Chapter 121: There is Still Some Wealth Left
Dawn was gradually breaking, and Yusuf Zuck sat dozing outside the operating room. After bringing the injured young man to the hospital, he immediately paid the security deposit for admission, the emergency treatment fee, and other expenses. Rushing up and down the floors, he was kept on his feet for a full hour.
He was exhausted, and since he hadn’t really slept much the night before, he dozed off as soon as he had a chance to sit down and wait for news outside the surgery room.
By now, his hand was wrapped in gauze, a kind gesture from the charitable night shift nurse who bandaged it for free, simply out of goodwill.
When Yusuf first brought in the injured young man, the hospital had no idea what his name was, or his age; Yusuf didn’t know either. It was only after the doctor inquired that they learned Yusuf had passed by and rescued the man, thus acting as a Good Samaritan who also helped with the young man’s various medical expenses.
Such acts of kindness naturally earned the respect of others. Therefore, both the doctors and the nurses at the hospital had a very good impression of him, which made it no big deal for them to treat his injured hand for free.
"Mr. Zuck, the surgery has come to a temporary stop," said the doctor who walked out of the operating room and gently woke him as he was dozing off outside.
"Oh, how did it go? The guy’s not dead, right?" Yusuf immediately stood up and asked.
"There is currently no life-threatening danger, but you should try to get in touch with his family. His follow-up treatment requires a craniotomy, which carries a huge risk."
