Chapter eight

 At the sound of what he just said, Doctor Joy frowned and Jennifer turned around towards her.

"Were you even listening to a word of what I have been saying?" Joy inquired with a stale stare on her face.

But before Gunther could get the chance to answer the question that had been flung towards his direction, Jennifer chimed in.

"I told you that his mother's ailment has gotten deep into his head. What he needs now is a psychiatric hospital and nothing other than that."

Gunther frowned at her, going ahead to say. "I think you are the one that needs it more. At least if it's going to help out with this bad manners of yours." Gunther replied with an emotionless expression on his face, returning his gaze to the doctor.

"Now tell me, what's the price of this VVIP section?" He inquired swiftly.

Even though the doctor was fed up and wanted to give up, she was able to contain it as it was one of her qualifications as a doctor and she went ahead to say.

"A hundred million Dollars." She shook her head.

"As I told you. It's not possible and you should forget." 

"We should get down to making the payment already." He went ahead to say.

Jennifer could no longer contain her laughter at the sound of his words, letting it go so closely that she didn't even realize when a drop of tear escaped from her eyes.

The doctor could no longer control her rising anger as she was filled to her brim.

"I have had enough of you already. Do you think that amount that I just mentioned is some child's play?" She was so close to Gunther that she was able to sense his breath.

"The fact that you are not able to doesn't mean others can't," Gunther replied.

"If I am not able to do it. Then you have the right to chase me out." Gunther replied, his facial expression laced with so much determination.

Doctor Joy was caught on a fence, finding it difficult to make her stance.

Jennifer could see it in her eyes that she was finding it difficult to make a decision and she moved ahead towards joy.

"Don't tell me that you are going to listen to this piece of junk that can even afford three square meals daily.

It's way too obvious that he is just trying to waste our time and nothing other than that." He replied swiftly.

"And what if I can?" Gunther inquired.

"I am going to burn my license as a nurse and start working as a cleaner in this same hospital." She replied.

"And what if you are not? What's going to be my catch?" She inquired further.

A smile was playing on her lips, seeing that as the perfect time to get a reward.

"You can do whatever it is that you want with me," Gunther replied.

The smile that was on her lips deepened even more until it could no longer be hidden.

"Then we have a deal," Jennifer replied.

Doctor Joy's anger soon melted. She was afraid for Gunther.

Working with Jennifer for quite a while, she could tell the type of person that she was, especially with the junior staff.

She was going to squeeze out every single one of blood that Gunther had in his body if he eventually lost that bet

"And he eventually will." She muttered under her breath

Doctor Joy wished that there was a way that she could help but she knew that there was absolutely nothing that she could do about it.

It was all Gunther's decision so he had to face every consequence that came with it.

"I'm sure he is already prepared for this." She sighed and finally went ahead to say.

"You should come with me." She finally said.

They walked gradually, navigating through doors as they finally got to the room where the payment was going to be made.

"I'm paying with my card." He replied even before the question could be asked.

He remembered that his aging father had not told him the pin and he went ahead to ask through a text.

His phone made a beeping sound a short while after and he got a message from his dad with the card pin which turned out to be his birthday.

"I'm here." Doctor Joy exclaimed, dropping the terminal on the table and reaching out the card.

Gunther swiftly handed the card over to her. Immediately she felt the texture, there was a sudden pause.

She had never felt any card so unusual and satisfying all her life. Then a thought hit her. Could it be the legendary black platinum card?"

She thought. But Doctor Joy quickly swamped out the thoughts from her mind.

There was certainly no way that someone like Gunther would have such a card.

She went through the navigation of the machine that lay before her. Going through keys and passwords at regular intervals.

"At least this is not going to be a waste," Jenifer muttered under her breath with a cold air around her aura.

Taking the card from her hands, Doctor Joy swamped into the card slot. The machine went through a series of small beeps and after a few moments, a loud beep came afterwards.

"The machine was so fast to decline. That's the fastest I have ever seen. I think if it had been recorded, it would have broken a world record." Jenifer laughed.

But Doctor Joy who had seen the message that was boldly written on the machine was awe-struck by the words.

"Successful?" The words shivered under her breath.

That was the fastest transaction that she had ever seen, especially for such a large sum of money.

"I wouldn't be so sure if I were you." She muttered out to Jennifer and finally went ahead to say after she had recovered from the shock but her voice was still plain low.

"It was successful." There was an awful silence in the hall that made her words resound multiple times.
