Chapter 10 - Suspicious

Baldwin's Mansion

Upon entering the mansion, the security guard told me I would be escorted to Mr. Baldwin by someone from inside. As I stood through the massive wooden door, someone opened it, standing at the far side, allowing me to pass freely. Again, it was someone in all black, moving my gaze away from him, again, the inside of this house shocked me.

Roman and Greek architecture are prominent in the home design, which features a high ceiling with elaborate crown moldings, majestic stone pillars in classical lonic order, and lofty windows that give the home a timeless and aristocratic feel.

To emphasize the wonderful harmony between proportion, balance, volume and symmetry, the interior designer chose a subtle color theme, mainly a white washed palette with the structure.

As I was admiring this castle, someone called out "Follow me," and I saw the same guy who had opened the door for me earlier standing right beside me. I followed him behind to god knows where, it felt like I was being taken prisoner to my cell.

As we walked through the corridor and up the stairs, taking turns left and right, we finally reached one particular wooden door that was separated from the rest of them. I noticed this as I walked by, everything screamed money, from the show pieces to the furniture they had installed, and I still couldn't figure out who they were, "Go inside, Mr. Baldwin is in there" and he walked away without hearing me.

I stood there and thought before entering the door, should i just leave? But again the second thought of clause held me back, grouded here, still hesitated i moved my right hand and turning on the knob i entered the room.

After closing the door behind me, I scanned the whole room. One eye-catching feature in the overall bedroom design is the slight overhangs of the false ceiling, which look as if they are coming off in different places, Moreover, highlighted with hidden lights, they add much drama to the entire space, The brown marble flooring, dark brown furniture pieces, and bed back wall panelling complement each other, while the grey couch and bed add to the calm environment, It was quite spacious for it to be a bedroom, t was as big as my whole apartment.

And I can finally see Mr. Baldwin laying on the bed, exactly in the same position that the day I last saw him, I walked towards him and looked at his pale face which was covered in bruises and covering them had a oxygen mask which kept him breathing stable and he had saline going all through his arm to the glucose bottle stand and I somewhat felt bad about him and I don't even know why, or maybe because he is one of my patient and speedy recovery is what I expect from them as I've treated I want that in return from them, but he doesn't seem to be that case.

Monitoring the ventilator machines and all the things and taking the notes about his current condition, I place my equipment box on the bed side table and took out the syringe and filled it with antibiotics, I took his right arm and inserted antibiotics through a vein in the arm.

-Time skip-

It's been 3 hours and I was still here in the Baldwin's, monitoring Mr. Baldwin throughout the whole time as I had to watch over him if he the antibiotics did some kind of side effects, well it was the possibility and I had to be cautious, an hour ago a man who if I'm not wrong was the housekeeper of this mansion bought a coffee for me and went out, and I noticed one thing, it was I haven't seen any women in this whole house. And it made me think and had a question mark, I couldn't even figure it out, that all seemed too mysterious.

All in my thoughts until my eyes caught a sigh of something, it was at the very corner of the room high at ceiling, a camera was installed there, meaning if I'm not wrong keeping their eyes on Mr. Baldwin, but wait, why? It must be his son having these all done, then he would have just visited him to make sure of everything but then again another thought crossed, he looked extremely, meaning he might be busy all the time to even keep his eyes on Mr. Baldwin, yeah maybe that's why he had it installed them here, just as I was sorted with my thoughts, it hits me like a rock, that means he must be watching me now?!

It was 6 in the evening and I was on my way home, yes after spending all my day at the Baldwin's I'm finally free from there, I was goint to leave early from there but one of the guy's there told me that I'm going to watch Mr. Baldwin for the whole day and not to worry about anything as I'm going to get paid for my time there. Looking after my patient is priority I know this but just looking after one patient in particular plus at their house is just too much, not that I don't wanna co-operate with Mr. Baldwin but spending time there not doing anything but just sit and watch over the patient was just too tiring yet it made me go mad too, like how would you feel when someone just cage inside a particular space. It was such a long day for me in my entire life.

I again couldn't meet his son, whose name I forgot, okay whatever, I wanted discuss something with him but I think he's just too busy in his work that doesn't have a time for all these things, as all the things is done by he's men.

But I can finally breath fresh outside of that mansion not that I didn't liked it, it was good and the Greenery all the way around made me so happy, but it wasn't the place I would want to live, something sure was suspicious there my inner instinct tells me, and you could never go wrong with them.
