Chapter 4792
By now it was already ten in the morning. Usually, doctors did rounds right after shift change. Even if they lingered with other patients, they would have come by this time.
If Dr. Pollock hadnât shown up, then either she was on leave or she was on the night shift.
Alex muttered in a low voice, âWhy didnât Dr. Pollock tell me she was off? Iâve been waiting here for two hours, and she still hasnât come.â
The butler: ââŚâ
The tone of his young masterâs words carried more than simple impatience.
Could it be that Alex had actually taken a liking to Dr. Pollock during his stay here?
The butler thought about her. Aitana wasnât a stunning beauty, but she was attractiveâpleasant to the eye with a round, soft face that gave off a blessed, warm look. Personally, he preferred round faces too. Maybe the Eighth Young Master shared his taste?
More than that, Dr. Pollock was gentle and good-natured. She treated patients with patience and kindness, answering every question from them and their families. No wonder she was so well-liked in the ward.
Just then, two nurses approached.
âMr. York, your dressings need to be changed today,â one said with a sweet smile.
Since Alex had been admitted, the nurses had practically competed to come by his roomâto change his dressings, give IVs, or accompany doctors on rounds.
The reason was simple: Mr. York was too handsome.
And on top of that, some had already discovered his true identityâthe Eighth Young Master of the York family, the wealthiest clan in Wiltspoon. Every young master in that family was a catch, and all of them were heartbreakingly handsome.
The rumors were true.
Alex and his brothers were indeed dream lovers for countless women. No wonder the nurses treated him with extra care and patience.
âOh, okay.â Alex didnât dare directly ask about Aitana, so he simply returned to the ward and let the nurses tend to him.
His condition had improved. He no longer needed IV drips, and the pain wasnât as bad.
As one nurse worked on his dressing, Alex asked casually, âWhy didnât I see Dr. Pollock today?â
âSheâs on night shift,â the nurse explained cheerfully. âSheâll be here in the evening.â
Alexâs lips curved faintly. âSo sheâs on night shift. I thought she was on leave.â
That meant she would come for rounds at 8 p.m. Heâd get to see her then.
Over the days of his stay, heâd already made a good impression on her. Though Aitana was busy and he wasnât a critical patient, she had visited in the beginning. Once he no longer needed IV drips, his chances to see her shrank to just the daily rounds.
Because he wanted to see her more, he often lingered by the door after she finished with his ward, just to watch her moving in and out of other rooms.
So this⌠this must be what it feels like to fall in love.
Alex missed her whenever she wasnât around. If he didnât see her, he thought of her day and night.
He even went as far as to learn about her background. Aitana came from a family of doctors. Nearly everyone in her familyâand even among her relativesâwas a physician, whether in traditional medicine or Western practice.
