"Why is it so strange?" Collin asked.
"She looks very strange. Her eyes are filled with despair." Dorothy pinched her earring and pressed it. Then, she took out her phone, sent the photo she had just taken to her employee. She then sent another message: [Help me check this woman out.]
"Despair?" This was the first time Collin had heard such an evaluation for Roxy. He couldn't help but glance at Roxy's back again. She was wearing a black feather coat, covering her thin figure.
"Can't you see?" Dorothy picked up her chopsticks and ate food, "She has experienced traumas. However, she has friends. At the very least, she won't suffer from depression. Even if she is depressed, she won't die alone."
She had experienced traumas...
Collin nodded, but he was surprised that Dorothy could tell that Roxy had experienced traumas in the past.
The Alberton family was not simple.
"Were you taking photos just now?" Collin looked at her earring and asked.
"You mean this?" Dorothy pinched her earring. It was a black strip. When she pressed it, a red dot would flash in the middle and a photo was kept in her phone.
"locator, it can take pictures and send signals," she said faintly, "It can be considered a protective measure for us when we go out."
Collin was about to ask her to delete the photo of Roxy when he saw the phone on the table vibrate. It was Cora.
Collin raised his head to look elsewhere but did not see Cora. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief and answer the phone.
Cora asked, "Where are you?"
"Eating food."
"I know," Cora asked with a smile, "Who are you eating with? Where are you eating?"
Collin looked around suspiciously, "I'm having dinner with my colleague."
"A colleague?" Cora asked, "A new nurse?"
"Mom, come straight to the point," Collin frowned.
"My friend told me that you are eating with a very beautiful girl." Cora said, "I think you don't want to have a girlfriend. But you just don't want to tell me. It's okay. Anyway, bring her back in the Spring Festival."
"I'll go back and tell you." Collin did not say anything in front of Dorothy and hung up the phone.
Dorothy was tasting the dishes on the table. She did not ask any questions after Collin hung up the phone. It seemed that she only wanted to invite Collin to come out for a meal.
Collin still had a plaster on his right hand. He had to rely on his left hand to eat food. The dishes that Dorothy ordered were all used with forks, so it helped him.
After dinner, they returned to the hospital. Many doctors and nurses came to ask him that if the woman was his girlfriend. Collin shook his head, but the others did not believe it. Some doctors happily told him not to forget to share the wedding candy, while the nurses left sadly.
After work, Collin called Cora to explain. Then he was inevitably scolded by her. After hanging up the phone, he remembered Roxy he met in the restaurant today. He called her after hesitating for a long time.
She didn't answer the phone the first time.
Collin called her again, and she didn't answer the phone until the last second.
"Hey..."
It had been a long time since he had heard her voice.
Collin could not help but calculate the time in his heart. It had only been less than a month.
"Doctor Mueller?" She asked in a cracked voice.
"Yes," Collin responded in a low voice.
"What's up?" she asked.
She asked coldly as if they were strangers.
Collin took a deep breath, "It's fine."
"Good night," she said.
Without waiting for Collin to respond, the phone was hung up.
Collin looked at the phone interface and became upset.
After running back, the phone kept ringing. He thought it was from Roxy. He rushed to pick it up and found it was a strange telephone number.
He answered the call.
Dorothy's voice came from the other side.
"Hello? Doctor Mueller, it's me," Dorothy asked, "Do you know that girl?"
"Who?" Collin pretended not to understand.
"The strange girl I was talking about." Dorothy's voice was attractive, "Do you mind if I investigate it privately?"
Collin regretted not asking Dorothy to delete the photo.
"I asked others to investigate her. Eight years ago, she was sentenced to two years in prison for deliberately hurting her stepfather, and she was sued by her mother. She also has a neighbor, a TCM doctor, who was abused by her mother and had no choice but to move house ... She had a bad reputation and a bad mental condition. We found the records of the psychiatric department for two years and ... suicide record."
"Suicide?" Collin's throat was dry.
"Yes, she ate a lot of sleeping pills. Later, the landlord found her and sent her to the hospital. It was timely," Dorothy said, "Of course, she should be good now. But ... Doctor Mueller, do you like her?"
"Why do you think I like her?" Collin could not help but ask.
"Eyes," Dorothy chuckled, "When a men see a woman, his eyes can show his intention."
As Collin lay on the bed, he still considered Dorothy's words.
"Your eyes are showing."
"You like her very much."
