"How soon can you do that please?""As soon as we are done here,"He responded. Liam was going to reduce his bitterness towards him but then the buffalo just had to pick that moment to rest his arm on Ruby's neck, Liam looked away to stop himself from doing something stupid."Thank God you came back, we didn't know how we were going to just leave without helping, it would have been hell leaving this place and everyone behind knowing that they might not get help again, you coming back is so much more than you think it is,"Lewis said and Liam smiled at him."I promised that I will be back and yup, I am back, I could never go away and not come back,""I told you that, Doc, see now?"Sara chipped in and Liam smiled."Thank you for believing in me guys I really appreciate it and I thank you for everything that you have been doing and are still doing to help,"Liam said looking at all their faces, these people, they became people he had so much respect for, even though their job here was h
Ruby walked out of her office feeling stupid, did she really think Liam think highly of her? The jokes were on her for thinking he will take her opinion into consideration, but even if what she said didn't really make that much sense, he still shouldn't have dismissed her like that, like she didn't know what she was saying, it made her feel so less of herself, he listened to the guys talk and even thanked them for their suggestions but when she said something, he concluded that she was overthinking it."Let it go, Ruby, just let it go,"She told herself as she knocked on the nurse's room."Come on in,"She heard Emily's voice from inside, her voice reminded her of Liam being jealous of Nathan, okay maybe she had overthought that too and it was just happening in her head, she really need to keep her fucked up emotions in check, especially around Liam, they can be a team without crossing each other's part, it would do her good to expect anything."I came to get Kristen for her daddy,"R
"Sara? I thought you went to sleep already? What is it?"She asked Sara who stood at her door, she seemed to be teased which got Ruby worried, they didn't have any severe cases right now aside from the kids with holes in their hearts but they are both doing well, at least they were."What's going on Sara?""There are men in the hospital with guns, they want to see the head,"She revealed."Not again, don't tell me those idiots are back again,"She complained as she stepped out of her office and angrily walked towards the reception area, God damn if those idiots men that wanted Annette's dead body are back again to demand for it, she was going to pour them water."Doc, it's not the same men, these ones are different, I went to get paracetamol because I was having a headache and found them talking with Jane who was doing night duties,"Sara revealed making Ruby wonder who these new men were, it didn't take her long to figure out because she saw them standing close to Jane who was lookin
Liam followed behind Ruby, he couldn't deny that he felt hurt by how she reacted and shut him up but he still understood her, she was under a lot of pressure and those crazy men appearing in front of her had broken her resolve."You could have been a little nicer out there, I was just trying to help,"He said when he entered her office, she glared at him."I didn't ask for your help, I was doing pretty fine, just do your job and leave me alone, don't interfere,"She yelled at him."Why are you mad at me Ruby? I can't remember doing anything wrong,""I don't answer to you Liam, just know your place, I am willing to work with you but don't fucking start telling him to do my job,"She let out."I never told you how to do your job, what are you even saying?""I have said my mind, just leave me alone,"She responded. Liam didn't know what he did to make her so angry, but he didn't want to make it worst, or maybe he knew, he was back here and touching her again, he should know already that
"I saw the wave you are moving, you even got a prince on your side, wow, I just say I am impressed, you are doing great,"Luca said and Liam rolled his ears, he hasn't really checked the outcome of the exposure again since and decided that he would do it right after he drops this call with Luca."Thanks, so why did you call me? Do you want to ask me to leave again? I won't, even mom gave her approval,"He said."No, that's not it, I want to help, I will like to help if you will have me,"It was so rare to see Luca backtracking, that he was doing it right now only goes to show that Liam was going something right, he needed all the help he could get and Luca would do a good job at the casino so yup, he was going to forgive him for being a chicken."Luca, now you finally agree that we can do this? Wow, I must say that I am disappointed a lot in you in many ways but since you want to help again, then it is all good, you can be useful to me,"Liam replied. He needed all the help he could g
Ruby waited for Liam to call her back but he didn't, it was getting to over two hours since she last called him and he wasn't back yet, Nathan has gone to look for her at the supermarket and she wasn't there, the guys even looked for her around the supermarket area, asked the guy who sells there but no one had seen her, now they were waiting for Liam to come around before they know the next steps to take, if only he would get here fast and maybe bring her with him, she would be so grateful."Liam,"She called when she saw him walking into the hospital with no Emily, her heart sank, Nathan who had been seated jumped up in that moment walking out if the hospital."Nathan, please come back, Nathan,"She called but he wasn't listening."Please don't let him leave the hospital,"She said to the others and they tried to hold him in place, he wasn't having it and was yelling at them to let him go but she told them not to."Emily is still not back Liam, I am getting worried, her number is not
"Liam, you can speak,"She finally said and he nodded."I will like to interview the doctors and nurses too if that's not a problem with you guys, and the pharmacist and the scientist too please,"He said."If you guys agree?"Ruby asked her team as she couldn't speak for them, she could only talk for herself and she was going to let him interview her."Yes, we will, right guys?"Reuben asked pulling his oldest member of the team card, the other chorused a yes."Okay, Liam you have yourself a deal with us, when do you want to do it?"She asked as she finished what she was doing and stood up, Nathan quickly took her place and held on to his woman, it kind of made Ruby feel a little, okay not a little, it made her feel so jealous, she looked away and her eyes collided with Liam's, she moved them immediately."Okay, we are done here, and please let's keep the hospital front door short from now on, except you guys are here,"She said."Okay, that's it, I will be in my office if anyone nee
Liam lead her to Ruby's office, that was the only place he could safely talk to her now, with how filled up the hospital was."You had something to tell me?"He said starting the conversation flow, she looked like she changed her mind, he didn't bother to urge her on and just waited for her to say it when she is ready."I saw you doing interviews with the others that were newly added to this place, I must say, those people are lucky because they have people like you here for them, we didn't, I got raped the first night I got here,"She revealed. She said it so suddenly that it had come as a huge shock to him."Oh my God, I, fuck! That's so horrible,"He said and she smiled bitterly."Yeah, it was but don't worry about me, it was over twelve or maybe Fifteen years ago, I don't even think of that as anything anymore,"She said and Liam remained quiet, she had barely said a word to him when he had questioned her before he went to the city but now she was just telling him things, he didn'
