Ice and Fire novel Chapter 848

Inside XS Hospital

Standing in front of Kate's hospital bed, Greg said cordially, "Auntie, you rest here and if you have any concern then we are here to take care of it. Within no time you should be fit and fine and well on the path to recovery. If you have any doubt, call the nurses and they will help you solve it."

"Okay," Kate felt very gratified after seeing the concern in Greg's tone. "Thank you very much!"

"It's my pleasure!" Greg answered politely and gave her an encouraging smile, saying, "You should rest now and I will take your leave."

He quietly walked out of the room and closed the door gently. As soon as he lifted his head, he saw a beautiful and innocent girl approaching him. She was very thin and her hair was tied into a ponytail. Dressed in a simple T-shirt and jeans, she appeared plain yet pure.

"Hello, Is this a VIP room?" asked Aria, her eyes widened with surprise.

"Yes. And may I know who you are?" Greg asked. It was obvious that the girl had no idea about his identity and thought that he was just another doctor on duty that day.

"I am Aria, daughter of the patient," Aria replied politely. 'Since this man has come out of my mother's ward and he is also wearing a white gown, he must be her doctor-in-charge, ' thought Aria.

Greg immediately understood after she introduced herself. With a faint smile, he greeted, "Hello, Aria! You must be Lawrence's friend, aren't you? I am Greg! Lawrence had asked me to arrange this VIP room for your mother."

"Wait. Are you...Greg Xiao?" Aria's?hand flew to?her mouth in shock and disbelief. Her eyes were reflecting the confusion she was going through. Wasn't Greg the owner of XS Hospital? It seemed that Lawrence was quite a well-to-do man if he could ask the president of the most prestigious hospital to take care of her mother.

"Yes, it's me!" Greg replied. The girl standing in front of him reminded him of Violet in more than one ways. Both of them had the same kind of temperament, that is, they were both pure and simple.

Aria suddenly started feeling a little embarrassed as she had not expected that her mother would receive such special treatment. Feeling nervous, she fiddled through her hair with her right hand and in a soft voice said, "Well, thank you so much! I am sorry that we caused such a bother for you."

"It's no problem at all! Lawrence had already told me about it. Just feel assured and your mother will get recovered soon. I will check on her from time to time to see how her treatment is progressing," said Greg.

"Thank you!" Aria hastily expressed her thanks and then asked, "What about the treatment costs? Would I have to arrange for that?"

Aria tried to calculate in her mind. This was the best hospital in the city and her mother was living in the VIP room which meant that the fees would certainly be high something which she couldn't afford.

Greg read her mind and suddenly laughed out, "Don't you worry about the fees. I will take care of that, you just take care of your mom. I am sure she must be expecting you!"

"Oh, thank you!" It seemed that Aria had no words to say except thanks.

"Okay, I am leaving now and you can go inside and see your mother," Greg said and gave her a nod and then left from there.

Watching him go away in?the distance, Aria let out a sigh of relief and her happiness was quite evident. She took out her phone and texted a message," Lawrence, thank you so much!" and clicked "send".

The moment she pushed the door open and walked into the ward, she heard that she had received a text message and she saw that it was from Lawrence.

"Show me that you are really sincere if you want to thank me in any way! Remember, 9:00 pm. tonight!"
