"One hundred and twenty five things I shouldn't do and three hundred things about Vince! What the heck!" I was shocked that I exclaimed. How did he even have the head to think about all these? I can even understand that of Vince but yet, it is too much." Yes, I live by rules," he said with pride.I felt like tearing the paper into pieces then my eyes caught something."You must retire to your room by 8pm" I read out.I gave out an angry laugh. I don't know who he is to tell me what to do."Who are you to control my sleeping time?" She asked rudely."I hate noise at night," he said."I know you have rules Mr boss but I am a doctor and I work in shifts. Many times I might have an emergency. So your rules will never work with me. If you can't take me going out and coming in,then just let me go back to where I am coming from" I said firmly.I can't just let the guy control me. Even if he likes it, he should not give me a die. I wasn't here for the money anyways."Then your brother woul
Violet's POV"It's saving time! I wanna save the world!"That was my ringing tone, blasting into my ears. I didn't need to check the caller, that sound was customized whenever the hospital I work for was calling me. I did it so I would know it was an emergency.And I think I am in for another round of emergencies. So tiring but worth doing!"Dr Violet, there's an accident and we don't have enough hands. Please you have to help out" the receptionist's voice rang out from the receiver. It was even louder than the ringtone that woke me and she sounded desperate too. That means the emergency must be really serious and plenty too. Did I actually think I would be free during this hectic period?"I will be right there" I said, sighing. I jumped up and quickly put on a polo and a blue jean. Looking at the wall clock, it wasn't even eleven PM yet. That means I haven't slept for an hour. I called for a taxi and I rushed out. I just hope it won't be late for me to get there. Another problem o
Jason's POVI knew that I had let my anger get over me. I shouldn't have spoken to Violet like that. But then do you know what I felt seeing my son throwing tantrums again? I was afraid of seeing the old version of him again.I walked to where Anne was feeding Vince."Are you alright, Tiger?" I asked him.Vince didn't even smile at me. "Daddy, it is wrong to shout at mommy. You shouldn't bully her. You should apologize to her" he said to me."I know I won't do it again," I said, patting his head. I just had to apologize, after all, I was truly wrong.I know I was wrong but I have never got to apologize to anyone."Mommy is hungry, maybe you should go give her food," Vince said, smiling. I know my son was trying to help me but was food truly the answer?" Vince, I will send someone to go give her food. It won't be good to go to her room" I said to him forgetting that I have a smart son."Isn't mommy and daddy supposed to have the same room as a couple? Why is her room different?" He a
Violet's POVAmelia wasn't planning anything against me like I thought. I had called our director and he said the same thing."Dr Violet, use today to arrange your things, you are going to the Clarksville house to take care of his wife. Don't worry you will be paid accordingly" he said.It was confirmed that I was getting paid to take care of myself. For the first time I saw Jason as a darling. I would stay at home and relax like never before.I was still thinking and jubilating in my newly found favor when a call came in. It was Joe. Oh, I still owe him an explanation of where I was. Well, what Jason just did now was already an excuse for both him and my family."Hey Val, what's going on? I heard you are going on a holiday" he said on the phone." Where are you, let's talk?" I asked him." Are you okay?" He asked, worriedly." Yes. Let's meet at our usual spot"We scheduled to meet at a restaurant near the hospital since he was working the night shift and that was our favorite spot.
Listening to what I said, he gave me a strange look because my profession doesn't deal with adults."Dr Violet, I am not questioning your professionalism but then you don't treat adults" he said to me." But that doesn't mean I can't. And if you don't believe me, you can go ahead to ask the director" I said to him.Knowing how aggressive our director was, he wouldn't do that. I followed him to his office and he told me everything I needed to know. I knew something was wrong with Jason from that accident but that stubborn guy wouldn't take care of himself."We are waiting for his wife to appear but we haven't found her" the doctor said tiredly.He knew that if anything goes wrong with the patient and there was no signing of consent for operation from the family, the doctor will definitely be in trouble."I don't know why she's delaying it. Her husband is sick and she's just there doing God knows what. Rich people and their naughtiness'' he complained.If only he had known that I was th
Violet's POVJason was finally getting better, and I couldn't be more relieved. It had been a long night, spending every spare moment at the hospital, watching him suffer through his pain. I couldn't even sleep. I do not know why I was so concerned with the man I hate so much. Maybe it was because I was a doctor. My profession can't ignore my worst enemy. That's the big disadvantage of being a doctor.I know everyone at the hospital was curious about why I was so invested in his well-being, but little did they know the history we shared. The lie that the director had even told must have made them more curious.Jason was not married, which was known by everyone and again I am a pediatrician, why would I be concerned with his wellbeing as if I was his wife? I knew it was morning already and I already promised him that he would be discharged today if he was well enough. Seeing how he had slept through the night, I know that there won't be harm done if we take him home.I got out of the
I turned around to see the person but was relieved it was just one of the junior nurses on duty. Why did he sound like Joe just now? Was it because of my guilt?"It's not what you think, Nurse Kim. We were talking about his wife not being here"I was still trying to explain to the nurse when those two men started talking. I cleared my throat to gain their attention all to no avail. My head was filled with the possibility of a new rumor."I just wanted to check on Mr. Jason because..." Nurse Kim was saying to me with a fake smile on his face. Did he really or was he among the gossipers? "Get out!" Jason said suddenly, making the nurse shake in fright.Without saying another word, Nurse Kim scrambled out of the ward. Wasn't that too much? Why was he sounding scary to everyone? "Wife?" He asked, frowning as soon as the nurse left."It's not a secret any more," Alex said, his words almost looking like a murmur.I wasn't surprised because I knew that everyone in the hospital was talking
Jason POVI didn't know what exactly happened to me. Just a little pain that I felt, I found myself on the hospital bed. Before then, I knew I wasn't feeling good and I was planning to rest but then how, I'm at the hospital. I didn't expect that Violet would stay with me. The only business she has with me is to take care of Vince. I know this is extra work and I'm expected to pay her. She didn't want her colleagues at work to know but they somehow found out so I had to make sure it doesn't get out. She's not the only one that wants to hide our marriage. I want to also because I haven't told my family about it and I know that my grandfather would never agree to it. He has always wanted me to be with someone who is fit to help me with our family business.I don't even want the news to know about my relationship with her. I just pray in my heart that Vince would recover quickly and she would go her way.Rachel would have been perfect until she ditched me. She went away with another man
