Chapter 71 The Child
“Let go of me!” Ben cried out in alarm. But seeing that Joe was unmoved, he knew that things were not that simple, so he gave up struggling.
Their posture attracted a lot of attention, but Joe ignored
them and went straight to the registration desk with Ben between his arms.
“Name.” Joe ignored the nurse’s curious gaze and asked Ben in a low voice.
Ben turned his head and ignored him.
Joe slapped Ben’s butt unceremoniously. “Speak!”
Ben covered his butt, and his eyes turned red. However, looking at the determined gaze of Joe, Ben could only grit his teeth and make up a fake name. “Ryan Shore.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a nurse came from not far away.
When the nurse saw Ben, she asked in surprise, “Ben Clinton? Why are you in the hospital again? Are you allergic?”
Joe’s gaze suddenly fell on Ben’s face.
Ben didn’t expect to meet the nurse who had taken care of him last time. She even recognized him. Finally, he couldn’t help crying.
2/4
The nurse who had been suspicious suddenly grabbed the child into her arms and asked, “Who are you? Where are his parents?”
Joe was caught off guard and was taken away. His eyes darkened as he said, “Put the child down.”
Seeing that something was wrong, Jack quickly explained the incident of them meeting the child and showed his work card at Smith Group to the nurse. Only then did the nurse reluctantly believe them.
But she still held Ben and said, “There is information about his parents in our hospital. I will contact them.”
Joe glanced at her coldly. “Why should I believe you?”
Under his gaze, the nurse felt a little uncertain, but she still insisted, “Since we don’t believe each other, why don’t we contact the child’s parents on the spot.””
Joe did not express an opinion. The nurse at the front desk quickly found Charlotte and called her.
“Hello?”
The moment Charlotte’s voice sounded from the speaker of the phone, Joe narrowed his eyes.
Before the nurse could speak, he asked, “Is that Charlotte speaking?”
On the other end of the phone, Charlotte was stunned. She subconsciously glanced at the phone number again. “Joe?”
Knowing that the situation was not good, Ben quickly shook off the nurse’s hand and sl*pped out of the crowd while the nurse and Joe were focused on the phone.
The nurse turned pale with fright and hurried to chase after him,
Just as Joe was about to give chase, he was suddenly stopped by a slender figure. “Joe, are you here to pick me up from the hospital?”
Joe looked at Wendy in front of him. The miscarriage incident had greatly damaged her vitality and she had lost a lot of weight.
Now she was looking at him expectantly, and the birthmark on
Im was very obvious.
After a moment of silence, Joe said to Jack, “Send Miss Swan
back. I’ll go find the child.”
After that, he strode away.
Wendy looked at Jack in shock. “Child? What child?”
Jack wailed in his heart, but he showed a perfect smile on his face and explained the matter of the child. “Mr. Smith has a
strong sense of responsibility and may feel that the child was brought to the hospital by himself, so he personally went to
find him.”
Wendy secretly clenched the belt of her bag and forced a smile. “It doesn’t matter. Take me back first.”
Jack quickly agreed and left the hospital with Wendy.
