"I can spare a few minutes," he answered and she pulled out a chair and sat down.
"It's about Regina. I want to know the progress of her treatment. Why hasn't she woken up yet?"
He let out a deep breath and drew back. "I can't say when she will regain consciousness. That is not within my power. And for the treatment, I haven't found a positive result," he answered and watched her face drop.
She looked so tired at that moment. "There should be a way, right?"
"There would be, but I am trying to find that way," he answered and drew forward. "Like I said, this is a rare case and the research done on it was dropped. But, I made a promise and I am going to fulfill it," she assured.
"I know I am asking too much. Regina is the last pers

The commenters might be right. Maybe the end fate is death. Damien let out a deep breath and put his hands in his white coat's pocket. "We will be undergoing lab tests and monitoring the changes. This hospital has the best doctors, so we will be able to come up with something," he answered. "Maybe she didn't need all kinds of medicines, but just a little medicine and that would do the job."Bianca let out a deep breath, feeling reassured. It's been three weeks since Regina fell sick, and it was the first time she got a reassuring word. She looked at Damien and the corners of her lips curled up unknowingly. She knew she could trust Damien. He was capable and she was glad Regina had come into the hospital. "I believe you," she muttered and he looked at her, not expecting her reply. She cleared her throat and quickly said, "I believe that you and your doctors will save my sister. This hospital already has a good review. I am rest assured and relaxed."Damien nodded and sat down. "Alr

She dropped her hand and her smile faded. "Why? I am so irritated now that I can't bring the pain relievers to you?" She questioned and walked in completely. "That's not it," Damien answered and rubbed his neck. He wasn't expecting her to be in his office at that time. "I wasn't expecting you."She nodded and dropped the pain reliever pills on the table. "Anyway, I saw him hurrying to your office and he seemed uneasy. He told me he got a call from home about his grandma and had to rush out, so I volunteered to bring this to you," she explained and tried to look at his computer, but couldn't reach him."Is there a positive response?" She questioned with curiosity lacing her voice.Damien picked up the pain relievers and examined them. He went to take a bottle of water and sat back. "You aren't saying anything," she said, seeing he was planning to ignore her. "This is about my sister and I need to know her progress.""There is no positive response. If there is, I will let you know," h

Bianca looked at him with her brows drawn together. A cure? She wondered. Not getting an explanation from him, she looked back at the paper."That is the cure?"Damien ignored her question and sat down. He typed the medicine's name in his computer and when it came into view, he let out a deep breath and drew closer. "This might be it," he muttered, getting Bianca more curious. "What are you talking about?" she questioned and bent a bit to see what he was doing. "I am confused right now. Did you find the medication for her?"Damien let out a deep breath and moved his hair back. "Who would have thought a critical illness would be cured by a simple medication," he finally said, looking at her. Bianca stood straight and drew her brows. "Do you mean the immune booster?"He nodded and scrolled down the results displayed on the screen. "Absolutely," he simply answered and began to type more results. Bianca stared intently at the screen and arched her brows. She averted her gaze to Damien

Damien eyes popped open upon hearing what the man said. He brought the phone to his face to see the number before he took it back to his ear. "Dr Ahmed?" He remembered nothing about sending a message to him. "Yes. I got an email sent from you around 2 am, but I saw the email this morning," he answered, clearing Damien's confusion. "Why don't we meet to talk more about this? I am staying in the countryside. Retired last year and decided to start a new life in Middle-field. You should also consider it. This place is a lot more peaceful and quiet than you can ever imagine," he suggested. "It must be great," Damien answered, keeping his voice calm. "I will meet you in the countryside this evening."The old man agreed and hung up. Immediately he did, Damien looked at Bianca to ask about it but she was asleep. For someone who was claiming to be strong enough to remain awake, she fell asleep faster than he thought. He let out a deep breath and faced his computer. He logged into his emai

Damien drove down the road, heading to the countryside with Bianca sitting in the passenger's seat. He kept stealing glances at her and even though she noticed, she ignored him.She surprisingly knew the doctor and the countryside where he was. According to her, she had a bad history with him. Damien knew she regretted sending an email to him, as she would have done otherwise if she knew who he was.Following the map, he took the next forget wrongly and almost drove into a ditch. He stepped on the brake at the last minute. He quickly looked at Bianca and noticed how scared she was. "I am sorry. I took the turn wrongly," he apologized.Bianca placed her hand on her chest trying to calm her racing heart. She looked at him and noticed how calm he was even though they almost had a fatal accident. "I don't think this is the right turn," Damien said looking around. The road was surrounded by thick trees. Bianca looked around and shook her head. "This is not the road. We need to go left

