(Fabian's POV)

“Please, my dear, forgive me. I was wrong…” Mrs. Barrington continued as she tried to hold her hand again.

I already suspected the apology had been forced on her by her son. But she was doing too much.

Aliana was clearly uncomfortable with Mrs. Barrington touching her.

I sighed, walked over, and gently took Aliana’s hand.

She flinched, startled by the sudden touch, but relaxed when she saw it was me.

“That’s enough,” I said to Mrs. Barrington, my voice calm but tight.

She let ou

  • Doctor, Please Be My Wife Again   Chapter 152: Know Your Boundaries

    (Fabian's POV)Andrea had always called him selfish.I never really paid much attention to it, and honestly, I never liked hearing him speak about Dad that way.But after everything Dad had done to Aliana, and the way he kept putting his reputation above everything else, I couldn't really blame Andrea anymore.“Leave, Dad,” I said softly. “It's already late, and I want to rest.”His eyes widened. “So now you're kicking me out of your house?” he asked, his voice tight with disbelief.I let out a quiet sigh. I was too exhausted to keep arguing.Without saying anything else, I turned toward the stairs.“Goodnight, Dad,” I muttered and started walking upstairs.Dad stared at my back for a moment, his eyes were red with either anger or disappointment.Then, without saying another word, he turned and walked out of the house.The moment the door closed behind him, I let out a deep breath and leaned against the wall.To the media, my father was a principled and respectable man who never remar

  • Doctor, Please Be My Wife Again   Chapter 151: Someone Was Listening

    (Fabian's POV)“Who's there?” Dad shouted again, his voice even sharper.Just then, someone stepped out from the corner. My eyes widened in surprise when I saw who it was.Vivian?So it was Vivian who had been standing there? Had she been listening to our conversation all this time?Why would she do that?Her head was lowered, and her hands trembled slightly as she struggled to steady the tray she was carrying, with glasses of fresh juice on it.“I... I'm sorry. I wasn't careful enough, and the second glass slipped and broke,” she said softly, her voice shaking as she walked over and placed the tray on the table.I furrowed my brows. I had actually asked her to get me something to drink since there wasn't any housekeeper nearby at the time. But I hadn't expected her to come back so quickly. “Who are you?” my dad asked sharply.He had never met her before, and he clearly knew she wasn't one of the house staff.“I...” Vivian stammered, glancing briefly at me for help.“She's my friend,

  • Doctor, Please Be My Wife Again   Chapter 150: Family Comes First

    (Fabian's POV)My father stood before me, his eyes red with anger, one hand gripping his walking stick tightly.He wasn't that old, but he had developed a knee problem at a relatively young age.The look on his face made it clear that he was furious.He hadn't been happy with me since the day of the emergency council meeting. Since the day I exposed Steve and had him arrested for trying to harm Aliana.He had asked to see me several times, but I never went. And now, he had come to my house himself.“You should have at least told me you were coming,” I said, my expression just as tense.I wasn't exactly pleased that he had shown up without warning, especially when I already knew why he was here.“And why must I inform you before coming? Who said you could make those rules?” he snapped.I frowned. Was he being serious? So now I had no right to privacy? He was acting as though my house was still his to walk into whenever he pleased.I clenched my fists tightly, forcing myself to stay cal

  • Doctor, Please Be My Wife Again   Chapter 149: A Crisis at Headquarters

    (Aliana's POV)I sat back down, my chest tight with worry as I watched Delvin step out of the dining room to answer his call.He had said everything was fine, but the look on his face told a different story.He looked genuinely worried. Even the way Christine had hurried off to answer Grandpa Barrington's call felt strange.During the time I was married to Delvin, I learned that Grandpa Barrington rarely called.And when he did, it was usually because something was wrong with the company.“Is there something wrong with the company?” I whispered to myself over and over again.I clasped my hands together as I waited for them to return, hoping everything was truly okay.“These are the gifts Madam prepared...” the housekeeper said, pulling me out of my thoughts.I had completely forgotten she was still standing there with the gifts Christine had prepared.But honestly, who was thinking about gifts right now?“I...” I started to say.But the words died in my throat the moment I saw Delvin

  • Doctor, Please Be My Wife Again   Chapter 148: A Mother's Gratitude

    (Delvin's POV)“You... you're lying,” Mum stammered, clearly still in denial.I sighed as I held her steady. How could I lie about something like this? She knew how much that incident meant to me. I would never joke about it.“I'm not, Mum. Aliana is really the one who saved me,” I said quietly.Mum gasped and placed a hand over her chest as if the truth had nearly given her a heart attack.She didn't say anything right away. Instead, she turned and stared at Aliana for a long moment.And during that moment, her gaze softened slightly. It wasn't the same look she used to give Aliana before. There was no hatred in it. No resentment... just shock.“You're saying she has saved your life twice now?” Mum asked quietly, still looking at her.“She’s my little doctor,” I replied.I remembered saying those exact words to her years ago. And according to Aliana, those words had inspired her to become a doctor.“Come on,” I said to Mum, gesturing toward the dining table.Mum hesitated for a mome

  • Doctor, Please Be My Wife Again   Chapter 147: The Woman I Love

    (Delvin's POV)“What are you doing here, Mum?” I asked, narrowing my eyes in surprise.I hadn't expected to see her here. When did she return to town?She hadn't mentioned anything about coming back when we spoke that morning.“Shouldn't that question be for her?” my mother asked, throwing a sharp glare at Aliana. “What is she doing here, Delvin?”Aliana swallowed uncomfortably.I knew how uncomfortable my mother's presence must have made her feel. But she didn't have to endure that anymore.This was her home too. I had bought this place with her in mind. She had every right to decide who would stay here and who wouldn't.I tightened my grip on her hand, silently reassuring her that I was here.And that I would protect her from anything. Even from my own mother.“She's free to come here anytime she wants,” I said coldly.My mother's lips parted in disbelief. She stared at me, then at Aliana, and finally at our clasped hands.Her lips pressed into a thin line. It was obvious she hated
