Nicholas rose from the bed and paced around the room with his phone in hand as he dialed a number belonging to the only person he knew would have his back apart from his mother right now.

He had considered calling his mother, but knowing the kind of family he came from, there was no way his mother's phone wasn't already wired.

If he called her, there would be about 20 people listening in on their conversation and trying to track his location.

He was smart; he wouldn't just walk into their trap like that, he thought.

Nicholas listened as the phone rang. "Please pick up, pick up, pick up," he muttered nervously under his breath.

No answer.

He tapped away again on the keypads with his trembling hand, dialing the second number belonging to the person he wanted to reach out to. After a few seconds, the line connected.

"Thank God!" Nicholas whispered as he shut his eyes, reveling in his victory. He was finally going to be smuggled out of the country by his dear friend.

    Mr. Hemsworth was eager to hear Jessica's plan. How else did she plan on reinstating her medical license? If someone of his caliber could go and ask for it and his request was turned down. He had even offered money to the medical department, yet they remained adamant on their decision. What made her think the case would be any different? Mr. Hemsworth battled internally.Seeing his reaction, Jessica felt the need to explain what she meant. She leaned forward, resting both her hands on the table, striking a beautiful pose, "What i mean is, I am going to do what you did, but I would do it differently."Mr. Hemsworth's eyes widened as the thought of what Jessica meant occurred to him. Was she really going to do that? He never thought she would go in that direction.Jessica smiled at him and nodded, confirming his thoughts, "I am going to hold a press conference. I will reveal to everyone in the world that I am Alexandra, the medical expert everyone knows but has never seen. I will let th

    Jessica was about to reveal her identity—an information she knew would shake the world to its core. Over the years, people had wanted to find out the real identity of the woman with gifted hands to no avail. Now, they were about to get just what they wanted.Now that Jessica had revealed that her cousin had a hand in what caused the revoking of her medical license, she knew her medical license would be reinstated, but that would take a lot of time and proceedings—time that she didn't have. If she didn't operate on Justin in a few days, there was no telling how worse his condition will be or what might happen to him.Having processed her thoughts and fought off her lingering reservations, Jessica gradually leveled her gaze until she was looking squarely at the camera. There was absolute decorum in the conference room as everyone watched her eagerly, waiting to hear the news that was bound to make headlines.Jessica cleared her throat and said in a serious tone, "For some years now, e

    Mary glanced at the strange number, wondering who it might be. This was a very rare occurrence; she hardly gets contacted on her business line. Apart from her coworkers and boss, she couldn't really think of any other person who could be in possession of the number.She narrowed her eyes as she thought hard about who it might be."Pick up your call, Mary," one of the nurses urged impatiently as they were all eager to know who was calling."It might actually be Dr. Alexandra. Think about it; she just made a shout-out to you a few minutes ago. She might want to place a call to get in touch with you directly," the doctor explained convincingly.Mary thought about it for a second. How possible could that be? She had never communicated with Dr. Alexandra using her business line. As far as she could remember, Dr. Alexandra was one of those who only has her personal line. She had also memorized Dr. Alexandra's number, and the one displaying on her screen right now was definitely not hers.M

    Jessica brought her phone to her ear but kept it at a distance. She didn't really want to deal with her mother right now; she just wanted to dismiss her as quickly as possible.Rebecca sounded quite hurt and aggressive when she spoke, "Jessica, or should I call you Dr. Alexandra? How could you…"But before she could finish, Jessica quickly interrupted her, "Mom, please, can I come over and see you tomorrow? This is not something we can discuss over the phone. My husband is here, and he needs me right now. Please, I love you. Bye." Jessica ended the call and heaved a huge sigh of relief.Old Mrs. Hemsworth was not pleased with how Jessica had dismissed her mother. She put herself in Rebecca's shoes, thinking if it were her, she would be quite upset right now. Therefore, she reprimanded Jessica, "That is not the way to talk to your mother, young lady. You should hear her out, allow her pour out her grievances." She looked at Justin and then back at Jessica, grimacing, "You even had to

    Sonia was petrified, visibly shaken. Just who is this man, she wondered? The seconds it took for the man to respond felt like a million years to her. Her heart kept thumping against her ribcage."Who am I?" the man asked mockingly as he snorted a laugh. Sonia's eyes widened.Hearing the man speak again intensified her fear. She knew she had heard that voice before, but to whom did it belong?She cried pleadingly, "Please don't hurt me. Whoever you are, please don't harm me.""Hahaha, you should have thought of that when you decided not to keep to your own end of the bargain. Now move, slowly," he snapped angrily, pointing the gun more aggressively towards her as he motioned for her to go in the direction he wanted.That was when it hit her!"Is it you? What are you...wait, how did you know where I live?" she asked, trying to mask her fear."How the tables have turned. It wasn't difficult to find you at all.

