Chapter 168

    Mnie did not evade him and just maintained eye contact. “You just don’t think there is.”


    Eugene remained silent, but his expression clearly showed his disbelief. Mnie did not want to argue with him over this issue and just said, “I’ll have Yanae up to get the filester.”


    Her grandfather had been in the hospital for a few days, and his condition had improved a lot. At least he could speak much more clearly than before. However, talking about Dn still stirred up the old


    man’s emotions.


    Mnie had asked him several times about what she said to him, but he always waved his hand, unwilling to say more. He only sighed involuntarily.


    Mnie did not press him further. She looked at histest test results, feeling much relieved. ” They’re mostly normal. Just rest for a couple more days.”


    Her grandfather had be much thinner, and the white hair on his temples had be more


    prominent. After leaving things to the caregiver, Mnie went to look for the doctor with the results.


    The moment she left the ward, she received a call from a previous client. The hospital was noisy, so


    she had to step outside to take the call. When she finished addressing the client’s concerns and


    returned to the inpatient department, she ran into Ste.


    Ste cast her an unfriendly nce and said with displeasure, “I really run into you anywhere.”


    Mnie paused and said softly, “I won’t disturb you.” She turned to leave, but Ste stopped her. ”


    Wait a moment.”


    Ste handed a form to Mnie and imperiously instructed, “Go and make an appointment for my afternoon check–up.”


    Holding Ste’s examination form, Mnie did not move and just apologized, “Sorry, I have other


    matters to do and can’t help you right now.”


    Ste nced at Mnie with her striking and piercing eyes. “What did you say?”


    It was the first time Mnie had refused her, and Ste found it somewhat unbelievable.


    Mnie’s face remained calm as she returned the form to Ste. “Madam Scott, I’m sorry, but I can’t assist you at the moment. If you need help, you can go to the information desk.”


    Ste did not take the form and observed the paper in Mnie’s hands. She then looked up at Mnie with a mocking gaze. “Eugene dumped you and now you’re putting on this farce?”


    Mnie knew Ste had never liked her. Her fingertips curled slightly. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Vi’s amused voice. “Aunt Scott, why did youe over by yourself? Didn’t I ask you to wait for me over there?”


    Right after she said that, she arrived in front of Mnie. Seeing Mnie, she hesitated for a moment,


    a subtle frown appearing on her forehead as she asked, “Mnie, why are you also at the hospital? Did you, um, arrange to meet Aunt Scott?”


    Mnie looked at Vi’s probing expression and said calmly, “No.” She took the opportunity to hand the form to Vi. “Aunt Scott needs her check–up scheduled.”


    Vi quickly took it. She had been trying to find a chance to meet Ste but could not get close to her. It was only yesterday when she identally overheard Eugene talking on the phone about Ste going to the hospital for a check–up and wanting Mnie to apany her that she found an opportunity.


    She voluntarily offered to apany Ste, using the excuse that Mnie seemed busytely and had family matters to attend to. Vi wanted to make her presence felt in front of Ste.


    With a cutesy and ingratiating smile on her face, she turned to Ste. She said warmly, “Aunt Scott, I’ll help you make the appointment.”


    However, her attempt to act cute went unappreciated by Ste. There was undisguised disdain on her face as she replied in a way that showed no regard for Vi, “You think I need help with my matters?”
