Chapter 208

Nate leaned in, trying to catch more of the conversation, when Carter suddenly turned his head and spotted him standing a short distance away.

His brows drew together slightly. “Nate, what are you doing?”

Nate, shameless as ever, showed no trace of embarrassment at being caught eavesdropping.

He smiled and said, “I heard you found Theo, so Kelly and I came to the hospital to check on him.”

“I’m heading back,” she said to Carter. “Don’t forget what you promised. Tomorrow, ten o’clock. Don’t be late.”

Without sparing Nate a glance, she turned and walked off.

Nate let out a dismissive snort and turned to Carter. “Carter, where are you two going tomorrow?”

Carter’s expression was indifferent. “Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t.”

Nate edged closer, a grin lingering on his face. “Wait… don’t tell me you two are going on a date?”
