Maisie didn't have her guard up. She thought it was just a routine check-up, so she immediately agreed. When Daniel approached her to ask what happened, she gave him a brief explanation, and he frowned. Nina had promised to handle Maisie's consultation herself, so why was she delegating it to the nurse?

Furthermore, it wasn't time for the surgery yet, which made him uneasy. But Maisie couldn't help but smile when she saw his nervousness. "What's wrong?" She gently caressed his cheeks. "You seem upset."

"No, I..."

"Are you worried about me?" She smiled. "Don't worry. The nurse said it was just a simple check-up. Dr. Perkins is busy, so she'll be doing it." "Okay." He nodded.

She used her thumbs to smooth out his furrowed brow, making him laugh. He hugged her gently.

"I might have overthought it," he admitted. "I don't know why, but I tend to overthink everything when it comes to you."

"Then think on the positive side," she encouraged, looking into his eyes. "For instance, my stomachache is minor, and the check-up will turn out great!" "That's right!" He hugged her, his feelings mixed. "It will be great!"

Maisie went to the hospital the next day.

The nurse led her to the consultation room, drawing the curtains. The room was dimly lit with the lingering scent of disinfectant.

The nurse put on gloves, wearing an uneasy smile and avoiding eye contact.

Maisie lay down on the bed, taking a few deep breaths to calm herself.

"Please remove your pants, Ms. Squire," the nurse instructed. "Place your feet on the bed. It might... hurt a little. Please bear with it." "What?" Maisie was taken aback, her cheeks blushing. "Didn't Dr. Perkins inform you? I-I'm still single."

The nurse bit her lip. "You're single? Ha! It can't be..."

"It's true," Maisie explained as she sat up. "I'm single. Dr. Perkins didn't do this for me last time. You're making a mistake!"

The nurse thought it was almost time to fetch the medical report when someone suddenly opened the door.

Both the nurse and Maisie were shocked.

It was Nina who entered, with Daniel right behind her.

The nurse turned pale and trembled, only managing to stammer after staring at them for a moment. "D-Dr. Perkins, w-why are you here?"

Nina appeared serious, while Daniel looked cold, exuding an air of authority.

Maisie was bewildered but quickly approached Daniel and asked shyly, "I'm here for a check-up, but why are you here?"

"I'm sorry, Ms. Squire," Nina said with a smile as she looked at her. "It should have been another patient scheduled for a check-up today. She's been married for a couple of years and has two kids. It just so happens that her name is quite similar to yours, which is how my nurse made this mistake. I apologize for the confusion."

She pulled out a medical record with "Maise Squire" written on it. It was easy to mistake with just one letter missing.

"Your check-up will be tomorrow, Ms. Squire, and I'll personally oversee it," Nina assured. "I'll handle all your check-ups, so don't trust anyone else who schedules appointments for you. If there's a check-up needed, I'll contact you directly."
