Chapter 107

Natalie returned to the long-lost Athana Hospital

Natalie came to the hospital to work early in the morning. The two little darlings had been very excited

when they played the previous night. At the moment, they were still sleeping soundly. Occasionally,

they would roll over. Ruby slept quite peacefully. Jasper, on the other hand, kept tossing and turning,

just like a pancake being flipped.

She walked over gently and kissed the foreheads of the two little ones. She tucked them in before

leaving the room.

She took her phone and went out.

She arrived at the hospital entrance. As she sat in the BMW car that her brother had bought for her,

she sent Sherri a message. Where are you?]

Ding-dong. Sherri quickly replied. [Two minutes.]

Glancing at her phone. Natalie smiled and put it away. As usual, she did not carry a handbag. She put

her phone in her pocket.

She unlocked the car, opened the door, and got out of the car. Standing at the entrance of the hospital,

she was dazed for a moment. Time passed so quickly. In the blink of an eye, two years had passed.

While she was in a daze, she heard the voice of someone talking excitedly. “What’s wrong? You’re

standing there in a daze. You can’t find the entrance, huh?”

Looking at her rejuvenated and lively best friend, Natalie felt happy. Just yesterday, her friend seemed

down and out, but seeing her friend in this state today made her breathe a sigh of relief

Natalie smiled brightly and said, “Is the real Sherri back?”

Sherri flicked her hair and wore a confident expression. That’s right,” she said. “There’s nothing that I

can’t handle.” “So, the problem is resolved, huh?” Natalie asked. She thought, “Can Juana tolerate and

accept things so quickly?”

“My mom said not to adopt and that I should have my own child, so I came to the conclusion that it’s

fine as long as the child is given birth by me.” Sherri said.

Natalie was left speechless. “What are you talking about?” she said “Are you sure that’s what your

mom really thinks?”

Sherri looked at her dumbfounded best friend. She proceeded to share with her friend the conversation

she had had with Juana yesterday.

Natalie was completely speechless. She could not understand how Sherri concluded that Juana had

accepted the situation. “The mother and the daughter were on completely different wavelengths,

Natalie thought,

“Sherri, let’s go to the director’s office first, Natalie said. “We can talk about this matter thoroughly later”

Sherri leaned closer to her best friend and asked, “Did Ruby look for me?”

Natalie replied. “She did. She looked for you the moment she opened her eyes.”

Sherri sighed and said, “I miss Ruby a little. What should I do?”

“I miss them too, so let’s wrap things up early and get off work and go home early,” Natalie said.

Inside the director’s office.

As they walked into the office, they were not the only ones present. Several people who had traveled

abroad together were already inside.

By the time they went in, the others had already finished their business. They greeted each other

before leaving

The hospital director said, “Could you two have come any later? We’ve already assigned everyone.”

Sherri said in a low voice, “But you didn’t specify the time, right? It’s only half past seven, isn’t it?”

The hospital director had an exceptionally keen sense of hearing. Even though Sherri spoke softly, he

heard her. “Hmph, you’re so talkative,” he said. “Your performance overseas is not bad. Starting today,

you’ll be transferred from a regular office to the specialist clinic. Step up your game.”

“I promise to be conscientious and give my best to save the dying and heal the injured,” Sherri said.

“I think you will give your best in outtalking everybody instead, right?” the hospital director said.

The hospital director began to make arrangements for Natalie. “Mrs. Wilson, due to your outstanding

performance abroad, the hospital has decided to assign you to the specialist clinic as well, the hospital

director said. “The video of your surgery has already been used as learning material for other doctors. I

hope you will continue to work hard.”

Natalie accepted, saying, “Okay.”

The two of them walked out arm in arm with bright smiles. They were especially happy as they would

not have to work night shifts any wore or be on duty for extended hours. This was the beauty of being a

returnee upon acquiring professional experience overseas. Talent was important

The Athana Hospital was incredibly employee-centric and had a completely different arrangement

compared to other hospitals

The hospital director mentioned that as long as it was not a special period for the hospital, they did not

have to work night shifts, let alone be on duty for extended hours. This was the most enjoyable part.

They did not even have to work today.

This way, they would have more time to accompany their children, balancing both career and family. It

was perfect.

Sherri smiled. She was in high spirits. “How about we bring the two cuties to let my mom see them

today?” she said.

Natalie stopped in her tracks. She was somewhat anxious. “Does your mom have a heart disease?”

she asked.

“No.” Sherri sund Hurry up Let’s go pick up the little cuties”

In the Landor tamily’s house at noon, the atmosphere was a little awkward Juana was caught off guard.

Two adorable children stood in front of her. She used her gaze on the incredibly cute children. Then,

she looked at Natalie. She swallowed her saliva and took a sip of water. She was a little shocked.

