Chapter 370
After chatting for a while, Jaxson put down his drink and picked up his phone to answer a call in the hallway.
“Mr. Hamilton, Mrs. Hamilton, she… not at Portland Hospital.”
He stood by the French window, his handsome face hidden in the neon lights, unable to distinguish his expression,“Are you sure?”
“Confirmed, Portland Hospital did receive Mrs. Hamilton’s application before, but it was withdrawn half a month ago,” Cynthia said, adding, “The hospital staff even thought Mrs. Hamilton chose to stay at her original unit.”
Jaxson stayed silent for a while, Then let’s go to each hospital one by one.”
“What if no one is there?”
He took out a pack of cigarettes, knocked one out and put it in his mouth,“Go on.”
Hung up the phone, Jaxson flicked the metal lighter and lit a cigarette. The white smoke momentarily blurred the night view outside the window as he gazed into the distance, lost in thought.
The next day, Charlotte saw a patient with meningitis at the new hospital. Since the medication couldn’t control the abscess growth, surgery was quickly scheduled for drainage.
Two hours later, Charlotte walked out of the operating room and informed the family members about the surgery.
Wallace and Nigel were just near the operating room, with the former jokingly saying, “Looks like our department finally has a young and beautiful chief
surgeon, huh?”
We didn’t deny either.
Nigel looked at Charlotte, didn’t answer,
Wallace was surprised, “You didn’t argue with me?”
Nigel rarely admits to complimenting girls!
He looked away and said casually, “Young and beautiful, I guess.”
Nigel didn’t stop, he just turned and left, leaving Wallace standing there in surprise.
Charlotte changed out of her surgical gown, and as soon as she stepped out, she received a WhatsApp invitation and even sent an emoji pack.

She suddenly remembered the words she heard in Nigel’s office that day,“Just ordinary alumni.”
“Not necessarily.”
“What’s my relationship with him, is Prof. Kendall very interested?”
He paused, shook his head, “Not interested, but he’s my brother, just asking.” After a few seconds, he added, “Just curious, the leaving, was it with him?”

Charlotte suddenly laughed, “Oh, you got it all wrong, it really isn’t.”
Nigel nodded, didn’t say anything, and then left.
Charlotte watched his back in confusion, not sure what he was thinking.
She worked the afternoon shift at three o’clock, had to go back for a break at noon, just stepped out of the elevator, and suddenly figures.
