CHAPTER 20

The group of six hospital staff stood outside the front door with hands clasped in front of them for the arrival of their best and most major investor.The six consisted of Mikayla, Anna, two other doctors and two nurses including Nurse Kim.It was Monday morning, the day they were expecting Cael to begin his inspection of their hospital. Everyone was dressed to the nines. The nurse's uniform were even neater than usual, if that even possible.Even the doctors were dressed in glistering, white coats. From the look of it, they appeared to be new even. Mikayla hadn't gotten the memo so she was dressed in one of her usual coats. Anna was a different story. Apart from wearing an unmistakably new coat, the dress she wore underneath the coat was unlike anything Mikayla had ever seen her wear to work. She must have gotten a new dress as well.When her hair looked freshly made. When did she even get the time to get her hair done? Mikayla's hair was simply pulled up into a ponytail. She pro

Mila sprung to her feet at the sight of Cael in her doorway.He chuckled and waved her back into her chair. "Don't worry, I'm not going to do anything to you... today." To buttress his point, he stalked over to one of the chairs and took a seat, facing her.Once she ascertained that he had no plans to come for her, she sat slowly. "What are you doing here? Is the tour over?""Yes, I've seen enough for today," he said dismissively. "Yeah? Can you tell me about what you saw today then?" She asked.He smiled. "Are you testing me now?""I just want to make sure that we're not wasting our time holding a tour for someone who isn't interested in the hospital," she shrugged."I'm already invested in the hospital. If not for anything else, I care about the hospital because I care about my money," he pointed out."Well, I prefer investors who are actually mentally invested in the hospital's cause instead," she countered."I am mentally invested in you, and that translates to being mentally in

CHAPTER 22

Mikayla still hadn't come to a decision on what to do as she stood outside the hospital with the rest of the welcome team to receive Cael Lautner for the second day.Cael wanted her there during the tour but Anna wanted her to leave so she could spend time with Cael.She'd evaded Anna's question the day before and had tossed and turned all night worrying over what to do. He would be arriving any minute now and she still didn't know what to do.Anna came to stand beside her and hit her shoulder lightly with hers. "How you doing?""I'm okay," Mikayla answered."We're still on for today, right?"Mikayla sighed. She still hadn't made a decision but she couldn't evade the question a second time without tripping off Anna's brain alarms. She didn't have a choice. "Yes, we're still on. I'll find a way to leave. I have work to do anyways.""Oh, you're the best!" She squealed and pulled Mikayla into a tight hug. "I love you.""I love you too," she answered.Cael's car pulled up a few minutes l

Mikayla cleared her throat and smiled at the patient before her again. The elderly woman smiled back at her again. "I'll like to thank you once again, Mrs Durall for volunteering to be a part of today's activities.""Oh you know I just love being active." She lowered her voice but kept it loud enough for everyone in the room to hear."Plus, it's not so bad since that one is an eye candy." She winked surreptitiously in Cael's direction.Mrs Durall 's declaration drew Mikayla's attention to the elephant in the room again, Cael Lautner.Today was the final day of his hospital visit and he was sitting in on her consultations that morning.Since she'd canceled her schedule for the three days he was going to be here, there were no "real" patients. Instead, they'd invited some of the regulars who didn't mind taking part in the exercise. Cael was sitting in the spot Nurse Rachel usually stood, observing. Nurse Kim was also in the room but stood behind the patient, close to the door.Anna h

Anna flopped down face down on Mikayla's couch. Meanwhile Mikayla hovered uncomfortably over her."Why are you just standing there?" Sit," Anna promoted."Right," Mikayla muttered, hurrying to obey. She perched on the edge of the seat, back straight and restless, before remembering that this was her home. She forced herself to relax into the chair."So what's up?" She prompted.Anna turned on her side so she could look at Mikayla. "You know what? I love you and hate you at the same time."Mikayla didn't say anything, letting her complete what she wanted to say first."You aren't even interested in him. You made that abundantly clear yet he still wouldn't even look at me. All he wanted to see was you, you, you.""I don't think that's--" Mikayla started to say.Anna cut her off. "Oh please, don't be humble, friend. You know it's true. I could barely get him to take his eyes off of you for a second.""But--"She scoffed. "I even gave him the best sexy smile. You know the one." She wen

