Her Revenge From Shadow to Sunlight novel Chapter 18

Chapter 18

Adam knew the truth well enough. After losing their daughter for more than a decade, his parents were bound to dote on Tiffany. But lately, they’d tossed common sense out the window.

And as for Tiffany, she had been acting weird too.

Adam still remembered the day they brought Tiffany back from that remote town. The place was practically falling apart, yet she’d survived there all those years.

But now she was claiming she couldn’t handle an ordinary hospital ward? This was just too unreasonable.

Adam rubbed his temple, hoping to figure out some explanations.

With a sigh, he hung up the phone and returned to the stack of patient files on his desk. Several of his cases were critical, and he had to keep tabs on them constantly. Since he’d been out of the hospital today, the nurses had logged everything in detail.

He flipped open a chart-barely two cases in-when his office door banged open. A nurse tried to block the intruder but got shoved aside.

Adam’s head snapped up. Standing there, arms crossed and looking self-important, was none other than Andrew Lawrence.

“Doctor Lawrence,” the nurse said quickly, flustered, “I told him you were busy, but he insisted…

“It’s fine,” Adam cut her off with a calm nod. “Go on.”

As she retreated, Andrew let out a cold snort. “Told her I’m your brother and she still had the nerve to stop me.”

He then shot Adam a look. “You really need to train your nurses better. She has no respect.”

Adam pinched the bridge of his nose, ignoring his words. “What is it, Andrew?”

Andrew finally remembered why he’d barged in. His expression shifted from arrogance to urgency.

“Listen, Adam, you’ve got to move Tiffany to another room,” he quickly replied. “The one she’s in now is stuck between two wards. If anyone gets noisy on either side, she won’t be able to rest. Shift her to the end room- it’s bigger, brighter, and I heard it’s even got a balcony. Good for her recovery.”

Adam’s frown deepened. “There’s only one VIP room left. And all of them are soundproofed. Even if someone next door was yelling their head off, you wouldn’t hear a peep.”

“But it doesn’t have a balcony,” Andrew waved him off. “Tiffany loves balconies.”

“Andrew, all the VIP wards, only 606 has a balcony,” Adam said, staring at him. “That’s it. The others don’t.”

“Then move her into 606,” Andrew said matter-of-factly, as though it were the most obvious solution in the

world.

“Look, Andrew, this is a hospital, not a five-star hotel. You don’t just waltz in and pick whatever room you want,” Adam tried to convince Andrew.

“Even at a hotel, if someone’s already checked in, you can’t just toss them out. And right now, there’s only one vacant VIP ward left. If you don’t grab it soon, even that’ll be gone, and Tiffany will have no choice but to stay in a regular room.”

But Andrew wasn’t letting go. He leaned forward, voice rising. “Adam, that’s Tiffany we’re talking about. Haven’t you thought about what she’s been through? She’s suffered since she was a kid…”

The pounding in Adam’s head spiked. Finally, he shoved his chair back and stood. “Enough. Fine. Let’s go take a look.”

Andrew’s scowl flipped instantly into smug satisfaction. “Knew you’d see reason.”

The two brothers strode down to the VIP wing. Sure enough, the entire Lawrence family was camped out in the corridor. Tiffany leaned weakly against Maria, pale and fragile as porcelain.

“We understand you want the best room for your loved one. But Room 606 is already occupied,” on the other side, a nurse was patiently trying to reason with the Lawrences.

“There’s another VIP room available. If you’ll come with me, we can complete the paperwork. And once 606 is vacated, we’ll transfer Miss Lawrence immediately. How about that?”

Maria lifted her chin like a duchess. “My daughter wants that room. We’ll pay extra.”

The nurse almost burst out laughing. “This isn’t about money, madam. This is a hospital. Please follow our arrangements.”

Archie barked, “Why are you being so stubborn? My sister wants that room. Just tell the patient in there to move. Problem solved.”

The nurse pressed her lips together, unsure how to answer. Watching the scene, Adam wanted nothing more than to walk away, pretending not to know them.

Unfortunately, that wasn’t an option. With a stiff smile, he stepped forward and spoke up. “Sorry, Ms. Ullman. They’re my family. I’ll handle it.”

The nurse, Elizabeth Ullman, blinked in surprise, clearly not expecting these entitled loudmouths to be related to Adam. But she gave a curt nod and turned to leave-only to nearly bump into someone.

“Oh! I’m so sorry,” she gasped, stepping aside.

“It’s fine,” came a soft voice.

The Lawrence family’s heads all swiveled at once. It was Alicia.

“Well, well,” Archie sneered instantly. “Didn’t want to come home, but here you are tailing us. Figures.”

Andrew’s lip also curled. “Do you even know where you are? You don’t belong here.”

He then turned to Elizabeth, puffing up his chest. “What kind of hospital lets just anyone wander into the VIP wing? No wonder it’s so noisy. How are patients supposed to rest in this chaos?”
