Benjamin Chu exited the bedroom and frowned at the sight of an incoming call from Andrew Lindsey. This assistant of Victor's was competent but somewhat stubborn.
Benjamin Chu answered the call; there was only a brief greeting addressed to Mr. Parker before the voice went silent. Benjamin looked at his phone, tapped a few times, but it remained unresponsive.
The butler glanced over and walked up, "It might have run out of battery. Dr. Simms is waiting for you to conduct the examination; perhaps I could first help you charge your phone."
Benjamin handed the phone to the butler, lifted his hand to his chest, as if in unbearable pain, though his face showed none of it.
"Give me your phone. That kid Andrew would never call so many times if there were nothing wrong." Benjamin's temple beaded with sweat as he asked for the butler's phone.
Just as he was about to make the call, a doctor stepped out and snatched it away, "Are you intent on wearing out your secondhand heart?"
