Chapter 636: Chapter 636: Gary Skate’s Identity (8)
"I mean, come on, he’s a businessman, not from the Health Management Bureau. He can’t investigate anything, so don’t add to the chaos." Carolline directly took a new bag of rock sugar and stuffed it into Megan’s arms, then took advantage of the situation to grab her cell phone. "Don’t listen to her nonsense, there’s nothing going on over here."
"Really nothing? If you need it, I can still find a way to help you investigate." Bryan Hawkins said seriously, but he was feeling a little anxious. He didn’t know why, but he suddenly became worried that Carolline would find out about his unusual relationship with Gary Skate, and he imagined that Carolline would be furious.
"No need." Carolline flatly refused, "It’s just work-related matters, Megan just exaggerated it."
"Well then, just remember, if there’s really anything wrong, you should come to your husband." Bryan didn’t force it on his end and had already planned to call Gary Skate later to ask for clarification.
"I know, I’ll use your words, and when I don’t want to work anymore, I’ll come home and let you support me, okay?" For once, Carolline made a joke.
Bryan laughed on his end and hung up with a cheerful mood, even if he knew that the matter still had a long way to go. But it was a good thing that Carolline’s thoughts had changed.
Megan, who had been listening, also smiled. After Carolline hung up the phone, she realized that she hadn’t left yet, "So you’re always ready to go home and be supported by your husband, no wonder you don’t care about anything."
"..." She was just humoring someone, and this person really believed it.
Megan only turned and left at this time. Carolline opened the computer and only then saw some gossip in the chat group. She casually browsed it but didn’t pay much attention.
After browsing the web, Carolline did some more work on her computer and then left her office room.
The Surgical Clinic was a bit busy this afternoon. Many people came in bitten by dogs, including children, elderly, and adults. The weather was hot and dry, and animals were also irritable.
Carolline helped out for a while, and when the number of patients decreased, she washed her hands, disinfected, and headed outside.
It was at this time that Edward Clark learned that Carolline was in the Surgical Clinic and came looking for her. Carolline and Edward met at the corner of the corridor, and he recognized her.
"Nurse Carolline, it’s good that you’re here. I have something to ask you, do you have time?" Edward came over, still being polite.
If it weren’t for her chance encounter with Briella Edwards today, she wouldn’t have known that the mastermind behind the anonymous photos sent that day was Edward. Now that she saw him, her brows raised and she felt agitated. She didn’t want to deal with these Clark’s people, who were just like the indestructible cockroachesbestos of Ursula Ferguson back in the day.
"Just say what you want." Carolline stood at a distance from him and stopped, not feeling good about this kind of person.
"I am Edward, Charlotte’s elder brother. We haven’t been able to reach Charlotte since this noon. Can you help us get in touch with her?" Since Charlotte left, she called her family every day, sometimes in the morning, sometimes at noon, and sometimes at night.
Edward’s words were relatively polite this time.
"They should have changed their phone numbers when they went over there. I don’t have her new phone number." Carolline said directly, frankly speaking, she didn’t have a good relationship with Charlotte, and since he was her elder brother, he should know that.
Moreover, after what he had done to her, she really didn’t understand why he wanted to find her when his sister was gone.
"But you guys are the leaders, right? Even if you don’t have her number, you can still get in touch with the headquarters, right?" Edward thought it was simple. Since he couldn’t reach Charlotte’s phone, there must be a reachable number, and as long as he could contact her, that’s all that mattered. He just wanted to make sure she was safe.
His parents were so worried at home that he could only shamelessly come to the hospital.
"Mr. Clark, my suggestion is that maybe Charlotte is too busy to return your calls on time. Of course, if you are really worried, you can go to the Dean Office and ask. I’m not a leader, so I’m sorry I can’t help you." Carolline flatly refused. She wasn’t the kind of person who could tolerate anyone unconditionally without principles.
Especially after Edward had done such a thing to her, of course, his plan didn’t succeed, but what would have happened if it had? She really didn’t know.
"..." Edward didn’t expect Carolline to have this kind of attitude. She said she wasn’t a leader, but wasn’t she the head nurse? Since she was the head nurse, shouldn’t she be Charlotte’s direct superior? "Wait a minute, aren’t you the head nurse? Aren’t the nurses under your supervision?"
"Yes, I am the head nurse, but my jurisdiction only covers the work of the current nurses. I can’t manage their private affairs. Besides, Charlotte is going out to support the local healthcare system, and those nurses are directly under the leaders’ management. I don’t have that ability, Mr. Clark." Carolline explained more clearly.
"..." Edward felt a little lost, but he finally understood.
"Oh, by the way, Ruth had a fever today and came to the hospital for an IV. As a father, maybe you should care about her a bit. I saw your wife here alone with her this morning." Carolline looked at Edward’s expression and suddenly mentioned Briella’s situation.
A man who is married with a wife shouldn’t forget his mother because of his wife, but he also shouldn’t neglect his own wife and children because of his family. Otherwise, how could a woman follow him wholeheartedly?
"Ruth has a fever?" Edward was surprised. Yesterday evening, when Briella took Ruth home, Ruth was fine. How did she suddenly get a fever? And he didn’t even know as a father.
"Yes, she had an IV in the outpatient clinic this morning." Carolline nodded, "I’m an outsider, so I won’t say much about your marital affairs, but I think your wife has a hard time."
"..." Edward didn’t expect Carolline to speak up for Briella. It seemed that Briella had said something to Carolline. How could she tell an outsider about their family’s affairs? "Thank you, I understand."
"You’re welcome. If you want to find a leader, take this elevator and go to the tenth floor." Carolline reminded him and then left directly.
After Carolline finished speaking, she left. Since Charlotte couldn’t be contacted, she was more worried about Gavin Campbell, so she went straight to Andy Aguirre’s office.
