Not All Nice Looking Boys Are Actually Good

Author: Artemis Rae
last update Last Updated: 2021-07-25 00:31:24

Sporting a headache, Diana woke up in the morning. She dreamt of Lucas for the whole night, burning her from head to toe.

She had dark circles in her eyes when she got up to get herself ready.

That was the first time she dreamt of a man. When she was with Henry, she never even entertained the thought of doing it with him. He looked like a nice guy and it was hard for her to imagine doing anything with him. Of course, when she found out that even nice-looking guys are cheaters, she instantly felt disgusted.

That was a rude awakening for her. Not all nice-looking boys are actually good. She should have followed her instinct not to agree to be his girlfriend instead of letting other people's opinions influence her. That incident taught her to listen to her gut.

Just like that previous night. Her eyes were drawn to Lucas even when insults were hurled at her. She felt in her gut that he's not a bad man. He didn't take advantage of her when he took her to the apartment. Her opinion of him became more favorable.

Checking her phone, there were messages for her from her mom Vanessa, telling her to free up the 8th of April, 2 months from now. Apart from that, there were no other messages.

She was slightly disappointed that Lucas didn't message her. 'What did I expect? Didn't I say that I won't take his words to heart?'

That was the first time she willingly gave her Chatify account. Before, the men courting her were able to obtain it from other acquaintances.

Looks like that will be the last time then. She shook it off and got ready for work.

Today is the first day of her internship at Hopton Research Institute. She will be working there as a Medical Laboratory Technician. She put on a Scrub Suit and fixed her hair in a tight bun. Her face was free of makeup, save for a rosy lip tint.

Picking up her pace, she got down from her apartment and took the taxi.

She arrived just a little early at work and the Supervisor introduced himself to her immediately.

"This is your ID. I need you to register your fingerprint for clocking in." Supervisor Bryan Cook instructed.

"Thank you." Wearing the ID, she followed the manager's instructions and finished clocking in.

The manager showed her the facility, being especially friendly.

"By the way, do you have a boyfriend?" Bryan asked. A mischievous grin plastered on his face.

Diana was taken aback by the sudden personal question.

"Just wondering if somebody would try to send flowers over, it's really not ideal for our workplace, given that we are dealing with samples here." Bryan excused.

"Oh. No. Flowers won't be sent here for me." Diana replied, vaguely.

"Oh. That's good then. Alright, I'll introduce you to your coworkers then you can start working." Bryan smiled and led her to the laboratory.

He clapped his hands getting everyone's attention.

"Everyone, we have a new intern, she graduated from Henhall University." Bryan began.

"Good morning. I am Diana Winchester. I'll be joining you from today. I look forward to working with everyone." Diana introduced herself.

One by one, the lab technicians got up to introduce themselves and shake her hand. Jeremy Maguire, Ted Lupton, and Jonathan Frasier shook her hand eagerly. They could see that Diana is obviously the prettiest girl they've met.

"Hi, Diana. You can call me Clara." Clara Holt smiled. The rest of the women Michelle Rivers, and Alicia Bexley also introduced themselves.

Diana politely greeted each one of them then put away her things.

She quietly went about her work.

Hopton Research Institute is connected to Hopton Hospital which makes it easier for doctors to order laboratory tests for their patients.

Diana has routinely entered the hospital to draw blood and other samples and test it in the laboratory.

In a short time, she was able to create her own systematic routine which lets her finish tasks right on time.

The doctors and nurses in Hopton hospital were impressed at how quickly they got the results and without errors.

The men in the laboratory, especially Bryan were impressed at her skills. She's only an intern and yet she showed skills that people take years to master. But more that, he was mesmerized by Diana's beauty.

She was dressed so simply but one could imagine perky breasts that hid inside. Her curves were just right. 'How it would feel to wrapped his arms around her and caress her skin.' Bryan flashed Diana a heated look.

"She really is amazing. Not only is she gorgeous, but she's also even skilled." Jeremy praised Diana while he was having a lunch break with Ted.

"I heard she is top of their class. My sister's friend goes to the same University. She told my sister before that their Senior was a beautiful and smart girl. She was really famous even to the girls." Ted shared. He had taken a snapshot of Diana and posted it in his story. His sister's friend was using his sister's phone to take pictures when the notification of a story popped up.

"I could see that she is the Campus Queen," Jeremy said, pensively. He already expected for her to become popular at the Research Institute. He wouldn't even be surprised if the guys at the hospital would come to know about her since they had to work with them every time they need to get specimens.

"I won't even be surprised if she'll become the Institute's Queen." Ted grinned. He stared at Diana with a look of admiration. He was looking at the overall picture. Diana's beauty combined with her intellect was really admirable.

