Chapter 200
Love Is Fair
Chapter 200 After a good nightâs sleep, Floppy was so well behaved that he didnât even bark. In the early morning, eating breakfast cooked by Kyle, Hailey was in a good mood and felt refreshed.
Nicholas and Kyle did not hire a nanny, both of them were busy with their work and had little time to tidy up their home, so they often hired a part-time worker to clean up their home. The place was very clean and tidy. And it was very homey. In the living room, there were two cushions on the large European-
style sofa. They were a pair of cartoon portraits of Kyle and Nicholas, which were given to them by Hailey a few years ago and they were still well kept here today. On the TV stand were photos of Nicholas in a suit and a photo of Kyle in a white coat. At first glance, one could clearly see there were no clothes inside the white coat. There were also photos of the two together, in all kinds of styles, casual, formal, old-fashioned â¦â¦ shoulders to shoulders, and posing intimately. Hailey had been staring at them and appreciated them for a long time before she realized afterwards that this seemed to be â Wedding photos!
Kyle handed the buttered slice of bread to Hailey and then passed her a glass of milk. âDrink this.â She took the slice of bread but was going to take a pass on the milk, as she was never the biggest fan of it.
âI donât like this stuff; it smells like leather shoes.â Kyle insisted. âItâs for protein.â Hailey then picked up the hard-boiled eggs. âThen I can eat two more eggs and get my protein as usual.â
Kyle shook his head helplessly, unable to do anything about her, so he had to enjoy two cups of milk all to himself. âI seem to remember that mym doesnât like milk either.â Kyle poured down half a cup of milk and pondered, âI guess itâs a genetic thing.â Hailey couldnât agree more. How else could it be that everyone else found milk to be nice, but only she found it to be stinky? But having inherited so many good genes from her mother, this little flaw was nothing for Hailey, as no one was perfect, and she took it in stride. âThe surgery is scheduled for ten in the morning, do you want to go and meet the patient and have a chat?â Hailey took a sip of her juice and nodded. âDefinitely. Although I have learned the basic situation, we still need to meet the patient in person to know the specifics.â The two siblings quickly finished their breakfast and rushed to the hospital. Kyle was born into a family of distinguished doctors.
His ancestors had been doctors for three generations, and his grandfather had built a high-end medical institution in Berny. The current director was Gremio Welch, Kyleâs father, whom Hailey called Fourth Father. Under the guidance of his grandfather and father, Kyle, the only son of the Watson family, had no choice but to follow in his fatherâs footsteps and become a doctor, and he was now the signature of Leacham Hospital. Kyle specialised in neurology, while Hailey was the expert when it came to neurosurgery.
The medical team was ready to go. Hailey went to the dressing room to get changed and then took the medical staff to the ward to check on the patientâs condition. Kyle, also dressed in a white coat, walked alongside her in the direction of the special ward, while reminding her, âThe patient is not very stable, so you should pay attention to your attitude and wording, so as not to touch his sensitive nerves.â âI know.â Hailey had seen all kinds of patients before, and she had even seen a patient as difficult as Owen, so she was never afraid of dealing with patients. As she walked to the door of the ward, she saw a thin, frail girl sitting on a bench at the door, lost in thought. It was only when Kyle called out to her that the girl came back to her senses. She slowly looked up, and Hailey saw an extremely innocent and pretty face, with big watery eyes and a timid and well-behaved look, looking naive and unworldly. âDr.
Watson.â The girl spoke softly, with her voice dripping with a choked sob, but a smile lifted the corners of her mouth. She did not stand up, but simply dropped her gaze back onto Hailey and said in an inquiring tone, âThis is the one you were talking about, the almighty Dr. Grace, right?â âYes, this is Dr. Grace, who will be operating on Harrison Bush soon.â
Kyle gave the girl an introduction, Only then did the girl stand up and extend her hand towards Hailey. âDr. Grace, my boyfriend, Harrison, is counting on you now.â
Her attitude was not condescending, but her eyes were shining with hope and pleading. Hailey shook her hand back and said indifferently, âIâll take care of the operation, but even if the operation goes well there wi rehabilitation process afterwards, thatâs the kev to whether he can stand up or not, I hope you can be mentally prepared.â
âI understand, Iâm mentally prepared to face everything.â
The girl said, âI believe he will stand up and I will do everything I can to help him do so. Whether he can walk upright in the future or not.
I will always be with him.â
Hailey was struck by the resolute and certain light in her eyes. Somehow, she saw in this girl a reflection of what she once was. On the way here, Kyle had told her that Harrison had a girlfriend, a rich girl, who had loved him for many years. Even during those years when he became an undercover agent and his situation was unknown, she did not give up looking for him, and when she finally managed to find him, she was seriously injured and only one step away from paralysis. The Waterman family, with only one precious daughter, did not approve of them being together in any way, but Louise Waterman did not care, preferring to give up all the wealth to come and take care of her beloved without a second thought. âIn some ways, this girl is really quite similar to you, and itâs because I see your shadow in her that Iâm so attached to this patient that Iâve gone out of my way to ask you to come out.â. Kyle sighed lightly, âWhat I hope more than anything is that Louise doesnât repeat your mistake of being full of true love and selflessness, but in the end, itâs herself who gets hurt.â
The door to the ward was pushed open, and Hailey did not expect there to be friends of the patient inside, let alone Harrisonâs friends, who were these two guys. Not only did she not expect it, Matthew even less so. He sat cross-legged in a chair by the bed, just blowing off steam and talking to his old comrade, when the door was suddenly pushed open, and he turned his head to see the familiar and pretty face of Hailey. It was unbelievable enough that she was here, but the most unbelievable thing was that she was wearing a white coat! Wasnât that what doctors wore? âHailey?!â Matthew got up abruptly, and his peach blossom eyes were wide and round. âWhy are you here? And why are you dressed like this? Cosplay?â Cosplayed your ass.
Hailey didnât bother to pay attention to him, completely ignoring him and Owen next to him, and walked straight towards the patient on the bed, taking out his medical record and asking, âHarrison Bush, right?â Harrison gave a confirmation. âIâm your surgeon for your operation today, just relax and donât be nervous.â She said this rather gently. He nodded. âThank you, Dr. Grace.â
Owen looked at Hailey, who was once again wearing a white coat, and it was like he had gone back to three years ago, when he was lying on the operating table, watching in a trance as a figure was busy next to him. Everything seemed to have remained the same, but everything had changed again. Not as preoccupied as Owen, Matthewâs head was now blank, with only one voice echoing in his ears: Dr.
Grace, Dr. Grace, Dr. Grace â¦â¦ Finally, his throat strained and he almost roared, âYouâre Dr. Grace?!â
