Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 101

Noticing the odd expression on Natasha's face, Anthony followed her gaze and looked over.

Yet, he saw nothing.

“Did something happen, Nat?” Anthony asked, eyeing her.

Natasha shook her head again. “Nothing.

Maybe I made a mistake.”

Anthony scanned their surroundings and found nothing suspicious.

“Let's go,” Natasha said.

Anthony nodded and helped her to the courtyard.

They found an empty bench, and Natasha sat on it. As the sunlight poured over her, a warm feeling enveloped her.

However, the look of those eyes was etched in her mind.

She was constantly feeling uneasy.

“Anthony,” she said.

“Yes?”

“I'm feeling a little thirsty. Could you bring me some water from the ward?” Natasha asked.

Anthony glanced at her and nodded. “Okay.” With that, he left for the ward.

As soon as the boy left, Natasha got up and retraced her steps, making her way back to the ward of that man from before based on her memory.

When she arrived, she found that there was no one on the bed.

Just as she was engrossed in her thoughts, she suddenly had a feeling that someone was behind her. As she turned around, she saw the man she was looking for standing right behind her, staring at her sinisterly.

Natasha got a shock of her life.

Right then, a doctor rushed over and held the man. “Gary, you're being naughty again!”

The doctor turned to Natasha and apologized, “Sorry. He's... It's you?”

The doctor remembered Natasha very well because of her beauty.

“Hello,” she greeted.

“Hello. Are you a patient of our hospital, too?” the doctor asked, noticing the hospital gown on her.

Natasha smiled faintly. “I got into a minor accident.”

The doctor nodded. “What matters is that you're fine. I'm sure you'll recover soon.”

Natasha nodded.

The doctor then looked at the man beside him. “All right, Gary. You should return to your ward.”

The man said nothing and stepped into the room straight away.

After shutting the door, the man named Gary sat on the bed and fixed his eyes ahead in a daze.

Natasha noticed that his arm was bandaged. It was obvious he had been injured before.

“When... When did he return?” she asked.

The doctor sighed at the mention of that. “He was found this morning. He was sent to our hospital after getting knocked over by a car. We found out he's from our department and got him back. Thank goodness there were no major issues.” As he spoke, he glanced at Gary who was sitting in the room.

Natasha, too, looked at Gary and thought for a moment. “Does he not have any relatives?”

The doctor shook his head. “I heard they've all passed away. Besides, no one had been here to visit him during his stay here.”

“What about his medical fees? Who's handling that?” Natasha asked.

The doctor frowned and gave it a serious thought. “I'm not really sure about that. But I heard he has a fund from which he can take out a certain amount of money every year. So that must be how the fees are handled.”

After hearing the doctor's words, Natasha nodded.

“Why are you asking such a question?” the doctor asked, looking at Natasha.

She shook her head. “Nothing. I just find him... quite pitiful.”

“Well, there's only one person who's come to visit him so far.”

“Who?”

“You.”

Natasha was rendered speechless.
