The Vial
The nurse froze, standing right in front of the sick man. She could only roll her bulging eyes, struggling to catch her breath.âIs there any problem, sir?â Leon asked, staring at Brian. âNoâŚâ Brian shook his head while his eyes were still on the nurse. âWhat is that?â He pointed at the stainless steel, preparing to take a step forward. Leon scoffed. âThatâs medication for Mr. Duncan, sir. You speak as though you are looking at something elseâŚââWhat kind of medication?â Brian questioned, and then he turned to give the Doctor a piercing stare. âI⌠IâŚâ Leon stuttered, forced to take a deep breath. âI do not understand what you are saying, sir. I think you should allow the nurse to do her job. Mr. Duncan needs to be given those injections. They would make his blood pressure stable while we prepare him for surgery.â âHmm?â Brian nodded, slowly returning his gaze to the nurse.âTo keep his blood pressure stable, you say?ââYesâŚâ Leon gave a quick response, nodding to af
Considerable Wife
âWhat did you just say?â Diegoâs eyes were widened, his jaw dropped while he stared at the lady.Any other person would have gasped, his eyes glaring with a rising annoyance. âI am sure I spoke plain English, Sir.â Wendy sounded a bit arrogant, rolling her eyes at the baby. âI heard your company is one of the top Tech companies in Lakeville. So paying a hundred million dollars in damages shouldnât be a problem for youâŚâ Brian scoffed, taking his eyes off the lady.Apart from the greed that was etched on the ladyâs face, he could also sense her ignorance. âDo you know who I am?â He asked, pointing to himself while he maintained his wry smile. Wendy looked at him from hair to the soles of his shoes, and it seemed as though she was also making use of that opportunity to size him up.âI donât knowâŚâ She muttered, returning her gaze to Brianâs face.âI am assuming that you are the Manager of the Company, and this man could be your driver.â She pointed to Diego without looking
Impending Lawsuit
âThe Doctor says you are threatening to sue usâŚâ Brian remarked, his voice barely above a whisper.Wendy arched her brows, turning to face the Doctor with wide eyes.She didnât utter any sound, but it was already looking like she was about to deny that claim.âIs that right?â 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.âTake a look at my husband, SirâŚâ She sniffled, leaving everyone stunned as a result of the tears that raced out of her eyes. âHe 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.â Her voice was shaky, and no matter how hard she sniffled, she couldnât get rid of the tears that were trickling down her face. âTake it easy, WendyâŚâ Leon paused, instantly regretting his u
The Demand
âYes!â Leon quickly got up, adjusted his coat, and moved toward Brian and Diego. He stood about a meter before them, yet he couldnât lift his eyes to look at them.âDoctor?â Brian called out in a low tone, but that still couldnât make the Doctor look up.âYou seem to be very concerned about Miss Duncan. If I didnât know any better, I would have concluded that you were her husband and not Cole hereâŚâ Leon instinctively lifted his face, but could only stare at Brian for a nanosecond. âI always make sure that my patients are in good health, Mr. Brian. Their welfare is my priorityâŚâ âOf courseâŚâ Brian chuckled softly, then he cleared his throat. âSoâŚâ He continued with a voice barely above a whisper, still giving the Doctor a piercing stare while his wry smile was still intact. âWhatâs the way forward? How do we take care of this man?â 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 Workerâs Wife
The Concierge turned to face Brian at once, and then he sighed heavily.He didnât need to be told that he was pissed, and even when their eyes met, he didnât know what exactly to tell him. âCome on, Diego. Letâs goâŚâ 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 didnât 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
âWe are here to see themâŚâ Diego pointed at the casement window, his eyes on the construction workers he could see. âThem?â The Doctor pointed as well, his eyes still on the old man. âWho are you to them, Sir? If I may askâŚâ 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. âThey work for us, Doctor. The incident occurred in our siteâŚâ âOhâŚâ 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. âYou are the reason why that young man is fighting for his life, SirâŚâ He fired shots of accusation with his eyes, staring deep into the Conciergeâs orbs. âHow could you?â He took a deep breath, showing a lingering disapproval.âHow c
