"You really admire him."
"I admire you too!" Alia helped him with the blanket, straightened up, and stared at him with her beautiful eyes, continuing, "I not only admire you, I love and like you."
"..." Mr. Hart, who was initially a little jealous, was stunned by her sudden confession, his dark and captivating eyes were instantly chard, gazing at her foolishly.
Then, he beckoned with his finger.
"What?"
"Co here."
Alia saw the unclear look in his eyes, his sexy Adam’s apple moving up and down, instantly understanding what he was thinking, and her red lips curled into a smile as she leaned down.
The two kissed with great tacit understanding, Mr. Hart’s face, which had been uncertain, finally brightened, and he said affectionately, "You have to say these words every day from now on."
"..." Alia rolled her eyes, speechless.
Indeed... n are forever boys, this saying is spot on.
When they beco childish, they’re at most three years old.
"Alright, I’m settled here, you don’t have to keep watching over . After lunch, you should head back." With his mood improved, Christopher returned to his usual gentle and considerate self.
"But there’s nothing for to do when I go back. The kids have gone to your parents’ place and won’t be back without dinner."
Talking about this, Christopher felt grateful to her again.
"Alia, thank you."
"Enough, I’ve heard you thank so much these days, my ears have calluses." She feigned impatience, but actually felt very appreciated inside.
Many n often take won’s efforts and sacrifices for granted and benefit from them without gratitude, never expressing appreciation.
Over ti, won accumulate a lot of grievances in their hearts.
Feeling that their efforts and sacrifices are in vain, feeling aggrieved and unworthy...
Christopher’s willingness to often thank her indicates, at least, that he understands all this in his heart, making her feel rewarded for her efforts and at ease.
The phone rang, she glanced at the caller ID and smiled: "Snow is calling, probably she knows Doctor Smith is handling your surgery and wants to visit you."
Sure enough, as the call connected, Snow excitedly asked, "Is it really such a coincidence? Is the male god performing the surgery for your Mr. Hart? Oh, let tell you, I’ve been inquiring with my aunt these days, this Charles Smith is truly amazing! It’s said that even while studying in dical school, he had several papers published in The Lancet magazine—a true academic prodigy!"
"My aunt also heard that after studying abroad, he originally worked in Imperial Capital, but was invited by his teacher with the hospital paying heavily for talent introduction—that’s how he ca to River City! You guys are really lucky to have him handle the surgery!"
"Is that so?" Listening to this, Alia felt even happier, but she cast a sidelong glance at soone, sourly saying, "But soone doesn’t appreciate this, almost kicked him out."
"What do you an?"
"Soone might be jealous of Doctor Smith’s talent and charisma, originally unwilling to let him perform the surgery."
"What?" Snow exclaid, "Your Mr. Hart is being ridiculous again? He’s so... so petty! All your efforts aren’t enough to prove your feelings? Or is he now insecure, fearing he’ll lose you?"
"Haha, who knows."
Snow’s current thoughts were all on Charles Smith, after ntioning Christopher she lazy changed the subject: "By the way, have you found out about his personal situation? My aunt asked many colleagues but nobody knows about his private life, whether he’s married or has a girlfriend."
Alia, recalling an incident at the private kitchen, speculated, "He should be single."
"Really? Are you sure?!" Snow’s excited voice was loud.
"Um... that day, after we completed the transfer procedures, we had dinner together at a place he recomnded. He’s quite familiar with the owner—who, upon seeing , misunderstood, and said it’s rare to see a girl around him."
"Ahh! If a familiar person said that, does that an he never brings girls around? Hahaha, is he really single?"
"Yes, shouldn’t be wrong."
"Hahaha, when is your Mr. Hart’s surgery, I’ll co over to keep you company!"
Alia smiled knowingly, "I knew you’d use the excuse of keeping company to see the male god. However, the surgery ti isn’t set yet, once confird I’ll let you know."
"Alright, alright, don’t forget!"
After hanging up, Alia shook her head repeatedly with a wry smile.
Finally, this big-hearted silly girl Snow has reached the day of emotional awakening.
All these years, countless n pursued her, but she either looked down on them or tried to date for a few days without result, ending without a spark.
For the first ti, she’s so insanely and directly fond of a man, to the point of being unable to extricate herself.
Listening to her call, Christopher raised his brows, unable to conceal his gossiping heart: "Snow likes that pretty boy?"
"Can you be a bit more polite in your speech?"
"Those three words suit him well."
So genteel, fair-skinned and delicate, wearing rimless glasses, appearing harmless like a beast.
The easiest type to deceive won.
Alia unwillingly engaged with him, only thinking about how she could help her best friend get this quality male god without spoiling external opportunities.
In the afternoon, all of Christopher’s test reports ca out, and just as Charles Smith had said, his condition was more complicated than expected.
After another consultation, the surgery was scheduled for the following morning.
At dusk, Alia originally wanted to stay overnight to keep him company, but he refused.
"You’d better go back and take care of the kids. Relax, my situation isn’t new to , I’m already used to it, don’t think too much." Knowing she was worried about him, Christopher comforted her tenderly.
Seeing his insistence, Alia didn’t argue further, "Alright, then I’ll bring you breakfast tomorrow morning."
"Yep."
After exchanging kisses, Alia left the hospital.
As soon as she exited the elevator, soone exited the other elevator beside her, their eyes t, both were surprised.
"What a coincidence?" Alia smiled, quickly understanding, "Were you discussing the surgery plan with Director Lewis until now?"
"Yes." Charles Smith nodded, always looking at Alia with gentle and courteous expressions, "I was just about to contact you, didn’t expect to bump into you here."
"Contact ? What’s up? Is it Christopher’s surgery..."
"No, no, don’t worry, his surgery plan is set, Director Lewis and I will both enter the operating room, rest assured, we will give our all."
Charles Smith reassured her, then brought up the original matter he wanted to discuss, "It’s my father, he’s back in the country tonight and coming to River City tomorrow. Can you make so ti tomorrow afternoon?"
Tomorrow afternoon...
Alia thought about Christopher’s surgery in the morning and considered leaving in the afternoon...
"If it’s inconvenient for you, that’s okay, I’ve told my father about your situation, changing it to the day after tomorrow is fine."
Alia said apologetically, "But your father is very busy, surely he doesn’t have that much ti to stay. How about it’s still tomorrow afternoon... There are doctors and nurses here, I should be able to leave for a few hours without any problem."