"Antoine," she frowned at her patient. "Did you just chase away my bartender?"He smiled and pulled up an empty stool beside her. "I didn't do anything!" He was dressed in a simple flannel shirt and black pants. As usual, he looked good, very good.Several ladies around them were throwing him interested glances."Then why did he go scrambling away like a cat with its tail on fire?" She asked suspiciously. He'd practically run away and was now sticking to the other end of the bar "He saw a better man?" He offered with a shrug.Mikayla scoffed. "Right, Mr Arrogant." "I can't help it. It's in the french blood," he said, accentuating his french accent. "Plus, a man who can't stand his ground for you isn't good enough for you.""And I suppose you're the one who can stand his ground for me and therefore are good for me?" He grinned slowly and shrugged. Mikayla shook her head and laughed. "You know what? Your arrogance is not entirely annoying." "It's kind of sexy, isn't it?" he asked

Grrr! Grrr!Mikayla jumped up in her bed. Even before she was fully conscious, she felt her stomach heave. She flew off her bed.Mikayla bolted to her bathroom, yanked the toilet open and proceeded to empty the contents of her stomach into it through her mouth. After hurling for a good few minutes, she sat back on her knees, her head resting on the edge of the toilet seat. When she finally felt strong enough to move, she closed the toilet lid and flushed the toilet, slowly pulling herself up to sit on the lid.The force of moving her body alone had her head pounding vigorously. She dropped her head in her hands and shut her eyes. This was the worst case of hangover she'd dealt with in a long, long time.Why was she this hungover? She'd only had one drink, she remembered. The bartenders favorite. What was his name again? Bradley? Something like that. Did he slip something into her drink? It was unimaginable to think that she'd gotten drunk so fast and so thoroughly from just one c

"I'm so sorry I'm late," Mikayla apologized to Nurse Kim and Nurse Rachel as she rushed in. Even though she was barely ten to fifteen minutes late, at the end of the day, she felt so awful about it. "It's not a bad thing to be late once in a while, Dr Wall," Nurse Kim said."Yes, it'll make the other doctors feel a little better," Rachel added."Better in what way?" She asked as she shrugged on her coat. Nurse Kim gave Rachel a warning look. Mikayla caught the look. "Let her talk," she chastened."Well..." she shuffled from foot to foot. "The other doctors sometimes feel that you're a bit...robotic. You make them feel bad with how well you do everything.""I have to, I'm the boss," she said incredulously."Dr Anna is also the boss but she is more...flexible," Rachel said.Mikayla scoffed then laughed. "I guess it's a fun dad vs strict mum kind of situation then." "It doesn't bother you?" Rachel asked with surprise.She shurgged. "I had a similar reputation in medical school, and h

By the time Mikayla and Cael walked in, the dinner party was in full swing. Almost every face that was supposed to be there was already there when they entered, and more.There were people she didn't recognize and some that she knew only faintly.He must have invited some more people. "Who are all these people?" She asked."Potential investors," he whispered back.Wow, she thought. And she was filled with gratitude. "Thank you.""You're welcome. But I have no choice. I have to support your work. I told you that you look most beautiful when you're working. So I plan to give you more work."She laughed and shook her head. This man! When the attendees spotted Cael and Mikayla, they cheered.She leaned over to Cael. "Don't tell me you have been keeping these good people waiting all this while because you were waiting for me.""Of course, I have," he whispered back. "I'm only here for you.""Then you didn't have to drag the rest of them into it.""You wouldn't have come if I didn't," he p

Just like that night at the fundraiser, Mikayla stepped into the night with Cael at her side. Just like that night, her heart thudded in her chest.Just like that night, she followed him anyway and without question.But this time, he held her hand like it belonged to him. This time, he smiled down at her the entire time like she was the best thing around. This time, he led her to a set of stairs around the side of the building and they went up the stairs.It opened onto an open-air roof with a matching set of white chairs and a small circular table. A flower vase with pretty pink flowers sat in the middle of the small table. Around the roof, little pots of flowers and plants decorated the floor. Overhead, the stars twinkled in the night sky. Twinkling little lights were sprung overhead from pole to pole."Wow, this is beautiful," Mikayla gushed. "Did you prepare this for me?""Unfortunately not. It is the restaurant's property. But I did choose this place for the dinner event wi
