Chapter 2418
After that, Spencer, Lulu, and Nicole exited the room.
"Let's begin." Martin said, his voice calm yet detached.
"Thank you." Icyln replied, thanking him through gritted teeth.
Outside the hospital room, Lulu pulled Nicole aside and lowered her voice, "Don't you find that Icyln's situation is a little strange?"
"What makes you say that?" Nicole asked, intrigued. 'Did Lulu notice something?'
Then, Lulu recounted what she had observed to Nicole, who also found it puzzling. "Yes, it does seem unusual."
As they had spoken, both of them turned to look at Spencer, as if a realization had dawned upon them.
Feeling a little flustered under their gaze, he asked, "Why are you both looking at me like that?"
"It's nothing," they said in unison before exchanging glances.
"Stay here for a moment; we'll be back soon."
Assuming they had something to discuss, Spencer agreed without thinking much of it. "Alright."
After Nicole and Lulu had left, the both of them went to the doctor's office and the nurse's station.
"It's true. She throws up whatever she eats. We've performed many tests on her but found no issues. The
doctor has tried everything he could think of, and nothing has worked," one of the nurses said.
"Yeah, this has led us to suspect that it's a psychological problem,” another added.
Sorry, I was just talking nonsense."
She had thought that the other nurses were gossiping about Icyln, not realizing that the women in front of her had likely enquired her co-workers about it. 'Oh, I'm definitely in trouble. I've been gossiping about the patient behind her back, and her friends have heard it.'
Lulu instantly beamed. "As long as what you said is true, it's okay. Thank you!"
She then grabbed Nicole's hand and walked away, leaving the few bewildered nurses to stare at each other in confusion. 'What just happened?'
Back at the entrance of the ward, Martin was standing outside while Spencer had disappeared, indicating that he must have gone in.
After giving the two of them a quick glance, Martin shook his head in defeat. "Her condition is indeed peculiar. We can't identify the cause, so it's probably psychological. It's probably a response to her injury."
"Thanks for your help. It's quite late, and I've called you at this hour. You must not have had dinner. Let me treat you to a meal as a token of my appreciation," Nicole proposed with a faint smile.
After all, it was Nicole who had requested Martin's assistance. It was dinner time for everyone, and since Martin had made his way here without hesitation, they should not allow him to leave with an empty stomach.
