Medical Center was a massive and imposing structure. Its modern glass facade shimmered brilliantly under the morning sun.

As the Bentley rolled toward the main entrance, the sharp-eyed security captain recognized the unique license plate instantly. He jolted into action and grabbed his radio. His voice was pitched high with urgency. "Heads up! The Boss is here!"

"Repeat. The Boss's vehicle has arrived. All personnel, Level One alert."

The moment the words went out, the entire building seemed to hit a mute button.

Nurses at the front desk straightened their collars. Doctors in the waiting area instinctively squared their shoulders. Everyone snapped into a state of high alert within seconds. Even the staff walking the halls picked up their pace while maintaining a heavy and professional silence.

It was an instinctive reaction to the absolute authority and extreme professional standards of their young director.

The car door opened. The first thing the staff saw was a splash of soft yellow. Then, a young girl in a sun dress stepped out.

Her long hair fell like a silken waterfall down her back. Her eyes were strikingly bright, despite a lingering paleness from her fever.

When the staff realized the person emerging from the CEO's private vehicle was a complete stranger, the place erupted into a frenzy of hushed whispers.

"Who’s the kid?"

"Which family is she from? She's gorgeous, but she looks a bit frail."

"Jorgan is personally escorting her? I've never seen that before. What's her story?"

The rumors rippled through the hospital at the speed of light.

As Jorgan led her inside, Nancy felt the weight of a thousand eyes. She bit her lip awkwardly. She felt like a rare animal that had wandered into a human settlement.

Jorgan ignored the commotion entirely. He led her with practiced deference. "Ms. Nancy, Mr. Barry will be here shortly. Please wait in his office for a moment."

Just as they were heading toward the private elevators, a sudden and frantic commotion broke out near the emergency entrance.

The sharp screech of wheels against the floor echoed through the lobby as a gurney was rushed in at full speed.

"Move! Out of the way!"

A man laid on the gurney. His face was already turning a sickly shade of purple as he gasped for air.

The family members trailing behind him were screaming in a panic. "Doctor! Please, save him! He's been bitten by a snake!"
