My Doting Husband

Chapter 23 Isn't He Your Uncle?

"What did I just do?" Emma looked at the nurse.

The nurse blushed, looked at her with a smile, and said, "I saw you kissing him. He is so handsome! You are so lucky..."

Kiss?

Emma's mind was wandering. Her eyes were a little dull because of a high fever.

Seeing Emma who was lying down weakly, the nurse helped her adjust the needle in her arm again, "I have to let the doctor give you a fever-reducing intravenous drip. You can’t be like this..."

Emma was thinking about that matter. She probably didn't hear what the nurse said, so she only nodded dumbly.

The nurse put away the thermometer, turned and walked towards the door.

When she reached the door, she suddenly turned back. Staring at Emma in astonishment, she asked, "I just remembered it. Isn't he your uncle?"

Emma was speechless.

On the first floor.

In the color ultrasonic room, Kate was lying under the instrument and undergoing the examination.

Outside the room, Ivan was sitting in the waiting area. After a while, he got up and walked towards the bathroom not far away.

After peeing, he stood alone in front of the sink, washing his hands gracefully.

Someone came out from behind. Soon, there was a pair of slender hands next to him.

The man turned on the faucet and scrubbed his hands carefully. His movements looked so elegant, and didn’t splash any water on the marble on the sink.

Following these perfect hands, Ivan raised his head and looked in the mirror in front of him.

Just a glance, his movements stopped.

They looked at each other in the mirror. Ivan was somewhat surprised, but Sean was not affected at all. With an indifferent face, he turned his gaze back and walked in the direction of the hand dryer. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

The noise of the hand dryer sounded. Ivan turned his head to look at Sean, but what Sean left him was just a back.

Ivan didn't know why he always felt that the gaze Sean looked at him was indifferent, but not friendly.

Sean made his hands dry, answered the phone by the way, and strode out of the bathroom.

Ivan suddenly remembered something. Before he could completely dry his hands, he had already strode out.

In front of the induction door of the emergency room, Sean had already stepped one of his leg out of the door.

Ivan just wanted to call his name, but was stopped by Kate, who had just come out of the color ultrasound room.

Kate stood behind him with the report in her hands. She followed his gaze towards the door, and asked, "Ivan, what are you looking at?"

...

Ivan turned around. His look was a little complicated.

He looked down at the report in Kate's hand and asked, "How is it?"

Kate blushed, and put the report behind her, "The doctor said there was nothing wrong with me. It’s just irregular menstruation, not bleeding. I overthought it..."

Ivan nodded, "Well. Let's go back."

Kate said yes, but did not move.

Ivan, who had already turned around, turned back again. He looked at her confusedly, "Why don't you leave?"

Kate was more blushed. She lowered her head and said in a low voice, "My high school classmate works as a nurse here. She told me when she accompanied me to do the examination just now..."

Having said that, Kate glanced at Ivan shyly, then quickly lowered her head. Then she continued, "She suggested that we’d better have a pre-marital physical examination..."

Ivan's face sank, but he didn't say anything.

After a while, he said "OK".

Kate was a little disappointed. However, watching Ivan striding ahead, she had no choice but to follow. But before leaving, she did not forget to glance towards the door of the emergency room...

On the weekend.

Albert Macey was so happy, because his two daughters came back together.

Today, Albert Macey was no longer the small vendor who set up a fruit stand on the side of the road.

A gold necklace which was as thick as a little finger hung around his neck. When he smiled, a row of brilliant white dentures showed on his swarthy skin.

Since he lived in a high-end residence in a prime area in the city, he had been restrained himself every day. In order not to shame his daughter Jessie, who was a star, he had recently learned from those people who had status. He was deeply afraid that he was worse than those people.

But even so, he was still like an upstart. He put on all kinds of famous brand stuff all over his body. Every time when he went to, he always liked to brag, wishing everyone would know that his daughter was famous.

Now, he was playing with a set of tea sets, clumsily learning from the complicated tea art on TV.

Jessie sat on the sofa beside him, smiling while holding an entertainment magazine in her hand.

Kate, who was on the side, kept bowing her head in silence. She seemed to be in a bad mood.

Bang! Albert himself overturned the teapot with hot tea in it. He was impatient and pushed the tea set away, "Fuck off!"

Jessie threw the magazine away and stretched out her hand to pick up the teapot. Just when she raised her head, she saw the big golden chain on Albert's neck, frowning.

"Dad, take the gold chain off your neck. It's ugly." Jessie said.

Albert glanced at his eldest daughter dissatisfiedly, "What's wrong? I like gold. It looks magnificent. I'm still going to change my Mercedes-Benz’s logo to gold in a few days..."

Jessie was stunned. Staring at her father who had a bad taste, she was speechless.

Imagining a million-dollar Mercedes-Benz which had the golden car logo on it, she couldn't help but feel creepy...

Kate, who was silent for a long time, finally spoke. She turned her head to Jessie and asked, "Sister, do you have something to tell me?"

Hearing Kate's words, Jessie just remembered something, "I almost forgot it. I just wanted to know how you and Ivan are going. Did he propose to you?"

Kate's face looked gloomy again. Then she shook her head.

When Albert heard it, he also raised his head and looked at his little daughter.

"Sister, I don't know if I'm too sensitive lately. I feel Ivan doesn't like me..."

Jessie frowned, “How is it possible! I saw him buy a ring at the counter of a brand jewelry store last month. How could he not act yet?"

Hearing Jessie's words, Kate's face became more solemn. She bit her lip without saying a word for a long time.

Kate hadn't spoken yet, but Albert, who was sitting at the side, spoke first.

With a confident smile on his face, he looked at his little daughter and said, "Kate, don't think too much. Maybe Ivan wants to give you a surprise. Besides, if he didn't have my help, could he have had today's achievements in L City? If he dares to be ungrateful, I will tell everyone what he has done. Don't worry! Your sister is famous now. Isn't it a trivial matter if she wants to let him gain extreme notoriety?"
