Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 403

The next day. Frank dropped his younger sister off at the hospital before heading to the port as usual. His driving skills surpassed those of Tom, which allowed Rose to laze in bed for a few extra minutes.

She woke up with the alarm clock.

She brushed her teeth and got dressed within the designated time. She continued to be the Queen of Punctuality and always hit her mark every day.

After becoming pregnant. Natalie’s surgical cases decreased significantly. Naturally, she understood the reason. Not only had her caseload reduced, but even Sherri also had fewer cases.

After lunch, the three of them were hiding in their office, eating salads. Natalie was carefully mixing the veggie with the sauce. At one point, Trevon asked her what she was doing. She replied with a message, informing him that she was replenishing her veggie intake.

Music was playing in the office.

Of course, Rose was the one playing the music. Her reason was that she wanted to expose the baby to good music in advance.

Rose’s playlist consisted of quite pleasant songs, and everyone was happy to listen.

Just as everyone was enjoying their salad, a knock on the door interrupted the serene atmosphere. A doctor entered, looking somewhat familiar, but after thinking for a while, they still couldn’t remember who he was.

Then, Natalie recognized him. It was their department’s golden boy. His parents were professors, and he was a graduate

student. “Hi, Dr. Archer.”

Calvin Archer wore black glasses, and one could tell from the thick lenses that he had a pretty high level of

short-sightedness. He was around 5.9 feet tall, not particularly tall or thin, and had a rather handsome appearance. He was holding a bouquet.

He replied, “Dr. Foster, you’re here too?”

Natalie nodded politely in response, acknowledging him. She then observed Calvin’s next move. Ever since he entered the room, his gaze had been fixated on Rose. It seemed he had a purpose in mind.

Natalie noticed his shyness and glanced at the flowers in his hands. “Do you need some space for these?”

Rose caught a whiff of something different and narrowed her eyes at Natalie. She shook her head slightly and then turned her attention to Calvin. “Are you looking for me?”

This was her consultation room. He must be here for her.

Calvin took a few steps forward, extending the bouquet towards Rose. He said earnestly, “Dr. Roberts, I’ve been observing you for a long time. I notice you’re always in a hurry, but you’re also very adorable. I want to pursue you
