Chapter 1679


    Maisie didn''t have her guard up. She thought it was just a routine check-up, so she immediately


    agreed. When


    Daniel approached her to ask what happened, she gave him a brief exnation, and he frowned. Nina


    had


    promised to handle Maisie''s consultation herself, so why was she delegating it to the nurse?


    Furthermore, it wasn''t


    time for the surgery yet, which made him uneasy. But Maisie couldn''t help but smile when she saw his


    nervousness.


    "What''s wrong?" She gently caressed his cheeks. "You seem upset."


    "No, I..."


    "Are you worried about me?" She smiled. "Don''t worry. The nurse said it was just a simple check-up.


    Dr. Perkins is


    busy, so she''ll be doing it."


    "Okay." He nodded.


    She used her thumbs to smooth out his furrowed brow, making himugh. He hugged her gently.


    "I might have overthought it," he admitted. "I don''t know why, but I tend to overthink everything when it


    comes to


    you."


    "Then think on the positive side," she encouraged, looking into his eyes. "For instance, my


    stomachache is minor,


    and the check-up will turn out great!"


    "That''s right!" He hugged her, his feelings mixed. "It will be great!" -


    Maisie went to the hospital the next day.


    The nurse led her to the consultation room, drawing the curtains. The room was dimly lit with the


    lingering scent of


    disinfectant.


    The nurse put on gloves, wearing an uneasy smile and avoiding eye contact.


    Maisiey down on the bed, taking a few deep breaths to calm herself.


    "Please remove your pants, Ms. Squire," the nurse instructed. "ce your feet on the bed. It might...


    hurt a little.


    Please bear with it."


    "What?" Maisie was taken aback, her cheeks blushing. "Didn''t Dr. Perkins inform you? I-I''m still single."


    The nurse bit her lip. "You''re single? Ha! It can''t be..."


    "It''s true," Maisie exined as she sat up. "I''m single. Dr. Perkins didn''t do this for mest time. You''re


    making a


    mistake!"


    The nurse thought it was almost time to fetch the medical report when someone suddenly opened the


    door.


    Both the nurse and Maisie were shocked.


    It was Nina who entered, with Daniel right behind her.


    The nurse turned pale and trembled, only managing to stammer after staring at them for a moment. "D-


    Dr.


    Perkins, w-why are you here?"


    Nina appeared serious, while Daniel looked cold, exuding an air of authority.


    Maisie was bewildered but quickly approached Daniel and asked shyly, "I''m here for a check-up, but


    why are you


    here?"


    "I''m sorry, Ms. Squire," Nina said with a smile as she looked at her. "It should have been another


    patient scheduled

    for a check-up today. She''s been married for a couple of years and has two kids. It just so happens that


    her name is


    quite simr to yours, which is how my nurse made this mistake. I apologize for the confusion."


    She pulled out a medical record with "Maise Squire" written on it. It was easy to mistake with just one


    letter missing.


    "Your check-up will be tomorrow, Ms. Squire, and I''ll personally oversee it," Nina assured. "I''ll handle all


    your check-


    ups, so don''t trust anyone else who schedules appointments for you. If there''s a check-up needed, I''ll


    contact you


    directly."
