Chapter 784 A Comprehensive Examination
Even though the physicians did not spot any obvious injuries on Natalie, they decided to do as Samuel said anyway in fear of the man.
The leading middle-aged doctor gulped before responding cautiously, “Let’s… Let’s do a comprehensive examination. You don’t have to change out of the hospital gown just yet.”
Hence, Natalie had no choice but to cooperate with the doctors.
As expected, no health problems were found with Natalie, who thought all the hassle was unnecessary. As for the physicians, they were over the moon when they confirmed that Natalie was not carrying any incurable diseases.
“About the gown…” voiced Natalie again hesitantly.
“You may go take a shower first, and I’ll have a nurse leave you a fresh gown just outside the bathroom.”
“Okay,” responded Natalie with a nod before making her way to the bathroom.
It was not until she saw her reflection in the mirror that she realized how much blood she was covered in. It’s no wonder Samuel was so worried. Not only do I have blood on my clothes, but I also have it all over my face and hair. I look like someone who just crawled out of a pool of blood!
Still, Natalie’s gruesome appearance was not enough to detract her from her thoughts.
Her heart ached when she recalled how Yvonne talked about her mother.
“You think Jennie’s someone special? Let me tell you. She’s nothing but a skank and a homewrecker! I grew up with Thomas. We went almost everywhere together and were planning to get married after our graduation. You think Jennie didn’t know that he was a scumbag? She only let you take the man’s last name because she didn’t want you to be disappointed in her.”
Is that the truth? Natalie’s hand trembled as she unbuttoned her clothes. Then, she stood under the shower head and let the water wash away all the blood on her.
Not only did she have Thomas’ blood but also Yvonne’s. For some reason, the smell of the clotted-up blood made Natalie sick, so she applied plenty of shower gel onto her body in an attempt to rid herself of the pungent smell.
It was only after Natalie had washed herself clean that she began to feel the pain, so she immediately turned off the shower head and exited the bathroom to change into another hospital gown.
Even though Natalie just had a hot shower, her limbs still felt icy-cold, somehow.
Outside the ward, the leading specialist handed a thick stack of reports to Samuel.
“So you’re telling me that she’s fine?” questioned Samuel sternly as he went through the reports.
In the face of Samuel’s intense aura, the physician beaded with cold sweats when he responded to his inquirer with extreme caution, “Yes.”
Samuel then continued to flip through the stack of papers in silence until he had read everything on them. “Good job. You may leave now.”
Hearing that, the specialist finally breathed a sigh of relief. “Very well, Sir.”
After returning the reports to the doctor, Samuel got on his feet and headed for Natalie’s room.
When Samuel opened the door, he saw Natalie wrap her arms around herself while staring blankly out the window.
“Are you mad at me?” asked Samuel with a slight frown before approaching Natalie. “You can’t blame me for being too careful. After all, I’m only this paranoid because you always told me that you were fine when you weren’t. How do you expect me to trust you this time?”
“It’s not that,” replied Natalie while shaking her head. “I don’t blame you at all. Had you not gotten to me in time, I would’ve been disfigured. Though, I’d probably still survive.”
Natalie knew she had to be careful of Thomas, but she never expected Yvonne to appear.
When Natalie suddenly thought of her mother again, she quickly turned to look at Samuel. “Where’s Billy? I need Thomas’ blood now! The sooner the better.”
