Chapter 348 He Looks Like Abigail’s Brother
The next day, when Kelly arrived at Metro Hospital, Josh got out of another car. She hadn’t. mentioned her visit to
the library that morning. Instead, she told her brother she was meeting at friend and asked him not to worry.
Initially, he had no intentions of following her, but he couldn’t help himself.
His suspicions grew as he followed his sister. She had only been in Pendorf for a few days, making it unlikely that
she had formed a deep connection with someone so quickly. Furthermore, her carly morning visit to the hotel for
breakfast indicated that this friend held significant importance in her life.
Josh followed Kelly into the hospital and eventually saw her entering Room 602. He approached the payment
counter and asked the doctor sincerely, “Excuse me, has the fee for Room 602 not been paid? My sister said her
friend staying in this room hadn’t settled the bill yet and asked me to help pay it. However, I’m not sure if this is the
right room or not. Could you please check it for me?”
The doctor searched on the computer for a moment and then replied, “Are you sure you are not mistaken? An
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtelderly lady occupies room 602. There’s no way your sister’s friend would be that old.”
Josh expressed his confusion, stating, “But I just saw her entering Room 602. She even told me to make the
payment.”
After a brief silence, the doctor said, “Sir, the patient in Room 602 is a special case and doesn’t need to pay. Your
sister must have made a mistake. I suggest you ask her about it.”
“Thank you. I’ll ask her about it.” Then, Josh turned around and left. He wandered through the hospital corridors,
devoting about half an hour to exploring the facility. During his investigation. he uncovered the exclusive nature of
the wards in Building 1. These rooms were exclusively reserved for affluent individuals who had either invested in or
made significant contributions to the hospital. Remarkably, patients on the sixth floor or higher were exempt from
any admission fees.
In Pendorf, only three people could stay on the sixth floor. Among these, two were unknown to him, while the third
was Sean. After laying eyes on Sean’s name on the directory, Josh fell into contemplative silence. He carefully
pocketed his phone and, with determination, headed toward Room 602.
Inside the ward, Kelly engaged in a conversation with Lina. Suddenly, Josh appeared at the door and asked, “What
are you doing here, Kelly?” Having previously investigated Abigail, he was well- acquainted with the Grahams, thus
recognizing Lina.
Kelly turned around and was surprised to see him, “Josh, did you follow me here?”
He nodded, and his gaze wandered briefly over Lina before fixing it back on Kelly. “I was worried
1/3
about you. After all, you’re not familiar with Pendorf.”
Kelly stood up and smiled. “I’m not a child anymore. I used to handle things on my own when you weren’t around.
I’ve grown up. By the way, this is Sean’s grandmother, Old Mrs. Graham.”
“Are you Kelly’s brother? You both are so good-looking.” Lina smiled as she looked at Josh. However, a hint of
contempt flickered within her. After all, he bore an uncanny resemblance to Abigail. In that fleeting moment, Lina
wondered if he was indeed Kelly’s brother rather than Abigail’s.
He had no particular fondness for Lina, and he politely nodded in response to her comment. “Thank you.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Old Mrs. Graham had been kidnapped a few days ago, leading to her hospitalization due to severe shock. Since
she is still recovering, I decided to come and take care of her,” Kelly explained to Josh softly. There was no sign of
guilt in her expression. Despite her awareness of his lack of knowledge regarding the situation, she remained
unfazed.
“This hospital offers great medical care. The medical staff can take care of Old Mrs. Graham better than you,” Josh
expressed his discomfort with his sister taking care of Lina in the hospital. He wondered whether Kelly was oblivious
to Sean’s apparent disapproval of their family.
“Kelly is more considerate than the nurses, and her company means a lot to me,” Lina said with a smile despite her
reservations about his resemblance to Abigail. Inwardly, she reminded herself that he was, in fact, Kelly’s brother,
and their similar appearances were merely a coincidence.
Josh smiled and said nothing.
Only when Lina fell asleep after receiving her IV did he discreetly motion for Kelly to step outside the room. As they
stood at the entrance of the emergency exit, he regarded her with a puzzled expression. “I don’t quite grasp why
you came to Pendorf,” he admitted.
