Chapter 822


    All of a sudden, ine froze. She stood rooted to the ground and silently tried to digest what she


    just heard.


    Sighing, the cleaner continued, "Dr. Perkins is a nice guy. He smiles at everyone and is very caring,


    especially to old people like us. However, I had no idea he is such a pervert..."


    "I know, right. That''s why people say you can''t judge a book by its cover."


    "Do you think these rumors may be fake?"


    "I doubt it. I saw the policee yesterday. The Director was surprised as well. He even fired Dr.


    Perkins..."


    Upon hearing this, ine could not take it anymore. She walked up to them, eagerly wanting to find


    out the truth. "Hello. May I know which Dr. Perkins were you guys talking about just now?"


    One of the cleaners looked at her suspiciously. "Who are you? Why do you want to know that?"


    "I have a friend who is a doctor working in this hospital. His surname is Perkins. I was a little worried


    when I heard you mentioning Dr. Perkins, but I''m not sure whether you''re talking about my friend, so


    I wanted to make things clear."


    In the face of ine''s polite behavior, the cleaners'' suspicion was dissipated.


    The cleaner who had beenmenting over Howard told ine, "We''re talking about Howard


    Perkins. He''s a young man. Is he a friend of yours?"


    Howard Perkins...


    They even had the same name. It must be the Howard she knew then.


    In fact, a lot of suspicions fell on Howard, but ine chose not to believe it. She wanted to confirm it


    with the cleaners...


    Yesterday, when Howard came home, he looked so exhausted...


    Not to mention he broke the television today...


    And the dy of newspapers delivery...


    The incident must have been reported on television and in newspapers. To not let Ronan worry,


    Howard came up with these ideas to keep the news from him.


    When Howard arrived at the door of the operating room, he realized that ine was long gone.


    Taking out his mobile phone, he noticed he had a missed call. However, the phone rang only for a


    few seconds.


    His cell phone was on mute just now, so he did not realize his phone was ringing at all...


    Then, he called ine. "Where are you?"


    "Ms. Kaur and I are in the ward."


    ine''s voice sounded a little strange, but Howard did not think much about it. He spoke in a low


    voice, "Tell me the ward number. I''ll go find you."


    Hence, ine told him the ward number.


    After finding the ward, Howard pushed the door open and went in. Coming into sight was ine,


    who was sitting in a chair, watching TV with the remote control in her hand.


    "ine..."


    He entered the ward and closed the door. "Why did youe here without telling me? What are


    you watching?"


    As soon as the words left his mouth, Howard suddenly thought of something. Snapping back to his


    senses, he immediately turned his head to look at the television.


    The news was ying on the television, and an anchorwoman was reading thetest news. "A male


    doctor reportedly misused his power by sexually exploiting a female patient. Sources also said that


    the doctor was once involved in medical malpractice..."


    No names were mentioned in the news.


    Silently, ined looked at Howard.


    Only then did she notice that he was frozen to the spot.


    "Dr. Perkins..."


    ine called out to him, "I won''t tell Grandpa. Don''t worry."


    Slowly, Howard came to his senses and pursed his lips. "How did you know it was me?"


    Then, ine told him about how she overheard the conversation between the two cleaners in the


    corridor. Upon hearing that, Howard sneered.


    Turning off the television, ine got up and walked up to him, "Dr. Perkins, I know you were


    wrongly used. You will be fine. I believe in you. There will be justice for you."


    ncing at her, Howard asked, "How do you know that I''m wrongly used?"


    "Because I believe in you. You are not the kind of person who would do such things."


    "What if it''s me..."


    "No way." ine shook her head. "It can''t be you. I''ve known you for over a year. You''re not


    someone who would do such things."


    Looking up at him with her sparkling eyes, she sounded confident. Not a trace of doubt was heard


    in her voice.


    An indescribable feeling washed over Howard. Stretching out his hand, he pulled ine, and


    without a second thought, he lowered his head and kissed her.


    ine was dumbfounded.


    The next second, a loud scream rang out, "Ah!"


    As soon as Norissa opened her eyes, she saw ine kissing Howard in front of her!


    What a shameless b*tch!


    Coming back to her senses, ine quickly pushed Howard away.


    However, Howard tried to pull her back. "ine..."


    Shaking his hand away, ine strode out of the room.


    "ine!"


    Seeing that Howard was about to chase after ine, Norissa immediately rushed over and grabbed


    his hand. "Howard, don''t go!"


    "Get off me!" Howard tried to get away from her but could not get rid of her grip. He could not help


    but smiled coldly, "Go lie down on your bed!"


    "Please don''t go! Don''t leave me and our baby alone!"


    "F*ck off!"


    Howard tried his best to pull himself away from her.


    "Ah!"


    Shrieking, Norissa fell to the ground and started shouting, "Help! Help!"


    Hearing themotion inside the ward, the nurse immediately stood up and went inside. Upon


    laying eyes on Howard, they did not dare to utter a word. Hurriedly, they helped Norissa onto the


    bed and called the doctor.


    After the doctor gave Norissa a checkup, he pulled Howard aside before saying sincerely, "Dr.


    Perkins, after all, we''re colleagues, so please let me give you a piece of friendly advice. A lot of


    things had been happening to you for the past few days, and everybody in the hospital is aware of


    it. You can''t afford to make any mistakes at this stage. This woman kept saying that she''s pregnant


    with your child when you brought her in. What would other people think of you if you ignore her like


    that?"


    Howard sneered, "You don''t even know if this child is really mine yet. If it''s really mine, I''ll take full


    responsibility. But what if it''s not mine? Wouldn''t I be making a fool out of myself?!"

    Sighing, the doctor continued, "What if the baby is yours? If you treat her like this and the baby


    turned out to be yours..."


    Then, he stopped talking.


    Patting Howard on the shoulder, the doctor left.


    Howard stood rooted to the ground for a long time before gritting his teeth and closing the door.


    Then, he sat down on a chair.


    Norissa was smugged.


    Tilting his head, Howard looked at her. His gazended on her bulging belly. "How many months


    pregnant are you?"


    Knowing that he wanted to find out what was going on, Norissa lifted her chin and answered, "Six


    months. Try counting the time. It matches."


    Howard sneered. "Is it really my child?"


    "Of course!"


    "Alright. We''ll do a DNA test then." Howard remained expressionless. "If it''s mine. I''ll take care of it,


    and you can leave."


    "How can you do that to me?!" Immediately, Norissa''s eyes widened. "The baby can''t live without a


    mother!"


    "Are you expecting me to marry you?"


    "Anyway, the child can''t live without a mother and aplete family. It''ll feel out of ce!" Norissa


    snorted. "If you don''t promise to give the child aplete family, I''ll go look for Mr. Ronan!"


    Instantly, Howard''s face turned cold. "If you dare to tell Grandpa, I won''t allow you to give birth to


    this child, let alone marry you!"


    Looking at the coldness in his eyes, Norriasa was shocked. Shivering, she hurriedly said, "Okay, I


    won''t say a word. I''m hungry. Buy me something to eat."


    At the same time, she was secretly starting to scheme against Howard.
