Chapter 572 Bianca Bumped Into Queenie In The Hospital, Blood Test To Be Done...
In a blink of an eye, it was Saturday.
Saturday was when Wanda and Bianca had agreed to meet in the hospital.
Luke had something to attend to and could not accompany Bianca to the hospital, so he asked Zander to drive Bianca to the
hospital instead.
Luke instructed Bianca to take pictures of the report and send it to him when the check-up was completed.
As soon as she arrived at the hospital, Bianca received a call from her aunt, saying that she was in Building 6, Room 606.
Wanda told her to go to the specialist's outpatient room.
Bianca walked toward Building 6 but when she got to the front lawn of the hospital, she saw Queenie Zeigler dressed in a
business suit.
Queenie was clutching her chest with a frown as she hurried to the outpatient room.
Queenie did not notice her and disappeared around the corner in a blink of an eye.
Bianca wanted to say hello to her but it was too late.
Bianca frowned and was worried about Mrs. Norman. Was she sick? Why was there no one accompanying her?
For some reason, everytime she saw Queenie, Bianca would feel an unspeakable affection for her.
However, she was Leia's mother.
Although Queenie had persuaded her to leave Luke before, Bianca still held the same affection for her.
The feeling she had was inexplicable.
Bianca shook her head and continued to walk toward Building 6.
After walking for about five or six minutes, Bianca arrived at the room that her aunt had told her about.
She knocked on the door and went in.
Zander waited in the corridor.
Inside, a female doctor with glasses who looked like she was in her 40s or 50s was examining Wanda's breasts.
"Ms. Wanda, your situation is not optimistic. I think it is necessary to go for surgery. Delaying it will only make it worse," the
doctor said in a serious tone. When she looked at Wanda, she had a pained expression.
Wanda's expression was gloomy. She touched her chest with tears in her eyes.
When she noticed Bianca coming in, she hid the grief in her heart and waved to her niece. Wanda put on a smile and introduced
Bianca to Dr. Lake, "This is my niece, Bianca. I've mentioned her to you before. Please do a thorough check-up on her. I’m really
worried that she'll have to go through what I did..."
She also introduced Dr. Lake to Bianca, "Bea, this is Dr. Kirby Lake. She's a postdoctoral fellow from the University of Tokyo.
She’s currently a doctoral supervisor in the Department of Medicine at Harvard, majoring in breast cancer. She’s an expert in the
field. I feel assured that she’s the one doing a check-up on you.”
Dr. Lake was a mature woman who looked plain compared to Wanda.
However, Bianca could tell that Dr. Lake was well-established in her field.
Bianca greeted the doctor politely, "Nice to meet you, Dr. Lake."
Dr. Lake liked Bianca who was polite and well-behaved.
She could not help but observe Bianca. She jokingly said to Wanda," Wanda, I didn't expect your niece to be so beautiful. How
could you have hidden her from me? We could've been in-laws if my son had dated your niece. You should've introduced us
earlier!" "Come on, your son is far away in Japan and is only in the country several times a year. I can’t bear to send my niece so
far away. Women who move to other countries with their partners have to start their lives in a foreign land with no one familiar to
support them when they need it. I would prefer if Bea stayed in the country,” Wanda replied with a light sigh.
Dr. Lake patted Wanda on the shoulder and knew that she was in a dark place. She immediately said domineeringly, "I was
kidding! Wanda, don't let the negative emotions control you, okay?"
Bianca could see that although her aunt and Dr. Lake seemed like they were quarreling, they were close.
"Dr. Lake, how’s my aunt doing?" she asked worriedly.
When she walked in, she thought she had heard Dr. Lake say that her aunt's condition was getting worse.
However, to her, Aunt Wanda always looked happy and healthy.
Sometimes, she even forgot that her aunt was a cancer patient.
"Your aunt, she..." A cloud of sadness appeared on Dr. Lake's face.
She was about to tell Bianca the truth but Wanda cut her off. "I'm in good health. I just need to take medicine every day. Kirby,
please go ahead with Bea's check-up."
Dr. Lake immediately regained her professionalism and went on to ask Bianca questions.
She talked to Bianca while taking notes on her laptop. She appeared responsible and professional.
Then, Dr. Lake carefully inspected Bianca's breasts with her hands but did not find anything resembling a lump.
She smiled and said, "Wanda, your niece's breasts have no lumps. She's perfectly fine."
Wanda still felt uneasy and insisted, “Can we do a B-Scan for Bea? I just want to be sure."
Bianca asked hesitantly, ’Dr. Lake, I’m pregnant. I just want to make sure that the ultrasound will not affect my baby..."
Dr. Lake smiled and said, "Relax, ultrasound is not radioactive and has no effect on your fetus. It's possible to do a B-Scan
during pregnancy."
Bianca was relieved and proceeded with the scan.
The results showed that Bianca was fine.
Dr. Lake did several other tests and they all showed good results.
Dr. Lake suggested that Bianca up her glucose intake after she found out that she was 22 weeks pregnant and go for blood tests
to screen for gestational diabetes as well.
The family doctor was responsible for Bianca's check-ups, and she did it once a month.
Since it was about time for her to get the blood test again, Bianca decided to get it done in the hospital.
Wanda accompanied Bianca to the blood sample area to draw blood.
Unexpectedly, Bianca bumped into Queenie again.
She was at window one, while Queenie was at window two.
When Queenie saw Bianca, she was taken aback when she noticed her baby bump.
Queenie and Wanda smiled at Queenie.
Queenie had an indescribable feeling for Bianca who was about the same age as Leia.
Although Bianca had indirectly contributed to her daughter's failed relationship and emotional breakdown, she just could not be
mad at Bianca.
She was a little puzzled. It could be because Bianca had an innocent face, so she could not get angry at her.
Bianca wanted to ask about Queenie's condition, but she noticed that a nurse was staring at Queenie and her. The nurse then
said, "Madam, you and your daughter can collect your test results together later."
