Theo’s POV.

I returned home to the usual emptiness.

The servants had long retired to their quarters, the bodyguards were outside, and a cold dinner was waiting for me on the dining table.

My thoughts traveled to several weeks ago. Although Dave wasn’t a noisy boy, his presence made the house more alive.

He would follow me to the company. We would always eat together. Despite his harsh remarks, I never got bored of his company.

Sigh!

That evil woman, Olivia.

She would do anything to separate me from my son. Because my grandfather favored her, she’d use every opportunity to turn him against me. Including my own son…

Strangely, I’m not a bit satisfied despite what happened today. The best way to insult someone is to demean what makes them proud.

Still, provoking Olivia wasn’t satisfying enough. Besides, that thick-skinned woman didn’t show a single sign of being provoked.

As I walked upstairs, my phone rang and I paused.

Tania’s name flashed on the screen. Why’s she calling me at

    I sighed heavily and answered, “Yes, Grandpa.”Of course, I go to work every day. I’m just returning from the company, in fact, because I headed there after spending half of the day at the hospital.“But it doesn’t seem like it,” Grandpa replied. “When you were busy giving Olivia a hard time at her workplace, how could you focus on your own work?”What exactly did Olivia go and tell Grandpa?I didn’t even get her fired, and even increased her rank. Wasn’t she supposed to be grateful?“Well, you can go ahead and keep troubling her,” Grandpa continued. “But the next time you try it, I will hold a Stakeholders’ meeting and get you demoted to a COO position. Even better, you will become jobless. A responsible President of a company shouldn’t be going around, troubling an innocent woman!!!”And the phone beeped!Grandpa had hung up.I didn’t resume walking upstairs but spent several minutes leaning against the stairs’ railing and staring at my phone. That evil woman.For every little thin

    Under the curious gazes, I was speechless.I couldn’t help but get mad at Alisha, and as if just realizing what she’d done, she covered her mouth and whispered, “Oopsies.”Ethan cleared his throat, breaking the awkward silence as everyone eagerly waited for our response. He replied, “Dr. Olivia and I are just friends. Stop jumping to conclusions.”Although nobody appeared to believe him, they all nodded concurrently. I didn’t expect Ethan to give them that response.It’s probably because he didn’t want to make me feel uncomfortable.The party continued, but my thoughts kept on straying. I managed to eat some of the food, and as I started sipping from my wine glass, I couldn’t stop.I didn’t know when I drank it all at once. That was a bad idea, because the wine seemed to have an effect on my mood, which worsened immediately.Everyone chatted heartily, and the whole room shook with laughter, but I couldn’t laugh along.Gradually, my mind traveled to the events that occurred earlier t

    That Evening…Ethan took us to a five-star restaurant to celebrate.Alisha joined us, and also some of the nurses in the Cardiology Department. Although all the staff were invited, not all of them showed up, and most of the people present at the party were all the staff from the Neurology Department.“Don’t mind them, Dr. Olivia…” Alisha scoffed as she took her seat beside me. “They’re just ashamed to congratulate you after gossiping about you all day. Most of the ones that showed up are also shameless.”As Alisha whispered to me, my mind was on something else. The enormous round table was spread with various kinds of delicacies, and everyone occupied the chairs that surrounded it. The place was filled with a delightful aroma coming from the food, yet I had no appetite to eat anything.Despite not knowing the source of my gloom, I couldn’t help but feel a mixture of sadness and loneliness. “Olivia, what’s up? What’s bothering you?” Ethan leaned in and asked in a soft tone. He proba

    Dr. Davison announced, “Well, I don’t think I should tell you much about Dr. Olivia’s contribution to this hospital. She’s among the rare talents who have sacrificed so much for this hospital. Everyone knows that every surgery she has ever performed is always successful… and recently, she stepped in to save this hospital’s reputation by performing a very rare and complex surgery. Who else deserves to be the new Head of the Cardiology Department if not her?”When it got to my turn, the round of applause didn’t come on time. However, there were gasps everywhere, and the silent hall broke into whispers and murmurs. Even the staff sitting in the same row didn’t hesitate to express their confusion out loud. “No way! He’s not referring to the same Dr. Olivia, is he?”“She’s the only Dr. Olivia in the Cardiology Department. Who else would he be referring to?”“But she’s the same Dr. Olivia who offended Theo Wellington, right?”“Did Dr. Davison mix up words and promote her instead of firing

    For one thing, ever since I started working in this hospital, I’d never witnessed Theo appear in any meeting before. I brazen up and we found some seats in the front row.Everyone inside the hall was confused about the sudden meeting, and the whole place was filled with whispers of the hospital staff. “Attention, Everyone!” Dr. Davison took the mic and spoke into it. “Please settle down. We were all in the middle of work when this sudden meeting was decided. It will be brief and will only take five minutes, so we can all quickly return to our activities. This meeting should not be a hindrance to attending to any emergencies. Anyone who has a patient who’s in a critical condition is exempted.”Some of the nurses and doctors stood up and left after the clarification from Dr. Davison.Even though the meeting seemed to be very important, the patients’ lives were more valuable. It’s a good thing that he emphasized that importance. The hall was still filled to the brim, but the murmurs a