“Natalie, are these two children really yours?” she asked

From the moment Natalie introduced the children as her own, Juana had been so shocked that she

could not speak. She was still digesting this piece of information “She brought back a pair of twins after

going overseas,” Juana thought. “The point is that I have never heard of her getting married. She had

actually thought of playing matchmaker to make Natalie her daughter-in-law after Natalie returned from

her overseas study.

Now that Natalie was already the mother of two children, there was no need for any matchmaking. The

dream of having Natalie as a daughter-in-law was no longer applicable,

Natalie sled, anticipating such a reaction. “That’s right, Mrs. Landor,” she replied.

Then, Natalie slowly introduced the two children. She said, “Mrs. Landor, this is Ruby. Look, isn’t she

adorable?” As she spoke, she gently pushed Ruby toward Juana,

Juana shifted her gaze from Natalie’s face to Ruby’s face. As soon as she looked, she was

immediately melted by Ruby’s

cuteness ‘She’s incredibly adorable and very beautiful,” Juana thought.

Juana’s voice rose a few notches in astonishment. Jeez, you have such great child-bearing ability,

Natalie,” she said. “How did you manage to give birth to such a beautiful daughter? And your son is so

handsome as well. If my two disappointing children were as capable as you, it would be great. If they

could bring me a child like this, I would be overjoyed.”

Juana was truly a little envious of Natalie for having such good-looking children. She also wished that

her son and daughter would get married as soon as possible and give birth to a grandchild for her to

look after.

Natalie secretly heaved a sigh of relief. She asked Juana a question to sound her out. “Mrs. Landor,

you don’t mind that I’m a single mother, huh?” she said

Juana was stunned for a moment. She did not expect Natalie to ask that question. Admittedly, it would

be unrealistic if she were to say that she did not mind. However, when she saw the two adorable

children, she dismissed the thought.

The impressive Ruby cutely walked up to Juana. She picked up the fruit on the table, handed it to

Juana, and said, “Ma’am, please eat”

Thus made Juana overjoyed. “Oh my, you’re truly adorable,” she said. “Why are you so sensible?” She

could not help but hold. Ruby in her lap and pinch her little face.

While feeding Ruby, she said. “Natalie, you know what? I don’t at all mind that you are a single mother.

On the contrary, I think you’re terrific. You gave birth to two adorable children. I admire you. What are

the names of these two little kids?”

Juana kept fiddling with Ruby’s clothes, hair, and Jasper’s hair. One could tell that she loved children.

Sherri had been anxious. She was now relieved. “Ruby is impressive,” she thought. “She knows what

she needs to do.”

“Mrs Landor, we usually call her Ruby.” Natalie said. “Her name is Ruby Wilson, which means

unexpected joy. Her brother’s name is Jasper Wilson. It means the joy of the family.”

Juana muttered to herself. “Ruby Jasper. Pretty good. Pretty good. Great names.”

Sherri nervously observed her mother’s expression. She could not help but ask, “Mom, you like it,

huh?”

Juana blurted out, saying, “Nonsense. How can I not like such cute children? If you’re capable, give me

a grandchild. Look at Natalie She’s already the mother of two chulddren. Look at you, you don’t even

have a boyfriend. I think that Mr. Blackwell I saw the other day is pretty good. But you’re always

nitpicking. And now you’re alone.”

Sherri thought. “Mom, you’re amazing.”

Upon saying that, Juana rolled her eyes at Sherri in dissatisfaction. Then, she said, “Natalie, is there

anyone that will look after the children when you go to work in the future? If there isn’t, bring them over.

I’ll help you look after them”

Natalie was overjoyed. “Mrs. Landor, won’t this be too much of a hassle for you?” she asked.

Jasper did not talk a lot throughout the conversation. He just kept playing with the toys he brought. He

was not in high spirits.

Juana said, “It’s not a hassle for me. Look, this child and I hit it off quite well. Besides. I spend time

window shopping. I’m bored every day. It’d be great if there’s a little child accompanying me.”

Natalie pinched Sherri’s waist from behind.

Upon receiving the signal, Sherri immediately said, “It’s not a hassle. We’re like a family. Mom. Natalie

has to work tomorrow. Why don’t we let Ruby stay with us tonight? This way. Natalie can be more

relaxed when she works tomorrow. Juana hurriedly nodded and said, “Sure thing. Would this child be

uncomfortable around strangers at night, though? Would she look for you in the middle of the night?”

Ruby called out softly, “Mommy Sherri, carry me.”

Sherri carried Ruby and said, “Um, Mom, actually Ruby slept with me when we were at Sapphire City.

So, she won’t cry as long as I’m around.”

Juana was a little puzzled. When she glanced at Ruby, she felt that Ruby looked a little familiar.

However, Ruby did not look like Sherri, so she did not say anything about Ruby’s look.

Natalie carried the quiet Jasper home. While they were about to head home. Juana even politely

requested that Natalie leave Jasper in her house as well. However, Natalie came up with the excuse

that Jasper would cling to her at night. Hence, Jasper did not stay eventually.
