Chapter 5 - Hospital Visit

(Mavin's POV)

Through with my bath, I walked into my bedroom to wear a casual blue top and black trousers.

I walked toward my room mirror to comb my short black hair. I don't keep a beard. I stared at my neck and felt sore—there were finger scratch marks around it from when I was taking my bath. I knew it was Thelma's doing.

I frowned. My mind remembered the moment I had entered into her warmth. I was beginning to have full remembrance of what had happened between me and Thelma.

I couldn't bring myself to stop the previous night, no matter how I tried. My head ached at the remembrance, and I groaned out in annoyance.

"Damn it!" As much as the medicine—or whatever drug Mr. Adam gave me—had cleared off, I was still having hot flashes and a headache too.

I thought to warn Mr. Adam again: never to try such nonsense on me, or to follow my grandpa's orders. Unless he wanted to be fired and dealt with—by being thrown in jail.

Mr. Adam is a fifty-three-year-old man. He has been with me for a long time and likes calling me "boss." He said he usually calls me boss "to motivate me and to remind me of my rank and who I am in City B."

I sighed and walked away from my room mirror. I was through applying my perfume. I left my bedroom and went downstairs to accompany my grandfather to the hospital, as promised.

Grandpa Charlie was smiling all throughout like one who had won a trophy. He was neatly dressed in a brown garment. I walked toward the dining room to have my breakfast with him.

I took my seat at the long golden dining table, settling on a dining chair across from my grandfather. I told him, "Grandpa, I'm not happy with what you did earlier last night."

"Why did I do wrong, Mavin?" Grandpa's smile was still very bright on his old face. I knew that he knew exactly what he did.

"Aren't you the one who arranged with Mr. Adam to send that young lady to me last night? Why, Grandpa?" I was furious to say such. I had gone through my grandfather's will, and he stated that if I don't marry before the year ends, he will give out his company and hotel to the poor while he was still alive. I have only two months left before the year ends already. It was October 18.

"Don't ask me why, Mavin. And it's not like she's ugly. Or don't you like the young woman that Adam brought to you yesterday night? We can search for her again and bring her back to you, if you want her back. Or look for another woman for you," Grandpa said, as he awaited Angela to step out of the kitchen with his herbal tea. But I replied, "No, Grandpa. I don't need her again. And don't ever try to do such with me again. I won't take it lightly with you." I slightly warned my grandpa, and he sighed, "Hmm."

Angela is the head maid in my mansion. The luxurious mansion belonged to me. I bought it five years ago, when I turned twenty-five years old. We moved out from the old family house, which was our general family house and Grandpa's house too.

"Good morning, boss. What should I serve you this morning?" Angela politely asked me. She was done serving my grandfather his herbal tea, the way he likes it.

I sighed and stared away from my Grandpa's face to look at Angela's fair-skinned face. She is a middle-aged woman. Most of the female staff working in my mansion are middle-aged, well except for the younger maids who were recently employed by my grandpa. I wasn't so familiar with them, as my mansion is very large and spacious with several guest rooms.

"Just tea and bread. Make it fast, as we're already running late," I told Angela and stared away from her to the dining room wall clock. I saw it was 9 a.m.

I sighed once more. I knew my grandpa's treatment time was around 10 a.m. with his doctor. So I waited for Angela to serve my breakfast too.

Through with my tea, with Grandpa at the dining table, I stood up and escorted my Grandpa outside to my car. He sat in the backseat. I shut the back door for him and hopped into my driving seat.

I started my car engine and drove out of my premises. I drove around the city by myself. I arrived at the magnificent Saint Peter Hospital in City B, drove into the hospital parking lot, and parked my car.

I stepped down from my car and walked over to the second side door to assist my Grandpa in stepping down. We walked into the hospital lobby.

So far, my mind kept thinking about the pretty lady I had slept with the previous night. The way her body was so soft and made me aroused. Whenever I stared at any pretty lady with blonde hair in the OPD section of the hospital, my mind skipped a beat at times, thinking the blonde lady was Thelma.

"Oh, oh!..." I grimaced. My grandpa stared at my face and asked me, "What's the matter with you, Mavin? Are you still thinking about the young lady again?"