Dr Ahmed stared at her for a few minutes before he looked away and cleared his throat. "You never told me you were coming with someone."Damien glanced at Bianca, noticing the frown on her face before he averted his gaze back to him. "She knows the area more than I do. Besides, she is an important person in this," he answered. Dr Ahmed sighed audibly and led the way to the table he had reserved. "This is the best restaurant in this area. You will love the food here and probably fall in love with this place because of it."Damien sat down and Bianca sat beside him, trying to calm herself and be composed. "I moved here last year and so far, there is not a reason to regret being here. The people are nice, the food is good, the view is great and relaxing," he further added which got Damien wondering if he wanted him to retire there by all means. "Well, I can't say much about that yet until I see it. From the report I got as a kid, Middle-field was a dangerous place," Damien answered a

Damien and Bianca stared at him in a daze, in awe of how quickly he had forgotten the research and his text message.Ahmed on his part was impatiently waiting for the waitress to bring in his order.Bianca slammed her hand on the table, bringing everybody's attention to her. She abruptly stood up and pointed a finger at him."What are you up to, huh? You are pretending not to know the reason why we are here?" She questioned, raising her voice.Damien held her hand to get her attention, but she pulled her hand away from his, with her attention focused on the doctor."Do you think you will get away with this?" She questioned and smirked. "Sorry to burst your bubbles, but you will have to pay your debts alone. It is an amount we can afford, but we will be cheeky enough not to."She picked up her purse and looked at Damien. "Let's go," she ordered.Damien was perplexed seeing how pissed off she was. He was pissed off too, but she was a different person.He smirked and stood up, to follow

Ahmed nodded and sat back. "It's easy to figure it out. Bianca never cared about anyone except herself and her family. For her to be here and eager to hear me, a family member caught the flu," he answered. "But why did you think it's Regina?" Damien questioned, curious to know how he easily figured it out."She looks worried. Regina is the most cared-for family. She would have lost her patient and left if it were her parents." He answered and looked at her. "I know her so well."Bianca pursed her lips, in surprise that he figured it out easily. Ahmed went on, "I will write down the medications for it which needs to be followed precisely. A day should never be missed. She will get better as long as it hasn't gotten to the fourth stage.""She is at the third stage," Damien answered, to which Ahmed nodded. "Then she needs to get treated before it's too late. This stage is treatable with surgery and treatments."Damien drew his brows and when he thought of something, he snapped his fing

Eleanor walked closer and folded her arms beneath her bosoms. "This will a big evidence to clear your name. You were with Charlotte and both of us can testify in court," she clapped her hands. "We have CCTV cameras. The footage of that night would be a big piece of evidence for you.""You are right. I was worried the scandal would rise again," he answered and she nodded in response. "It will, but as long as we come up with a way to clear your name, the scandal will be handled later," she said and let out a deep breath. "Why didn't we think of this before?""Let me finish this call and we talk about it," he said and moved away while she went back in. "Mike, are you still on?" He asked and got a hum on the other end. "Of course. I overheard everything. There is hope for this case. If we can get the evidence you were with the ladies, that would clear your name easily," he said. "Why don't you come over let's talk about this. I got something you will be interested in.""Alright. I will

Damien walked into a VIP's room with his hands in his pocket and his eyes fixed on the lady sitting on the bed. He got closer and stared at her without saying a word. "Are you going to keep staring at me? What do you want to say? Just say y now or forever hold your peace," she said with a frown plastered on her face. "What do you think I want to say?" He asked and folded his arms, waiting for an answer. Charlotte smirked and answered, "You can't be cool with everything that happened. I caused a lot of trouble for you and in the end, I still had to rely on you. There would be so much for you to say.""Caused trouble? Yes, you did, but it was never your fault. All you have to do is focus on recovering your body. Even though you are fine now, you need to relax and not think about that. We can talk about it when you are fully recovered," he said and scoffed. "I know I am to rest. You are not the one to tell me what to do." She rolled her eyes and laid back. "I will get better as soon

"Damien?" Mike called from inside. Damien looked at his wristwatch and sighed deeply. He had just a few minutes to get to his meeting with his lawyers. "Yes Mike, it's me," he answered.It took a few minutes before Mike opened the door, smiling nervously. "Williams, what are you doing here this time?"Damien drew his brows, not expecting his question. "Are you busy?" He asked and peeped in. "Or is there someone in there?" Mike glanced over his shoulder and averted his gaze back to Damien. "There is no one in there. Come in," he said and opened the door wide enough. "I guess you have something important to tell me."Damien looked around the office in suspicion, but he found no one. He wondered why Mike looked so tense if there was nobody in the office, but his thought was cut off when Mike said, "Would you like coffee? I mean, this is your first time in my office."Damien drew his brows together, wondering why he was so nice to him. Mike was always the guy who hated acting nice and w

