Chapter 668 Charlie replied, “Wherever Miss Witch goes, the place flourishes.”
Immediately, Meredith pinched his leg to warn him.
Charlie inhaled sharply. “Ouch…” “Shut your mouth then.”
The female doctor that was ‘abandoned’ by Charlie said purposely, “Doctor Meredith, I’m guessing that our patient
had never seen you without your mask and that is why he’s flirting with you. Why not remove your mask? I’m sure
that will shut him up.”

Meredith felt slightly humiliated.
Before she could even say anything, the smile on Charlie’s face faded away, and said to the female doctor, “I’ve
seen her face before, thank you for your reminder.”

The female doctor was stunned and chuckled dryly, “Oh, I didn’t know that you know each other.”
Unfazed, Meredith explained, “He is a friend of mine and he’s always this bubbly and chatty. He can be rude
sometimes. Please forgive him, Doctor Halsey.”
Meredith did not wish to be caught up in any gossip on her first day of work. After all, Charlie was a good-looking lad
and it was easy for people to misunderstand.
After Doctor Halsey left, Meredith continued treating Charlie’s wound. She then moved him into a ward. Seeing how
Meredith was about to leave, Charlie said, “I want to drink water.”
Meredith came to a stop in her steps. Feeling skeptical, she asked, “Don’t you have any friends or family? Have you
informed them?”
“I can’t seem to get hold of them.”
“But the staff here are all busy. We wouldn’t have the time to cater to you only.”
“I don’t need you to cater to me. I just need your help to get me a glass of water.”
Meredith was at loss for words. Left with no choice, she went to get him a glass of water.

Taking the glass from Meredith, Charlie smiled. “Thank you.”
Looking at the bright smile on his face, Meredith pulled a chair and sat down next to his bed.” Say, kiddo, since I’ve
got off work. Let’s have a chat, shall we?”
“Sure.” Hearing that Meredith wanted to chat with him, Charlie’s face lit up. He even asked, “. Are you hungry?
Should we order some food?”
“It’s alright. I’ll eat at home.”
“But I’m hungry.”
Speechless, Meredith said, “Order some take outs then.”
Meredith then took a look at his charts and asked, “Charlie Larson, I wanted to know what it is
that you’re trying to do. Is it because I look ‘special’ from the rest and you think that it is fun and interesting?”
She was reminded of the pervert patron Mister Quinn who too had an obsession with girls with disabilities

Charlie though looked serious. “I thought I’ve made it clear that I am pursuing you?”
Charlie took a glance at the tag hanging from her neck. “I didn’t expect to be so lucky today. Not only did I get to
know about your job, but I even got to know your name.” Meredith replied, “And I’ve made it clear that I have a
four-year-old daughter.” “It’s okay. I’m willing to be a stepfather.” Meredith responded, “And you’re simply assuming
that her father is dead?”
“Is he…not?”
Very carefully, Charlie asked, “If he’s still alive, then why do you always look sad and gloomy?
Meredith felt as if she could not continue the conversation with him anymore.
“Who said that I’m unhappy?” “I see it on your face.” Charlie flashed a grin at him and said, “I’ll believe you if you
bring me to see him.”
Inwardly, Meredith thought to herself, ‘Josiah might probably kill you on the spot.’
She had no plans of letting anyone know about her relationship with Josiah. Hence, she would never let Charlie
meet Josiah.
