Impending Lawsuit
“The Doctor says you are threatening to sue us…” Brian remarked, his voice barely above a whisper.Wendy arched her brows, turning to face the Doctor with wide eyes.She didn’t utter any sound, but it was already looking like she was about to deny that claim.“Is that right?” Brian inquired, his wry smile unwavering. Wendy still had her eyes on Leon, and when she was ready to speak, she cleared her throat twice before she turned to face the man who had questioned her.“Take a look at my husband, Sir…” She sniffled, leaving everyone stunned as a result of the tears that raced out of her eyes. “He was just working hard and trying to fend for his family. He promised me that he was going to be back early today so that he could massage my feet. Now look at him, lying there like a log of wood.” Her voice was shaky, and no matter how hard she sniffled, she couldn’t get rid of the tears that were trickling down her face. “Take it easy, Wendy…” Leon paused, instantly regretting his u
The Demand
“Yes!” Leon quickly got up, adjusted his coat, and moved toward Brian and Diego. He stood about a meter before them, yet he couldn’t lift his eyes to look at them.“Doctor?” Brian called out in a low tone, but that still couldn’t make the Doctor look up.“You seem to be very concerned about Miss Duncan. If I didn’t know any better, I would have concluded that you were her husband and not Cole here…” Leon instinctively lifted his face, but could only stare at Brian for a nanosecond. “I always make sure that my patients are in good health, Mr. Brian. Their welfare is my priority…” “Of course…” Brian chuckled softly, then he cleared his throat. “So…” He continued with a voice barely above a whisper, still giving the Doctor a piercing stare while his wry smile was still intact. “What’s the way forward? How do we take care of this man?” He pointed to Cole, the same concern glittering in his eyes. Before he could say even a word, Leon turned to Wendy as though she was the Do
The Worker’s Wife
The Concierge turned to face Brian at once, and then he sighed heavily.He didn’t need to be told that he was pissed, and even when their eyes met, he didn’t know what exactly to tell him. “Come on, Diego. Let’s go…” Brian broke his silence, and then he made his way out of the ward after one last look at the men in pain. He walked silently, following the Doctor who didn’t even care to look back. Brian had to walk as fast as he could the moment he saw the Doctor walking toward another hallway. Diego followed at once, but he was reminded of how weak his bones were getting. The Doctor walked into the emergency ward and left the door open.Brian joined him inside at once, turning his eyes toward the right corner of the large room.The man they had come to see lay on a stretcher, badly injured with his chest moving up and down. His entire body was covered in blood, the mask covering his mouth and nose seeming like the only thing still holding his breath. The bandages and p
The Good Doctor
“We are here to see them…” Diego pointed at the casement window, his eyes on the construction workers he could see. “Them?” The Doctor pointed as well, his eyes still on the old man. “Who are you to them, Sir? If I may ask…” His voice was low, yet his curiosity kept lingering in his wide eyes.Diego cleared his throat, turning to take a glance at Brian before he spoke. “They work for us, Doctor. The incident occurred in our site…” “Oh…” The Doctor switched his countenance in haste, but it was hard to really tell what he was thinking.First, he moved his gaze to Brian, staring at him as though he was attempting to read his mind.By the time he returned his gaze to the Concierge, there was a look of annoyance in his eyes, sparking slowly. “You are the reason why that young man is fighting for his life, Sir…” He fired shots of accusation with his eyes, staring deep into the Concierge’s orbs. “How could you?” He took a deep breath, showing a lingering disapproval.“How c
The Unplanned Invitation
Brian sighed heavily, then he withdrew his gaze from the window to face the Concierge.“What President?” He asked calmly, looking the old man in the eyes.“The President of this country, Young Master.” Diego retorted, his voice barely above a whisper. “Hmm…” Brian grunted, then he exhaled sharply. “What does he want?” He asked without any hint of interest in his tone, his expression lacking any form of curiosity. “I am not sure, Master Brian…” Diego replied calmly, withdrawing his gaze from Brian for a second. “But I think it has something to do with the situation with the Mayor of this City.”“I see…” Brian scoffed, and a smirk appeared on his face.“Did Shawn run to him like a crybaby?” He asked the question without expecting an answer, even when he turned to face the Concierge. Then he took a deep breath, letting it out slowly.“When?”“The message didn’t come with any specific time, Master Brian. But I am certain that the President would want to see you as soon as
Everyone Withdrawn
“You did this?!” Ruben inquired as though he didn’t hear him the first time, eyes burning like a furnace. “You are a funny man, Ruben…” Brian took over, stepping forward while he turned to Stephen.“You too…” He chuckled softly before he turned to face Kelvin.But he had nothing to say to him, just a huff was enough to pass his message. The Attorney was ready to crawl away, seeing that the game had been taken over by the Master Strategist. “Diego told me about the Carrick brothers while we were still on our way to this place. He gave me all the information that I needed…” He paused to clear his throat, turning his eyes from one brother to the other.“You needed to see my surprise when I learned that you guys borrowed some money from us last year, just to keep your business afloat.” He scoffed, then he shook his head. “Yet you dared to try to steal my land from under my nose…” “That’s not your money, Brian! That’s people’s money!” Ruben sparked, a rising denial in his tone
