Chapter 427


    That afternoon, Matthew returned to the hospital. There was a new nurse, and a group of nurses was


    gossiping with each other in front of the reception counter.


    “Hey, have you heard? I heard that the new nurse at our hospital is very pretty!”

    “Your information is so outdated. I heard about that yesterday. The nurse reported in yesterday. At the


    time, many doctors in the hospital were amazed by her.”


    “Right? I heard that dozens of doctors have been trying their best to get the nurse to join their


    departments.”


    “Those b*stards don’t have any good intentions in doing so. Just looking at a gorgeous woman is


    enough to make them go weak in the knees.”


    “Well, being beautiful is an advantage. You didn’t see that nurse yesterday. Apparently, she was the


    campus belle while she was in school. Even as a woman, I was amazed by her looks, so what more


    those b*stards.”


    “That news is outdated. Let me tell you; this afternoon, a few of the younger doctors nearly started a


    fight in front of the vice director’s office. The reason was that they wanted the nurse to be assigned to


    their departments.”


    “Seriously? All for the sake of a nurse? Do they need to go so far?”


    “Sigh. When will they start a fight over me? That would be awesome!”


    “Forget it. If you lost around 25 kilos, you might stand a chance.”


    “Say; which department do you think she’ll be assigned to in the end?”


    “I’m guessing that she would either be assigned to Tristan’s department or Steven’s department.”


    “Yeah, I think so too. After all, Tristan Fields and Steven Newton are both famous doctors in our


    hospital. Moreover, theye from a good family and are single. They will definitely not pass up on


    such a good opportunity.”


    “I’m sure you don’t know this, but I saw Tristan’s mothering to the hospital this morning. I’m


    guessing that she came because of this.”


    “Oh, wow! Was she here to check out her daughter-inw?”


    “Only Tristan would be a match for a beautiful woman like that. That’s quite suitable…”


    Listening to their conversation, Matthew felt rather speechless. Nearly getting into a fight over a nurse?


    Don’t they feel embarrassed? Even so, he didn’t put much thought into it as he headed directly to his


    department. As soon as he entered his office, he felt that something was amiss. His office had been


    cleaned—it was neat and tidy. Moreover, there was a strong scent of perfume in the air. Hence, he was


    very puzzled. I’m the only person in my department. Why would there be perfume in the air?


    Amid his confusion, a nurse walked in. When he took a closer look, it turned out to be Crystal! Then, he


    was momentarily taken aback. “Miss Harrison, w-why are you here?”


    Crystal wiped at the sweat beading her forehead and smiled. “Mr. Larson, I’m about to graduate soon


    and I need to start my internship now. So, I applied to be a nurse at this hospital. As your medical skills


    are excellent, I wanted to shadow you and learn some skills from you.”


    His heart thumped slightly. Was the new nurse they were gossiping about Crystal Harrison? The


    campus belle? The beautiful woman? That must be her! Then, he replied, “I’m sorry. My department is


    usually pretty quiet, so I don’t need a nurse. If you want to have practical experience, you should go to


    the other departments.”


    In response, she hurriedly said, “Matthew, I came here to learn from you. Don’t worry; I’m here to help


    you. I swear I won’t disturb you. Also, my office is right next door. If there’s anything you need, please


    don’t hesitate to call for me.”


    Watching Crystal as she left, Matthew felt a headacheing on. To be honest, he did not have a


    good impression of her. If she wasn’t Joseph’s granddaughter, he wouldn’t even bother giving her a


    single moment of his time. Rather, he couldn’t believe she was so thick-skinned that she still dared to


    approach him despite everything that happened. Even so, he said nothing more on ount of Joseph.


    In any case, Matthew’s department was truly quiet. Despite sitting in his office for two hours, not a


    single patient came in. At 5 PM, Joseph rushed to the hospital and personally picked Matthew up. After


    that, they went directly to Billy’s home.
