Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 3

Chapter 3 Retribution is Coming, You Can't Handle It

"Bang!"

Jason's mouth dropped open, looking as if he had seen a ghost.

The nurse beside him was also dumbfounded, wearing an expression of disbelief.

How could this be? How did she suddenly come back to life?

Was it a hoax?

"Daddy... is that you?"

"Daddy, don't leave!"

At that moment, Nora groggily opened her eyes.

Lachlan's departure to raise money had clearly left the little girl feeling uneasy.

All she wanted was for her father to be by her side during her final moments.

"Nora, you're really awake!"

"Daddy is here. Daddy will stay with Nora and won't go anywhere."

Tears streamed down Lachlan's face as he cried tears of joy and poured his warmth into Nora's body even more recklessly than before.

She woke up!

It actually worked. Nora really came back to life.

Lachlan was trembling with excitement, feeling like he had gone from hell to heaven. The sensation was so overwhelming that even a grown man like him couldn't help but cry.

He held Nora's small hand tightly, as if he had grabbed hold of the entire world. He was afraid that if he let go, it would all turn out to be an illusion.

No one could understand the joy and anxiety of regaining something they had lost until they experienced it themselves.

"Daddy, your hand is so warm and comfortable!"

"Why are you crying, Daddy? Don't cry, I don't want you to cry."

Nora's pale face turned red as she reached out her other small hand and wiped Lachlan's face.

"Okay, I won't cry anymore. I'm very happy!"

"Hahaha! You're okay now! My Nora is alive again!"

Feeling the clumsy touch on his face from that little hand made Lachlan feel more grounded than ever before. He laughed and cried at the same time like a nervous wreck.

"Daddy, I want to go home."

The little girl didn't know what had happened; she just didn't want her dad to spend any more money on her medical bills.

"Okay, I will take you home."

Lachlan hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement. He removed all the tubes attached to Nora's body and picked up his daughter in his arms ready to leave.

"Hold on there! You still haven't paid your medical bill yet; you can't leave!" Jason stood in front of Lachlan.

"How much money?" Lachlan asked coldly.

"38. 88 thousand dollars!" Jason said, taking out a list.

"What? How is it possible that there are so many?"

Lachlan's face darkened as he took the list and asked.

"Nonsense, do you think ICU lets you stay for free? Do special medicines not cost money?" Jason sneered.

"Why are there still special medicines being used on the prescription? Didn't you stop my daughter's medication because I owed fees?"

Lachlan saw through the trick in the list and angrily questioned it.

"Oh, I made a mistake just now. Your daughter's special medicine didn't stop today! Hurry up and pay, if I hadn't given your daughter the medicine, could she have survived?"

Jason's eyes flickered for a moment, and he shamelessly boasted.

"What is this progesterone injection? You deceitful doctor, trying to confuse me because I can't understand?"

Lachlan grabbed Jason's collar angrily, wishing he could kill that bastard right then and there.

Progesterone injection is generally used to prevent miscarriage in pregnant women or to treat menstrual disorders.

Nora was only five years old, how could she possibly need this?

This heartless doctor not only refused to save lives but also prescribed expensive medicine that swindled patients.

It was really pushing people towards a dead end!
