Even Xavier, who was lying on the bed, frowned. He shot a look of shock at Natasha.
“Ms. Watson, you're that secret rich lady?” asked Ross as he widened his eyes.
“Do you have a crush on...” Although Thomas did not finish his sentence, it was obvious what he was trying to say.
Xavier also glanced at Natasha with a conflicted look.
“You've got the wrong person,” said Natasha as she looked at the doctor.
Naturally, the doctor had no idea what had happened between them. Smiling, he replied, “Ma'am, you are underestimating a doctor's memory.”
“You've really got the wrong person.” Before they could say anything else, Natasha murmured, “I've got something to do, so I'll leave first.” With that, she left directly.
Everyone exchanged incredulous glances with each other in the hospital ward.
Meanwhile, the doctor did not notice anything. “All right. If there's nothing else, I'll continue with my routine checks.”
“Doctor?” Xavier called out to him.
“What's the matter?”
“Are you sure that she paid my hospital bills?”
“She said that you asked her to pay on your behalf. Is there a problem?” asked the doctor.
After a long while, Xavier shook his head.
“No...”
While the doctor left, the hospital ward was filled with an indescribable atmosphere.
“Is Xavier Ms. Watson's type?” Thomas could not help but ask.
Glancing at Xavier, Ross could not help but lament, “Ms. Watson is great, just that she's quite blind...”
It was not Natasha's intention to do good without claiming credit. Instead, she merely did not want to create unnecessary trouble.
After leaving the hospital, she hailed a taxi home.
However, immediately after she left, the three kids arrived.
There were a lot of people rushing in and out of the hospital. Since the three kids looked extremely out of place there, everyone took a second glimpse at them.
Anthony checked his phone for a while before keeping it. “I discovered that he's on the fourth floor. The three of us together would attract too much attention. We must split up.”
“Okay.” Benjamin nodded.
“Both of you can go in first,” suggested Denise.
“Okay. Stay here and don't move,” reminded Anthony.
“Don't worry. It's not my first time outside.”
Denise flashed him a reassuring smile.
Anthony and Benjamin headed in.
Feeling quite bored, Denise paced around the entrance. At that moment, a couple rushed over quickly without noticing her. They crashed into her, sending her falling to the ground.
When the couple saw that, they merely glanced at Denise and chided, “Why is no one looking after this child? She's running around wildly.”
Denise stood up and stared at her. “Ma'am, you seem to have horrible eyesight. You bumped into me when you walked over. I didn't even move.”
“Why are you lying, you brat? How uncivilized!” criticized the woman disdainfully.
Uncivilized?
When Denise heard that, she became furious. “Mommy told me that it depends on the person. There's no need to act in a civilized manner toward uncivilized people. Ma'am, you bumped into me!
Please apologize to me!”
