Chapter 626
Speak of the devil, and the doctor was suddenly walking towards them. Maurice was speaking to Wyatt when the doctor who treated Earle approached them.
Wyatt spotted him from afar. He recalled what was said to him moments ago, and his eyes lit up in anticipation.
“He’s here! Wait one moment. I promise you I’ll be able to help with this. Harriet won’t get another chance to do you a favor.”
“You’re a grown man. Why do you still act like a child?” Maurice rubbed his forehead helplessly.
Wyatt cleared his throat before walking to the doctor with a bright smile.
“Doctor Sampson, it’s been too long since I last saw you. How have you been?”
The doctor wore a white coat and a pair of gold-framed glasses. He was known to be an amiable middle-aged man. Based on his appearance alone, it was hard to decipher whether he was an expert in the medical field.
“Wyatt!” Doctor Eugene Sampson looked him over from head to toe in surprise. “What a coincidence! What brings you here?”
“I remember the last time we spoke was when I reached out to you to treat Mr. Earle Moran. I’ve been wondering since then why you accepted Miss Stone’s request first,” Wyatt said with a smile.
Doctor Sampson wasn’t offended by his words. He gave Wyatt a friendly smile and said, “What matters the most to me is saving lives. In the end, does it matter which request I accommodated first?”
Wyatt wanted to ask him more questions, but Maurice stopped him. Maurice was worried Wyatt would say something offensive.
“Thank you for your help with my grandpa. You saved his life, Doctor Sampson.”
Doctor Sampson waved his hand good-naturedly and said, “It’s my duty to save lives. There’s no need to thank me.”
“You don’t have to be so modest. You’re the only person we reached out to, who could help my grandpa.” Maurice was determined to express his gratitude.
“You don’t have to be so modest. You’re the only person we reached out to, who could help my grandpa.” Maurice was determined to express his gratitude.
Doctor Sampson hurriedly explained, “Wyatt’s mother introduced me to a patient years ago and Mr. Moran’s condition reminded me of hers. The situations were similar, so I figured out the appropriate surgical technique needed. I remember the surgery being quite expensive, and the subsequent maintenance costs were also high. If I hadn’t performed the same operation before, I wouldn’t have had the courage to do it again on Mr. Moran.”
When Doctor Sampson mentioned the past, curiosity gnawed at Wyatt.
“Do you remember who the patient was? That person even got my mother to ask you to treat her!”
“That’s confidential information, so I can’t say,” Doctor Sampson shook his head and refused.
Wyatt wasn’t keen on giving up his inquiries. “Please don’t keep me guessing. If the patient could afford to hire you, that means they’re wealthy, am I right? Celebrities also don’t have the luxury of privacy. Even if you refuse to tell me, I’ll find out eventually. All I need to do is ask around. Unless the patient wasn’t a celebrity.”
Doctor Sampson hesitated before he warned, “Wyatt, I hope you don’t do anything reckless.”
Wyatt made a casual guess, but the doctor’s hesitation confirmed his suspicions.
Was the patient not a celebrity?
If that person wasn’t a celebrity, then why did his mother help her?
The more he pondered, the more curious he became. Unfortunately, Doctor Sampson was firm about revealing patient’s information, so Wyatt had no choice but to follow the doctor into his office.
“Doctor Sampson, could you tell me? I want to know this friend of my mother’s. I’m afraid I won’t be able to sleep at night if you keep me wondering!”
Doctor Sampson was exhausted by his interrogation. He was about to drive Wyatt out of his office when someone knocked on his door.
Before the doctor could answer, the person pushed the door open and entered the room.
Doctor Sampson looked at her and came up with an idea.
“Wyatt, are you sure you want to know who that patient was? Since you’re curious about that person, maybe you could ask her family for yourself.”
He gestured for Wyatt to turn around.
Wyatt turned his head.
He came face to face with someone he never would’ve expected.
“Nicole?”
Both were stunned to run into each other.
Nicole didn’t expect to see Wyatt at the hospital. She couldn’t believe her terrible luck.
At that moment, she froze in shock.
“Miss Swift, you’re here!” Doctor Sampson waved her over with a smile. novelbin
“Doctor Sampson, I-”
Nicole lowered her head nervously and stopped herself. She couldn’t find the right words to say.
Her mother was discharged from the hospital soon after her surgery. Several times a year, she took her mother to the hospital for check-ups to prevent her illness from relapsing.
That day, she visited the hospital to ask about her mother’s physical examination. The last thing she expected was to run into Wyatt.
Wyatt still couldn’t get over the surprise of seeing Nicole. When he finally came to his senses, he recalled what the doctor had said. So he blurted out, “Nicole, who got sick?”
