âWho are you?â
She stood up abruptly from the sofa. She was a little sleepy at first but seemed wide awake now.
The woman on the other end was hostile and asked her instead, âWho are you?â
Yvonne took a deep breath and said, âIâm his wife.â
The woman paused for a while before answering quietly. âIâm sorry. This is all a misunderstanding. Iâm Dr. Quirkâs patient...â
âMisunderstanding?â
Yvonne sneered.
The pause just now wasnât a misunderstanding.
All she needed to do was to write out her relationship with Hayden on her forehead.
âLet Hayden answer the phone.â
The woman hesitated. âHeâs...â
âWhat?â
Yvonne frowned. âDonât tell me heâs busy.â
âI think you should call again....â
With that, the woman hung up the phone.
âHello?â
Beep... Beep... Beep...
Yvonne looked at the screen and almost dropped her phone.
At the hospital With Yvonneâs personality, there was no way she would wait and stay calm.
Immediately, she headed to Haydenâs office.
No one was there, so she took the key and entered the lounge.
Whenever he was too busy with work, she would come to the hospital to find him.
She would patiently wait for him at the side and not disturb him.
Having a soft spot for her, Hayden gave her the key to his office, instructing her not to mess with his things, mainly the medical records. But other than that, she was free to do whatever she wanted.
Yvonne was in a terrible mood.
But she didnât go to him right away. Looking at his duty roster, she found that he was indeed working the extra shift, which abated her anger a little.
A young and handsome doctor like him was very popular in the hospital.
Although many knew he was married, women still threw themselves at him.
Yvonne naturally understood thisâit wasnât Hayden she didnât trust, but rather the myriad women who were deliberately throwing themselves at him.
But no matter what, he was also at fault for not dealing with this properly.
It left her in a dilemma.
âMs. Quirk?â
The nurse saw that the door was open, and since Yvonne was inside, she came in and said hello.
âAre you here to see Dr. Quirk?â
Yvonne had always been friendly, so she had a good relationship with the nurses.
She smiled and looked at the person outside the door. âYes, he has been working overtime for several days now, so I came to see him.â
âYou must really love Dr. Quirk.â
The nurse sighed. âHe should be doing rounds on the third floor now. Just wait.â
âThank you.â
Yvonne took out the food she had brought. âHere, eat something! I know the night shifts are hard.â
On the thirdâfloor ward Yvonne had never wanted to come to the hospital, but the womanâs voice on the phone was stuck in her mind.
She walked around casually, seeing patients who were resting, until she saw a room with lights on. She walked over slowly, and saw a woman with long hair and a shawl in a hospital gown slowly moving down from the hospital bed A tall man was lying beside the bed as if taking a nap.
She stopped in her tracks.
She recognized Haydenâs back at a glance.
The woman carefully lifted the quilt and looked at the sleeping man lying beside the bed.
Then, she immediately picked up the coat hanging on the side and gently draped it over him.
Feeling the weight on his body, Hayden frowned and subconsciously grabbed the hand.
âYvonne.â
