The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 437

Chapter 437 A Vegetable

Billy did not expect Scarlett to ask him that, so he was a little stunned. That said, he recovered instantly. “Coincidentally, Scarlett’s here in this hospital. She was previously admitted into a small hospital at the outskirt of the city. But because the hospital wasn’t well equipped, the Hamilton family decided to transfer her here out of sympathy.”

At that moment, Samuel understood the hesitation in Natalie’s eyes. But unlike her, Samuel felt no sympathy for Scarlett.

Natalie would have been frozen to death if she did not see through Scarlett’s plan.

So, to him, Scarlett deserved to die.

At the same time, Natalie quickly finished her food and picked up the plates. “Being stuck in this room is a drag, Samuel. I’ll head out to wash these. Be right back.”

“Okay.”

Samuel nodded with a reluctant grin that quickly dissipated.

“Mr. Bowers, Ms. Nichols…” Billy also noticed Natalie’s odd behavior.

“Just follow her. See what’s going on. Don’t let her see you,” Samuel ordered with a finger over his lips. “If anyone mistreats her, let her handle it on her own. Step in if it doesn’t seem like she could fend herself.”

Billy nodded. “Yes, sir.”

After Natalie came out of the ward, she left the plates on a window sill and hurried to the information counter on the first floor.

“Excuse me, can I know which floor the patient, Scarlett Hamilton, is being treated on? I’m her friend. I heard she got into an accident, and I’m very worried about her current wellbeing.”

The nurse saw Natalie’s worried gaze and did not doubt her. “That patient is… currently on the ninth floor undergoing emergency brain surgery in the operation theater,” the nurse said after checking the records on her computer.

“Thank you.”

Natalie immediately took the elevator all the way to the ninth floor.

She was in her hospital gown and had her hair over her face.
