Chapter 227: Three Adorable Lucky Charms

She would be lying if she said that she was not scared.

Everybody has an instinct for survival and feels fear when in danger.

But the prospect of her children getting hurt scared her more than her being wounded.

Even Yvonne herself had not bargained on her lunging at them without a second thought.

She thought that the blade would cut her open, but unexpectedly, the anticipated pain did not come.

She slowly opened her eyes only to be greeted by the sight of the three dumbfounded boys.

The three boys were all staring over her back, open-mouthed, their facial expressions identical.

Yvonne turned her head and saw the familiar figure of the man.

Zachary instantly materialized behind her like a god. He grabbed the blade with his hand, and blood was gushing out of the cut in his palm, but he protected them from the knife!

The next second, Zachary snorted coldly and threw the knife away!

"You’re all gonna die here!" The madman, unreconciled to the situation, spun around with the intention to retrieve his knife.

But he had gone only a couple of steps when Zachary kicked him over!

Zachary scorned to even glance at people like him, but now that he had intervened, he felt obliged to teach this scum a hard lesson.

"Your inability to restrain your obsession with gambling means you’re useless; your reluctance to pay your parents’ medical bills means you’re unfilial; squandering your wife’s dowry and bringing her here to swindle money means you’re despicable.

"And attempting to hurt my wife and children is a crime."

With that, Zachary tossed an apathetic glance at the security guards who had just hurried over to the scene.

He sneered, "Doctors are snatching lives from Death every day, and yet they have to worry about their own safety at all times. What an irony."

Having finished speaking, he gave the man another kick which sent the latter rolling towards the security guards.

All the security guards broke out in a cold sweat, knowing that they were late.

"Yes, yes. There’s no telling what might’ve happened were it not for Mr. Leinster and the three gentlemen."

If it weren’t for the fact that the three boys had distracted the man, and Zachary and Yvonne had stopped the attack in a timely manner, another gory, nationally sensational patient-doctor dispute might have happened.

Of course, though no one was seriously injured, the scene just now had shocked many people.

Someone had recorded a video of the whole thing and posted it online, deploring and condemning such vile practice.

...

Having noticed Zachary’s bleeding hand, Yvonne frowned and held his wrist.

"The cut in your hand is very deep."

Looking at her apprehensive hand, Zachary could not help but run his fingers across her brows, as if unknit them.

"It’s just a minor injury."

After saying that, he looked at the three children again and said seriously, "The next time you’re in such a situation, do not make your move to help. You’re still children, and children are supposed to ask adults for help instead of putting themselves in danger!"

Obviously, Zachary was dissatisfied with the three boys’ actions.

Jimmy was the first to step out. "Dad, this time around it’s my fault! Andy and Tommy were trying to protect me!"

Tommy’s eyes roved once around their sockets, but he said nothing. Andy, however, mumbled, "I couldn’t just stand by and watch my little brother being bullied. Those adults were looking on. If we didn’t stick up for the doctors, who would?"

Unexpectedly, Andy who was always the most soft-hearted could be pretty righteous when he needed to be.

Yvonne, who usually doted on Andy the most, stroked his head.

"Dad is just worried about you guys. Well, you did nothing wrong, but you need to learn to protect yourselves, understand?"

...

Andy, a sentimental boy, was immediately cheered up by his mother’s words.

Though he was a boy, his fair-skinned dainty face made him as pretty as a doll.

"I see. Actually, I can understand all that. If we hadn’t acted impulsively, Dad wouldn’t have got wounded, and Mom wouldn’t have nearly got seriously injured. We feel rather guilty."

"I’m glad you’ve realized it," Zachary said, fingering Anderson’s nose.

He really couldn’t bring himself to lose his temper with Anderson. Every time he wanted to scold him, the sight of the boy’s adorable face always dissolved his anger.

"Dad, you should go have that cut dressed right away!" said Tommy apprehensively. "My big brother told me wounds would get infected unless you dress them in a timely manner!"

On hearing it, Yvonne drew Zachary towards the surgical department.

The surgical department.

After what happened just now, Zachary didn’t dare let his wife and sons go for a check-up unaccompanied.

He decided to bandage his wound first and then take the three boys to have a check-up.

After the five of them arrived at the surgical department, Yvonne glanced at the crowd and said, "You three stay here with your father. I’ll go make an appointment."

"Okay, Mom. If anybody else comes here to kick up a stink, do not get involved!" Tommy said, imitating Zachary’s tone of voice.

Yvonne gave his nose a squeeze and said, "I know. Do you think Mommy is as silly as Jimmy?"

Jimmy giggled at the tease.

"If anybody dares do you harm, I’ll kick their ass as father did to that man just now!" said Jimmy, wielding his fists in deadly earnest with the air of a medieval knight. The remaining anger on his face made him look like a gladiator.

"Well, I gotta go. I’ll be back soon!"

Unexpectedly, Yvonne had just gone a couple of paces when someone became restless.

