Theo deliberately transferredto a VIP ward to helprecuperate in silence, but looking at the vacant ward,
my mind continued to be in turmoil. | thought about Munchkin all the time.
It was too suffocating to stay in the ward, so | went to the corridor to let the hustle and bustle of the hospital
drown out my inner turmoil.
Theo walked out of the ward as well.
Seeing the state | was in, he did not persuadefurther and simply draped his coat on my shoulders and sat
down next to me.
I leaned on his shoulder and pretended to fall asleep, hoping that Theo would tellthat it was all just a dream
when | opened my eyes.
"I think the medical profession is just too dangerous. Who do you think Doctor Zac offended? Why is he suddenly

| heard two nurses mumbling in the distance. Doctor Zac was considered young and capable among all the
doctors in this hospital, so it cas no surprise that the young nurses would talk about him. "Yeah, it's sad to
think about it. Look, he just woke up and is already brought to have his statement taken. It must be hard on
him."
As soon as | heard what they said, | immediately opened my eyes. Theo, who was next to me, obviously heard
them too. Before he could react, | got up and rushed toward Doctor Zac's ward.
Theo tried to stopfrom behind. "Wanda, the police officers are already taking his statement. Let's just wait a
bit more. The police officers will tell us once they're done questioning him."
| shook my head. "No, this can't wait any longer. | must go there right now."
In any case, Dr. Zac would be telling the truth. It was the swhether he said it once or twice. Besides, | could
not wait until the police officers toldthe results.
Theo knew there was no way he could persuade me, so he could only relent.
In the corridor, | saw a police officer guarding the door from afar. He sawrunning over as well. Out of his
professional instincts, he stood forward to stop me. Maybe he sawwearing a hospital gown,
he did not touchand merely raised his hand to keepout.
"Ma'am, you can't go in right now. They're taking his statement inside."
"I know. I'm a family member. The child who got kidnapped is my child. Letin!" | roared angrily and soon
attracted a large crowd of hospital staff.
Theo rushed up toand embracedfrom behind to calmdown, but I still twisted the door knob of the
ward while there was chaos. | pushed two people away and rushed inside.

The police officer taking a statement in the ward was obviously not as polite. As soon as he saw me, his
expression immediately turned grave. "Please don't interrupt our job, Ma'am, or we will-" "What are you doing
here?" At the critical moment, Doctor Zac, who was still laying half-awake on the hospital bed, uttered such
puzzling words. Everyone was stunned.
The police officers turned around to look at him. "Have you seen her?"
On the bed, Doctor Zac weakly said, "She's the child's mother. She's also the one who orderedto take the
child outside."
| strongly suspected my ability to hear at that very moment. Did something happen due to my anxiety? Why did
Doctor Zac say that | was the one who told him to take the child outside? When the police officer heard what
happened, he thought it sounded strange as well.
Seeing this, Theo went up and politely said to the police officer, "Sir, please forgive my wife's reckless behavior.
She's just too worried about our child. That's why she barged in. She means no harm." It was only then did the «
police officer let go of his hand and nodded to express his understanding.
