Doted by My Billionaire Husband Chapter 10
In an old apartment in the suburbs, the pervasive smell of disinfectant and strong tobacco in the air made Isabella involuntarily frown. She lightly pressed her index finger to the tip of her nose to barely suppress the discomfort in her stomach.In the dim light, Isabella saw a young man sitting in a wheelchair, who had a similar appearance to Oliver. Unlike his brother's modest and refined demeanor, the young man was more desolate and gloomy.The brown medicinal soup spilled all over the floor next to the wheelchair and the almost powdered ceramic shards seemed to silently declare the patient's rage.Although Oliver had given her a heads-up on the way, Isabella still couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine.Oliver took a step forward, gently calling out, "Samuel..."Hearing the sound, Samuel Arnot across the room slowly raised his head. It was as if a switch had been flipped, his eyes instantly turned blood red. He was like a fierce leopard, staring intently at the visitor. It

Isabella took a step back.Just then, a warm and gentle hand wrapped around her shoulder, swiftly turning her and pressing her against the wall. At the same time, another hand firmly supported the back of her head, preventing it from hitting the wall.The man made a "shh" gesture with his lips. Then, he tilted his head and leaned forward, but stopped just as he was about to touch her lips.Isabella pursed her lips tightly, holding her breath. Luckily, she didn't scream out for she saw a familiar face.They were so close that they could hear each other's intertwined breaths, and a blush quickly spread across Isabella's cheeks.She wanted to turn her face, but the back of her head was tightly gripped by the man's hand. She could only flutter her long eyelashes, trying hard to suppress the panic in her heart.Joseph felt it was adorable.The bodyguard at the entrance of the villa took a few steps. He immediately showed a disdainful yet envious expression upon realizing that it was a lovi

Katherine avoided his gaze and said, "I am afraid Joe will misunderstand.""Joe instructed me to take good care of you before he left..."Katherine's face changed slightly, "Oh, really? He must feel more at ease if his childhood buddy takes care of me."Seeing her play dumb, Nathan suppressed the pain in his heart and said, "Kathy, you know my feelings for you..."Katherine coldly interrupted him, "But I only love Joe.""Joseph doesn't like you!""Nathan!""..."Afterward, there was a moment of silence in the ward.Later, as if he realized his audacity, Nathan's tone softened slightly. "I'm sorry."Katherine turned her head slightly and spoke coldly, "I'm tired. Please leave."Nathan could only say helplessly, "Alright, I'll leave now. Have a good rest."Just as he reached the door, he stopped and said earnestly, "You said that no matter whether Joe likes you or not, you won't give up. Well, now I'm telling you, I'm the same. I won't give up."After saying that, he turned around and l

Achoo!Jasmine shivered.She glanced at the central air conditioning in the living room. Perhaps because the temperature was set too low?Although she thought so, she felt somewhat uneasy.She glanced at the room upstairs and confirmed once again, "Mom, do we really have to do this? Maybe we should just forget it. I'm afraid..."Amanda opposite her remained silent and quietly took out her phone to show Jasmine.Jasmine was shocked. "Where did it come from?!"It was a photo of her and Bruno embracing and kissing in the elevator at Glory Villas.Amanda put away her phone and said, "That bitch somehow managed to get it, probably from Joseph. So, Jasmine, I'm doing this for your own good. We need to nip this in the bud before things get complicated. With this assurance, even if she spills the beans later, we won't be afraid.""But I still worry that Bruno will eventually find out..." Jasmine twisted her fingers, still hesitating.Amanda fiercely poked Jasmine's forehead and gritted her te

"Who are you?""...""How do you know about the whereabouts of Ruth?""..."The masked man in black remained silent while Isabella appeared unusually calm.She kept asking questions to distract the other person's attention while quietly unzipping her bag.After a moment, she held a silver needle in her hand."Tell me, where is Ruth?!"The man in black swiftly drew out a shiny dagger from behind and without hesitation, stabbed it towards her face.At the critical moment, Isabella aimed at the fingertip of the man's right hand and pricked it with the needle.With a crisp sound, the dagger fell to the ground.It fell right into a narrow and elongated crack.That was close!The man in black kept blowing on his pricked finger. It seemed that it hurt a lot.Isabella didn't have time to catch her breath.She aimed at the man's shoulder this time.The man in black seemed aware of it.He was only touched by the needle and quickly dodged to the side.A burst of car horns sounded timely.It was

