There is a member of the Hutton family in my hospital right now? I have to make up for everything that has happened? What the hell has happened?! I'll lose my life and my hospital if I don't end up pleasing the member of the Hutton family who I've committed a grave sin against even though I've been home all day?The woman, who carries Catherine Garfield is perplexed and shocked at the same time.She's shocked because a member of the Hutton family visited her hospital! But then perplexed because she doesn't understand a thing that is going on. She's been home all day, how could she have offended the member of the Hutton family? This is so frustrating!She should be overjoyed that a prestigious member of the Hutton family is currently in her hospital as it is a great honor, but instead, she is terrified. Extremely terrified!Why didn't Chad notify her that a member of the Hutton family was on his way to her hospital so she could personally attend to him? Fuck! She is so exasperated! God
The fast-paced thumping of her feet against the floored floor as she moves is loud for everyone to hear. Her face is flushed and her whole body is drenched in sweat. Her hair is splattered all over her face and she is almost dropping a tear. She has never found herself in such a state before. Her heart is panting laboriously.The few people in the lobby are staring at her with their mouths agape as they recognize who she is! Why wouldn't they? This is the prestigious CEO of Silver Crest Hospital! This hospital! Most of them, even though they are big shots, never dreamed of meeting her one on one at this time in their lives! They're almost jumping up and down with joy! What an honor!"It's truly her! It's truly her! Oh my god!""Wow, she looks more beautiful than her pictures across the web and social media platforms give her credit for!""But...,"They can't help but halt their babbles and crease their brows as they notice how exasperated she is and her unprofessional attire. "What'
He is Lucian Wood? Catherine is rendered speechless. When Chad Kennedy told her a member of the Hutton family is in her hospital, she assumed he would be a man in his forties or older. This is because Chad spoke so highly of him. She had also felt fear in Chad's tone as he spoke about him. It was as if he is afraid of whoever the member of the Hutton family is. For all she knows, Chad is not even afraid of the direct descendants of the Hutton family as he works directly under Mr. Michael, the patriarch of the Huttons family. And from her research, the direct descendants of the Huttons are all middle-aged men and women. Some are even way past middle age. So since Chad was afraid of him and the direct descendants are middle aged and above, she felt that the guest Chad talked about must be Mr. Michael's brother or brother's son, therefore, he should be in his forties or older.That, however, to her amazement, is not the case in any way! As she takes in Lucian's features, she can tell t
"Doctor Bertram, yea, hey, are you still in the hospital? Yes, it's me. You are just coming out from the theater and about to head home? Oh, good, good! Thank goodness! Yes, I have something I want you to take care of."Come to the lobby, I'm standing in front of the receptionist's counter. I know. I know. You don't have to tell me. It's very important. Yes, I have an esteemed patient I need you to attend to. Of course, I'm in the hospital! Come down here right away! Alright. Don't keep me waiting."She drops back the telephone on the counter, turns to Lucian, and says politely, "Doctor Bertram is the best doctor in this hospital, Mr. Wood, he is second only to me. He is both a medical doctor and a great surgeon. "He just came out of the theater. Had a successful operation. He'll be here shortly. Before that, could you please tell me what happened to the young girl?"Lucian does not find the question offensive, so he answers honestly and succinctly, "I rescued her from being raped to
Catherine's heart leaps into her belly. Just now, this young man looked so calm, as if he can't hurt a fly. He resembled a perfect gentleman with a big heart. But now, he looks more like a ferocious ripper who can't wait to rip off the hearts of his offenders. The abrupt switch is so alarming!She didn't think he'd let her go without her making up for everything her employees did, but she actually hoped he would because she's been so respectful and polite to him. But she can see now that he is having none of it! He is no pushover and doesn't have a big heart. She is really still in very big trouble.She swallows a clump of spittle and wipes sweat from her forehead with her handkerchief. His statement has just made her break into a cold sweat. Thank goodness Marc handed her that kerchief before she rushed out of the car. "Su... Sure, Sir! I promise to make up for everything!" She stutters, shuddering.Before he can say anything, Lucian's phone blinks and begins ringing. He brings it o
Catherine drops anchor on Lucian's feet. She holds onto one of his legs and begins bawling her eyes out. She can't find any words to express how she feels. She can only sob.Lucian frowns. He has never liked seeing the female gender cry. No matter their age, seeing them cry pricks his heart. He lets out a long sigh. He is deeply moved by her tears. Should he just let it go? He speculates, biting on his fingernails. The thought, however, does not last long as he instantly deletes it the moment the images of everything the employees did to him flash before his eyes.He kicks Catherine's hands off his leg and takes two steps backward to create enough space between them. "You caused all this, Catherine. Do you think tears can solve it all? You better get your ass up and take responsibility for your sins!"I'm wondering what you thought was gonna come out of it all when you achieved fame and then thought that you were God! You have the opportunity to save so many souls, but you chose mone
Lucian is rendered speechless. His family never ceases to amaze him. He hasn't known about them for long as he only got to find out about his real identity today, but he can confidently say that they live up to their status! Even the best hospital's security system is a trivial thing for them to exploit! Thinking deeper into that, he can see that it wouldn't have taken Chad up to a minute to destroy this hospital. Why would it when he could easily tap into the hospital's security system?He can't help but realize how lucky of a woman Catherine is to have chosen to listen to him. He can't start to imagine what would have happened to her if she didn't. Perhaps, she would have been reduced to the status of a pauper by now.He chuckles at the image of her clad in shabby clothes flashing through his mind and accepts the card from the burly tall figure."Thank you," he mouths discreetly."Just doing my job, boss," the tall burly figure responds playfully and bows.Lucian rolls his eyes a
Lucian is at a loss for words and doesn't know how to feel as he stares at the popped-up statement. He's suddenly become emotional. Not long ago, he used to struggle to feed himself or get anything for himself. Hardly got anything for himself. Where did he see money?He was at the very bottom in societal status. A poor wretch and everyone's laughingstock. People never missed an opportunity to chastise him and tell him where he was coming from. He merely managed to finish college as a result of the scholarship he was on and because he felt his breakthrough was in his education. It can't be forgotten that he also lost his girlfriend, whom he adored, all because of the same thing.But now everything has changed and he can easily fork out $400 million to purchase an already-built hospital just because he doesn't like how they treat people of lower status. Now, he can easily purchase anything he desires. His eyes are welling up with tears. And he can't help but let them flow. He slowly w
