Chapter 99: Sneaking in
Alina sat in her car at the hospital gate, staring out at the hospital garden through the windshield. She watched as Beatrix walked with a friend through the manicured lawns and flower beds.
It has been almost a month now and she still hasn’t had an update on Damien’s condition.
She was going crazy. The security on the hospital was tight and the fact that the Americans hadn’t attacked them yet was making her restless.
They were too quiet for her liking. It was almost as if calm before the storm.
Alina had been trying to gather any information she could about Damien’s condition.
So she had resorted to spying on Beatrix, hoping to catch a glimpse of Damien or overhear any conversations about his health.
As she watched Beatrix and her friend chatting and laughing, Alina couldn’t help but feel a twinge of jealousy. She wished she could be the one walking with Beatrix, discussing Damien’s progress. But she knew she couldn’t just approach Beatrix out of the blue. She had to be careful and come up with a plan.
Alina drummed her fingers on the steering wheel, trying to think of a way to approach Beatrix without raising suspicion. She knew she couldn’t just walk up to her and start asking questions. She would have to be subtle and try to gather information in a more subtle way.
As she sat in the car, watching Beatrix and her friend, Alina made a decision. She would have to come up with a plan, but she was determined to find out the truth about Damien’s condition no matter what it took.
