Chapter 202: Chapter 202: Five Months Later (8)
Bernard Taylor had his own car, and he used it all the time before. So Avery Graham had been counting the days until she could go back, and the day had finally come. The thought of getting rid of Bernard Taylor made her very happy.
If the nurses at the hospital knew that Avery Graham was so repulsive to their hospital’s god-like doctor Bernard Taylor, they would definitely drown her in their saliva.
But this was indeed Avery Graham’s true thought. She didn’t know if she was innately at odds with him, but she just didn’t like him. Strangely enough, she had lost her temper in front of Bernard Taylor several times, and yet he never genuinely got mad at her.
Hadn’t the previous rumors said that no one dared to lose their temper in front of Bernard Taylor?
As it turned out, it wasn’t that they didn’t dare to, but no one had ever done it in front of him. And what happened when she, Avery Graham, did? Nothing really — she was still safe and sound without missing any limbs.
"I gave my car away, so we’re taking this one instead." Bernard Taylor sat in the row behind her and explained.
"...Wow, rich people are really capricious." Avery Graham muttered, then tried to squeeze in with Carolline Ruiz. When she saw Carolline’s condition, her jaw almost dropped, "Carolline, you, you, you...what’s going on with you?"
Why was her belly so big? Was she pregnant or did she have worms in her stomach?
It wasn’t her fault for thinking this way. Before, she and Bernard Taylor had received a patient like that - a woman in her forties with a frighteningly huge belly who still had her monthly period. A series of B-ultrasound examinations and blood tests proved that she was not pregnant. It was only after a thorough examination that they found out that her stomach was infested with many worms. When those worms were removed, Avery Graham almost vomited to death.
She was just an ordinary nurse who administered IV drips and injections to patients. But when Bernard Taylor dealt with that surgery, he actually let her follow him into the Operating Room, where she vomited directly.
She hadn’t eaten well for several days, thinking about that scene preventing her from swallowing anything. However, Bernard Taylor didn’t react at all and looked at her disdainfully. She held a grudge against him for that.
Because of that surgery, Avery Graham’s memory was too deep, so she didn’t think about it too much.
"You call yourself Carolline’s best friend, yet you don’t even know she’s dating Andy Aguirre. When we get back, they’re going to have a feast, and you better prepare a gift." Carolline didn’t answer, but Gavin Campbell explained for them.
Yes, although Carolline and Andy knew there wouldn’t be anything between them, they never had a chance to explain it to Gavin Campbell and didn’t want the villagers to know anything.
But Gavin Campbell just had too big of a mouth, and as soon as he got in the car, he blurted out their secret.
"..." Avery Graham suddenly opened her mouth wide, forming an O, "So are those rumors all true?"
"What rumors?" Carolline and Gavin Campbell asked in unison.
"Um, it’s just, just..." Avery Graham thought Carolline knew, and even if Carolline didn’t know, Gavin Campbell must know, right? But how could he, this kid, be as surprised as Carolline?
Avery Graham glanced at Andy Aguirre and didn’t know what to say - she could discuss the matter in front of one of the parties involved, but both were there, so how could she talk about it?
"What is it? We have a long trip, so let’s have a good time listening to it." Gavin Campbell thought the journey was so boring, and it would take so long to get to G City. How could he sleep all day in the car?
"I’ll tell Carolline privately when we get back." Avery Graham thought about it and came up with a great idea, glaring at Gavin Campbell.
After glancing at Andy Aguirre, in the end, Avery Graham sat next to Carolline, side by side.
The two girls whispered and talked about their longing for each other after months of separation. Even though Avery Graham was incredibly curious about Carolline’s pregnancy that Andy Aguirre was responsible for, she didn’t dare to say too much or ask too many questions since Andy Aguirre was right there.
Carolline was also relaxed for a while.
On the way, with some stops and eating lunch, Carolline got sleepy, and after a long nap that lasted almost the whole afternoon, she finally woke up.
Avery Graham wasn’t bored either, as there were more colleagues from her workplace on the way back. Bernard Taylor and Andy Aguirre both closed their eyes to rest, and there was no conversation along the way.
When they arrived at G City, it was already 8:30 pm. The government sent representatives to pick them up, and each hospital had representatives to welcome their triumphant heroes. Among the representatives from People Hospital, apart from the dean and some key personnel, there was also Megan Clifton.
Carolline, who was groggy from sleep, naturally didn’t notice her, but Andy Aguirre saw her as soon as he got off the car. Perhaps it was because they had spent so much time abroad that Andy Aguirre was so familiar with Megan Clifton.
Megan Clifton also saw Andy Aguirre first, and her eyes revealed many complex emotions. At that time, she was aware that Andy Aguirre was to return to the country early. She knew that coming back early would not be entirely without consequences for him. If he returned at the scheduled time, his starting point after coming back should be even higher than hers.
She was already the head nurse of the Internal Medicine Department’s nurse station. As a doctor, Andy Aguirre should at least be a deputy director, right?
But he insisted on coming back early, and no matter how she tried to stop him, Andy Aguirre wouldn’t listen. When she asked him why he had to return early, he refused to tell her anything.
She felt very frustrated, but eventually, after careful consideration, she didn’t impulsively follow Andy Aguirre back to the country.
It had only been a month since she returned. After coming back, she chose People Hospital because she knew Andy Aguirre would definitely work there. Moreover, Carolline was also in this hospital, so she could have friends here and not be lonely.
It was only later that she learned from other sources why Andy Aguirre had returned early - it was all because of Carolline. It was then that Megan Clifton realized that the woman in Andy Aguirre’s heart was Carolline, of all people.
While Megan Clifton was reminiscing, Carolline got off the bus with her big belly. Those who knew Carolline gasped in surprise, and so did Megan Clifton. Were these two doing something in Gratan Town?
