“That’s great. Thank you, Ms. Smith.” Jacqueline clapped her hands happily.
Natalie leaned closer as she lowered her head and the former reached out to touch her eyes.
She ran her cold fingers around Natalie’s eyes. Her actions were gentle as if she were touching some kind of rare treasure, and she was reluctant to move her hand away.
“They really are beautiful. I really like your eyes. Ms. Smith, you have to take good care of them and not let anything happen to them, alright?” Jacqueline said gently.
However, for some reason, Natalie felt uncomfortable and couldn’t help but shudder upon hearing that.
But she did a great job of not showing it when she replied with a smile, “Of course. These are my eyes. And as a fashion designer, it’s only natural that I take good care of them.”
“Great.” Jacqueline seemed very satisfied with her answer and nodded.
Then, Natalie stood up and said, “Ms. Graham, since Stanley still isn’t here, I’m going to go to him. You should rest now. I won’t disturb you any further.”
I’m here to sound Jacqueline out anyway.
I didn’t get any information so there isn’t any reason for me to stay anymore.
Jacqueline didn’t try to stop her when she heard that Natalie was leaving. Instead, she said, “Okay. Goodbye, Ms. Smith.”
Natalie left after giving her a nod.
After she left, Jacqueline’s smile melted off her face and it was replaced by a cold look.
Then, she pulled open the drawer by her bed and took out a document file. The words ‘Corneal Damage’ were written on it and it stung her eyes.
Soon, she thought of something and a frightening smile appeared on her face as she glided her finger over the words.
After Natalie left Jacqueline’s ward, she made her way to the Neurology Department to meet Stanley.
I have to at least drop by to say hello otherwise it would be bad if Jacqueline asks Stanley if I came to see him.
“Hey, Stanley,” she said as she knocked on the door to his consultation room.
