Chapter 532 Noah Is Quite Different From What Chloe Imagined
“Appearances can be deceiving. One should never judge a book by its cover. There’s one young girl in my office who perfectly exemplifies this. At first glance, she appears petite and adorable. She can’t even open a jar. But behind that facade lies a dark and disturbing side. She’s secretly a cat abuser. Can you believe it?”
Emily could not stop gossiping once she started, going on and on without end. However, Chloe had too much on her mind and could not focus. Coincidentally, someone from the office came to see her, so she had to hang up.
In the herbal store of Central Hospital, Frederick was surprised to see Noah arriving alone. ” Mr. Noah? What brings you here today?”
“Dr. Frederick, I’ve been having trouble sleeping recently. Would you mind doing a check-up on me please?” Noah politely asked while glancing around the room.
The waiting area was crowded with other patients.
“Sure, but you’ll have to wait. I have other patients to attend to first,” Frederick replied.
“Of course, I have no intention of cutting in line,” Noah replied with a gentle smile. He curiously observed the herbs cabinet in front of him and asked, “May I take a look around?”
“Feel free, Mr. Noah. My place is small, and I hope you don’t mind it. Go ahead and take a stroll,” Frederick said.
Noah walked up to the herb cabinet, observing the names written on each drawer while keeping an eye on his surroundings from the corner of his eye. Seizing the opportunity when no one was paying attention, he discreetly headed to the backyard where the herbal blends. were being prepared.
In the backyard, there was only one assistant busy with the herb preparation.
“I’ve already spoken with Dr. Frederick. I’m just taking a walk out of boredom. Carry on with your work,” Noah said to the assistant.
“Mmm, sure,” the assistant replied.
Noah wandered around the yard, and eventually, his gaze settled on bags of herbs placed on a table. “These are the finished herbal blends?” he inquired.
The assistant answered, “No, those are the ones brought in from outside for analysis.”
A flicker of contemplation crossed Noah’s eyes as he nodded thoughtfully. At that moment, Frederick called on the assistant, leaving only Noah in the backyard.
He watched the assistant walk away. Without wasting a moment, he quickly took out a pre-
prepared packet of herbs and deftly switched it with the maternity herbal blend on the table.
After the earlier patients left, it was finally Noah’s turn. Frederick asked, “Besides Insomnia, do you have any other discomforts?”
“Nothing else. Just prepare me some calming and sleep-inducing herbs,” Noah sald.
“Aren’t you going to let me do a check-up on you?” Frederick asked.
“It’s getting late. I’ll come back next time,” Noah replied.
The doctor nodded and went to the herb cabinet to fetch the requested herbs. As his gaze fell upon Noah’s hair, he furrowed his brows and asked, “When did you start getting white hair?”
Noah was taken aback. “I forgot exactly when, but I think it was this year.”
“You should find some time to go to the hospital for a full-body check-up, including X-rays of all your body parts.”
Noah casually touched his hair and smiled nonchalantly. “I think the stress from my studies and the frequent late nights might be the cause.”
Frederick looked at him deeply and advised, “It’s better to get it checked.”
It was eleven in the morning when Noah arrived at Chloe’s office. After enduring several agonizing hours, she bolted up from her chair when she saw him and scrutinized him from
head to toe.
“You really went?”
“Yeap,” Noah replied.
“… And you weren’t caught?”
Noah handed her the maternity herbal blend from his backpack and said in a relaxed tone, “It was a piece of cake.”
Chloe’s eyes sparkled, and a look of admiration appeared on her face as she raised her thumb in praise. “You’re amazing!”
