Chapter 1294
"What's wrong?"
The coldness in Julian's voice made the air in the clinic turn chilly.
Julian and Diana were dressed in high-end, tailor-made clothes. Both carried a noble air about them. Their furrowed
brows made the doctor anxious.
The tension in the air was suffocating.
At the sight of the doctor remaining silent, Julian’s voice turned a pitch higher. "Why are you not talking?"
What else could the doctor say? He was on the verge of passing out at Julian's frightening aura.
Before they went to the public hospital, Diana had given Julian a stern warning.
The doctors in public hospitals had to see many patients. Be it the nurses or the doctors, their attitudes wouldn't be
as servile as those in private hospitals.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGiven that this was her third pregnancy and that she was carrying twins again, she found that giving birth in a public
hospital with a neonatal department and a blood bank was a more reliable choice in her situation.
Yet, Julian was already displaying such impatience at his second visit.
She reprimanded Julian coldly, "If you don’t even have an ounce of patience, go wait outside! Doctors are very
busy. Even if there really is something wrong, you still have to give the doctor time to think through his words
instead of just showing him attitude right from the start."
A look of gratitude flashed past the doctor's face when he heard what Diana said.
It was tough being a doctor these days. Even more so in a public hospital.
Many patients consider themselves a paying customer of the hospital and demand top-notch service, making things
difficult for the doctors.
In cases where patients couldn’t be treated, some family members would even threaten them with physical harm.
People like Diana who spoke up for the medical team and scolded their own family members were few and far
between.
The main thing was...
The doctor couldn't help but look up to Julian. This man was outstanding in both his looks and aura.
When Diana berated him just now, far from getting upset, he actually gave a guilty smile and swung Diana's arm
consolingly. "Honey, I’m just concerned for you. I'm just too anxious. I'm not impatient or frustrated at all."
He even looked pleadingly at the doctor, and apologized," Doctor, my tone made you uncomfortable just now.
Please
forgive me."
For some reason, Julian's apology made the doctor feel as though his life was being cut short before his eyes.
He immediately waved his hands, and said, "It's alright. Your wife's condition is very straightforward. The twins need
a lot of nutrition to grow. At this stage, they need a large intake of micronutrients."
He tapped on his keyboard, and went on, "Look at this list of micronutrients. Your wife needs two types of

By right, Diana should have done a check-up for her thyroid in the twelfth week of her pregnancy.
However, her medical records showed that she hadn't gone through that. Her numbers during this check-up were a
lot higher compared to what was normal.
"I've prescribed her some medicine," the doctor said, as he glanced at Julian. "Proceed to make payment, and
remember to drop by the pharmacy for the medicine. Do take the medicine on time. She’ll have to come back
every month to check her thyroid. Otherwise, it might affect the fetuses' mental development or cause postpartum
preeclampsia."
Diana didn't care about her own health. She felt more upset over what the doctor said about affecting the fetuses'
mental development.
Since the start of her pregnancy until now, her babies in her womb only recently started torturing her.
It was unlike her pregnancy with Sean and Betty, during which she feared every little thing and wanted to go to the
hospital for a check-up. She was clearly less anxious during this pregnancy.
She didn't even bother going for some tests in the twelfth week of her pregnancy.
She didn't expect problems to arise with her thyroid, which was precisely what she neglected her check-ups.
