(Delvin's POV)

My entire body froze the moment our eyes met. My heart pounded heavily in my chest. How… how was she here?

For a moment, I thought I was hallucinating her again. Maybe the anesthesia had affected my mind. But it hadn’t... and I wasn’t imagining her either.

This time, it was real. That was Aliana.

“Aliana…”

Her name slipped from my lips, soft and careful, as if I was afraid that if I said it too loudly, she would disappear.

Her steps faltered for a brief moment, and her eyes held

    (Delvin's POV)I sighed and rubbed my forehead. Why now? Why did she have to walk in at this moment, right in the middle of my conversation with Aliana?She had even seen Aliana sitting on my lap. Not that the situation was awkward, or that I cared about her seeing us like that. I just didn’t want her usual drama.Aliana’s expression didn’t change. She simply turned and started walking toward the door, completely ignoring Belicia."And where do you think you're going?" Belicia asked sharply, stepping in front of her and blocking her way."Belicia…" I called quietly, trying to stop whatever she was about to do.But she didn’t move out of the way. Not even an inch.I noticed Aliana’s lips twitch slightly, but she quickly pressed them together, holding herself back."Step aside," Aliana said. Her voice was calm, but the anger in it was clear."Not until you answer me," Belicia demanded, her tone challenging. "I want to know why you were sitting on his lap.""What are you doing, Belicia?"

    (Delvin's POV)"Do I need to remind you we’re divorced now, and what I do is none of your business?" she said flatly.I went quiet for a moment, staring at her in disbelief. Her words echoed in my head, shaking something deep inside me.Why? How could she say that to me? How could she talk about our divorce so casually? It was as if she was completely fine with how everything ended between us."You don’t get to tell me what to do, who to be with, or when to be with them!" she continued, her voice sharp."And if this is why you called me, then excuse me. I have better things to do," she said and turned to leave."It was him, right?" I whispered, the words slipping out before I could stop them.Aliana stopped in her tracks and turned back to me. Her brows furrowed in confusion as she tried to understand what I meant."The man you left me for… it was him, wasn’t it?" I continued, trying to stay calm even though my chest burned.She stared at me in disbelief. "You’ve completely lost your

  • Doctor, Please Be My Wife Again   Chapter 30: Who Is That Man

    (Delvin's POV)Aliana was standing there, but she wasn’t alone. She stood just inches away from a man.The man wore a sharp, well-tailored suit. His hair was neatly styled, and his shoes shone under the morning light. His overall appearance was polished and expensive, almost identical to my own style.He looked about my age too, and I couldn’t deny that he was strikingly handsome. That meant Aliana clearly had a type.The man held her hand gently, looking into her eyes. His gaze dropped slowly to her lips, as if he might kiss her at any moment. And Aliana just stood there, smiling warmly… almost shyly.To anyone else watching, they looked perfect together, like two people deeply in love. But to me, the sight burned like acid in my chest."Who is he?" I asked, trying to stay calm, but my voice still came out rough.The workers blinked at me, clearly surprised by the question. I had heard them call him Director Fabian, but I needed to be sure he was actually a director in this hospital.

    (Delvin's POV)"Congratulations, sir. You’re recovering very well. At this rate, you can now start using a wheelchair to move around," the nurse said with a warm smile as she brought the wheelchair forward.Aliana had mentioned this days ago, that if my recovery kept improving, I would be given a wheelchair. And now, here it was.My mum clapped her hands excitedly, and even Belicia looked genuinely happy about the news. To them, it was a step closer to me leaving this place.But to me, it meant something more. I looked past them toward the door, expecting someone... the same person I had been waiting to see every day."Doctor Hale is attending to another patient right now, but she will come as soon as she’s done," the nurse said, her voice uncertain and careful, as if she didn’t want to upset me.She knew exactly who I was waiting for, as my eyes kept drifting to the door."It’s okay," I said calmly, gently extending my hand for my medication.The nurse blinked in surprise and quickly

    (Aliana's POV)"Ahh…" my dad winced, shutting his eyes in pain. "Take it easy, Ali. It hurts."I shot him a glare sharp enough to cut glass. If he wasn’t my dad, I wouldn’t even bother treating his wound.Those men must have hit him hard. His lips were already swollen, and he should be grateful I was kind enough to treat it."You have a cut that needs to be cleaned. And it won’t clean itself," I said, unbothered, as I pressed the cotton swab against his lips a little harder.He winced again and pulled back."Bring it closer, Dad. I don’t have all day," I said flatly, holding up the swab.My dad sighed and reached for it. "Let me do it myself then…""Absolutely not. I’m the doctor here."If he knew he couldn’t stand the sting of antiseptic, why do something that would make others hit him?"I’m beginning to think you’re doing this on purpose," he said. "You’re pouring your anger into this and indirectly punishing me.""You’re just figuring that out?" I muttered, my tone flat as I dipped

    (Aliana's POV)"Two hundred thousand dollars," he finally said.My eyes widened. "What?""What? Too much for you?" he asked.I didn’t answer. I just stared at my dad, feeling even more disappointed. This was exactly why we went bankrupt years ago, why he could no longer afford my school fees, and why I was forced into that contract marriage in the first place. After seeing how I was treated in that marriage, he had felt guilty and promised me he wouldn’t gamble again. I had believed him... and even used my savings to set this shop up for him. How could he do this all over again?"Ugh! I really thought you had some money," the man groaned, turning to his men. "Take everything down..."“No… please! Don’t do this,” my dad begged, his voice trembling.I closed my eyes and pressed my lips together, trying to steady myself, but the tightness in my chest wouldn’t ease.“Wait,” I finally whispered.The men paused, turning their attention back to us. I took a deep breath and held out my card

My chest tightened as I slowly turned to face her.But she wasn’t alone. She had come with Belicia, and two other men in black suits, probably bo
