I paced around restlessly, not knowing the next step to take. I still hadn't left the hospital. From the information I managed to get, he was in a place that would take at least two days to arrive at.
The records manager had been reluctant to feed me information about the patient until I convinced her that I was a close friend.
Suddenly, something clicked in my mind. The system hadn't requested that I visit Bradford. It only demanded that I foot the bills for his major surgery. If I was able to make some calls to the hospital he was transferred to, within this night and tomorrow, then I'd be able to complete the task. The only thing that may hinder me was if the amount mentioned was more than what I had.
I checked all my bank accounts, the total amount there, summed to only two hundred and fifty thousand dollars. I earnestly hoped that his hospital bills wouldn't exceed that amount.
