Eve.With time I forgot about his presence, as I felt myself become more comfortable, I listened to the physician speaking and I found myself enjoying the conference.He welcomed the newly employed physicians, emphasized on few rules, and clarify many things associated with the hospital.Then I felt my neck begin to hurt, I had kept it in one place for too long, unconsciously, I turned my head to the side on impulse, and this happened to be the direction of the officials, I pulled back my head, tilting it slightly as I closed my eyes and when I opened them again my eye suddenly landed on him but as if knowing my gaze was on him he turned his head toward my direction and our eyes met. His beautifully silver-grey eyes rested on me and my breath caught.I had only gazed at him for a moment but it seemed that a moment was more than enough time for our gaze to meet, for a second I felt my heart would leap from my chest.I quickly retracted my eyes, feeling my face heat up in embarrassment,
She moved her gaze further upwards, following a pair of long legs, then a pair of powerful arms and broad shoulders, and finally her eye met a pair of beautiful silver-grey eyes, framed by a well-defined face which was expressionless.His gold like blonde hair shined brightly completing his looks.The man standing before her was none other than Alexander Morgan.His silver-grey eyes rest on her, making her feel a little under his gaze, he excluded such a powerful aura that it was just hard not to notice."Are you convenient, sitting on the floor?."He questioned as he stared down at me." Uhm no" She mumbled, cursing inwardly.Suddenly she snapped out of her trance turning her gaze to the side.Of all people to bump into, why him?She searched for her goggles on the floor, and when she finally found them she picked them up, standing up from the ground.Talk about firsthand embarrassment, Oh god, she wished the earth would just open up and swallow her.Suddenly, a masculine but familiar
Maeve."I know this might sound crazy, but I need you to meet him again."I almost choked on the noodles I was eating when these words left Rebekah's lips, and I sent a glare to her."Just hear me out." She began but I cut in, I just wasn't having anything of that."You're joking right?" I questioned, meeting her gaze, although, I wasn't seeing the humor in her words."I'm not, If you'll just let me explain.""Rebekah" I yelled, almost startling her." Can you even hear yourself, you want me to...""He wants to meet you again" Rebekah cuts in.I was speechless for a moment, as many thoughts immediately rushed through my mind."Now, I don't know why, but he wants to meet you, I got a call from a strange number this morning, I didn't know it was him until he introduced himself as Alexander Morgan, the blind date."Why would he want to see me after all the crazy things I had said to him, did he realize I was the woman from the blind date? what if he just wanted to punish me for lying to h
Rebekah," I heard the familiar voice of someone I wasn't expecting to hear when Rebekah opened the door."You're here."Rebekah stepped aside, then my gaze landed on the fellow.Phoebe.She walked into my apartment while carrying a bag in her containing something, but I couldn't identify it."Phoebe," I said in surprise.Just what was she doing here? was it because the director sent her over?"Eve, thank goodness you're okay," She voiced as she walked towards me, giving me a light embrace."Hmm, you looked surprised.""Well I am, I wasn't expecting you." "Well," She started as she collapsed on the sofa" I heard you were sick, so here I am, I also brought recovery gifts"I moved my gaze back to the bag in her hand, wondering what it could be."Eve," She called and I moved my gaze from the bag back to her face."Hmm" I mumbled, meeting her gaze."Thanks for the gift, but you didn't have to... so you heard I was sick, was that from the director.""No" She drawled."I got the news from a nu
I could agree that there were good-looking male doctors in the hospital as the nurses and some female doctors never missed an opportunity to talk about them but I wouldn't emphasize a particular guy as being strikingly handsome and I haven't seen any male doctors wearing a suit, in fact, the only man I had seen today wearing a suit was..."Eve" Pheobe called pulling me from my train of thought."Well?"I couldn't give a reply immediately as realization dawned on me.Spending time with the girls distracted me for a while but, Pheobe just had to bring up a topic about a man in a suit, and I guessed that she was talking about the same man.But I couldn't bring myself to admit knowing who she was talking about. If I ever agreed that he is handsome I would never hear the last of it from Phoebe, she would remind me of it for the rest of my life, so I said the first thing that came to my mind."The Janitor?" I inquired calmly, clearing my throat.Immediately these words left my lips, Rebekah
She walked out of the living room only to return moments later with a face looking pale."What did he say?" Phoebe inquired."I have to go," Rebekah whispered as she fiddled through her pants pocket for her car key."Wait, what happened" I couldn't help but ask as I stood up hastily."My dad got hospitalized because he got into an accident.""""Phoebe and I followed Rebekah to the hospital even when she tried to convince us that it wasn't as serious as we thought it was.She said a nurse had informed her of her father's accident but thankfully he only sustained some minor injuries which he would quickly recover from.As we walked through the hallway I could tell Rebekah was worried despite how hard she tried to hide it, I couldn't blame her, If I were in her shoes I would still feel anxious even after being reassured by the Nurse."You girls should... wait out here," Rebekah whispered with a light sniffle, turning around when we drew close to her father's room."I think my relatives a
