Sweet Twins

"Humph! It's no big deal. It was just a glass bead. You acted as if you have done something exceptional." Fannie's lips curled contemptuously.

"How could you just say that?" Ethan said angrily.

Fannie whined and followed the nurse along with Caspar.

"Ethan, you are a doctor with years of experience. You should be more patient." Nancy shrugged and smiled.

Hobart sighed, "Nowadays the doctor-patient relationship is tense. We doctors always have to be on our toes for fear of offending the families of the patients. Alas, no one knows what to do about it!"

"Yes, that's true." Nancy nodded.

They chatted and visited around for some time. Then Hobart had lunch with Nancy in the dining hall of the hospital.

Ethan spent most of the afternoon with her.

"I remember that the Ning family has their own hospital and company. So why did Fannie take her child to the municipal hospital?"

Since Nancy didn't get any help for treating her mother from Clark five years ago, she never called him afterwards and knew nothing about the present situation of the family.

"Both the hospital and the company are working fine. I guess since they live closer to here, it's easily accessible for them." Ethan knew that Nancy had a bad relationship with her family, so he used his words carefully. "Your father suffered from a stroke a few days ago, and the company is run by Fannie and Caspar now. Besides, I heard that Fannie had acquired all the shares of your father while he was seriously ill…"

Nancy smiled bitterly. "What does that have to do with me?"

"I think you should hold on to your mother's shares, in case they get their eyes on them," Ethan warned her.

"I have never thought about fighting in the court for these things. If they have a little conscience, they shouldn't bother my mother."

"It's always hard to say. Be careful," Ethan continued.

"Thank you."

"Don't say that. It's been years since we met. Will you join me for a movie tonight?" Ethan looked at her with hands in his pockets.

The expectant look in his eyes made Nancy feel a little uneasy.
