Chapter 713 - Trouble in LA Medical Center (3) (1/2)
~ LA Medical Center, VIP room ~
Felix is looking at the time. 'Sarah was supposed to be here by now.'
He felt awkward that he is just sitting there and waiting for someone to enter. Sarah and Aiden, hopefully.
Felix wants to go in the bathroom and be with Sophia, she must be anxious now, but he knows that he should not do that.
Right now, he is a guard, and he will not let anyone go past him into that bathroom. No one gets close to Sophia and his baby daughter.
Ah, if only JoAnna is here. She would dispel any crazy thoughts about fake doctors and nurses.
Felix finds it strange that since that nurse told them to wait for additional tests, no one came to check on them. That was more than half an hour ago. Before that, nurses and doctors were taking turns examining Sophia and there was no more than a minute or two long breaks between exams. Something is definitely off.
And he still can't get a hold of Ryan or Levi. Felix is confident that something happened. He can only hope that those two are OK. Their phones are ringing, but they are not picking up. That is not like them. Something happened…
There was a light knock on the door.
”Sophia Hill?”, male voice called when the door of the VIP room opened.
Felix felt a jolt when he realized that it's not Sarah or Aiden. He inhaled. 'It begins.'
Felix saw three men and a woman enter the room. Three of them look like medical staff and the fourth one is a… janitor? That does not look right. Why would a janitor enter at the same time with medical staff? Felix confirmed that these are definitely shady characters who want to harm them.
”Sophia Hill?”, male voice repeated. It is Lazo dressed up as a doctor.
”That would be my wife.”, Felix answered.
”We are here to perform additional tests on the patient.” Lazo explained.
Felix nodded telling Lazo that he understands. ”She is in the restroom. It might take a while. I suggest you come back later.”
”No worries, no worries. As a patient in VIP room, we are more than happy to wait.” Lazo smiled while his gaze didn't leave Felix.
”Will he go and clean up another restroom and come back later, or will he also wait?”, Felix pointed at the janitor (Pavle).
Pavle clutched the broom he was holding onto. ”I can wait few minutes. I will treat it as a break.”
”Do you need to wait inside room?”, Felix asked Pavle.
Pavle glanced nervously at Lazo, unsure how to answer.
They came with intention to beat up the husband and subdue Sophia. But since Sophia is not in sight, they need to play along until she comes out of the bathroom. After all, she is Milena's daughter, and they don't want to alert her in advance. Who knows what weapons she has on her? They need to catch her unprepared. Others don't know what to do, but they know that they will play their roles until Lazo gives them the signal that it's time to attack.
”You can wait outside.” Lazo told Pavle. ”We will call you in when the bathroom is free for cleaning.”
Pavle frowned slightly and walked outside. He didn't like that Lazo told him he will be called back to clean the bathroom. Why did he get the lousiest disguise? 'Next time, I will be a doctor.'
