And The Daddy Is… The Infertile Guy?!

Chapter 304

Sandra took a bite of her crispy doughnut, her words slightly muffled, “They’re all rich kids with their big motorcycles. In the event of an accident, They’re either dead or maimed.”

Gwendolyn sighed.

Sandra continued, “Don’t rush off after your shift. I’ve roped in Jeannie, and we’re hitting the mall.”

“The mall? What for?” Gwendolyn asked.

“Never mind that. We’ll guide you. Time to make rounds, don’t keep the old doctors waiting.”

With a nonchalant nod, Gwendolyn slipped into her hospital uniform and joined the hospital veterans on

their ward rounds.

Starting on the second floor of the inpatient department, the recent admissions were aflutter with the sudden attention of several specialists.

Fortuitous indeed.

They checked all the way to the orthopedic department. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Standing at the door of one of the rooms, Gwendolyn recognized a familiar voice.

Through the open doorway, Magnolia, her face pale and eyes swollen, was scolding, “I told you racing was dangerous. Do you have any idea how many people died this time? You freaked me out. Skyler, when will you grow up?”

Skyler in the bed, his head, and limbs swathed in bandages like a mummy, had a rebellious spark–in his eyes as he responded with indifference, “I’m just the spare to the Hamilton family. Sanford’s the golden boy, Selina is the darling. No loss if I kick the bucket.”

Magnolia clutched her chest and cried out, “You’re my child, and how can you be ‘spare‘? You’re such a disappointment.”

Skyler’s eyes fell, his expression a mix of self–mockery, “Dad stormed the hospital and cursed me out when he saw I wasn’t dead. Selina didn’t even bother showing up, and slept in like nothing happened

Magnolia tried to explain, “Selina’s timid, so I didn’t tell her.”

A scoff from Skyler, “They say twins have a sixth sense. Seems she’s been heartless since the cradle. Maybe she’s the one we picked up from outside? Oh no, you dote on her too much. I must be the foundling.”

“Skyler, you…”

The attending interrupted, “Doctors on rounds, family needs to step out for a bit.”

Taking a deep breath, Magnolia’s heart ached as she left the room, waiting in the corridor. Gwendolyn passed her by and entered the room.

“Minor concussion, multiple fractures, no internal damage. The patient’s young, and he’ll recover quickly.”

Lucky indeed.

Gwendolyn nodded at the attending’s diagnosis..

“Dr. Quigley, would you check on him?” he suggested.

“Sure.”

“No major issues, he’ll be fine with some rest,” she said softly after doing her check–up.

Skyler’s fingers hooked onto her white coat, teasingly, “Dr. Quigley, you sure you don’t want to check a little more thoroughly?”

Gwendolyn pulled her coat back, replying coolly, “That won’t be necessary.”

Skyler found her stern expression oddly appealing.

“You’re way prettier than Selina,” he stated carelessly, a smirk on his face.

“Dr. Quigley’s quite popular.” the older doctors joked as they bustled out of the room.

Gwendolyn quickly left as well.

Behind her, Magnolia’s admonishing voice continued, “How dare you put down Selina? She’s much prettier than Gwendolyn. No wonder Selina doesn’t warm to you, always talking nonsense.”

Skyler replied nonchalantly, “Mom, being blind to the truth is a disease. It needs a cure. I think she’d make a better sister than Selina anyway.”
