Chapter 186: Chapter 186: Fever Reducer Medicine

"So that’s how it is," William David scanned Serena Summers, chuckling and sighing, "Indeed, there are always higher skies beyond the skies, and superior people beyond people. I didn’t expect Serena Summers to be so impressive.

Soon, the two reached the lobby.

William David introduced, "Nurse Lawrence, this is Serena Summers, she is applying to volunteer at the hospital. Serena, this is Nurse Lawrence from our hospital, Julia Lawrence."

Recently, countless people have come to volunteer at the hospital, and the hospital issues a form for them to fill out with their basic information.

When Julia Lawrence saw William David, her eyes lit up, but as her gaze shifted to Serena Summers next to him, she couldn’t help but pause for a moment, revealing a look of astonishment.

"This... who is this?"

Julia Lawrence asked curiously.

William David patiently repeated what he had said.

Julia Lawrence nodded in understanding and asked softly, "Young lady, are you of age yet? Our hospital does not accept anyone under eighteen."

Serena Summers felt like crying without tears, why does everyone ask her if she is of age when they see her?

Does she really look that young?

"Thank you for your concern, I am of age."

Julia Lawrence awkwardly touched her nose and then shifted her gaze back and forth between William David and Serena Summers.

Suddenly, a sense of panic arose in her heart.

Serena Summers was too beautiful, dazzlingly beautiful, standing out even in a crowd.

What bothered her most was that Dr. David’s gaze towards Serena Summers was too tender.

This gave her a sense of crisis.

She had been secretly in love with William David for three years and although they saw each other daily, she never mustered the courage to confess.

Seeing a delicately beautiful girl next to William David now, she inevitably felt uncomfortable.

"Miss Summers, we only accept volunteers who understand medical knowledge, I’m afraid you might not be suitable."

Serena Summers raised an eyebrow and countered, "You haven’t even asked, how do you know I don’t understand medical knowledge?"

William David also stepped in, saying, "Yes, Nurse Lawrence, Miss Summers is a top graduate from the medical department of Clearview University, and besides, our hospital is currently short-staffed."

Julia Lawrence suddenly found herself at a loss for words, her mouth opening and closing without uttering a sound.

Clearview University?

That is the dream university countless students in Corland aspire to, a dream for many.

She scrutinized Serena Summers intently and finally fixed her gaze on her face, unable to help but purse her lips.

Could this girl be lying?

Could Clearview University be so easy to get into?

She didn’t even look at herself in the mirror to see if she fits the bill!

From her experience, pretty girls usually don’t focus on their studies.

Especially someone as outstanding as Serena Summers, who must have had many admirers since she was young.

This kind of girl typically enjoys being the center of attention, and over time, they surely wouldn’t concentrate on their studies.

How could she possibly get into Clearview University?

Could it be... she invented this lie just to attract Dr. David’s attention?

Thinking this way, she felt even more disdain.

But because Dr. David was there, Julia Lawrence could only think these thoughts without voicing them.

She glared at Serena Summers irritably, then took out the form and handed it to her.

"Just fill in your personal information here."

At this moment, suddenly a young nurse ran over, "Dr. David, a patient needs surgery, the deputy director is looking for you everywhere."

William David immediately responded, "I will be right there."

He turned his head to look at Serena Summers.

Serena Summers smiled and nodded to him, "Dr. David, go ahead if you have things to do."

"Alright, I’ll come find you after the surgery."

After William David left, Serena Summers completed the form and handed it back to Julia Lawrence, asking, "What should I do now?"

Julia Lawrence glanced around and casually pointed in a direction, "You can go there and try to calm down the patients who are waiting in line."

There weren’t enough staff in the hospital, and many patients were getting anxious and starting to curse.

But, this hospital was already the best one locally.

Moreover, Prosperity Hill was somewhat secluded and quite far from other provinces and cities, so they could only choose to receive treatment here.

"Okay," Serena Summers faintly nodded. She walked toward the crowd.

The lobby on the first floor was overflowing with people, many of whom were crowded together.

Some patients’ faces were filled with anxiety and pain, but there were too many people ahead in line, so they could only bear it forcibly.

Occasionally, a few who grew too impatient and tried to cut in line were scolded and then went back to queue up obediently.

Serena Summers’ gaze swept over them, feeling somewhat disheartened.

The storm had come too suddenly, almost without any signs, not even the weather forecast had anticipated it.

It was only two hours before the storm that an emergency notice was issued.

But by then, it was already too late.

As Serena Summers walked past the people, she suddenly heard a deafening cry.

It was the sound of a child.

She looked in the direction of the sound and noticed an old lady holding a child, her eyes full of worry and urgency.

The child seemed to be only one or two years old, crying breathlessly in the elderly woman’s arms.

People around them were cursing, scolding the elderly woman to control her grandson.

The old lady’s face was embarrassed, continuously apologizing to the people around her while gently patting her grandson’s back to comfort him.

Serena Summers approached and asked softly, "Old lady, what’s wrong with your grandson?"

The old lady’s eyes were red, continuously patting her little grandson, and upon hearing Serena Summers’ gentle greeting, she couldn’t help but feel a mixture of heartache and grievance, "Young lady, my grandson has a fever, it’s over forty degrees... If it continues like this, his brain could get damaged. He’s my only grandson, what would I do if something happens to him!"

Serena Summers instinctively reached out to touch the little boy’s forehead, and couldn’t help but be taken aback.

Too hot.

This must be at least thirty-nine degrees.

"Grandma, you wait here for a moment, I will be back right away." After saying that, she went to find Nurse Lawrence for a thermometer.

Julia Lawrence hummed disapprovingly, "No."

Serena Summers didn’t understand why she harbored so much malice, she said firmly, "There’s a patient with a severe fever, if it continues like this, I’m afraid something bad will happen."

"Really, there are none! The hospital’s supplies are already scarce, all the thermometers have been taken by patients."

Serena Summers sighed helplessly and immediately took out her phone and made a call.

She returned to the old lady’s side and reassured her in a lower voice, "Grandma, don’t worry, your grandson will be alright."

"How can I not worry? When we came here, his fever was already thirty-nine degrees, now it’s even hotter than before... I’m really scared..."

Serena Summers slowly crouched down, silently patting the old lady’s back in comfort.

After hesitating for a moment, she suddenly remembered that she might still have some fever medicine in her bag.
