A Crazy One-night Stand novel Chapter 50

Alina's heart was thumping like a drum. She rushed to Michael's bedside, her voice trembling. "What happened?"

Morgan pulled her aside and said with a smile, "Don't be anxious. Mike is fine. The nurse said that he showed signs of recovery. The specialist team and Dr. Bill will come soon."

"Really? Is he finally going to regain consciousness?" Alina grabbed Morgan's hand tightly.  

"Yes." Morgan nodded.

Alina looked into Morgan's eyes. For some unknown reason, she felt reassured by his firm reply. 

Bill quickly entered the ward in his white coat, holding Michael's medical records.

He placed the records on the bedside table and checked for Michael's pulse. After that, he glanced at the vital signs monitor beside the bed. 

Bill narrowed his eyes and turned to Alina with a smile. "Michael's condition is improving. He has already shown signs of recovery. When he fully regains consciousness, he will be out of danger. Don't worry, Michael's rehabilitation after the surgery will be under Lanthem Hospital as well. I guarantee that Michael will be as good as new after six months of therapy." 

"Thank you, Dr. Bill!" Alina felt a little embarrassed. Wilson's handsome face appeared in her mind. It was fortunate that Scumbag had helped out by sending Mike here. Otherwise, Mike's condition could have been worse. 

"Hey, don't be so formal with me. If you really want to thank me, put in a good word for me when you see Wilson!" Bill winked at Alina.

Alina laughed awkwardly. "Well, Dr. Bill, actually I am not very familiar with Wilson either."

"Tsk tsk, to be honest with you, don't copy Wilson's mannerisms. You'll make enemies everywhere. Take me as a role model instead. Look at me, I'm always pleasant and kind, full of empathy, and everyone likes me!" Bill launched into a string of self-praises. 

His speech was interrupted by the arrival of several doctors from the specialist team. Bill's playful expression disappeared and he put on a serious face. He informed the doctors, "The patient's recovery is good. Commence with plan A. From now on until the day of discharge, be on your toes as you monitor his recovery!" 

"Understood, Director!" Several specialists replied in unison.

Michael was arranged by them to go somewhere else to hasten his recovery. 

Alina wanted to tag along, but Bill smiled and stopped her. "Alina, you aren't a nurse, are you? After all, Michael is a man and unrelated to you. We will undress him later in order to undergo some therapy so that we can wake him up. Just stay in the ward, okay?"

As soon as she heard this, Alina felt embarrassed.

Morgan patted Alina's shoulder. "Stay here and wait. I'll accompany Mike!"

"Thanks, Morgan!" Alina thanked him gratefully.

Alina felt upset at her helplessness. She was constantly inconveniencing others.

"Sure," Morgan replied. He helped the nurses and doctors to push Michael's bed out of the ward.

Alina waited in the ward. The next day, Michael was still not back. It was already noon. 

While she was waiting, she received a phone call from Rosie.

Rosie sounded very excited on the phone. "Alina, do you know how happy I am today? I am ecstatic! Two days ago, didn't I tell you that our new supervisor was both capable and easy to get along with? She gave permission for you to take leave as long as you need. Today, she transferred me to your team. We are in the same team now, not just in the same department. Now we can work together in the same space and sit across each other!" 

"Really?" Alina became a little excited.

"What do you think, Alina? Aren't you happy too?" Rosie exclaimed joyfully at the other end of the phone. "So, now you don't have to feel burdened about work. I will arrange for the transplantation of the plants into the landscaping. You also don't have to worry about any delays until next year. This afternoon, I will contact the nursery and finalize the dates for transplantation." 

"Great!" Alina beamed widely, her eyes twinkling. She continued hurriedly, "By the way, Rosie, Michael is going to recover now. Dr. Bill said as long as he wakes up, he will be out of danger."