"This girl is already making these idiots lose their mind," Clara commented when she overheard Jeremy and Ted's conversation.

"The first day of work and she's already trying too hard." Michelle slammed her cup on the table. She gritted her teeth in displeasure.

"They're already naming her the Institute's Queen," Alicia added, resting her arms on the table and cupping her face with both hands.

"Tch. Impossible." Clara frowned.

No one can replace her. Clara thought.

She was here first. To think a newbie could replace her was just plain ridiculous.

    It has already been a month since she started her internship. Work went by as usual until that afternoon when Hopton Hospital suddenly got flooded by patients that needed their labs taken urgently. Two groups of people were in a car accident. Most of them needed blood transfusions and several of them needing immediate surgeries. The laboratory technicians were swamped with the heavy workload. Diana tried to keep calm amidst the stressful environment. Her shift was almost at an end when suddenly Bryan came to the Laboratory and looked for her. He had a serious look on his face and one could even detect anger. Diana was confused as to why he looked that way and even looked for her. "Sit down," Bryan ordered harshly as soon as she entered his office, throwing a chart on the table towards her. Diana looked confused with his behavior and just calmly scanned the sheet showing

All the way here, she's been racking her brains about what exactly happened. She swore she followed all of the procedures. 'Did I really take it from the right patient? I swear I did.' She inserted the key and twisted it, opening the door. "Hey Di.. You're back early." Heather greeted Diana as she entered their apartment. Glancing at the clock, it's not even time for her scheduled clock-out. "Yeah. Boss sent me home." Diana replied dejectedly. "Huh? What happened?" Heather asked. "Are you feeling sick or something?" Diana is a hard worker. She won't leave work early if she can help it. "No. Though I might as well be. I made an Incident Report today.

    Passing by Hopton Research Institute, Lucas's Assistant, Ethan Taylor who sat in the passenger's seat remembered a small detail. "Mr. Ingram, this Research Institute submitted a proposal in your office. They've made mention about a new discovery they have and asked if you're interested in making an investment." Ethan said, his voice maintained a professional tone. Lucas glanced at the building and recalled that Diana works at Hopton Research Institute. The Investigator mentioned before that she is popular there. Lucas rested his chin against his hand. "Hmm--meet up with them. I'll listen to their proposal." Ethan glanced at Lucas on the front view mirror, wondering if it has something to do with the woman he had investigated. Lucas rarely meets up with people seeking investments. "Alright, Mr. Ingram. I'll e-mail them now." Ethan proceeded to send a message to the Insti

    Did he forget to ask something? Ethan wondered. The drumming didn't stop yet. He desperately tried to recall. Then a thought flashed in his mind. The cause of his boss's weird behavior is his interest on Ms. Diana Winchester. Ethan cleared his throat. "Mr. Cook, if you don't mind me asking, how does Hopton Research Institute take care of its employees?" His voice was nonchalant as if he was only asking it just to make conversation. "Eh? Our employees are being well-guided. Our Institute provides plenty of benefits and is for the employee's career advancement." Bryan sang praises for his company. 'He's probably checking if our institute is in alignment with their institute's ideals.' "I see. That's good to know. I heard that your Institute has recently accepted a new intern?" Ethan asked, drinking a few sips of water. Lucas's drumming stopped. Bryan and Clara were shocke

    Early in the morning, Diana received an e-mail from the Supervisor, Bryan Cook. Upon receiving the notification on her phone, she thought she's being called back to work. She quickly opened the e-mail. Unfortunately, that was not the content of his e-mail. Instead of calling her back to work, he notified her that she will no longer be able to work at Hopton Research Institute. Diana's eyes were about to tear up. She can't believe how they treat their employees. She couldn't explain how she is feeling. She felt like shouting, crying, and even slapping at the real culprit. Knock! Knock! Heather knocked on Diana's door. "I prepared breakfast." When Diana didn't answer, Heather knocked again, twisting the knob and finding it unlocked. "Hey. Breakfast is--" Heather saw Diana's facial expression whil

    Lillian, Ernest and the rest arrived at the airport and were quickly assisted through the process. They were able to leave the airport and head to their residence easily. Adrian looked around and saw that everything seemed strange in his eyes. Nothing was familiar to him. It was when they were finally close to the mansion when he recognized the structure. He had dreamt of this place so many times. It had become hazy at some point. But now, he could see that this was more or less the place he lived in before he was taken. It had some new additions along with other changes such as the paint and the landscape design. But the overall structure was the same. As they entered the gates, he saw that there were a lot of people outside of the house. They were lined up even in this cold weather. Most of them seemed to be wearing uniforms under their black coats. The only ones who looked different than the others were the three couples and two young men. “Ah.. Everyone’s here.” Emma smiled