The surgical department was always the busiest department, so there were a lot of nurses here.

These nurses had heard a moment ago that someone had made a scene downstairs demanding compensation. They were all scared. Afterward, it was said that a very handsome man had grabbed the man’s knife with his bare hands, and that the handsome man had not only saved his children but also overpowered the thug and

protected the doctors and nurses.

Moreover, judging from the photos taken by passers-by, that man’s charm was indeed matchless!

On top of that, his sons were extremely cute triplets!

Those children were both intelligent and endearing.

Medical staff in the surgical department had been discussing only a short while ago whether the man, whose hand was wounded, would bring his children over here to get his cut dressed. If he came, they would be able to feast their eyes on him.

And now, looking at the exceptionally handsome man and the three adorable children, the nurses instantly came to know that it was him. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

At the sight of Zachary, a probationary nurse found her heart fluttering and promptly trotted up to him.

"Y - You’re the one who just overpowered the ruffian making trouble downstairs, right?! Come with me. I’ll dress your wound!"

Zachary glanced at her, gave a nonchalant "um" and went with her, the three boys following in his wake.

Having finished speaking, the nurse led Zachary to a large VIP room.

"Our director said that you’re an honored guest of all medical staff in this hospital, that if you come here to have your wound dressed, we’re to provide you with the best service for free!"

After saying that, the nurse ushered Zachary and the three boys into the lounge of a suite and even turned on the TV for the three boys.

"This is the best ward in our hospital, Mr. Leinster. Your kids may watch TV and have some rest while I bandage your wound."

Zachary’s attitude was apathetic from start to finish.

He was just wondering when Yvonne would be back.

...

But the other woman was thinking about something else.

Zachary Leinster was the hero of the hospital.

Moreover, he was so handsome!

Many nurses had fallen prey to his charm.

Meanwhile, Yvonne was still waiting to get an appointment, unaware that the one in charge of the hospital had said that if Zachary came to have his wound dressed, he didn’t have to pay any of the medical bills or make an appointment.

Yvonne had not figured out where she could make an appointment yet. She was weaving her way through the crowds and didn’t hear the ringtone of the call from Zachary.

In the lounge of the ward.

The three children turned on the TV and soon found a science fiction film which was very popular recently.

The three children immediately sat down side by side to watch TV.

At this moment, the young nurse came back with a medical kit in her hand.

She smiled sweetly, "Mr. Leinster, I specially brought you the best medicine in this hospital. It’ll prevent your wound from leaving a scar. Are you afraid of pain? I-"

Before the young nurse could finish her sentence, Zachary sitting on the sofa spoke in a deep voice.

"Where is the registration office of your hospital? Is it far away?"

"Huh?"

The nurse was momentarily confused by his interruption, but soon she smiled.

"The registration office is not far away, Mr. Leinster. You did this hospital a great favor, so you don’t need to make an appointment!"

Naturally, Zachary was not worried about how to make an appointment. He was wondering why Yvonne was still not back.

But at this moment, the young nurse put the medical kit down onto the floor beside his feet and squatted down!

The nurse’s heart was hammering madly!

She reached out her hand to touch Zachary’s. Though she had received some training when in medical school and been told that all patients were the same, and that nurses should focus on their duty when working, but she still could not help but think of all kinds of things.

At first, Zachary didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary.

But when the nurse began to dress his wound and apply ointment to it, she subconsciously rubbed her little finger against his palm and deliberately pulled her nurse’s uniform lower to reveal her cleavage.

He could divine what this woman was trying to do without even looking at her face.

These years, with the five children in the family, how firm and steady his marital bonding with Yvonne was no secret to anybody, and rarely had any audacious women shown up to have their hearts broken, but before he married Yvonne, and before the birth of the five children, he had met many such immoral girls.

He had long been used to this kind of tricks!

"Get out."

The young nurse, who was still immersed in her fantasy, was startled by his sudden words and the medicine dropped from her hand.

"M - M - Mr. Leinster, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to."

Zachary couldn’t even be bothered to give her another glance, let alone say another word to her.

Zachary rose to his feet, intending to take the three boys out of the room. "Mr. Leinster!"

Unexpectedly, the young nurse behind him called out to him as though having been possessed by something.

"Mr. Leinster, I really like you!

"Although I am still an intern, I really admire people like you who are willing to stick up for doctors and nurses!

"I... I ... Maybe I am still young, and I don’t have enough sense of propriety, but I’m only in my twenties... I’m several years younger than your wife...

"But I think I should have no misgivings about chasing after the one I have feelings for! You see, you’re wounded, but your wife is not even here to keep you company, let alone dress your wound. If you were my husband, I would’ve been terribly anxious!"

On hearing her words, Zachary came to know she was a scheming slut.

She was not only scheming but also taking advantage of her relatively young age to play the victim.

She thought that Zachary had been ignoring all other women after marrying Yvonne who was many years his junior because he preferred women much younger than him.
