Lunchtime, in the hospital canteen.
When Christine went to get food, she could clearly feel that others were rejecting her. Even the cook looked at her with disdain.
“That’s Nancy. Have you heard? She was making love with Mr. Reeves in the treatment room just now, and Dr. Foster saw them”
“That’s so explosive. I heard that she accepted Dr. Foster’s flowers some time ago. This woman’s ambition is really big. She actually wants to hook up with Mr. Reeves even though she has Dr. Foster.”
“This isn’t called having a big ambition. This is called being smart. She knows that she can’t put all the eggs in one basket. Although she has hooked up with them, she doesn’t know whether she can marry one of them in the end. Who knows if the men are serious? So it’s safer to hook up both of them at the same time.”
“I know. But with her looks, she actually wants to hook up with two handsome heirs at the same time? Look at her standard old–fashioned hairstyle and black–framed glasses. No young women nowadays want to wear black–framed glasses. It’s so funny. And about her skin, those who don’t know better would think that she came from Idos. She actually dares to seduce men with her ugly looks. What a joke.
Originally, there was only a few female medical staff led by Chloe who was hostile to Christine. Now, in the canteen, Christine suddenly realized that everyone in the hospital, including the cooks and cleaners, seemed to be hostile to her.
Just now, Duncan caught Christine engaging in a flirtatious interaction with Randall inside the treatment room. She could. imagine that her heroic act of playing both sides had spread throughout the entire Healthstone Hospital. Furthermore, she felt that the story must have been heavily edited and distorted.
And the culprit must be Chloe.
After all, at this moment, Chloe was looking at Christine smugly with her henchwomen as if she was showing off her results.
Christine had to do a checkup on Elizabeth in the afternoon and check on Daniel’s condition. She took the time from her busy schedule to have a meal.
Christine didn’t want to waste what little time she had to eat on Chloe.
Christine carried her plate and walked past Chloe.
Chloe said sarcastically at the top of her voice, “Someone has already hooked up with Dr. Foster and Mr. Reeves. They’re both heirs of top tycoons. Why is she still eating in the canteen like us ordinary people? Isn’t that too degrading?”
“Yeah, the canteen food is only suitable for us ordinary people. Someone has attached herself to top–tier tycoons, yet she still eats… work meals like us.”
When that person said the words “work meals“, she sounded especially mean.
Christine turned a deaf ear to the sarcasm, but everyone in the canteen heard Chloe’s sarcasm to Christine.
Under the publicity of Chloe, the people in the canteen were a little disgusted with the name Nancy. In addition, Chloe was Schuman’s niece. Usually, in the hospital, Chloe was always arrogant and domineering. They would rather stay away from the people Chloe hated.
So when Christine sat down at one of the tables to eat, the people at the next table suddenly retreated, as if Christine were a plague or a very dirty thing.
Christine’s eyes darkened. She really wanted to slam the table loudly and tell these people to say it in person and not to chatter behind her there, but thinking about it, there was no need. Her explanation was just an excuse for them.
Because they didn’t care about the truth of the matter. They just wanted to add some topics to their boring lives.
Christine still had a bunch of things to do and had no time to care about these bored people.
Just as Christine was burying her head in her food, she suddenly felt a plate being placed opposite her.
Christine wondered who dared to approach her during this unusual time.
Christine looked up and realized that the person was Duncan. There were so many seats, but he didn’t sit. Why did he have to sit opposite hier?
At this moment, everyone in the canteen was shocked again. Why was Duncan still sitting beside Nancy? Didn’t he already find out about the affair between Nancy and Randall? Why was Duncan still looking for Nancy? Could it be that Duncan was still infatuated with Nancy?
Chloe said to the woman behind her indignantly, “Just watch. Dr. Foster is definitely going to take revenge on this woman. He will definitely pour the rice in his hands directly on this woman’s head.”
When the others heard what Chloe said, they also felt that it made sense.
Chapter 65
Duncan had already caught the adultery on the spot. What was there to say about being infatuated?
The onlookers instantly revealed expectant and curious expressions. They fantasized about Duncan pouring all the food on the plate onto Nancy, making a fool of that woman.
Under the gazes of the onlookers, Duncan picked up a chicken drumstick from his plate and handed it to Christine. He said gently, “Why do you only eat vegetables? You’re so thin that you don’t need to lose weight. Come on. How about having a chicken drumstick?”
Christine remembered that when they were students eating in the school canteen, she had snatched Duncan’s chicken drumsticks.
Christine had done it on purpose. At the time, she had only thought it was fun.
But now that Duncan had delivered the drumstick to her plate, Christine felt disgusted.
In the past, to Christine, Duncan was like the spring breeze in March, like the warm sun in winter, and like an umbrella in the rain.
However, such a good man had slept with Blanche.
“Thanks. Enjoy yourself. I’m full.”
Christine left after saying that. She was not sloppy at all and did not give Duncan any chance.
Because Duncan was no longer worthy.
Chloe and the others were extremely shocked when they saw this scene.
Nancy had done something dirty, but Duncan had actually picked up a chicken drumstick for her. However, that woman had actually thrown a tantrum and rejected Duncan in public.
What a joke! How dare a flirtatious woman be so arrogant after being caught red–handed?
Chloe rolled up her sleeves and stepped forward, blocking Christine. She said, “Nancy, you’re truly something. Getting caught red–handed having an affair with Mr. Reeves, yet Dr. Foster still believes in you. He even went as far as serving you a chicken drumstick. But here you are, publicly rejecting him. Who do you think you are?”
Christine raised her eyebrows. Her voice was deep and filled with disdain. “You want to eat a chicken drumstick too? That one will be yours.”
Chloe paused, and a complicated expression appeared on her face.
Of course, Chloe wanted to eat Duncan’s drumsticks, but she was teaching Christine a lesson now.
“Nancy, we’re all women. Let me give you a piece of advice. Don’t be too arrogant and trample on Dr. Foster’s sincerity for you.”
Christine narrowed her charming eyes and said in a low voice, “Are you defending Dr. Foster now? But you had better ask him if he needs first.”
Chloe turned around and realized that Duncan only had eyes for Nancy. He did not even look at Chloe. In an instant, Chloc seemed to have become a clown.
At this moment, Christine took a step closer to Chloe and smiled gently. “I don’t object to you wanting to make a good impression in front of Duncan, but I don’t have the habit of being a stepping stone for others.”
Christine’s eyes turned cold, and Chloe instantly felt a chill run down her spine.
However, there were so many people watching Duncan now, and Duncan was also there. How could she lose?
