Worship The Ground You Walk On
Chapter 16: She has Me
Hardly had Ben left than Kim rushed into the ward with food.
"Claudia, honey, I brought you chicken soup. Do you want some?" Kim shook the meal box in her hands and asked with a bright smile.
Claudia couldn’t help but chuckle at the sight of Claudia, nodding vigorously.
Kim set up a bed table and put the chicken soup and pretzel on it. When she was sitting aside peeling a boiled egg, Claudia said in sign language, "Thank you!"
Claudia knew very well that without Kim, Ben wouldn’t have entered the delivery room.
In that case, she would have been lying in the morgue now.
Kim patted Claudia on the shoulder and smiled. "You don't have to be so courteous. We’re besties, and that’s what I should do."
Claudia nodded to show gratitude.
“Hey, come on.” Kim said bashfully and added, “By the way, I just saw the baby in the incubator. He’s so cute and he takes after you.”
Surprised, Claudia beamed with pleasure.
"He’s so lucky to have both of his parents’ good genes! Ben is so handsome, and you’re so pretty, and that’s why your son is so good-looking!"
Kim made up her mind and muttered to herself, "I’ll get myself a handsome husband in the future too! For my kid’s sake!"
Claudia gave a bitter smile, urging Kim to eat with her.
Director Gerren’s office door was pushed open by Marshall. When he got in, he locked the door behind him.
Stunned, Gerren asked, "Hey, what brought you here, Mr. Cooper? You wanna share some dark secrets with me?"
“You think?!” Marshall said furiously when he tossed the copies of all of Claudia’s pregnancy check-up reports on the desk.
Gerren cast a look at them and looked away instantly. Apparently, she felt guilty, "What?"
“When Claudia was giving birth to her baby, you said it yourself that the baby was in a transverse position and it was a difficult labor, but why none of the reports indicate so?” Marshall questioned.
Gerren frowned, "Well, things change, and sometimes there's not enough time to write everything down..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Marshall chimed in, "Oh come on, we’re both doctors. Stop fooling me like I’m one of your patients!"
Now that Marshall got it all out in the open, Gerren could no longer cover up the truth.