Three people pulling inside the ward immediately froze.Nathan at the door had a gloomy face, glaring at Isabella. He clearly misunderstood her."I...""Dr. Austin, you misunderstood. Ms. Watson was..."In a fit of anger, Nathan paid no attention to their explanations. He pushed his glasses up and grabbed Isabella's slender arm, pulling her out forcefully.The weak Isabella was almost thrown against the wall.Isabella was hurt by him and also got angry. She shouted, "Nathan, let go of me!"Last time at the Parker's house, Isabella saw him being gentle and refined. And he was Joseph's buddy. Therefore, she thought he was a gentleman like Oliver. She didn't expect him to be so rude and unreasonable."It's good that you know me. Ms. Watson, I don't care what your intentions are for getting close to Joe, but please don't hurt the innocent."Isabella naturally understood who the innocent person he was referring to.However, she deliberately said, "Are you worried?""Yes, Joe is my bro, so

At this time, the lights shone, and the streets were bustling with pedestrians. The exciting nightlife of New York also began, but it was not as lively as in the Night Bar.Under the dizzying lights, a group of men and women danced on the dance floor, fueled by the restless music and alcohol.Isabella couldn't help but have a headache.She squeezed her way to the bar and asked, "Hello, please help me check the private room that Helen Payten booked.""Okay, Miss, it's 305."Isabella hated to keep others waiting and arrived earlier.During the wait, Isabella felt a bit bored and took out the silver needle from her bag. She noticed faint traces of blood on the tip.It turned out that the second attack made the person bleed.Isabella was in a better mood.Wait a minute! The area that was being pricked was...Just as she was thinking, a polite waiter knocked and came in."Miss, here is your drink.""I didn't order any drinks...""It's complimentary.""Oh, thank you. Just put it there."She

The next second, Isabella collapsed onto the nearby sofa. Her consciousness started to blur.Her fair face was flushed, and her smooth forehead was covered in tiny beads of sweat.She instinctively tugged at her collar, hoping to let the cool air dispel the burning sensation inside her body.Seeing that, Bruno instantly realized that she had been drugged."Bella, hang in there. I'll go find someone to help take you to the hospital!"Just as he arrived at the door, a wicked thought flashed through Bruno's mind. He slowly released his hand from the doorknob and proceeded to lock it. He then turned around and walked toward Isabella.Isabella felt a strange look in his eyes. Her heart skipped a beat."Bruno, what... what are you doing?! Don't you dare!"Bruno ignored her warning, squatting beside the sofa, his fingers tracing over her thin and fair face."Bella, we have been together for so long. It's time for me to have you...""Bruno... you... bastard!"At that moment, it seemed like so

Isabella arrived at the Arnot's house.She could hardly contain her excitement as she spoke, "Did he really say that?"Even Oliver, who always spoke softly and gently, was somewhat agitated at this moment."Yes, he took the initiative to have the caregiver ask me who was playing the piano that day, and he said he wanted to meet you."Isabella's eyes sparkled as she thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Arnot, just to be safe, I think I should go in alone.""Alright, Cedric and I will be in the living room. Call us if you need anything.""Okay."The door was slightly ajar. Isabella knocked gently, but there was no response from inside.She tried to push open a crack and peered in through it. It was still the same dim light, creepy and terrifying."Who?"Isabella was startled by the sudden noise, hastily pointing at the piano that had been moved to the door, and then at herself, implying that she was the one who had played it last time."Do you also like

Isabella and Dylan naturally didn't know what happened at the nurse's station.First, they arrived at the Dean's office on the third floor. The Dean asked Dylan to intern with Isabella in the emergency department since they two knew each other.Sheldon reacted indifferently to Dylan's arrival. After all, there were many interns in the department every year, most of whom would leave after a while, so there was nothing to fuss about.Sarah was dissatisfied with the department having new people for two consecutive days. But she had been avoiding Isabella's gaze since yesterday. Seeing that Dylan was brought by Isabella, Sarah didn't say anything.Only Lydia, who was sitting next to Isabella, had been sneaking glances at Dylan from the moment he walked in.She didn't even notice that Dylan came to greet her.Isabella reminded her, and only then did she bite her lip and blushingly wave at him.After Dylan left, she immediately leaned in and whispered into Isabella's

Jasmine was about to go upstairs, "I'll go take a look!"Amanda grabbed her with a look of anticipation on her face, "Don't go. Isabella might anger your father again. Let it go. It would be great if your father could teach her a lesson..."At that time, the study on the second floor was littered with shards of glass, and Isabella's smooth instep was covered in tea water. Fortunately, the tea was not very hot.But even so, her delicate skin quickly turned red.Isabella silently stared ahead, her face expressionless.George, sitting behind the table, was panting heavily, his chest heaving."Say it again!""I want the key to the backyard iron gate," Isabella repeated calmly.George suppressed his anger, "Didn't I say that no one but me could enter the backyard!""Why?"With another loud smack, George slammed his hand on the table, "No reason! I call the shots here!"Isabella remained composed, "There are my mother's relics inside. I want to go..."G

