Damien feels on top of the world. If Leon is no longer in Helen's corner, then he has won this battle halfway. Leon wasn't easy to beat into submission, but he has done it. Since he can't seem to get rid of Leon, it's the next best thing to do to have him as the head Doctor. He will take all the glory, while Leon does all the work in the background. It is with this delightful smile that Damien goes to the office to see Helen. She has summoned him, like she does many times. “Good morning, sister.” He sits down before she even asks him to. “Have you seen Leon? He just appeared out of the blue once again.” “Yes, yes. I am just happy he is back because I have a lot of surgeries for him.” She says absent mindedly. She knows that Damien had something to do with Leon's disappearance, but she is not going to push it. For Leon's sake. “Damien, I was supposed to make an appearance at the annual Charity for children with cancer. I have made the donations already, I just need a represent

The nurse's heart has been heavy from the day that she lied against Leon because of the fear she has of Damien. She hasn't eaten well for days, and she cries in the night because she is sure that the Major has killed Leon. She sees Helen Shankly going about, looking for Leon, and she tries to make the move to say something to her, but her heart fails her many times. She also thought of going to see Major Smith to tell him that she made a mistake, but she is so weak in spirit and mind. That doesn't mean that she doesn't come for her shift every single day. She keeps up a brave face, but her heart skips anytime she sees Helen, or whenever Damien smirks in her direction. She is preparing to go and attend to her fourth patient for the day, when she suddenly gasps and holds her chest in fright. “Are you a ghost?! Doctor Leon, are you really in front of me?!” She shudders. Leon laughs as he gets close to her. He drops his hands on her shoulders to comfort her, and also to show her th

The shoebox slips from MJ's hand and the money falls to the ground in slow motion. She didn't expect this from Leon at all. Its true that she has found herself to be falling for the man she met few months ago, but she was hoping that he would ask her to be his girlfriend. The wife thing is a huge leap for her. Leon sees the mixture of fear and shock in her eyes, so he immediately cups her cheeks and speaks to her softly. “MJ, I know this is coming as a shock to you, but I have never been more sure of something. I love you, MJ, and I will be the happiest man if you agree to marry me.” He says. Her eyes wells with tears. “Leon, are you sure of what you are saying?” Leon's eyebrows bunches. Is she having second thoughts about this? Maybe it's because his ex-wife, Selina, told her all those lies. “I know Selina told you a lot of lies about me. It's true that I am poor and an orphan, but I promise you that I will work myself to death to give you comfort. I will be the best husban

Leon knew that day for a very long time. This is the day that his friendship with MJ would be put to the test. After she has heard that he has a heavy debt on his head, she slumps back into her seat and stares at the ceiling. “They want you dead?” She asks. “They just want their money.” Leon runs his hands over his face. “They beat me so hard, I don't think I will be able to recover mentally from this for a very long time.” “Jesus,” MJ mutters. “Well, how much is it?” Leon thinks about the question very carefully. Then, he answers. “A hundred thousand dollars.” “Oh, Leon…” MJ heaves, her hand pressed over her mouth. “I know, it's bad, I'm a terrible person.” Leon shakes his head. “It was hard because my mother was sick, and I had to attend medical school. It was the only way out, I'm not proud of it.” MJ stands up and starts to pace around the room. She has never had to worry about money in her life, not until now. The truth of the matter is that MJ has never really had th

Leon refuse the offer that the Major made to drop him up with an entourage of soldiers. Although it's very cold and it's in the middle of the night, Leon has decided that it's better to walk all the way. Nomone is expecting him, and that is the best way for him. He feels like he is going to faint on the way, but he keeps on pushing. He is in the outskirts of the city, it will take him about an hour and a half to at least get into the city, but maybe he will be lucky to find a taxi on this lonely road. Suddenly he sees the sign of lights approaching. He stops and waves his hands up and down. He hopes he doesn't get snubbed. Its not a taxi, but a private car. Luck is on Leon's side, because the car stops anyways. The door opens and through Leon's swollen eyes, he sees that it's MJ. Is he hallucinating? what sort of coincidence is this? “Leon?!” She screams as she rushes towards him. Leon is so weak that he falls down to his knees. At least if he dies at this point, MJ will be

The Major snorts with disbelief. “What the hell are you talking about? It was a bit confusing because two people claimed to be the one who saved him, but I was able to fish out the culprit! Are you trying to tell me that I don't know what I am doing?!” Mister Grayson takes off his jacket and walks to Leon. “Major, I'm not saying that you are an imperfect person, but all I can say is that I saw this very man perform an impossible surgery on my father, and he survived. If one of those doctors was a quack, it's not this one.” The Major is shocked, he never makes mistakes, but he was utterly fooled by Damien. The fact that Damien was also the brother of the popular Doctor Helen Shankly, that helped him sell the lie better. The lawyer is struggling to take Leon off the chains, but then the Major snaps his fingers and some soldiers comes into the place and help. Leon is almost passed out when he is laid on the ground. He is covered in sweat and blood. This has got to be the hardest t
