Stay Around You Now And Forever

Joseph went to the hospital early in the morning.

He did not expect to see a familiar face at the entrance of the laboratory when he sent the samples in for testing.

It was Wendy.

“Cousin, why are you here so early?”

Wendy smiled elegantly and calmly.

Joseph narrowed his eyes, unable to see through her thoughts at this moment.

“I feel unwell, so I came for a check-up,” he said indifferently, but the smile that he usually had on his face disappeared.

Wendy maintained her grace. “Cousin, probably you’re not the one to be checked, right?”

“Wendy, what do you want to say?” Both of them were busy, so a wild guess was unnecessary.

What surprised him was being followed by Wendy. He was unaware of that.

“Cousin, don’t doubt your alertness. I didn’t follow you here.”

Wendy saw through him at a glance. “I was just guessing that you would be here.”

“What exactly do you want to say?” His patience was wearing thin.

“Cousin, you’ve always treated me most nicely and held me dear. Why are you so rude to me when Emily is around?”

Wendy was relaxed. Anyway, he had to wait here for the report. In fact, it was useless for him to be anxious.

“Your DNA test will probably take four hours.”

She blurted out the words ‘DNA test’. There was no need to hide it anymore.

Joseph’s expression darkened.

“Cousin, there’s a coffee shop downstairs. Why don’t we chat and wait?” Wendy smiled happily.

“I have to stay here.” Just in case, her people would sabotage it.

“Cousin, you’re being over cautious. How are we going to get along in the future?”
