Dumping Him for His Uncle (Natasha and Zachary) novel Chapter 52

"Ms. Bradley, why don't you come upstairs with us and meet the patient? We need to confirm that there's no other issues," one of the staff members suggested.

Natasha thought that sounded fair, but Nicole quickly stepped in front of them before Natasha could say anything.

"There's no need. She's my sister, and I've already asked Ms. Spencer on her behalf."

Although the things Nicole said didn't completely add up, the staff members didn't press her further.

After all, people sometimes had reasons for keeping things private.

Natasha followed them out and signed the incident report. Only then did the paramedics finally leave the hospital.

Meanwhile, Nicole stayed behind in the lobby, glancing around shiftily, her gaze constantly darting toward Natasha.

The more Natasha watched, the more curious she became. Without a word, she turned and left the hospital.

Seeing her go, Nicole finally let out a sigh of relief.

But what she didn't realize was that Natasha had circled around and was now riding the hospital's external elevator up.

Earlier, she had spotted Molly's room number on the report.

She knocked lightly on the door, but no one answered. Pushing the door open cautiously, she finally saw for herself why Nicole had been so nervous.

"Are you a family member?" a nurse asked, walking in to change Molly's IV bag. She started rattling off a list of instructions. "Make sure the patient doesn't overwork herself. No matter how strong someone is, the body has its limits, you know?"

Just then, Molly stirred awake.

Her eyes snapped open, and when she saw Natasha, her face darkened.

"Who let you in? Get out!"

The force of her voice sent her into a coughing fit.

"You're not family. You can't just barge in here. Get out. You're disturbing the patient," the nurse scolded, finally looking up. But by then, Natasha was already gone.