Professor Frank" I heard an unfamiliar feminine voice call from the hallway.A beautiful woman surfacing to be in her late twenties, having strikingly beautiful hazel eyes, firmed by a well-defined face with vibrant-looking red hair which she keep down, bouncing gracefully as she walked towards us.She was dressed in a white coat, which meant that she was a doctor but I haven't seen her before."Professor Frank" She called out again as she came to stand beside him."Professor Elena" Professor Frank turned to the side, meeting her gaze."Are you busy?" She asked as she moved her gaze from Professor Frank to Pheobe and me."No, "He replied, causing her to move her gaze from us back to Professor Frank."Oh, is that so? I wouldn't want to disturb you if you're occupied at the moment."She mumbled as she moved her gaze to us."I'm not," "I don't know but I think I've seen you before, do you have a relative here?" She asked, staring directly at me."No," I replied but before I could elucid
Professor Frank called last night to inquire about your health, that was how I got to know."Aunt Anne voiced as she paused slightly."Such a fine young man, don't you think? anyways, had Pheobe informed you yet?""Informed me about what?""I had been meaning to tell you about it, but I just couldn't find the time, but...""But?""It's nothing too important my dear, it's the twin's birthday and I assumed the Pheobe must have told you by now," Aunt Anne cuts in, placing the fleshly baked cupcakes on the table, she then stood erect, as she faced the both of us."The Philips wanted you to babysit the girls today because they needed the girls to be distracted so they could plan the party, but yesterday I informed Mrs. Philips that you already have a job at the hospital and wouldn't be able to do that anymore.""Did they find a new babysitter?" I found myself asking."Not yet but I'm sure they'll figure out something."Aunt Anne relayed as she moved her gaze around my little bedroom, before mo
"Who are you? and why are you here?"Of all people to meet, it had to be this guy.Alexander Morgan.He was the last person I wanted to see at the moment.Up close his face was even more appealing, and his lashes were beautifully long, then there was his nose and his cheekbone.Wait! what the hell was I doing?My wrist was hurting like hell and all I was doing was admiring this crazy man's looks.I forced my gaze to meet his eyes again, thankful I didn't let my gaze travel to his lips.The anger in his eyes depleted slightly when his eyes moved to study my face, and just when I thought the worst was over, his eyes suddenly hardened again, with anger greater than he had earlier.His grip around my wrist tightened, and suddenly he gripped my jaw with his free hand, something I wasn't expecting.Those silver-grey eyes were gleaming, I had never seen such beautiful yet usual eyes, I could see my reflection in them as the grip around my jaw tightened, our faces only inches apart."Why are y
Three days later.I made my way to the local train station after the morning briefing with professor Frank, I could only entrust Nurse Caroline with my patients till I returned from the villa.After spending a few minutes on the train, I finally stepped down, deciding to take a cab for the rest of the journey.Today was my first day, working as a VVIP Physician for a special patient.I heard that the previous Physician was sacked, but I didn't know why, I mean if it paid as much as it did, and wasn't time-consuming, I didn't see why anyone would do anything that might cost her losing the job.I decided not to dwell on the reason he/she was fired and focus on the path in front of me.I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous, I was crazy nervous but I tried to keep my calm.I was relieved when the senator told me that the VVIP patient would be his great-grandson.Nathaniel.It really had been a while since I saw him, I couldn't believe it but sometimes I found myself wondering how he
"We've assigned you to be a special doctor for a VVIP patient.""what do you mean sir?" I couldn't help but ask."Doctor Maeve, this position is not just for any Doctor, you were allowed to handle such a patient because we the board believe in your capabilities, it's just like I said before the patient in discussion is a VVIP patient,"I fell silent for a while as I looked away from the director to gather my thoughts, processing the director's words.If I accepted this offer, wouldn't it hinder me from being the proper doctor to my patients, I didn't want to just be a doctor for the VVIP patients but he did say patient, not patients, so that would mean that it's just one person.Were they using the opportunity presented for commercial benefit?I subconsciously clenched my fist, I didn't want to do this, I'm not the type of Doctor who cared solely about monetary benefits, I didn't do what I did because I wanted to gain anything I did it because it was what I loved doing best."This wil
