Chapter 508

Author: Foxy Whispers
It was the weekend. Peter and Fiona were off duty, leaving only Hugh on duty at the consultation room for the traditional medicine department.

Cassian had just entered the place when he saw a woman in her 50s pleading with Hugh.

"Doctor, please… I really need you to check on me."

"I told you! If you want to see a doctor, you need to register first. You haven't even done that yet, so how am I supposed to do a consultation with you? Hugh snapped.

He held his phone in both hands, so engrossed in his game that he didn't even bother to look at the woman.

"But doctor, I don't know how to register using my phone. I—"

"Are you serious? What a bother you are. Why are you asking to see a doctor when you don't even know how to get yourself registered at the hospital?" Hugh retorted, his attitude terrible.

By now, Cassian's face had turned stormy.

"I live in the countryside, doctor. It took me three hours just to get here. It's hard for me to make this trip. Please let me have a consultati

    Some people said the most agonizing thing in the world was waiting. Cassian hadn't believed it before, but he did now.Vera was showering in the bathroom, while Cassian waited anxiously in the living room as time quietly slipped by.But even after 15 minutes had passed, Vera still hadn't come out.Cassian was starting to get restless, as if he was anxiously waiting to use the bathroom, but it was occupied.It felt like pure torture.Soon, 20 minutes had passed, and he still hadn't heard anything coming from Vera's bedroom. He was tempted to use the All-Seeing Eye to see what she was doing inside there.Did it take that long to shower?Just then, the bedroom door opened.Vera poked her head out and said, "Turn off the lights, Cassian.""What for?" he asked in confusion."Just do as I say, and hurry up!" Vera urged impatiently.He figured she was feeling embarrassed about standing before him in her birthday suit. After all, most women wanted the lights off during their first t

    "It's too hot," Vera said before undoing a button on her top, revealing her fair skin.Cassian's heart started pounding wildly."Do you feel hot?" Vera asked Cassian as she undid a second button.Even more of her skin was now on display.Cassian hurriedly shifted his gaze, not daring to look any longer. He could feel the blood rushing in his veins. At the same time, he suddenly realized that this situation felt oddly familiar.The last time he drank with Vera at her place, she'd also started undoing her buttons.Why was she repeating it now? What was she trying to do?Cassian glanced over just in time to see Vera putting her hands on the next button. Without blinking, he stared right at her hands. The moment she undid another button, he would be blessed with a view of her snowy mounds.But she stopped there.Her hands were gripping the button, but she just didn't seem to be undoing it.Cassian felt restless, as if ants were crawling over his skin. It was quite uncomfortable—a

    The sultry, suggestive look in Vera's eyes set Cassian's imagination running again. Was something seriously going to happen between them tonight?The two of them ate, drank, and chatted the night away.Cassian noticed that every time Vera drank, she downed her glass in one go. He couldn't help asking, "Are you in a bad mood, Vera?""Nope," Vera replied flatly."You're lying," Cassian said. "Your eyes are telling me you've got something going on.""Don't worry for nothing, little boy," Vera said as she tapped him on the head.Cassian froze for a moment. Vera would've never done that to him in the past.Meanwhile, Vera proceeded to talk about work."Cassian, the traditional medicine department hasn't shown enough improvement yet. You need to find a way to raise the department's performance."If the department stays the same once the new hospital president arrives, I'm afraid he'll have some complaints about it."Arthur, the president of Rivershire Hospital, had gone into semi-r

    Like a dutiful wife, Vera proceeded to bring out about six dishes in total from the kitchen, including fruits and dessert. The table was covered in food."Why did you order so much, Vera? The two of us can't possibly finish all that," Cassian commented."It doesn't matter if we can't finish it, as long as we enjoy the food." Vera took two bottles of tequila from the liquor cabinet.Cassian jumped in alarm. "We're drinking tequila?""Scared?" Vera stared at him."I love tequila, but it's pretty strong. I'm worried you'll get drunk," Cassian said.Vera shot him a sidelong glance. "Don't you men like it when women get drunk? What was that saying, again? Men can shoot their shot once a woman has taken enough shots?"Huh?Was she thinking about getting drunk so I could shoot my shot with her?While Cassian's thoughts ran wild, Vera flashed a smile at him and said, "Since you like tequila, I'll leave these two bottles to you. I'll have some red wine."What the heck?Cassian wanted

    A drink with Vera?Cassian was instantly reminded of what happened the last time Vera got drunk. He couldn't stop his mind from wandering…At his silence, Vera asked impatiently, "Did you hear me? Do you want to drink with me?""Sure, but you'll need to wait for a while," Cassian said. "I'm still at work.""You're at work? Aren't you off today?" Vera asked puzzledly."Something came up with Hugh, so I'm filling in for him."Cassian didn't inform Vera of the situation with Hugh. It was an internal matter, and he didn't want to air the department's dirty laundry in public."Alright then. Call me when you're done.""By the way, Vera, which hospital room is my mom in?" Cassian asked."I did a full-body checkup for her and found nothing wrong, so I gave her a ride home already," Vera replied."Thanks, Vera.""You're welcome."Cassian remained on duty at the traditional medicine department until 7:00 pm before leaving. As soon as he stepped out of the hospital, Jasmine called."

    "Dr. York, if I could please explain—" Hugh stammered.Cassian threw Hugh's phone down onto the floor, cutting him off. Looking positively murderous, he snarled, "If you have no idea where you are right now, Hugh, I'll remind you. This is a hospital! This is where people come to get treated! The hospital didn't hire you to sit around playing games."Do you think that winning in your video game makes you some kind of god in real life, too? You imbecile!"Cassian had never been this furious before. If it were any other job, it wouldn't be quite so big a deal if the employee were playing video games while on the clock. But when it came to the medical profession, patients' lives were at stake. Hugh's indifferent attitude wasn't just as simple as work negligence. It was the kind of carelessness that could get someone killed sooner or later if no one put a stop to his behavior."Apart from the fact that you were playing video games while on the job, your attitude toward the patient was
