Chapter 427

That afternoon, Matthew returned to the hospital. There was a new nurse, and a group of nurses was
gossiping with each other in front of the reception counter.

“Hey, have you heard? I heard that the new nurse at our hospital is very pretty!”

“Your information is so outdated. I heard about that yesterday. The nurse reported in yesterday. At the
time, many doctors in the hospital were amazed by her.”

“Right? I heard that dozens of doctors have been trying their best to get the nurse to join their
departments.”

“Those b*stards don’t have any good intentions in doing so. Just looking at a gorgeous woman is
enough to make them go weak in the knees.”

“Well, being beautiful is an advantage. You didn’t see that nurse yesterday. Apparently, she was the
campus belle while she was in school. Even as a woman, I was amazed by her looks, so what more
those b*stards.”

“That news is outdated. Let me tell you; this afternoon, a few of the younger doctors nearly started a fight
in front of the vice director’s office. The reason was that they wanted the nurse to be assigned to their
departments.”

“Seriously? All for the sake of a nurse? Do they need to go so far?”

“Sigh. When will they start a fight over me? That would be awesome!”

“Forget it. If you lost around 25 kilos, you might stand a chance.”



“Say; which department do you think she’ll be assigned to in the end?”



“I’m guessing that she would either be assigned to Tristan’s department or Steven’s department.”

“Yeah, I think so too. After all, Tristan Fields and Steven Newton are both famous doctors in our hospital.
Moreover, they come from a good family and are single. They will definitely not pass up on such a good
opportunity.”

“I’m sure you don’t know this, but I saw Tristan’s mother coming to the hospital this morning. I’m
guessing that she came because of this.”

“Oh, wow! Was she here to check out her daughter-in-law?”

“Only Tristan would be a match for a beautiful woman like that. That’s quite suitable…”

Listening to their conversation, Matthew felt rather speechless. Nearly getting into a fight over a nurse?
Don’t they feel embarrassed? Even so, he didn’t put much thought into it as he headed directly to his
department. As soon as he entered his office, he felt that something was amiss.

His office had been cleaned—it was neat and tidy. Moreover, there was a strong scent of perfume in the
air. Hence, he was very puzzled. I’m the only person in my department. Why would there be perfume in
the air?

Amid his confusion, a nurse walked in. When he took a closer look, it turned out to be Crystal! Then, he
was momentarily taken aback. “Miss Harrison, w-why are you here?”

Crystal wiped at the sweat beading her forehead and smiled. “Mr. Larson, I’m about to graduate soon
and I need to start my internship now. So, I applied to be a nurse at this hospital. As your medical skills
are excellent, I wanted to shadow you and learn some skills from you.”

His heart thumped slightly. Was the new nurse they were gossiping about Crystal Harrison? The campus
belle? The beautiful woman? That must be her! Then, he replied, “I’m sorry. My department is usually



pretty quiet, so I don’t need a nurse. If you want to have practical experience, you should go to the other
departments.”

In response, she hurriedly said, “Matthew, I came here to learn from you. Don’t worry; I’m here to help
you. I swear I won’t disturb you. Also, my office is right next door. If there’s anything you need, please
don’t hesitate to call for me.”

Watching Crystal as she left, Matthew felt a headache coming on. To be honest, he did not have a good
impression of her. If she wasn’t Joseph’s granddaughter, he wouldn’t even bother giving her a single
moment of his time.

Rather, he couldn’t believe she was so thick-skinned that she still dared to approach him despite
everything that happened. Even so, he said nothing more on account of Joseph.

In any case, Matthew’s department was truly quiet. Despite sitting in his office for two hours, not a single
patient came in. At 5 PM, Joseph rushed to the hospital and personally picked Matthew up. After that,
they went directly to Billy’s home.