"I believe you've fulfilled your role as a gentle," I muttered as I tried to restrain my anger."Whoever said I was a gentleman?"He retorted." Are you for real?""Do I love like a joker love? you know what's really suspicious is why you were being chased by those men, perhaps you could share "I was bereft of words, I opened my mouth to protest but I couldn't say a word.He turned his head to me, with his hands folded as he leaned on the monocycle like he had the whole time in the world to spare."Look, if I wanted to hurt you, I would have done that a long time ago."'Right, and you expect me to believe that' I wanted to say to him but I reframed from doing so, I just shifted my gaze away from him, turning my back to him as I fiddled through my pockets for my phone.I wanted to call the police perhaps if he saw how I was serious he would listen to me.But before I could dial the number I heard his voice from behind me."Time to go, sweetheart, I hailed a cab for Ya"I turned around
"There she is get her!" I sprinted through the street in search of a means of escape.Things did not turn out as I planned.With a change in my dress code, I was able t access the VIP suit and I was just close to getting the information I needed when I was unexpectedly caught by a bodyguard.God, why was I so unlucky?Well at least on the bright side I had found valuable information about the book in my custody.Now I was sure it had something to do with all the criminals running illegal dealings in the country, but that was not enough, I couldn't say I didn't have my suspicions at first, but at least now some things have been clarified. But the key, ugh!I don't know where it is, if only it was in my possession I would have a valid lead to my brother, but I can't give up now because he's depending on me."There I see her!"I glanced backward, only to see the group of muscular-looking men, catching up to me.God no, what was I supposed to do if they caught me?I ran through the now
But why did that make me feel slightly annoyed?I finished my lunch and walked out of the cafeteria.That man would be coming today, I had to put out my plan in motion, I didn't have time to think about anything else.""""I don't see him yet," I whispered into my communicator when I glanced around the club surreptitiously."Just give it a minute he'll be there soon, my sources couldn't be wrong, I got information that he would be at the club today,""Alright, I'll give it one more..."I stopped speaking...when I saw the person I was looking for."Wait...I've seen him,""Alright then but Eve, you have to remember not to approach him directly, I know you might be desperate to find... but you know that man is not one to be messed with,""I know... If anyone knows how dangerous he is then that would be me, he, after all, was the last person my brother had an encounter with before his disappearance, trust me I got this""Alright, I'll be waiting."I turned off the communicator as I watche
I walked out of the emergency ward after helping out with some patients today.I stopped in my movements and glanced at my wristwatch, it was 2:00 pm, and I still had some time so I decided on getting something to eat but before I could move from the spot I heard a familiar voice."Excuse me doctor Maeve could I perhaps take a little of your time again"When I turned around I noticed a tall man with blonde hair and brown eyes alongside him was a slim attractive lady with red hair and blue eyes both dressed in white coats." Doctor Evans, Doctor Alexis, is there a problem?""Umm no, it's just that there's a little gathering later amongst some residents, they are friends of mine and I wanted to know if you'd want to be a part of it"" Leave her alone Doctor Evans, isn't she just a disdainful doctor that thinks she's better than the rest of us"." I'm sorry, I don't think I can make it" I stated while gazing at Austin, ignoring the statement of the woman standing beside him." Sure I
wouldn't say it's love at first sight" He voiced with a light chuckle." but you've spiked my curiosity and I want to satisfy that curiosity, what I'm trying to say is that I want to know you, I want to know who you truly are, Doctor Ford,"I couldn't say anything in reply because the bus suddenly came to a halt. I looked ahead and it seemed like an accident occurred."I'm sorry everyone, but as you can see there is an accident up ahead." The bus driver conveyed from where he sat at the front.People on the bus started to murmur, some were worried and hoped no one died in the accident, while others were pissed with the news."Another accident, I hope nobody got but.""Tell me about it, the accident rate these days is becoming alarming.""It's because of all those reckless and crazy drunk drivers, tsk, you can clearly see what society is turning into.""Oh great, as if I wasn't already late for the gathering, now that woman would kill me.""Everyone, calm down please," The driver begge
I wonder what it could be that you're thinking about that has seemed to occupy your thoughts completely." Phoebe wondered out loud while narrowing her gaze at me.I shifted my gaze from her as I searched for my stethoscope, not ready to hear whatever she had concluded in her head."I wonder if it's about a certain secret admirer."I struggled not to roll my eye when these words left her lips.I picked up my stethoscope from the table."I hope you love the flowers, yours sincerely, the secret admirer" Pheobe read, her eye moving along the piece of paper."So tell me who is it?""Look, I don't have the time for any of this" I turned around, walking toward the door.Phoebe followed me out of my office and I couldn't help but wonder if she didn't have anything better to do.She continued talking for a while but I refused to listen to her, I just hoped she wouldn't tell the girls.Why did she remind me so much of Caroline?I made the final turn leading the patient's wards, thankfully along
