Chapter 486 Sounds Familiar
Kenneth nodded.
Xavian answered the call and heard Natalie’s voice from the other end of the phone. “Have you finished school, Sweetheart?”
“Yup!” Xavian grabbed the corner of the table cloth and tested the waters. “Mommy, do you remember Clayton and I asked for a prescription for heart conditions? We actually gave the prescription to an old man. He has heart diseases, and his family members are not always by his side…”
“And?” Natalie smiled.
“Grandpa’s health has improved after taking the medication. We’re with him now, and he wishes to thank you over the phone.” Xavian did not know how Natalie would react to this, so he asked sheepishly, “Can I pass the phone to him?”
Xavian and Clayton might not have inherited Natalie’s medical skills, but the three of them all cared for others and wanted to do their part to help those who were in need.
“Of course,” Natalie said. “Pass the phone to him then.”
“Okay!”
Xavian responded with an innocent smile and handed the phone to Kenneth. “Here you go, Grandpa.”
Kenneth then placed the phone next to his ear. “Hi there. You’ve done a great job raising Xavian and Clayton. They’re such amazing children!” Kenneth continued to express his gratitude. “I would have been dead had they not performed CPR on me at the kindergarten in time.”
Natalie thought the elderly man’s coarse voice sounded familiar, but she could not quite put her finger on it.
“You’re welcome. They did what they’re supposed to do.” Natalie then remembered Kenneth was not exactly in the pink of health. “How are you feeling now?”
“I feel better after taking the medicines you prescribed. I am still in awe of your amazing medical skills and how excellent you are even though you’re still very young,” Kenneth said.
“That’s great. You should continue taking the medicines regularly. Keep yourself warm during the cold season, and avoid getting too emotional.”
“Thank you so much! I hope to meet you in the future!”
“Sure.”
Kenneth then returned the phone to Xavian and Clayton after ending the call.
From the way she spoke, Kenneth could tell Natalie was a steady and low-key person. Such characteristics were rather unusual for people her age.