Isabella hesitated for a moment and gently held his fingers.Perhaps due to his youthful vigor, even Dylan's fingers were warm. In contrast, Isabella's hand was as cold as ice.Isabella looked up and met Dylan's gaze. She felt embarrassed and quickly withdrew her hand."Alright, alright, everyone, take a seat," Amanda called out.At the dinner table, George was talking about his study trip to Canada, while Amanda and Jasmine occasionally chimed in with hearty laughter. The three looked like a happy family.In contrast, Isabella on the side seemed like an outsider.Dylan, sitting across from her, had been fixing his intense gaze on her. However, Isabella focused on her meal and failed to meet his eyes."Well, I started working at Sacred Heart Hospital..." Isabella slowly said, taking advantage of George's pause."What? That bitch got a job, and at the best hospital in the city, no less!" Amanda wondered while grinding her teeth in resentment. She stared at her

In the evening, as soon as Isabella entered the door, she saw Amanda and Jasmine sitting on the sofa and chatting.Amanda, who was in high spirits, immediately changed her expression when she saw Isabella come in."You're back? I thought you would never step through this door again."When she received the message from Frank, Isabella was initially hesitant. But then she thought that Amanda intended to drive her out of the Watson family. If she didn't come back, it would be exactly what Amanda wanted.So, she headed straight to the Watson's place after she got off work.Isabella sat down and said, "This is my home. Why can't I come back?""Oh, it's only been a few days, and you've become so tough? Don't think that just because you have someone backing you up, I would be afraid of you.""I can forget about what you did to Ruth for now, but if you dare to touch her again in the future, I will not let you go."Isabella sternly warned.She wouldn't allow anyone

Sarah glanced at her and mocked, "Do you think you can handle it? Treating illnesses isn't child's play. Traditional medicine is nothing more than a trick to fool the layman. What if something goes wrong later? If you worsen her condition, can you bear that responsibility?"Sarah's words worked. Sheldon looked serious.Isabella pondered and then said sincerely, "If anything goes wrong, I'll take responsibility. It won't affect the department or the hospital. Dr. Wilson, let me give it a try."Thinking that the talent valued by the board of directors should not be flakey, Sheldon nodded.Isabella took out a special tool from the drawer and began to treat the little girl skillfully and intently.About two or three minutes later, she felt the little girl's forehead. It didn't seem so hot. She then nodded to Lydia, who was standing behind her with a new thermometer.Sarah was waiting to see Isabella's failure, but the smug look on her face gradually disappeared as she

Isabella finally figured out the whole story.One of the doctors who had attended the interview that day had also passed by the intersection where William had collapsed. However, in a rush for the interview, he had merely glanced at William on the ground before moving on.How could someone who valued fame and wealth over life be worthy of becoming a doctor? Naturally, he could not work at Sacred Heart Hospital, which valued medical skills and ethics above all else.Moreover, William was the real examiner. Therefore, after learning about Isabella's performance, the board decided to hire the compassionate Isabella."Did someone in the hospital say something unpleasant? It's okay, Bella. I'll have the HR department issue another announcement to clear your name. If you have to blame someone, blame me. I wanted to surprise you, but it backfired. I didn't think it through. Don't blame Joe!"Only then did Isabella smile, "It's okay, William."Knowing that the elderly usua

"Really? No interview? And she got the job? Since when did Sacred Heart Hospital have such a precedent?" the other one asked."Since now. You don't know, the Parker Group is the largest shareholder of Sacred Heart Hospital. It's just a matter of a word if they want the hospital to hire someone!""So, you mean she got the job through the back door, and it was the back door of the Parker Group? Tsk, tsk...""Exactly. I heard she's really beautiful, like a movie star. I wouldn't be surprised if there was some sort of unspoken rules situation going on, haha!""It must be..."The unabashed mockery from the two people stung Isabella's heart. She didn't even know when she had left the restroom."The Parker Group is a shareholder of Sacred Heart Hospital...""Unspoken rules..."Until Richard stood in front of her, their words were still echoing in her mind.So it was Joseph who got her into Sacred Heart Hospital. No wonder he was so calm after receiving the messag

After a simple lunch, Isabella informed Ruth and then took a cab to Sacred Heart Hospital.Her name, phone number, and photo were indeed on the list.The head of the Human Resources department told her that it was a decision from above and that she was only responsible for processing it. And then she kept urging Isabella to complete the onboarding procedures as soon as possible.Coming out of the HR department, Isabella saw Richard striding towards her."I didn't disturb you, did I?" Isabella asked uneasily, looking at Richard who was slightly sweating due to his hurried walk.Richard wiped the sweat off his forehead and chuckled, "No, no, I'm not busy right now."Upon hearing that Isabella was coming to complete her onboarding process, he, who had just come off the operating table, rushed over without even taking a sip of water.Isabella hesitated to voice her question. After hearing it, Richard scratched his head and honestly said, "Well, I'm not quite sure ei
