Liam’s POVWas it just me or this professor was acting really nice to Annalise? I was outside waiting for Annalise who was given a new set of clothes to change into. The professor came asking if the new student was inside and I nodded, Annalise was a new student and maybe he was one of the professors Mr. Smith introduced Annalise to.I expected him to leave and just wait elsewhere to see Anna but he stood with me after exchanging pleasantries with me. Doesn’t he have a class to go to? Was he jobless? Or is there someone else in the restroom he was waiting for?Annalise came out a while later and I saw him walk up to her even before I did,“Hello, you must be Annalise?” he stretched his hand for a handshake and Annalise took it a bit confused as she looked from me back to the man in front of her.“Hi, I am. Good morning,” she let out a smile that I knew wasn’t as genuine as the one she usually gives to me.“I’m Professor Ken, I heard about what happened at the class and decided to com
Annalise’s POVGetting into the class, I met Professor Ken already teaching, and gave him a slight bow before heading to the empty seat, but before I could sit down, I heard Professor Ken ask,“I hope you were able to resolve whatever was so urgent with the guy outside. He looked really worried,” “Huh?” Was Liam that worried? But it wasn’t like something was going on in the hospital.“Yes, yes, we were able to resolve it, thank you,” I replied when I noticed the entire class was now staring at me since the Professor was doing the same.I sighed and began to play with the weave bracelet and then it hit me why Liam did what he did. Oh, he can't be serious?! Was he…? I brought out my phone and typed a long message to him and was going to click send when I paused and added,P.S. I love the bracelet. This is the second time Liam has given me such a nice gift, I wonder what to get for him. I'll ask Grandma what date was his birthday. Grandma? No, no, I'll just ask him. I can only imagin
Annalise's POV. "Annalise, can I speak to you for a minute?" Professor Ken asked as the class ended. I raised an eyebrow, wondering what he wanted to discuss."Um, alright sir." I nodded and stood up, as I moved out of the class, deep murmurs followed me out and I just sighed. The first day wasn't really good, not that I was expecting anything less especially when the woman who hates me so much in the world was in the same school.Professor Ken was standing outside the classroom, and I couldn't help but notice how good-looking and well-built he was. I hoped it was normal for students and professors to have discussions after classes; the last thing I needed was more gossip."Hello, Annalise," he greeted warmly. "It's really great to have a talent like you in our midst. I'm sorry about your bad experience earlier, but if you ever need anything or help with any problems, I'll always make myself available to assist you."I opened my mouth to respond but found myself momentarily speechles
Annalise's POV. A few minutes later, I was still in Liam's car trying to calm down. He had snatched the keys from me and forced me into the passenger seat when I had insisted on driving. "How's the killing mode?" he asked, a smirk playing on his lips. "Still high!" I replied, clenching my fists. The urge to punch something...preferably Benson...was overwhelming. How could he send me gifts after everything that had happened between us? "Oh God!" I cursed, blinking back hot tears.Liam reached over, trying to soothe me. "Calm down, I'll deal with him personally, I promise." I looked at him with a sad smile. He had been equally enraged when I told him about the gifts, but instead of acting on his anger, he was trying to pacify me. "Don't worry about it," he continued. "If Grandma Smith finds out, it would not be cool. I just wonder how he gets to know about my whereabouts. Is he spying on me or something?" I asked, grabbing a bottle of water to take a drink."Not really," Liam repli
Annalise POVI sat on the dining table, staring at my phone as it continued to ring, my eyes widened in shock. I had wished this never happened until Father got back and it happened on the first day!“What's wrong, Anna? Why aren't you picking up the call?” Grandma J asked and I bit my lower lip before slowly picking up the phone and answering the call, “Hello, Am I speaking with Doc Annalise?” I'm not a doctor yet! I had just got admitted into the school and it was my first day today. Father had made sure to save all their contacts on my phone and mine on the hospital phones as well in case there was an emergency. “Huh, yeah…” “There is an emergency, ma'am. Your father asked me to call you and you'll handle it” My jaws clenched as I swore a million times for Mr. George in my head. “I'll be right there!” I replied before getting up from my seat. “Duty calls?” Grandma asked and I nodded. I didn't even get to savor my meals before they called. I was still hungry but whatever emer
Annalise's POVWhile I was giving them instructions on what to do, I was preparing the potion for the bullet wound, it has to stop the bleeding from pumping out so fast they could have time to stitch the wound and cover it up. They stood still waiting for me to give another instruction, and as much as I wanted to give the instructions, my hands were cold as I didn't know if this potion was the right one and if it would work for the purpose it was created. If this doesn't work, there isn't enough time to create the right one. There's no time to right a wrong, it will be the end. I don't know what I would do if my first surgery ended just like that. Just then, Liam's face flashed through my mind. How I had done nonsense and poured whatever my hand touched to make medicine for him the first time I had seen him. Funny enough, I had made them to reduce his fever, but it had done more than its purpose. I heard in my head, ‘It's not the medicine or the antidote, it's who made it, who is
Liam's POV“Liam, your phone” Mother called me and I walked over to where she was and took the phone from her to answer the call. When I saw who was calling, I was shocked. I didn't know why Grandma J would call all of a sudden so I picked up hoping nothing was wrong with Anna.“Grandma?”“My grandson, how are you doing?” she asked and I almost sighed in relief, happy that her voice wasn't one of panic or tension. “I’m okay, Grandma, how are you? Is everything fine?” “Of course, of course,” she answered but I could hear underneath her voice that there was more she wanted to spill out, before I could ask, she began, “Do you know that Annalise is in the emergency room as we speak?”My heart skipped, my blood ran cold and my eyes widened as I asked for clarity,“I… I don't understand…. Anna is in the hospital?” As the question came out of my mouth I was in search of my car keys. My hand reached for the shirt I had just taken off a few minutes ago.“Oh, don't be scared, my boy. She wen
Annalise's POV"Annalise!" I heard my name from the living room and rushed there. It was my mother-in-law calling. With her were three visitors. I never knew she was expecting visitors."Ma," I answered the minute I got there but a dirty slap landed on my cheeks causing my face to turn from one side to the other. I couldn't hear a thing because my ears kept ringing, and my hands covered my cheek as I stared at the woman before me. "Didn't you hear me call for you ever since? Do I have to scream and lose my voice before you come running down?" She raised her hand again and I staggered back, not wanting to be slapped again."Get the hell out of my face and get my guests some wine and cookies" I didn't bother to argue and turned on my heels as tears rolled down my eyes. Before I knew it, I felt a strong pull by my hair causing me to follow the hand that pulled it, "Argghhh…!" I whined in pain, "Mother, please stop!" *SLAP”"Who's your mother?" She asked with anger in her eyes as sh
