《Who's the Substitute Now?》全部章節：第 381 章 - 第 390 章

Daniel tucked the small wooden box into his pocket. While the box wasn't large, it caused a noticeable bulge in his pocket. Placing the clothes he had worn during the surgery on the chair Natalie had brought him, he cast a stoic glance at Natalie.Natalie opened her mouth to say something, but no words came out. Since he was about to leave, Philip must have been treated. It would be advantageous to her for Daniel to leave now.If Joshua asked any questions, she could easily make up some lies without him around. After all, no one would be able to expose her.Without sparing Joshua a glance, Daniel simply walked out of the room with his hands behind his back.Just as he was about to leave, Joshua called out to him. "Dr. Sullivan."Although his voice carried no emotions, one could tell what he was trying to convey.Upon hearing that, Natalie had a bad feeling. She hurriedly stepped forward, grabbing Joshua's arm."Josh, Dr. Sullivan is like that. Don't stoop to his level. He mu

Natalie frowned as she recognized the newcomer. Her face fell, and her tone was simply unfriendly. "Natasha, what are you doing here?"Why did Natasha have to cling to her like a plaster? She couldn't shake her off no matter what."Am I not allowed to be here?" Natasha asked.Upon scanning the surroundings, she spotted her uncle."This hospital isn't even yours. Who are you to question me?" Natasha said as she walked toward Daniel.Daniel scratched his head upon seeing his niece. Glancing at his watch, he wondered how she found him so quickly.Just as Natasha was about to reach Daniel, a pair of black leather shoes came into her view."Natasha, the hospital has an important guest today. Your presence is not welcome."Raising her head, she saw Joshua staring straight at her with his pitch-black eyes. Clearly, he did not welcome her there.Natasha smirked. Of course, she knew Joshua didn't want to see her."Don't worry, I'm leaving right away. I'd hate to be an eyesore."Wit

Standing in a corner, Natalie wasn't wearing the prettiest expression.After all, Daniel had just exposed her, and she didn't know how to face Joshua.However, Daniel suddenly uttered the name "Natty", which made her heart skip a beat.At first, she was puzzled, but she later realized that he had indeed said her nickname upon listening carefully.Immediately, she stood up straight.Despite Daniel's earlier hostility and harsh words, he had suddenly changed. Had his heart softened upon seeing her being scolded by Joshua?Although she couldn't fathom what he was thinking, she was still quite happy to hear him say that. She cast him a grateful look.However, Daniel felt uncomfortable to see her soft and watery eyes. It made his skin crawl.It was creepy to see her look at him like that.He quickly moved toward Natasha, trying to avoid Natalie's almost tearful gaze.Noticing Daniel's movements, Joshua couldn't help but turn around to look at Natalie. There she was, standing behin

Daniel pulled Natasha out of the hospital. Looking back now and then, he was afraid that Joshua would cling to them like a nuisance.It wasn't until they were completely out of the hospital's entrance that he finally breathed a sigh of relief."Natty, does Joshua always talk to you like that?" Daniel gripped Natasha's hand tightly, sounding displeased."That's just his personality. I've gotten used to it," Natasha replied calmly.Daniel's frustration spiked. "That's outrageous! How can you put up with it?"If it were him, he would have put that ignorant guy in his place long ago.Daniel wanted to keep going on about Joshua, but Natasha brushed it off, saying, "Don't be mad. I'm not bothered, so you don't have to be either."She never really cared about Joshua, so whatever he said or did didn't bother her at all."How can I not be mad? I'm just standing up for you, Natty…" Daniel protested."Alright, alright," Natasha soothed gently. She knew Daniel was only looking out for her

Joshua walked ahead briskly, paying no attention to Natalie's desperate attempts to stop him.He headed straight for the ICU, where the bodyguard quickly opened the door for him.Inside, Philip lay in the hospital bed, surrounded by the machines' rhythmic beeping.The old man's face was pale, and his wrinkles were clear. Although his breathing was regular, there was no sign of him waking up.Joshua frowned. He couldn't understand why Philip wasn't waking up. This had left him with a bad feeling.Meanwhile, Natalie, looking distressed, struggled her way to the ICU's entrance.Spotting Joshua standing resolutely, she attempted to rush toward him, only to be thwarted by a sturdy arm.Natalie's brows knitted together. She was wondering who else besides Joshua would dare to stop her.She lifted her eyes to meet Terry's stern expression. His serious demeanor and imposing presence made it clear she wasn't getting through.Terry stood tall and firm. "Ms. Lovelace, Mr. Grayson doesn't
