Chapter 921: Chapter 921 Vincent
Charlotte Thompson looked up at the sound of the voice and was met with a handsome face.
"Vincent?"
Surprise was also evident in Charlotte’s voice.
After calling out the name, the golden-haired, blue-eyed man in front of her smiled even more broadly.
Doctor Vincent steadied Charlotte’s arm, his beautiful eyes sweeping across her cheeks, but then his expression grew a bit worried.
"What brings you to the hospital? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"
"No, I’m here to pick up a medical check-up report." Charlotte shook her head repeatedly, taking a step back to steady herself.
When her gaze fell upon the white coat Vincent was wearing, Charlotte spoke up, "You’re dressed like this... Weren’t you at a hospital in Ashton?"
Indeed, this Vincent was originally from Ashton, an internist at a renowned hospital, and even held a bit of fame in the medical field.
Previously, when Charlotte was pregnant and often feeling unwell, she had stayed in the hospital for a while, where she had by chance met Vincent.
Perhaps because of shared interests, they had struck up a friendship.
Catching Charlotte’s implication, Vincent straightened his back and nodded with a smile, "I’ve been assigned as the attending physician at this hospital. I was initially reluctant, but now it’s a different story."
"What, are they paying you more here?" Charlotte teased with a chuckle.
Vincent just looked into Charlotte’s eyes and laughed silently.
"I never expected to run into you again in Druarus." Charlotte straightened the outer garment that had slipped a little in her earlier movements as she spoke.
"I consider it a very fortunate event," Vincent enunciated every word carefully.
He had studied in Druarus before, so his Mandarin was very standard. He could easily converse with the people of Druarus, and Charlotte had been surprised when she first heard him speak it.
"I heard you had returned to Druarus, but you never got in touch with me afterward. You didn’t forget about your friend, did you?"
Vincent sighed, his face showing a touch of grievance.
He was handsome, his features not as angular and bold as typical Ashton men, but instead carried a softer appearance.
Now, as he frowned slightly, he looked somewhat pitiable.
Perhaps deliberately to tease Charlotte, he even exaggerated by clutching his chest, feigning sadness with downcast eyes, "I feel deeply hurt."
Charlotte couldn’t help but smile, "Alright, alright, it’s my fault. I’ll treat you to a meal some other time."
Only then did Vincent lower his hands, speaking softly, "Did you get the medical report? I can help you pick it up."
Reminded by Vincent, Charlotte also remembered the purpose of her hospital visit.
"I’ve already got it." Saying that, Charlotte glanced down at her watch.
The children would soon be out of school.
Not wanting to linger, she waved goodbye to Vincent.
"Then I’m off now, I’ll treat you to a meal when I have the time."
"I’ll send you..."
Vincent had started to follow Charlotte, but a young nurse stepped out of the department and hurried over when she saw Doctor Vincent.
"Doctor Vincent, there’s a patient here who needs to see you."
"You go ahead," Charlotte said to Vincent.
"Be careful, and send me a message when you get home."
Vincent watched as Charlotte walked away, a flicker of regret in his eyes, but he turned to take the file folder from the nurse’s hand.
"This patient previously..."
The nurse whispered to Vincent, but his thoughts had drifted elsewhere.