    Soon, the driver, John Garcia, pulled up outside of the hotel where Lillian and the rest were staying.Adrian was no longer as anxious as he was half an hour ago, still he could still remember the bullets trying to penetrate through the car and the explosion after those goons’ cars had collided.Detective Jones glanced at him, noticing how pale Adrian was.Still, he commended him for not breaking down and not getting in their way.And also, because of him, they were able to rescue so many people who have been missing for years.Perhaps the Mayor might even think of rewarding Adrian because of his contribution.At the moment though, it was inappropriate to bring it up, given what the man had just experienced.So after escorting them to the hotel, Detective Jones left them, joining the other Officers with the rescued people.It was a field day for the reporters, gathering outside the police department.On the televisions of most households, they showed several people with their heads lo

    As John Garcia was driving the car forward, everyone in the car held their breaths.They already knew that those people were Mortimer’s men. They could only play along for now, hoping for them to think that Adrian was in the other cars.But then–that possibility is very low.The black car they’re in was far from ordinary upon close inspection.And like clockwork, shots rang.Adrian ducked, covering his head with his arms.John Garcia gripped the steering wheel while Howard Dawson and Detective Jones cocked their guns.A voice of one of the policemen came on the comms. “Keep going. Follow the second group!”No matter what, they couldn’t let Adrian and the people who had just been rescued be in Mortimer’s hands again.John Garcia didn’t hesitate and quickly sped on.Mortimer’s men have picked the road where there’s only farm crops on each side, the road only leading one way.The city was still quite far so blending in or hiding in some alleyway would still be impossible.For now, they s

    The drive was calm, with John Garcia, the driver not making any stops if he could help it.The car could drive even without gas as it can run on solar power.It could be recharged at a charging station, could store gas and could be powered through solar. This is all thanks to the upgrades done by the Lovell Technologies.With the drive being calm, Adrian fell to sleep.Even Detective Jones dozed off as well, his head hitting the window a couple of times.An hour into the drive, the car suddenly beeped in alarm.Adrian and Detective Jones groaned, having been woken up by the alarm.“What is it? What’s happening?” Detective Jones asked.“There seems to be an accident up ahead.” John Garcia answered, pointing at the GPS shown on the screen in front of him.“Is there another road we can take?” The bodyguard, Hoyt Cole asked.“This is the only road back to Westbury..” John Garcia answered.“Maybe the road is not totally blocked–” Detective Jones said.“Alright then–we’ll keep going..”“Sta

    After canvassing the full layout of the building and accounting the number of people inside, Detective Jones and the other Officers made their strategic plan.An hour later, they made their move.Adrian was made to stay in the car while he viewed their perspective from the tablet device.He was given eyes for different cameras. Two more Officers were also monitoring it from their tablet devices.They compared every person found to the sketches from Adrian’s description of the people held captive. And also of the ones Adrian said were the people who ordered them around.Adrian watched as the trained Officers infiltrated the area covertly.CCTV cameras were hacked and made to play the same view over and over again.They knocked out the guards with tranquilizers, making sure they wouldn’t be waking up so soon.They were separated into groups. One made way to the sleeping quarters of the captives, another entered the main building, and another surrounded all possible exits.There were onl

    Adrian held her hand, squeezing it.At that moment, Hugh returned to the room and was startled by the silence.“What happened?” He asked. His eyes wandered to Violet who now had her head lowered, her hand covering her eyes and her shoulders shaking.‘Is she crying?’ His brows furrowed.“Violet just remembered what happened that time when she was taken away.” Emma summarized it for him.He nodded. “By the way–I’ve just received information just now. Violet–it has something to do with you. If this is not a good time, I won’t say it.”She looked up, quickly wiping her tears with the cloth napkin.“No, please, I want to hear it.”Hugh nodded.“What is it, Hugh?” Emma asked.“It’s about her family.”They all glanced at Violet, gauging her reaction.“I remember–my mother died that time.” She said.Hugh nodded, confirming what she had remembered.Her heart fell.

Um–I was going to bring her to the dining room.”“Ah.. I see. Well, just in time. We’re done here as well.” Emma smiled. She turned her head and called over. “Come on you two..”“Okay!” Priscilla said. “Let’s go Violet..”Priscilla brought Violet over.Adrian was struck for a moment when he saw Violet.He had never seen her so dolled up.Her hair was beautiful and so is her overall look.
