Ivy, dressed in a blue and white patient gown, smiled and waved to Violet, "Miss Hunt, good evening."
"Good evening." Violet smiled back, and then asked, "Miss Ellis, is there anything else?"
"I heard from Henry that Dr. Joe had a car accident, so I came to have a look. It's so late. Did I bother you guys?" Ivy looked behind Violet.
"No, George hasn't woken up yet. Come in, Miss Ellis." Violet let go of the doorknob and gave the way to Ivy.
Ivy nodded, thanked her and went in.
Violet closed the door and followed behind her.
Ivy went straight to the bed, while Violet went to the drinking fountain in the corner to get the water.
After getting the water, Violet returned to Ivy and handed her the disposable cup, "Miss Ellis, drink some water."
"Thank you." Ivy quickly took it with a smile, but there was a flash of disgust in her eyes.
Violet didn't see it. So she just waved her hand, "You're welcome, Miss Ellis, please have a seat."
"Okay." Ivy replied, put the cup aside and sat down, obviously without the intention to drink.
Violet didn't think much, but thought Ivy was not thirsty.
"Miss Hunt, is Dr. Joe okay?" Ivy asked, looking at George who looked pale on the hospital bed and got infusion.
Violet said, "Nothing serious. He will recover in a month or two."
"It seems that Dr. Joe will not be able to continue to serve as my attending doctor in the future." Ivy sighed, showing a touch of loss on her sick and haggard face.
Violet also pulled a chair away and sat down, "Miss Ellis seems to really like George to be your attending doctor?"
"Almost. He has good medical skills. I had a splitting headache every day after I woke up. Since he performed the operation on me, my head hasn't hurt anymore. I can walk because of him. Besides, he is also a very good partner."
Ivy pulled the quilt for George.
Watching her movements, Violet frowned, "Partner? Miss Ellis, have you cooperated with George?"
"Yes." Ivy nodded.
Violet became more curious, and bit her lower lip, "What kind of cooperation?"
One of them was a doctor and the other was a patient.
Violet really couldn't imagine what they could cooperate.
Ivy’s eyes flashed, but her face was a little embarrassed, “I’m afraid I can’t tell you. This is my secret with Dr. Joe, but you will know it. Miss Hunt, you will be surprised at that time and you will see a different Dr. Joe."
"Oh?" Violet raised her eyebrows, feeling that there was other meaning in Ivy’s words, and there was a hint of weirdness in her tone.
Was it an illusion?
Violet bowed her head thoughtfully.
When Ivy saw Violet suddenly silent, she smirked. Then she moved her face closer to Violet, "What are you thinking about?"
Violet’s thoughts were interrupted. Ivy's face came into her eyes. Violet couldn't help but was startled. She trembled, and it took several seconds to recover. Then she replied with a grudging smile, "Nothing."
"Well, since you don’t want to say, just forget it. It's getting late, I should go back too. Otherwise, Henry will say something to me again when he sees I’m not in the ward." Ivy smiled and stood up with supporting the railing.
Violet also got up, "I will walk you out."
Ivy did not refuse.
Violet walked her to the door.
Ivy leaned on the wall and walked forward slowly.
Seeing her walking a few steps, Violet suddenly thought of something and called her to stop, "Miss Ellis."
Hearing it, Ivy turned to look at her, "Is there anything else?"
