“Don't mention it. The edema hasn't gone away yet. Don't drink too much water," Sheffield cautioned, then turned around and left.
Down the hall, there was a TV mounted on the wall. The hostess's sweet voice came from the TV.
"Now, put your hands together for..." The hostess said the name, but Sheffield didn't take note of it. He was too busy on his rounds. He adjusted the oxygen tube for the patient in bed
No. 9.
When he turned around and walked towards the door, he heard someone muttering, “Who is that? She's gorgeous.”
“I don't know. I've never seen her before. Just now, I heard that the hostess introduced her as a CEO. She's holding a press conference for some modeling show. And her name is...Eve...or something. Um, I can't remember."
Suddenly, a familiar voice reached Sheffield's ears. It was like a firework exploding in the air.
“Good evening, everyone. I'm Evelyn
Hilton, Large and in charge..
He stopped suddenly. The girl who followed him closely almost bumped into him.
Sheffield turned around and took a few steps back, afraid that he was hearing things. He fixed his eyes on the woman on the screen as if she would disappear at any second.
The woman was in a black evening dress wearing a priceless ruby. She had never left his thoughts, and now there she was!
‘What did the hostess call her just now? Eveline Sheldon? Evelyn
Hilton?
At this moment, Sheffield couldn't help but ask himself, ‘Are you really surprised? Are you happy or sad? You finally found her, but she isn't who you thought she was. She gave you a fake name, even!*
A woman in her fifties next to him asked Sheffield with a smile, "You okay, Dr. Sheffield?"
Her partner laughed and said, “I think Dr. Sheffield is a little preoccupied at the moment."
The crowd roared with Laughter.
On the TV, Evelyn nodded to the audience gracefully and left the stage.
Sheffield snapped out of his reverie.
“I'm okay. That woman's beauty shook me, that's all.”
“Ha-ha! Dr. Sheffield, do you have a girlfriend? I can introduce you to someone, if you Like.”
With a half-joking smile, Sheffield replied, “Okay. Thank you for your kindness, ma'am. I'll treat you to tea sometime! Back to work!"
The woman couldn't help but grin from ear to ear while talking to a handsome doctor Like Sheffield.
After checking the patient in bed No. 3, Sheffield went back to his office, took off his white gown and hung it in the closet. Then he took out his cell phone and called Horace.