    As soon as Jessica turned, a slight frown etched her face. Standing behind her was Dr. Martins, the same man she had heard from Nicholas, accused her of having a hand in the attack on her husband.When Dr. Martins found out few days ago, just like everyone else, that Jessica was Dr. Alexandra, he was absolutely gobsmacked. He wondered how that could be and thought back to the day Jessica was acting a little nonchalant in his office, realizing it was because she already had a solution to her husband's predicament.He had been scared to approach her due to the way he had treated her in the past—all the snide and sarcastic remarks he made in her presence hadn't gone unnoticed.

To him, she was just acting, being the badass actress she was, which even infuriated him more.Pondering on the next steps to take, he had summoned the courage to meet Dr. Alexandra,

He contemplated carrying Nicholas into his car and taking him to a nearby hospital. He glanced at Nicholas' unconscious body again, and a thought crossed his mind, one that chilled him to the bone, causing his jaw to drop as his eyes widened."What if he is dead?

They already knew who he was; if the police, sent to protect the hospital, had allowed him to gain entrance at this crucial time when security was heightened, then they felt they had no choice but to do the same.Nicholas had been brought to the hospital in his disguised state, so the security men had no clue who the person being protected in the ward was.

Everyone tried to put on a smiling face, even though their hearts ached on the inside.The energy in the room was really low. Nicholas, noticing this, raised a glass and clanked it with a spoon to get everyone's attention as he cleared his throat. All sets of eyes were averted towards him as everyone eagerly waited to hear what he would say.Nicholas smiled brightly as his eyes swept across the faces at the dining table, acknowledging each of them in an endearing manner.

    Deep in thought, Justin drove to Jessica's mother's apartment. It had been two weeks since his discharge from the hospital.Two days after leaving the hospital, under persistent pressure from his grandmother and stepmother concerning Nicholas, Justin reached a decision. He chose to implore Jessica to perform the surgery on Nicholas, solely to prevent him from dyinf.This decision didn't signify forgiveness. In fact, he adamantly declined to visit Nicholas in the hospital. Fearful of what he might do to him as he remained vengeful and resentful, harboring deep anger for all he had endured at Nicholas' hands.The problem, however, was that Jessica had refused to treat Nicholas. In fact, they had engaged in an argument that led to her moving out of his apartment. All attempts to persuade her to reconsider proved fruitless. Since then, he had been trying to reach Jessica through her mother, with whom she had sought refuge.Surprisingly, when he called her mother that morning to inquire a

    Having recovered from the shock of Jessica's stern attitude, Nicholas looked at her with pleading eyes. Determined to make it work, he ensured everything he said seemed to come directly from his heart. Although he had mentally rehearsed this moment repeatedly, he didn't anticipate the scene playing out so soon.When he asked his father to help him plead with Jessica the previous day, he hadn't expected his wish to be granted. However, knowing he would see Jessica one day, he prepared ahead of time. Now, she stood before him. This was his opportunity, and he promised himself to make the most of it.Rising from the bed, his gaze fixed on Jessica, Nicholas's hand was cuffed to the bed, limiting his movement. Despite the constraint, he had enough room to do what he wanted. Jessica's eyes narrowed with hatred as she witnessed his eyes clouding with tears.Scoffing, she remarked, "I am listening. Say what you want to say; I need to be on my way soon." She eagerly waited for him to beg her

    Mr. Hemsworth arrived at the hospital with his mother and wife an hour later and stormed in the direction of Nicholas' ward. He had informed the hospital earlier that day to update him once his son woke up. The hospital was heavily guarded, as two sons of the most powerful and influential man in London, whose lives were still in imminent danger, were in different wards.For all Mr. Hemsworth knew, the culprit who had shot his second son was still at large. Until apprehended, Nicholas and even Justin were not safe. Who knows, the person trying to kill Nicholas might be attempting to cover up a dark past. Justin had mentioned that Nicholas was working with a cult. Could it be they wanted to silence Nicholas for good to prevent him from confessing to his crimes and thereby mention their involvement in money laundering and the attempt on Justin's life?Whatever it was, he would hear it now that his son was awake.As soon as they entered Nicholas' ward, Mr. Hemsworth motioned for the gua

    The doctor suddenly remembered he had given the nurse a task earlier and asked her to inform him as soon as it was completed. That had to be what she had come to tell him about.He corked a brow up and asked curiously, "Are the test results out?" Laura nodded in response to his question. She wore a grave expression on her face, which was really unsettling to Mr. Hemsworth, who was clueless about what was going on."What test results? Can someone explain to me what exactly is going on here?" he snapped in frustration.The doctor immediately felt the need to explain before things escalated any further. "I am sorry, Mr. Hemsworth, for keeping you in the dark. The thing is, in this hospital, it is standard procedure to conduct a full check-up on our patients to ensure they are medically fit," he exchanged glances with the nurse and continued, "we ran some tests on Nicholas, and it appears the results are out," he concluded.Mr. Hemsworth was a little tense. The girl's reaction hinted t
