Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 1527

Lina sighed and looked at Fleur. "Aunt, you..."

"I'm okay," Fleur managed to force a smile, even though she appeared quite unwell. She straightened up, wrapping her shawl around herself. "Oh, that child..." A glint appeared in her eyes.

Only after she mentioned it did everyone notice the wound on Alexander's head.

Nala rushed out immediately, her distress evident as she saw blood dripping from his head. She hugged him tightly, reluctant to let go.

"It doesn't hurt, really!" It was the first time so many people had shown Alexander care, especially a princess hugging him. He suddenly felt self-conscious.

With concern for his sister and the throbbing pain in his head, he couldn't help but grimace. The blow had been severe.

"Get Alexander to the hospital and use my car," Harold chimed in as he approached.

"Take him to the Hamertons' joint hospital," Zuko said, "I'm calling the doctor now. Make sure his wound is tended to and conduct a thorough check-up."

"I'm going with him!" Nala cried out like a baby, still clinging to Alexander. "Brother, I'm going to the hospital with you. Don't be scared!"

He smiled and reached to play with her braid but hesitated with his dirty hands. They were no longer at the abandoned factory or on the way to the suburbs. She was a princess again, but his hands had always been stained. How could he touch her hair?

Soon, Alexander arrived at the joint hospital. Thanks to the mayor's car and Zuko's earlier call, he received the best medical attention, even though his injury was minor.

After the bandaging was done, he rested in a ward that felt like heaven. He had never imagined staying in such a splendid room.

He thought, 'I'd gladly get hurt more often if I could stay here every day.'

His smile was interrupted by a soft voice. "What are you smiling about?"

Turning his head, he saw the little princess and felt secretly delighted.

Nala had insisted on accompanying him to the hospital. Elijah and Kasey couldn't dissuade her, so they followed her lead. Like a grown-up, she requested to care for Alexander in the hospital, saying that she didn't need them.

They were grateful that Alexander had saved Nala and treated him as if he were their own child and shared a similar parenting philosophy. No matter how young their child was, they would respect her decisions.

Thus, they left the ward in unison. They arranged for a nurse to wait outside to ensure Nala wouldn't be alone.

They leaned against the wall in the corridor and made eye contact, sharing an understanding smile.

Since their marriage, they hadn't had many moments of harmony like that.

At that moment, a doctor who appeared to be the department head hurriedly passed by the corridor. After walking a few steps, he turned back, surprised to see them. "Mister and Madam Chriss?"

"Hello, Dr. Sheridan," Elijah greeted, shaking his hand.

When Nala returned safely, they had brought her to the joint hospital for a comprehensive check-up. Dr. Sheridan was in charge of her care.

"Why are you here? Is your daughter here too?"

Elijah pointed toward the ward.

Dr. Sheridan adjusted his glasses, and his expression changed subtly.

"If you have some time, please come to my office. Actually, I've been meaning to talk to you these past few days. Since you're here, I'll tell you now."
