“What are they talking about?” Adrian asked himself with a confused look on his face as he glanced at Daniel and the same weird man he had spoken to earlier. He was worried. He knew the man was up to no good. Why did he go and meet his partner of all people? He asked himself but he couldn't get an answer to it. “Get inside. Let's go,” Chloe, who didn't notice what was going on, said as she held the knob of the door. “Adrian?” She called out to him when she noticed that he wasn't paying attention to her and he was staring at someone else. He heard her calling him but he was keen to know why the man that challenged him was speaking with Daniel, who was his partner. “What could he be thinking about? And what is he looking at?” she asked herself with a confused look on her face. She looked up and a soft gasp escaped from her lips as her gaze landed on Martin, who was discussing with Daniel. “What could he be telling him?” She muttered and Adrian turned to her when he heard her ques
“What if I told him that you're a local doctor? Aren't you?” Daniel asked in a cold tone and Adrian looked up with an angry and shocked expression on his face. “That's not possible. You didn't tell him, right?” Adrian asked in a concerned tone and Daniel scoffed. “What's with the look? I told him, "So what's the problem?” Daniel asked in a cold tone and he groaned out with a frustrated look on his face. “How could you tell him that I'm a local doctor? Can't you tell that he's someone that you shouldn't entrust my secret to and besides, he seems to be a powerful individual,” he said and Daniel shrugged. “I know and that's the reason why I told him the truth. I can't afford to offend someone like him. And besides, he paid me a lot of money,” Daniel said and rubbed his hand on his hair. “How could you tell him? You don't know the implication of what you've just done. I bet you don't know.”“How could you stoop so low and give me out to him because of your love of money? I know that
“It seems someone misses me,” he said as he approached them and they nodded their heads quickly. “Yes. We missed you, Mr. Adrian.”“Where have you been?”“Why didn't you open the shop? We have been worried whether something is wrong with you,” one of them said and he shrugged. “Worried about me or worried that I wouldn't be able to treat you if anything happens to me,” he demanded and they kept quiet. “It's still the same. Not like it's different,” one of the people, who were waiting for him, replied in a hoarse tone. He shook his head with a sigh and reached out for the key inside his pocket then insisted it inside the keyhole and opened the door.His patient pushed the door open because of his condition and they walked inside the shop. “Please treat me first. I came earlier,” one of them said and the other one disagreed. “That's not true. I came earlier than you but I went to do something so I returned to meet you,” he said. “Why did you leave if your health is important to y
By the time Adrian arrived home, he was tired and his body was aching seriously. He took a deep breath as he stood before the door and glanced at it with uncertainty in his heart. He couldn't stop feeling bad for what he said to Mr. Daniel. Mr. Daniel looked hurt and heartbroken after he made such a statement. He wished he could reverse what he said but it was too late. The deed has already been done. He could only beg him and ask for his forgiveness to soothe his heart. I knocked at the door and the door creaked open, revealing Daniel who was in a singlet and a short. “Welcome,” he said casually and turned to the left. “Daniel,” he called him back but Daniel pretended as though he didn't hear him. “Please don't leave yet,” he said and Daniel stopped on his track then turned to him. “What's the problem?” Mr. Daniel asked with a cold look on his face and he hit on his lower lips, unaware of what to say or do. “About what I said to you earlier. I know I shouldn't have judged you
The next day, he opened his eyes as his alarm blared out loudly. He groaned out with a frustrated look on his face and reached out to the alarm on the table then put it off. “Why do you have to disturb me, huh?” He asked and stood up from the bed. He yawned and rubbed his hand on his eyes. He reached out to the crutches on the floor and clenched them close to himself. “Ahh…” he grunted out in pain as he struggled to climb down from the bed with the crutches. He limped toward the nightstand where his phone was ringing. He reached out to it and picked it up from the nightstand. He rested his arm on crutches and swiped through the phone with his right hand. He arched his eyebrows with a confused look on his face as he stared at the caller ID, which turned out to be Chloe. Why is she talking to him? He asked himself but he couldn't get an answer to it. He took a deep breath and picked the call then placed the phone close to his ears. “Hello,” he spoke up in his cold tone. “Hello,
“You'll burn down my burn for what? What have I done wrong? So it's my fault treating you,” Adrian said in a calm tone. He remained indifferent and unfazed. He didn't care. He was ready for whatever that was going to happen because he knew that the illness should have healed up by then. “Don't give us that crap. It seems you don't care about your life, huh?” one of those men asked with an angry look on his face. “I do but you have to give me a few details before you can conclude that I'm sent to him or whatever.”“Or is this how you're going to treat me even after treating you for free?” Adrian asked in an annoyed tone and they scoffed. “That's the main reason why I'm suspicious of you. Who else gives medicine for free in this recession, huh?” The man spoke up in a harsh tone and he took a deep breath. Adrian bit on his lower lips and clenched into his crutches then approached the man, who glared at him disdainfully. “What are you doing?” One of those men asked and surrounded th
“What are you talking about?” The man blinked twice and looked away. “I don't know unless you tell me the person who paid you to frame me,” Adrian said in a cold and firm tone. The man looked up and glanced at his face then looked away quickly. “How did this cripple doctor know too much?” He asked himself but he couldn't get an answer. He couldn't get the reason why Adrian was able to uncover his flaws within seconds just after touching his hand and checking his pulse. Adrian smirked discreetly when he noticed the look on the old man's face. He knew what the old man was hiding. What the man didn't know was that he wasn't only a local doctor but he was a smart one indeed. The man admitted to the claims that he changed the prescription but he didn't tell anyone who told him to change the prescription. The man does not know the medical field so he couldn't change the drugs anyhow. And besides, he was desperate. It could be whether he was convinced to change the prescription or som
“How could you do such a thing?” Adrian began to blame him and Daniel didn't like it. “Fine. I shouldn't have done such a thing but I have no choice,” Daniel said and Smith stared at him with a confused look on his face. “What do you mean? You have always had a choice. You made it so what are you saying about it?” He asked with an angry look on his face. “You won't blame me. Not like it's my fault anyway.”“If you'd listened to me when I told you to stop giving free meditation, I wouldn't have done such a thing but you didn't listen instead you ignored me,” Daniel said and he shrugged. “How could you do such a thing because of that, huh? What if that man went overboard and burned down this place just like he'd threatened?” Adrian half-yelled and he shook his head with a sigh. “Fine. I shouldn't have done it. And I'm very sorry. Please forgive me,” he said and Adrian scoffed. “Get the hell out of my face,” he said in a cold tone and Daniel nodded his head. “You won't forgive me
