Theodore needed to confer with the doctors about surgical arrangements, leaving Ariana to wait alone.

Noticing the time slipping away, Ariana calmly said, "It's getting late; I'll proceed with the test so we don't encounter any delays.”

Theodore nodded, contemplating having Horace accompany her, but Ariana insisted on going alone.

Given her familiarity with the hospital staff, Theodore reluctantly agreed.

As Ariana pretended to go for the test, she stealthily found a secluded nook to wait. When she spotted the nurse coming out with the prepared medication, she quietly followed her.
