Chapter 93

I wasn't a doctor anymore, but I still spoke like one. "Dr. Ranford, you're a good doctor," the man exclaimed. "Where did you graduate from?" "Dynora Medical College." The man's eyes lit up. "That's a good one! But why would you work in a private setting? Did…" "I used to work at Central Hospital, but I was fired." I let out a bitter laugh. "Why were you fired? You're such a good doctor!" He was surprised. "Dr. Ranford was fired because he came here to perform surgery for you on short notice." Ms. Baldwin suddenly walked in. "Dad, don't you think the director of that hospital is crazy? Dr. Ranford was treating a patient in need, but they saw it as a violation of their policy. They fired him straightaway without even listening to his explanation." I was surprised; I had never told anyone about that, so how did Ms. Baldwin know? Meeting my gaze, she stuck out her tongue sheepishly and said, "Sorry, Dr. Ranford. I searched you up online and called the hospital to check. Then, I found out you were fired because of my dad." "I'm so sorry, Dr. Ranford. I will write a letter for you to submit to your hospital's director. You can appeal to get your job back. What do you think?" The man clearly hadn't expected that he was the reason I got fired. So, he became serious. I shook my head. "It's fine. I have a new job already." But he still felt bad. "It's still partly my fault. Once again, I'm sorry. My name is Ronald Baldwin, and this is my contact number. You can contact me anytime if you need help." Ronald Baldwin? I widened my eyes in shock. Wasn't he the mayor of Dynora in my past life, the one who died early? It turned out he hadn't died in this life and had in fact been saved by me! My heart beat faster, and I was exasperated. This was a mayor, after all! Although he wasn't as popular as the general, he was still considered an important figure in Dramonia. "Dr. Ranford?" Seeing how I was in a daze and had yet to take his business card, Mr. Baldwin spoke up in confusion. "I didn't expect you would turn out to be the mayor." I shook my head. I was dealing with a big shot. "Ah, it's no big deal. I'm also just a normal citizen." Mr. Baldwin shook his head with a smile. Looking at the number saved in my phone, I was stunned. I had saved the mayor! The old me would never have dreamed of ever doing that. Mr. Baldwin was indeed a good mayor; he considered many things for the people, but it was too bad he had died early in my past life. The official obituary stated that the cause of death was a cerebral hemorrhage brought on by overwork and illness and that resuscitation efforts had been unsuccessful. I looked at the man in front of me, who seemed to be fine. I turned around to remind Ms. Baldwin, "Ms. Baldwin, please take good care of your father. Don't let him overwork. Work is important, but his health is more important. If he's gone, then everything else will be pointless." Ms. Baldwin nodded. "Dad, did you hear that? Even the doctor said that. Can't you just rest?" Mr. Baldwin felt helpless. "Alright, alright, I get it." "You say that all the time, but have you ever really rested? I don't care. I'm going to keep an eye on you from today onward, and you're going to sleep properly!" This incident had indeed scared Ms. Baldwin. If something like this happened again, would they be lucky enough to get a doctor in time? She didn't even dare to imagine it.
