unexpected love

Belinda obediently followed them to the hospital director's office. Wayne was slouched on the sofa, his tall frame perfectly straight and imposing. Only a careful observer would notice the faint paleness of his thin lips. The hospital's antiseptic smell masked the faint scent of blood on him Dressed in a pure black suit, his face exuded a sharp, commanding aura forged through countless storms. Just one look from him was enough to make anyone tremble with fear! His assistant circled behind Wayne, leaned down, and whispered, "All the surveillance footage from last night was deliberately destroyed. It must have been done by those who were after you, to avoid leaving any evidence. This is the doctor who was on duty last night, Belinda Carl and so she must be the one who booked the hotel close by. The director confirmed it, and I checked the duty roster myself. She was indeed on duty last night." Wayne looked up. Belinda gasped sharply. Wasn't this the CEO of Gray's cooperation

She lowered her eyes as she walked over to pack up the medical kit, not forgetting her duties as a doctor. "The wound shouldn't get wet for now. Disinfect it once a day, and try to wear loose clothing to avoid irritating the wound." She placed the medications down. "This one is for oral use, and this one is for external application." Wayne didn't turn around, merely responding with a faint "Hmm." Scarlett didn't say much more either.picked up her medical kit and walked out. She entered her car and drove back to the hospital, and it was almost eleven o'clock by the time she arrived. She grabbed a bite to eat at the hospital cafeteria. Just as she returned to her department, the director called her into his office. "I've decided to send Belinda Carl to the training at the Second District Hospital," the director said, his expression serious, as if he had something difficult to say. Scarlett was taken aback and couldn't help but ask, "Wasn't I supposed to go?" "You know, all

"Miss Norman? I'm President Gray's assistant. He requests your presence. Please come with me." Upon seeing Christopher, Scarlett was momentarily stunned. She quickly lowered her gaze to hide the fact that she recognized him. The last time she had treated someone for an injury on behalf of Bryan, it was this man who had opened the door. So, he was Gray's assistant? And the injured person was wayne? "Miss Norman, please." Christopher's tone grew firmer when he saw she wasn't moving. Scarlett gathered her thoughts and replied, "I have to work." It was a clear refusal. She had no desire to see that man. "Miss Norman, think carefully. Given your current situation, if you upset President Gray, losing your job would be the least of your worries. It could ruin your entire career as a doctor." The threat was obvious. Scarlett clenched her fists tightly. Her father only provided for the surgery costs; her mother's treatment and care expenses were all covered by her salary. She

"Not seeing anyone," Wayne said as he pushed open the office door. "Get me a cup of coffee." With that, he walked towards his desk. "President Ortiz said if you don't see him, he won't leave today." Wayne glanced back at his secretary. The secretary immediately lowered her head. "Bring him in," he said as he sat down and unbuttoned his suit jacket. Soon, the secretary came in with a cup of coffee, followed by jeff. jeff wore a face full of resentment as he started questioning, "That woman, where did you find her?" Wayne picked up his coffee and gestured for the secretary to leave. Only then did he look up at jeff. "Look at what she did to me!" jeff pointed at his neck, where a visible scar lay, and his wrist was wrapped in bandages. "She nearly severed my tendons." Wayne's gaze briefly lingered on jeff's injuries, feeling a strange sense of satisfaction. Feigning ignorance, he asked, "How did it happen?" jeff, still shaken, replied, "That woman had a knife! Her

Everyone was puzzled. How could it be such a coincidence? Both of them had something urgent? Belinda also sensed something was off. If she had misheard earlier, what about now? Her eyes darted back and forth between Wayne and Scarlett, trying to figure out what was going on. "Dr. Norman, what urgent matter do you have?" she asked cautiously. Scarlett wanted to blurt out that she was wayne's wife and let him explain everything to Belinda. But in reality, she didn't dare. She couldn't afford to offend this man. Having already lost the chance to work at the Second District Hospital, she couldn't risk losing her job here as well. So, she shrank back like a quail, "My grandpa called me back for something urgent. I couldn't refuse. I didn't expect President Gray to have something urgent too. What a coincidence, haha—" She forced out a laugh. She hoped to muddle through, but Wayne had to stir the pot. "Coincidentally, my grandpa called me too. Where does your grandpa live?
