All eyes turned to them as they strolled into the large room that had been expensively furnished and decorated. It radiated luxury, with velvet sofas, gilded accents, and a sparkling crystal chandelier. Camelia moved her eyes to the polished dining table held fine china, silverware, and lush floral arrangements. The candlelight flickered against silk wallpaper, while servers glided by with trays of hors d'oeuvres.She was captivated at the work Hillary had done, quietly commending her. The stares continued as they moved towards the display of the family album which was obviously orchestrated by her.Was it her dress or did they recognise her? Camelia wondered as she noticed the glances from unrecognised faces. She had opted for a turquoise plain crepe dress that was adorned with silver diamonds with simple silver earrings and heels to match. It didn’t look like much but only she knew the true worth but it seemed everybody knew now.“Is that May's limited dress?” She heard one of the

Dinner ended as quickly as it started and Francis needed no one to tell him that he was distracted. He didn't know why Camelia had come and even if he did, who was the person beside her?Was he her husband or lover? All he knew was that something seemed to be going on between them. The man was seated beside her, sipping wine like he belonged. His hand occasionally grazed Camelia’s and she didn’t pull away.“Urgh, what am I doing?” Francis called himself to order when he noticed his sight drifting to her as she spoke with a friend of hers.“Mr Francis, are you alright?” The man speaking to Francis spoke out, bringing him back to their conversation.“Yeah, I am,” Francis smiled curtly, “Just a little exhausted, it's been a long day. Let's continue this another time, shall we?” The man nodded as they shook hands and the man left.“Can I speak with you?” Hillary appeared in his front and they moved away from the crowd.-“Are you ready?” Gary asked Camelia who had just finished a conve

Camelia saw Francis nod from the corner of her eyes. Her eyes were fixated on the Director but her attention was on Francis, the twitching of his brows were confirmation to her suspicions.‘Hillary was not fine with it.’ But she was less concerned.“That would be all.” The director announced, “I called you both to ensure you are both on the same page.” “So…” He stressed the word, expecting their affirmation.Francis turned to her and back to the man, “Yes, sir. I assure you that there would be no problem.”‘That would be just from you,’ Camelia wanted to say but she dared not. “Yes, sir.” She nodded her head in confirmation.“Good, you may both leave.” The director dismissed and moved his attention to the workload on his table, taking the telephone in his hand to make a call.“Ehm, sir. I would like to have a moment with you,” Camelia stopped him from making a call.“Oh,” He sounded, “You can leave then, Francis.”Francis looked at her with mixed emotions. He wondered what she wanted

Camelia stared at Taylor in confusion. One look at her face and Taylor could tell she couldn’t understand what she was saying.“You don't understand me, right?” She asked.Camelia nodded, putting her hands akimbo as she waited for clarification. What did Taylor mean by Hillary’s accident?Taylor took a deep breath in and a deep look at Camelia. “I heard Hillary had a concussion in the hospital.” She disclosed and heard a gasp from Camelia.Camelia's hands flew to her mouth and she paced down around the office in shock. “But… but how is that possible?” She questioned. “Did she fall? Where is she now?”“I don’t know where she is but she should be in the operating room.” She stayed silent for a while before she continued. “I don’t think that is what you should be worried about.” Taylor stated calmly.This put Camelia on hold. She was back to herself quickly despite how bad she felt for Hillary. Yes, she wanted her revenge back, but she could help the ‘Doctor spirit’ in her.“Cammy,” Tayl

“That’s impossible, not in my surgery. Get another person!” Camelia walked by just at the moment and heard him speak. She stopped abruptly and stood right in front. Nichole held his breath, “This was going to be messy.”“What’s wrong?” She asked with a worried gaze.“Nothing, we were just…” Nichole tried to say but he was interrupted by Francis.“You can do the scrubbing.” He said simply and walked out on them, “Get another person, Eva.”She stared at him with her mouth slightly agape, she scoffed lightly before Nichole came to her rescue. “I'd talk to him, he doesn't mean it.” He begged and ran after Francis.Camelia was dumbfounded, she couldn’t believe he would do that to her especially since a patient was involved. The last thing she expected him to do was put a patient’s life on the line.“You are not taking this away from me, Nichole.” With that, she ran after them, her blue gown fitted to her petite figure.She ran after them but they already walked into a conference room, loc
