Moore couldn't say no to that point. He took a glance at his hospital clothes and helplessly told Jean,"There's no need for that. We can eat at a restaurant nearby. But..." He paused,"What would people say if they saw me hanging around in a hospital uniform. They would mistake me for a mental patient roaming free."
Jean burst into laughter on his words and glanced at his clothes. "You've got a point. Hey Moore, hold on a second. I'll be right back..."
And she hurriedly ran out.
"Jean..." Moore stared at her receding back as she left. He was dumbfounded.
Jean was looking for the top recommendations. Why had she ran out?
Jean felt a pang of guilt on hearing Moore say that he didn't have any other clothes.
Though he had been in the hospital for a long time now, she hadn't really done much to care for him.
Moore hadn't left the hospital since he had been admitted and
she had forgotten to buy any clothes for him.
His mention of clothes had reminded her that she had stored some cash in her old room, so she hurriedly pushed in, but
was completely taken aback when she entered inside.
There was someone else in the room. It had been only two days since she had left, and she hadn't even checked out.
Seeing her burst in, the patient in the room looked at her in surprise.
"Sorry, I want to go to the bathroom badly. Can I use the bathroom, please?" Jean asked in embarrassment.
The patient nodded and pointed in the direction of the bathroom.
Jean gave him a quick smile in gratitude and quickly ran to the bathroom.
Closing the door carefully behind her, Jean stood on tiptoe and held her hand forward.
As soon as her fingers felt the envelope, she immediately felt relieved.
She took it down, checked the amount of money inside and hurriedly hid it.
She deliberately washed her hands before she left.
"Thanks!" As she was leaving the room, she thanked the patient once again.
Going back to Moore's room, she saw that his infusion had already been completed and he was resting now.
Hearing her come in, he opened his eyes. "Where did you go just now in such a hurry?" he asked in puzzlement.
"Take it." Jean handed him the envelope with the money inside. "There's money inside. You should buy some clothes. You can't keep on wearing these sickly clothes."
Moore looked at the envelope in her hand with a complicated expression. He furrowed his brows and asked,"Did you run away to withdraw the money?"
A mixed feeling overtook him.
"I didn't withdraw the money. I got it back." Jean looked at him and explained,"Zed gave me this envelope earlier when I was here, and I hid it in my old room. I got it back just now."
"You hid the money?" Moore's expression got even more complicated. He gazed at her for a long time without saying anything.
