“The doctor said that Margaret could be discharged according to her current recovery,” Murray said.
“That’s great.” I immediately got up. “Then I can go through the formalities.”
Murray looked at me and didn’t speak and seemed worried.
Then Margaret looked at him, “I’ve recovered. Murray, I’ve put you in trouble these days.”
Margaret was very polite.
We didn’t know each other for a long time, but her behavior showed that her living environment as a child had a good influence on her.
Compared with Inez, I was glad that my mother was Margaret!
She was polite and well-educated at first sight!
Although she didn’t accompany me in my childhood, I was still grateful that my mother could be her.
Murray seemed to hesitate when Margaret said that. He waved and said to me, “go through the discharge formalities.”
“OK!”
I nodded and went out.
Margaret was a special patient, so she was more difficult to discharge than other patients. I went to many places and it took me about an hour to finish the formalities.
I went through the formalities and went to the ward. As soon as I got to the corner of the corridor, I ran into a man.
The invoice and receipt in my hand fell to the ground!
“I’m sorry.”
I apologized and looked down and picked them up.
The man I hit is also kind. He squatted down and helped me pick them up.
He picked them up and sorted them out and gave them to me.
“Thank you.” I looked up when I thanked him.
Seeing him in front of me, I was stunned. I didn’t say anything more. I took them and left quickly!
He didn’t chase me.
My heart was still pounding when I got to the door of the ward.
How could this happen?
How could I meet Ming here?
Now I didn’t believe in any coincidence in anything related to Ming.
When I opened the door of the ward, Murray had already helped Margaret pack up.
Murray saw me go in and was unhappy. “Why are you so slow?”
Before I could say the reason, Margaret spoke for me, “it’s troublesome for a patient like me to leave the hospital.”
“Yes.”
I nodded and looked at Margaret and felt warm.
She just spoke for me, but I was warm.
That was what mom was like.
Murray listened to Margaret and didn’t argue with me, “let’s go. My reserved car is at the door. We have to get home before dark.”
He was referring to Sceaux.
I agreed, so we set out at once.
I was hostile to Ming now. I always felt like he was going to do something.
-
We took Murray’s reserved car and soon arrived at Sceaux.
As soon as Margaret got here, she looked nostalgic, “you still like to live in a house like this.”
“Don’t you like it? Then I’ll have another one rebuilt.”
Murray listened to Margaret and was nervous.
I had never seen Murray like this. He was stubborn and didn’t listen to anyone.
He occasionally swore, but now he listened to Margaret.
I looked at them and said nothing and just smiled.
