Chapter 98: Checked Out By The Doctor
Chapter 98: Checked Out By The Doctor
While Zac drove, Patricia kept asking him what his words meant.
Suddenly, she saw that he had stopped in front of the hospital.
Eyes wide open in confusion, Patricia looked at Zac suspiciously.
"You are badly injured, Patricia.Of course, you need to be checked out by a doctor!"
Zac said in an authoritative tone, leaving no room for argument.
Shaking her head, Patricia firmly said, "It's only a bruise.I don't need to see a doctor for this type of injury."
Zac realized she didn't want to go to the hospital.
Upon hearing this, Zac frowned and squinted his eyes at her, a trace of anger on his face.
‘What is wrong with this woman? Patricia is badly injured, but she refuses to see the doctor.Why is she torturing herself?’ Sometimes, Zac really felt like he couldn't understand what she was thinking.
"When I go back home, I will apply some ointments," Patricia said offhandedly as she looked away from Zac's probing eyes.
Zac angrily glared at her and helplessly took a deep breath to calm himself.
Although he couldn't see how badly she was hurt, he could only guess that it wasn't simply a light bruising.
Her face was too pale to deceive his sharp eyes.
‘Patricia said that she would go back and apply some ointments.Is she a doctor? How can she know which medicines to use to treat her injury? This woman is really troublesome!’ Unable to control his anger, Zac pulled her out of the passenger seat without saying anything.
Then bending over, he picked her up in his long arms and carried her into the hospital.
He didn't care what she had to say about this.
He was set on having her checked out by a doctor.
Patricia shrieked when he did this.
Noticing the strange gazes boring into her from those nearby, she subconsciously leaned closer to Zac's neck and whispered, "Zac, let go of me.
This is the hospital, isn't it? "Shut up!"
Zac said coldly as an overbearing aura emanated from him.He wouldn't allow her to have a say in this matter anymore.
Seeing Zac's resolute expression, Patricia wisely shut up, not daring to say anything further.
Feeling the penetrating gazes of the people around, she buried herself in Zac's chest as she tried to avoid being seen.
Seeing her shrink away from other people like this made Zac furious.He glared at her and bit his thin lips.
‘Am I such a monster? Why does this woman dislike being seen with me so much?’ Taking a deep breath, Zac realized he would never understand what was going on inside her mind.
‘Women would be lining up anxiously waiting to get closer to me, but they never have their dreams realized.But Patricia acted as though she didn't care to be with me!’ Zac's self-esteem was hurt by this fact.
‘However, while she is injured and her face pale, I will forgive her this time.I will settle the score with her when she recovers.Furthermore, Patricia is now lying quietly in my arms as if silently relying on me.’ He had never experienced this with her before.
Realizing this, Zac's mood slightly improved.
A faint smile touched his lips.
When they arrived at the outpatient department, the young doctor on duty couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the young woman nestled in Zac's arms.
Curiously, the doctor gave her the once-over and was stunned to realize that this was the eldest daughter of the Sampson family.
‘I heard that she's currently dating another wealthy man.And she had filed for divorce.So, why is she with Zac right now? What's with this ex-husband and ex-wife combo?’ Remembering scenes from dramas he had seen, the young doctor tried to figure out what had led to this turn of events between them.
Noticing the doctor's strange gaze, Zac glared at him and said coldly, "If you want to keep your job, then you'd better look the other way."
Zac was solemn and domineering, making the young doctor tremble in fear.
He immediately withdrew his gaze from Patricia, fearing that he would lose his job if he continued looking at her.
Zac was the primary sponsor of this hospital, so even the hospital director was polite to Zac.Thus, this young doctor dared not offend Zac.
"Mr.Reynolds, can you tell me what is wrong with the young lady?" the young doctor said in a friendly tone. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
He glanced at Patricia from the corner of his eyes, looking for any visible damage.
"This is Mrs.Reynolds! Do address her correctly." Zac frowned as he glared at the doctor with dissatisfaction.
‘Are they all blind? How can they not know that Patricia is my wife?’
"Yes, of course, it's Mrs.Reynolds."
The young doctor broke out into a cold sweat as he thought of how difficult it was to deal with Zac.
To his knowledge, Zac and Patricia were divorced, so why...
Glaring at the young doctor with annoyance in his eyes, Zac asked, "Aren't there any female doctors on duty tonight?"
Embarrassed by this question, the young doctor lowered his head, not knowing how to answer Zac.
"Well...Umm..."
The young doctor was reluctant to answer, delaying his reply to Zac's question.Seeing the doctor like this infuriated Zac.
Staring furiously at the doctor, Zac roared, "Answer me! Do you have a female doctor? Yes or no!"
This doctor's lack of response made Zac want to tear the whole hospital down to see if there was a female doctor on call himself.
"Yes, we have one.But most of the doctors in our department are male,"the young doctor stated after plucking up some courage.
He glanced at Zac as he said this and unconsciously took a step back.
Already burning with rage, Zac snapped at the man and said, "Then find me a female doctor this instance!"
‘How can I let another man check my wife's body?’
Overhearing Zac and the young doctor's conversation, Patricia looked up at Zac and whispered, "Zac, don't make things difficult for the doctor.They..."
Zac wordlessly stared at her.
He could feel his anger welling up inside of himself.
"You..." Seeing him like this, Patricia looked at Zac in confusion.
‘'I don't understand why Zac is suddenly so hot-tempered over such a trivial matter.Why is he behaving like this?’ "Did I say something wrong?"
Patricia looked innocently up at Zac, making him feel as if he was the one who had done something wrong.
Seeing this look in her eyes, Zac couldn't help but feel glum.
He suddenly wished he could toss her aside so she would be out of his sight.
‘This woman's brain is definitely different from that of ordinary people.How can she feel comfortable having another man look at and touch her body?’ Thinking this caused blue veins to appear at the back of his hands.
A hint of displeasure flashed through his deep eyes, and he exhaled heavily.
Seeing Zac's expression, Patricia pursed her lips and said indifferently, "It's no use losing your temper now, Zac."
Zac felt that he was about to cough up a mouthful of blood.
‘I wonder if Patricia is talking back to me on purpose? And why does she always contradict everything I say?’ The young doctor, who hadn't left yet to fulfill Zac's request, breathed a sigh of relief when Zac's attention shifted back to Patricia.
He was, however, confused.
‘It is said that the second young master of the Reynolds family and the eldest daughter of the Sampson family are not on good terms with each other.
Furthermore, they are supposed to be divorced.
So, was that rumor still valid?’ Somehow, when the young doctor saw their bickering, he thought they looked like a happily married couple.
He didn't know if the reports on Zac and Patricia were true anymore because the way these two interacted gave the impression of a happy couple.
