Feel the Way You Feel, My Love

Chapter 153

Without thinking much, Natalie gave in to her urge and took off to see her. After asking about Jacqueline’s room number, she then proceeded to the wards under the Neurology Department.

The door was ajar when she reached Jacqueline’s room, so Natalie could see everything inside.

Stanley was in his lab coat as he checked the girl’s head with a medical torchlight.

The girl had her head lowered, so Natalie couldn’t see her face at all. She could only see the surgery scars that crawled across her bald head like a group of centipedes, which made her hair stand on its ends.

If it was someone else with a weak heart, they would’ve probably screamed at the gross sight.

Although Natalie was low-key frightened as well, she managed to cover her mouth before a scream escaped from her lips. She didn’t want to jump scare the people inside the room now.

A while later, Stanley was finally done with his checkup. He switched off the torchlight and turned around to see Natalie waiting outside of the room. A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes before striding over to Natalie with a smile. “What brings you here, Nat?”

“I’m here to see you,” Natalie replied with a smile.

She didn’t want to tell him about her injury. Otherwise, he would be pestering her with questions and get worried about her.

“Wow, really? That’s so kind of you. But I still need a while, though. Maybe you have to wait for me at my office.” Stanley gestured to the back as he spoke.

Natalie was about to say she would wait for him in the room when a weak voice of a girl sounded behind Stanley. “Dr. Quinn, is it your friend?”

Stanley replied, “Yes.”

“Oh, ok. If she doesn’t mind, do ask her to take a seat here,” the girl replied in a soft voice.

Natalie’s eyes lit up at the invitation and replied, “Of course I won’t mind!”

She was here to see Jacqueline in person anyway.

Now that Jacqueline had asked her to stay, of course, she would not reject the offer.

Stanley could guess what she was thinking from her happy look. His warm smile suddenly vanished from his face, and his gaze turned icy behind his glasses.

However, Natalie did not notice his change in mood and overtook him to enter the room.

This time, she finally had a good look at Jacqueline’s features.

She was blessed with nice facial features and a perfect face shape. One could see she was once a gorgeous woman before falling sick.

But now, her skin was sallow and her eyes were sunken due to her illness. She looked so skinny that her cheekbones were protruding. Even with her wig on, it wouldn’t do much to conceal her sickly figure. Despite her haggard appearance, though, she exuded an uncanny mien of grace and elegance.

“Nice to meet you, Ms. Graham. My name’s Natalie Smith, and I’m Stanley’s friend.” Natalie stopped herself from staring at her and extended her hand to Jacqueline.

Jacqueline lifted her skinny hand and shook Natalie’s hand weakly.

The stark contrast between her ugly and sallow hand with Natalie’s fair and beautiful ones made Jacqueline lowered her eyes in jealousy. But the hint of jealousy went off as fast as it came and no one noticed it.

“Hello, Ms. Smith. Do you know me?” Jacqueline retracted her hand and asked with a smile.

Natalie gestured at Stanley with her lips. “He told me about you before.”

“Oh, ok. My pleasure then. Please have a seat, Ms. Smith.” Jacqueline gestured to the chair beside her bed.

Natalie thanked her and sat down beside her as she observed Stanley carrying out the next treatment on Jacqueline.

The treatment process seemed to be a torturous one. The pain was written all over Jacqueline’s face before she let out a horrible scream and fainted.

Natalie stood up at the sight. “Is she fine, Stanley?”

Stanley started removing his gloves without sparing a glance at Jacqueline. “Nah, it’s normal. She’s fine.”

“Oh, glad to hear that.” Natalie let out a sigh of relief.

“Alright, let’s go. It’s the nurse’s job now.” Stanley turned to her and gestured. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Natalie hummed in agreement and left Jacqueline’s room.

On their way back to Stanley’s consultation room, Natalie inquired curiously, “Hey, when will Ms. Graham recover from her illness?”
