The little guy cried and did not speak. The caregiver standing outside the taxi bowed and spoke first, "I'm sorry, Miss Hunt, it's all my fault. It's the zipper on my clothes that got Calvin's hair in." "
"Hair?" Violet touched the top of Calvin's head and turned to look. Sure enough, she saw a few short hairs hanging on the zipper of the caregiver's clothes.
The caregiver apologized again, "I'm really sorry, Miss Hunt. I didn't mean it. I..."
"Forget it!" Violet interrupted her, "I believe you didn't mean it."
The zipper was dense with teeth, let alone hair, some small fluff was easy to twist in.
It seemed that this was indeed an accident.
The caregiver was overjoyed and folded her hands together, "Thank you, Miss Hunt."
"It's okay. You can go back. We should leave." Violet patted the little guy on the shoulder and motioned for him to sit in.
The little guy moved his butt and sat on the other side.
Violet went to close the trunk, then got into the car and told the address to the driver.
As the taxi went away, the caregiver raised her hand to wiped the sweat from her forehead, then lowered her head and carefully removed the hair from the zipper. After that, she took out a small sealed bag from her pocket and opened it, putting the hair in.
After doing this, a man dressed like a bodyguard drove to her.
The car window was rolled down. The bodyguard turned his head with wearing sunglasses and asked, "Where is the hair?"
"Here." The caregiver passed the sealed bag.
The bodyguard reached out to take it. A sharp glow flashed in his eyes behind the sunglasses, and then he rolled down the window and left.
Half an hour later, the bodyguard came to Henry's hospital.
Henry had already been waiting in the consulting room. Apart from him, Stanley and Ivy were also there.
"Hair!" Seeing the bodyguard come in, Henry got up directly.
The bodyguard glanced at Stanley, nodded at Stanley, and passed the hair over.
Henry held the hair and looked at it. Then he walked quickly to the storage cabinet, and took out Stanley's blood sample.
"Okay, I can't accompany you guys. I'll do the appraisal." Henry pushed his glasses and walked out of the consulting room.
Ivy looked at his back, smiling faintly, but she quickly returned to nature, as if what happened just now was just an illusion.
"Stanley, who is Henry going to do a paternity test for?" Ivy sat next to Stanley, put her hand on Stanley's arm, rubbed the place where his blood was drawn with her thumb and asked with a soft voice.
"I don't know." Stanley moved her hand away and stood up, looking down to adjust his sleeves. Then he said faintly, "You will be discharged from the hospital soon. What gift do you want?"
Knowing that Stanley didn’t want to answer, Ivy’s eyes were cold, but she still smiled, “I want a piano. You know when I didn’t have a car accident ten years ago, I won the international youth piano championship. I want to practice piano again."
"Okay." Stanley nodded, "I will let Fraser go abroad to buy a piano for you."
"Thank you." Ivy was overjoyed, got up and hugged him from behind, put her face on his back, closed her eyes, and showed deep attachment on her face.
Stanley didn't expect that she would suddenly hug him. He was slightly stiff and a little uncomfortable, but he didn't push her away.
It wasn't until a few minutes later that Ivy took the initiative to let him go, then Stanley relaxed.
At this time, a knock on the door sounded.
Stanley and Ivy both looked at the door.
The nurse stood outside the door with holding a medical record folder and smiled at the two of them, "Mr. Murphy, it's time for Miss Ellis' examination."
"Okay." Stanley nodded to Ivy.
Ivy was a little reluctant, and took his arm, "Stanley, I don't want to check. Those checks are too painful for me."
"I know! But it's all for your own good. Just hold on. Be a good girl!" Stanley raised his hand and helped her straighten her wig.
