The deluxe window curtain parted softly as Carlton moved closer to the French window in his room, revealing a breathtaking view of a meticulously landscaped garden and compound that illustrated glamor. Everywhere around the huge mansion was extremely silent, and he could clearly hear the cascading waters of the fountain in sight, only to be distracted by the double door which parted open as his assistant, James, made his way inside. "Good morning, Mr. Howard. I have been informed that a new doctor will be appointed for you today, sir," James informed Carlton from where he was standing. "Okay," he replied concisely, and did not lift his gaze away from the same spot he had been staring at for minutes. There were so many thoughts that constantly plagued his mind, and it was hard to free himself from those worries. "This time should be better. They said this doctor is so good, and excels at every given job. She is a new doctor in the hospital, and her personal details have been sent to
"So, how was your new client? Does he look like a jerk already?" Nadia asked Stacy as they sat to eat dinner together with curiosity. Stacy came back to the hospital earlier than she predicted and had been busy since her arrival, which made it difficult for her and Nadia to hold a conversation till evening. "The client?" Stacy stared at her blankly, with so much indecisiveness about what to say to her, "Greater than I expected," she chuckled hard. Regardless of how happy she was that she had a friend to talk to in just a few weeks of arriving, there was no way she could tell Nadia that her new client was her ex-husband. It was nearly impossible to even explain or say. It was so hard. Stacy's plan to switch Carlton from being her client was thwarted when she returned to the hospital that day, due to the intentions of her superiors who had assigned her as his doctor.Julia did not pass on the proposal she submitted to the department head, who had the authority to approve her reques
The overwhelming and shocking feeling of seeing Stacy suddenly introduce herself as his doctor, was too sudden for Carlton, and he could not wrap his head around the reality that hit him abruptly. His heart skipped a beat as their eyes met, and he saw a mix of different emotions play across her face – shock, fear, uncertainty, and maybe pity. She looked just as beautiful and gracious as he remembered, and he hesitated for a moment, unsure of how to call her. But his longing and curiosity got the best of him, and he mustered the courage to call her name at the moment. Before he could utter the next word after she said all that she wanted, she turned and left the house immediately, leaving him dumbfounded and confused about what to do. For years he had wondered where she left to, and how she was doing after she was said to have been disowned by her father. His accident made things harder because all focus was on his recovery, and he blamed himself for everything that went wrong in both
James came back home from the office at exactly the time that was stipulated for a break between the patient and doctor, and he was surprised to see Carlton still sitting responsibly in his chair, after his first session had ended quite early with Stacy because she came late. His mind also traveled back to the instructions which were given to him by Carlton the previous day, not to decrease the number of hours that were supposed to be allocated for his medical sessions as discussed initially. Glad that his boss might finally get a better life to rest and a chance to redeem himself, the good assistant hoped positively that Stacy's presence might be for a good course."Hi, James. Please is there anything we can do concerning the security here? Driving my car miles away is stressful already, but they make it harder at the gate by requesting times without numbers, my authenticity of being here," Stacy asked James politely as soon as she saw him enter. Coupled with the fact that she was al
An elegant lady walked through the five-star restaurant which stood as a symbol of elegance and sophistication, and its exterior exuded an air of opulence that was well harmonized with splendid and beautiful ambient lighting which cast an illumination upon the exquisite artwork that adorned the walls.A gust of warm air brushed against her cheeks as she made her way towards the table that had been reserved for her, with her eyes scanning the room and searching for a familiar face. And just sitting across the most beautiful view of the restaurant was a young, handsome man whose well-sculpted face and beautiful eyes screamed perfection, with a broad smile spreading over his cheeks. "Oh my goodness, Liam. Is this really you?" Stacy exclaimed with so much delight in her voice, as she made her way towards the table with more quickened steps that were still elegant. Her gold dress, which was a masterpiece of design crafted from luxurious silk that shimmered at every step, accentuated her c
"Mr. Howard cannot take sessions today," Stacy had the word slapped to her face so early in the morning that she had gotten herself so prepared for the day, and made sure to get to CARLHILLS residence as early as she could. 'You can do it, Stacy. You can!' she had told herself many times as she navigated nervously into the deluxe neighborhood. It was less than twenty-four hours after she had driven out there with so much frowning the previous day, and yet returning felt like she would have so many questions to answer about her behavior which was uncalled-for as a doctor. If Carlton decided to let go of everything they shared and submit just a report against her, then she was as good as gone from the hospital. Though she didn't plan to work at a highly recommended place like that, her good will had somehow found her a nice job with great pay at WILLAND hospital. Working in a place like that would make her CV even more presentable for better jobs that would send her better exposure. S
"Why did you not tell me that you are coming to this hospital to work?! OMG!" Stacy slapped Liam playfully on his back, the moment she entered the hospital and found the person that she was looking for. She could barely hold her wits to herself after Nadia told her, and had called his phone many times to confirm it was his own Liam Wilson, but his phone was unreachable no matter how many times she tried to call him. Carlton didn't end up coming downstairs for his session even when she waited longer, and James told her that she could leave for the day because Carlton was still so busy with work. She drove straight to the hospital after she left CARLHILLS neighborhood, and arrived just in time to see the most surprising person coming out of the department head's office. "Are you that happy to see me?" His voice twinkled with excitement when he saw how bewildered she was when she saw him, "I didn't know news would spread this fast," he grinned."Hmph! You and your crazy surprises. Y
The bright rays of the sun permeated through the drapes of the window in the living room, and assaulted Stacy's eyes, who was sleeping comfortably on the cold floor with a smile. Groaning at the sudden intrusion of light, she rolled non-stop as she turned her face to the other side of the room, while struggling with something silky-like in her mouth. "Shit! Shit! Oh my goodness!" She suddenly jumped up the moment her eyes simultaneously flashed open, and her eyes darted immediately to the huge golden clock that was centered in her living room. Reality hit her immediately that she had woken up late again, just twenty-eight minutes before her time for work. She turned to look around to observe the situation in the room, and was startled to see how messy everywhere was. There were empty bottles of wine lying carelessly on the table, leftover food and clothes littered everywhere like they were robbed overnight. That was when she remembered that she and Nadia had partied all night for he
