Chapter 49 Jocelyn did not expect the man that she had rescued would turn out to be Zayn Claud. He had helped her prove that Lily White had faked her suicide attempt!
She smiled and nodded. She then reached out her hand to shake Zayn’s hand. “Nice to meet you, I’m Jocelyn White. You published a notice about my half-sister faking her suicide! I’ve always thought that you were a good man, Mr. Claud. I didn’t expect you to be so young!” Just then, she recalled what the group of men had said when they beat Zayn up. If she did not understand things wrongly, Zayn had gotten beaten up because of how he took the initiative to publish the notice. Jocelyn felt slightly guilty. They both let go of each other’s hands. Zayn had a shocked expression on his face. “It’s you!” The popular plagiarism incident was related to the fake suicide case in Claude Hospital. Of course, he knew about it!
Jocelyn smiled and nodded. “It’s me. I haven’t thanked you for your righteous act. Thanks to you, the netizens won’t be making a fool of me for life!”
Zayn smiled after hearing what she said. “It’s nothing much. This is my basic conscience as a doctor!”
The two instantly grew closer after getting to know each other.
Jocelyn looked at him and said, “Right, who were those men? Why did those men bring you to this alley?”
Zayn glanced at Jocelyn and laughed in exasperation. “Each and every doctor out there has experienced being hated on by their patients’ family. I wanted to purchase something at the market today. However, they threw a gunny sack over my head as soon as I entered the alley!” He laughed and glanced at Jocelyn, “Speaking of this, I need to thank you for rescuing me!” Jocelyn felt slightly embarrassed. “No way, you were the one who helped me online first, Mr. Claud. I should thank you first!”
Zayn seemed to be in a better mood now. “We’ve helped each other out. Right, why are you here?”
Jocelyn’s gaze flashed as she smiled and pointed to the supermarket next to them. “My friend was hospitalized. I came over to purchase some daily necessities for her!”
Zayn was slightly stunned. “What a coincidence. Come on, let’s go!” Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Claude Hospital.
Skyler came over to the hospital and watched as the doctors set the cast on Jim’s arm. Jim then got sent to a ward.
They stood by the door of the ward and chatted for a while. Skyler was about to leave when Jim held him back with his uninjured arm. “Can you send some food over during lunch? The dishes in the hospital taste terrible!”
Jim had only injured his arm, but he was still as haughty as ever. He did not forget to flirt even
in the hospital.
He flirted with the nurses that came by his ward and flashed them lustful gazes. Skyler pretended not to know him. “Ask someone else to do that! I’m very busy!” Jim dragged him in a clingy manner and said, “Don’t do that! I’ve been hospitalized!”
Skyler glanced at him speechlessly and said, “You just fractured your arm. You don’t need to be hospitalized!”
Jim frowned and said, “You don’t understand. There are plenty of girls in the hospital. Since I’m paying a visit to the hospital, how can I not grab the opportunity to stay here?!”
Skyler felt the overpowering urge to break his other arm as well. “You should visit the psychiatric department!”
As soon as Skyler finished speaking, his phone rang.
He then picked up his phone.
As soon as Jim let go of Skyler, he caught sight of a familiar figure in the distance.
He immediately recalled how Skyler had told him about his marriage with Jocelyn last night. He grabbed Skyler and waggled his brows at him. “Skyler, isn’t that your little designer?” Skyler was talking on the phone. He frowned and looked over when Jim interrupted him.
P
After that, he caught sight of Jocelyn and a young man holding bags full of items in their hands. They chatted happily as they walked over from the other end of the hospital corridor.
The doctors and nurses that passed by them nodded to greet them.
There was a downcast expression on Skyler’s face. He did not expect to see Jocelyn being so close with another man after half a day.
He was the one who had asked Jocelyn not to have ulterior motives toward him. However, Jocelyn kept having different men by her side.
Skyler could not resist feeling infuriated. Why did he not find out about this woman’s flirting abilities back then? Her abilities could rival that of Jim’s.
Jocelyn was looking at Zayn while they chatted. Zayn told Jocelyn that since her friend was staying at his hospital, it was only right for him to pay her friend a visit.
The two were chatting when Jocelyn felt someone’s gaze on her. She raised her head immediately and was faced with the sight of Jim smiling cheekily at her. Skyler was staring at her with an inexplicable
expression on his face.
Jocelyn was stunned. Why were they over here?
When her gaze landed on the cast on Jim’s arm, she finally understood what had happened. Oh, Jim had broken his arm.
Zayn noticed the change in Jocelyn’s gaze and asked her, “What’s wrong, Jocelyn White?”
Jocelyn returned to her senses and shook her head. “It’s nothing!”
Zayn turned to look in the direction of her gaze and caught sight of Skyler and Jim, who were standing by the door of the ward, immediately. His gaze flashed. “Are they your friends?”
Jocelyn pursed her lips. She did not know how to introduce Zayn to them. Was he a friend? Surely they were not friends yet, right?
However, they were just standing at the door of the ward next to Lexie’s ward. Jocelyn could not even ignore them. As soon as she walked over with Zayn, Jim chuckled and asked, “Miss White, why are you at the hospital? Did you come over to visit me after knowing that I injured myself?
After speaking, he cast a glance at Skyler, who was standing by the side.
Jocelyn pursed her lips and replied honestly, “My friend got hospitalized. I’m here to visit her!”
Skyler hung up on his call coldly and kept it. He looked at Jocelyn and spoke up in an oppressive tone, “Which friend is that?”