"No, Grandpa," I replied coldly. We walked to sit on a chair. I escorted Grandpa to wait in the OPD waiting room.

I took out my phone and slid the phone screen to unlock it. I swiftly placed a call to my office assistant, Henry Black.

"Hello, boss," Henry spoke to me as the phone call connected. He answered on the second ring.

"Inform Mrs. Tonia Briggs that I won't be arriving to the office on time today. I went to the hospital with Grandpa. She should reschedule most of my business meetings with the top clients at noon. You can attend to the rest who are arriving." I let Henry know. He is my trusted assistant in the office, helping me monitor all my company activities in my absence too.

"Alright, boss. Anything else?" Henry asked me, and I replied, "No. That's all."

I quickly ended the phone call and continued to sit, waiting for the queue to reduce and for it to get to my Grandpa's turn.

Soon, we stood up from the guest seat and walked into the doctor's office.

Grandpa is a seventy-five-year-old man. Yet he could walk without a walking stick and was still mischievous in nature.

"Good morning, Mr. White," Doctor Amari Hanks smiled at us. She is my Grandpa's favorite doctor.

Grandpa loves women to treat him and touch him. Doctor Amari asked my Grandpa, "How are you feeling today, Grandpa Charlie White?"

"I'm good, Doc," Grandpa replied with a smile. But I was silent as I sat beside Grandpa on the guest chair.

My mind was preoccupied with new memories of the previous night between me and Thelma. With the fact that Mr. Adam had told me he didn't pay Thelma off, I felt guilty as I kept remembering all the nasty things I had done to her when I was making love to her.

I couldn't believe that what Mr. Adam had given me would have such a strong effect on me. I really needed to find Thelma quickly, so I could pay her off for the night we spent together and stop feeling guilty about my actions with her.

"Are you feeling fine today, Mr. Mavin?" Doctor Amari asked me. She loves calling me by my first name instead.

I met her large brown eyes staring at me and replied to her, "Yes, I'm fine, Doc. Attend to my grandpa first. I'm not a patient," I said.

"But you're sweating much, despite the air conditioning being on in my office. Sometimes it's good to do a bodily checkup on yourself and not wait until your body totally collapses before you do a checkup." Doctor Amari advised me politely. I replied to her, "Okay, Doc. I will put that into consideration, but not today. I didn't plan to do any checkup, and I have a business meeting to attend to by 12 p.m."

I was still feeling pain, but I didn't want to be confined in a hospital bed.

Doctor Amari smiled sadly and said, "Alright. It's just a friendly advice, Mr. Mavin. But I can run a quick checkup on you if you want it fast."

Doctor is a married woman, yet she still has a flirtatious tongue that irritated me the most. She is a young lady and a horny doctor by her looks. It's so clearly written all over her face and her bodily movement, and with the way her large brown eyes shone seductively at me, like a happy puppy.

At least now I understood better why she has so many sick patients waiting outside her office door and on the queue. Even those who were not truly sick would love to visit her hospital and have her touch their skin.

I guessed that's why my Grandpa also always loves to visit her hospital. The hospital belongs to her family and was long passed down to her as her inheritance, since the hospital was an enormous building.

I heard Dr. Amari was happily married. I'm so sure that Grandpa would have been wishing that Doctor Amari was a single young lady, so he could propose to her on my behalf.

But then, I didn't like her. I only tolerated her flirtatious face and tongue because of my grandpa and the fact that she is now my family doctor.

"Grandpa, you look so happy today. What's the good news about?" Doctor Amari finally asked Grandpa with a smile. She was done checking Grandpa's vital signs. Grandpa smiled at her and replied, "I'm just happy to meet with you today, Doc."

"Mm," Doctor Amari blushed. Her large brown eyes shone again, reminding me of the large blue-eyed lady I had slept with the previous night.

"That's good to hear, Grandpa. I have written out some of your new medication. You can meet with the nurses on duty to hand it over to you before you leave. Thank you for visiting us today, Grandpa," Doctor Amari said to Grandpa as we stood up to leave her office.

"Thanks," Grandpa replied to her. But I didn't say a word. I finally exited her office with Grandpa, and we went home shortly after collecting Grandpa's medicine from the hospital pharmacy.
