Chapter 1218: Chapter 1218: Meeting Vincent Again
Last time, media had barged into the hospital and conducted high-profile interviews.
Even though she had driven those people away at the time, there was no guarantee they wouldn’t continue to lurk outside the hospital.
Thinking of this, Charlotte Thompson’s gaze grew vigilant as she looked around.
What if some paparazzi were still squatting here and had captured the moment Olivia Thompson and Annie Anne had just left?
"Charlotte, is something wrong? You don’t look very well!"
Seeing Charlotte’s worried look, Vincent immediately asked with concern.
Charlotte did not answer, only shook her head.
However, remembering what she had said earlier, Vincent made his own guess.
"You’re worried about paparazzi following your friend, right?" He followed Charlotte’s gaze and looked around before finally giving her a reassuring smile.
"Don’t worry about it; today, there won’t be any media reporters outside the hospital."
"Why?" Charlotte was surprised, Vincent seemed so confident in saying that.
"Because this time, the academic exchange between our two hospitals is being conducted in secret. We will not disclose anything to the media until the final results are obtained. Since some issues have been exposed by the media before, both hospitals are taking the confidentiality of this event very seriously. It’s unlikely that media would get close to the hospital."
Unexpectedly encountering such a fortuitous coincidence, Charlotte’s tense body relaxed.
"By the way, how is Grace’s health? I remember notifying you to bring Grace to the hospital for a check-up, but I haven’t seen you there," Vincent inquired.
"Stardust Garden arranged a full set of examination equipment for Grace, and even brought in a highly professional team from abroad to carry out continuous check-ups, so we didn’t go to the hospital."
With the preparations made by Stardust Garden, Charlotte naturally didn’t want to put Grace through unnecessary trouble.
Besides, Grace’s condition has stabilized now, and the doctors said there’s no urgent need to find a matching heart transplant for her.
As long as she doesn’t undergo severe stress, Grace can continue living without a problem; it’s just that her heart function isn’t very good.
However, deep in her thoughts, Charlotte hadn’t noticed that after she finished speaking, a profound look flashed across Vincent’s eyes.
"I see."
Vincent nodded, "I’ve heard about the Clarkson Family’s influence, and the doctors Miss Clarkson has found are definitely reliable."
"However, since Grace is still young and hasn’t had heart surgery yet, anything could happen. It’s better for you to be careful."
"Thank you for the reminder, I’ll be careful," Charlotte nodded towards Vincent.
Just then, Vincent’s gaze shifted from somewhere and suddenly reached out towards Charlotte’s face, seemingly about to touch her cheek.
Charlotte was startled for a moment and intended to avoid it, but Vincent immediately said:
"Wait a second."
Vincent leaned in a bit closer, speaking cautiously: "There seems to be something on your hair."
Hearing this, Charlotte lifted her hair to check, and Vincent carefully touched Charlotte’s strands of hair.
Just by chance, their fingertips touched.