Mike stared at her for a few minutes, still taken aback by the sudden barge in and her words. He let out a deep breath and leaned back against his seat. "You want to ruin him?" He asked with his brows furrowed. Regina quickly nodded and sat down before him. "I am tired of that man. He has succeeded in bewitching my family and now, they can't even think straight," she answered, scowling deeply. Mike let out a deep breath and folded his arms against his chest. "I thought you never wanted to see me.""I didn't come here for you to say that to me. Just help me out and I will pay you any amount you want. Name your price.""Still as rude as ever," he muttered and drew closer. "Damien met with me a few days ago and he said I should investigate you," he said, staring at her intently. Damien didn't suspect Regina. He was in denial that she would go that far in killing anyone. But deep down Mike's heart, he knew Regina had something to do with it. She was desperate.Regina's eyes went round

Bianca furrowed her brows in concern, wondering what had happened at home. She looked at the patient's guardian and said, "Please excuse me."She walked out of the ward and called Regina's number but she didn't pick up. Her heart picked up a fast race as she thought of what might have happened to her. Their last encounter before she left didn't end well. She remembered going back to Regina's room to get her purse which she left behind and heard her say something about been doomed. She walked in and saw how shocked Regina was. She got suspicious, wondering if she was scared because she said Damien had a lead. "What is going on? Why are you doomed?" She asked."Doomed? I never said that," she argued and tried to smile, but Bianca wasn't foolish. She knew she forced it."I clearly heard you say it. Why are you doomed? Because I said Damien had a lead that would prove he is not guilty?" Bianca went on to ask, staring at sister intently."Well, that's not it. The truth is, I wanted to u

Bianca walked into a patient's room who was getting fed by his wife. They both had their attention on her when she opened the door. She walked in and smiled warmly at them. "I see you are busy. I apologize for coming in now," she said."Who are you?" The woman asked, with no memory of seeing her before. "I am Bianca Calloway, a friend of Dr Damien," she introduced and went on. "I know this is too much to ask, but I need your help."The couple both glanced at each other, wondering what kind of help she needed from them. They had no idea who she was. "As long as it's something we can help with, we will gladly help you. We are done eating anyway," the wife answered. Bianca nodded and sat down. "It's about the ongoing case of the patient's death. I am sure you have heard of it," she started and they nodded in response. "Too bad a good doctor like him has to go through all these," the wife said feeling pity for him. She let out a deep breath and looked at Bianca. "By the way, I am Lis

Bianca walked into the hospital and just as luck would have it, she sighted Eric first talking to a doctor. "Just who I want to meet," she muttered and walked to him. The reporters were still not giving up and were gathered outside. Although, Damien had been able to escape being interviewed. She stood a few distance away from Eric and when he glanced at her, she waved to inform him she was there to see him. Eric drew his brows, wondering why she was in the hospital, but he ignored her and averted his attention back to the doctor to who he was talking. After what seemed like forever, the doctor finally left and she hurried to him. "Good day, Mr. Eric.""It's you again. What do you want?""I need a favor from you. A very important… favor," she said stressing the 'important' so he would know how serious she was. He stared at her for a few seconds before he let out a deep breath and said, "Come with me."She nodded and followed him, trying her best not to do anything to provoke him.

Mike stared at him for a few minutes before he smiled meticulously. "I like the sound of that," he said and drew closer. "What is this job you have for me?" The restaurant staff came in along with two other waiters, carrying their orders in a tray. The two men stopped taking as they set the food on the table. Immediately they were done, they left the room, giving them privacy. "Now tell me, what is this job I have to do?" "Someone was murdered in my hospital. Someone who doesn't deserve this painful death and the murderer wiped out every trace leading to them. The plan is to make me take the blame," Damien explained and Mike nodded, understanding his situation. "Oh, you are talking about the patient murdered in your hospital. It is popular news. That's a pretty bad one but I love cases like this," he said. "I want you to find out who did it and I want it secretly done. As long as the person could do a clean job like this, we are not dealing with a stupid one." Mike nodded.

Bianca let out a deep breath and crossed her arms beneath her bosoms. "There is no need to know. You will find out what this lead is after the person behind the patient's death is exposed and Damien's reputation is saved. For you, you can only wait patiently for that big news," she answered and walked out of the room."Damn it! This can't be. They can't find anything. I made sure to clean up every trace that would lead to me," she muttered and took her fingers in between her teeth, chewing on them. She thought of what she left behind but couldn't come up with anything. That night after she injected the young patient, she quickly left the ward and pulled off the nurse uniform. She took it back to the nurse's changing room and neatly placed it where she had seen it. She threw the infection into the trash bin, and she did that so Damien would be blamed. He was the last person to put a pack of medicine into the bin. For the CCTV footage, she had a friend who was a hacker, delete the f
