“It has a computer, doesn’t it? And it’s where I get my work done. When I am not being bothered, that is.” She looked at him pointedly.

“Pretty sure this is the meeting room,” he said evenly.

“And I’m pretty sure you’re wrong.” She smiled at him sweetly and suddenly he was leaning in close again.

“You just admitted that you like me,“ he observed.

She rolled her eyes and looked away. She was painfully aware of his proximity. Her felt was close to ripping through her chest.

  • Paging Doctor Heartbreaker   Chapter 127 Epilogue

    Five years later:“Do you want some ice?”“No.”“I think you need some ice. Your forehead is all shiny.”“Goodness, Talia. Leave me alone.”“Don’t get cranky. I’m just trying to help…”“Brenden,” Irene whined. “Make her stop. For the love of God, make her stop.”“Talia,” Brenden berated in a warning tone, his voice coming from Irene’s right, and the two of them got into a hushed argument that ended with Talia huffing and giving them both the stink eye. Which was perfectly fine by Irene because at least Talia would no longer be talking.“I’m sure if Nina wanted her to have ice, they would bring her ice,” Irene’s mother said reasonably from across the room. She was sitting in a little chair, looking out of place in her khaki pants and t-shirt.“Sure, they would,” her dad agreed. He had been standing by the wall, too anxious to sit and checked his watch several times a minute. “Where is she, anyway?” His eyes scanned the room as if expecting Nina to spawn out of the shadows at any moment

  • Paging Doctor Heartbreaker   Chapter 126 I Love Him

    She felt bad but the thought of Brenden hanging out with Dr. Swift, laughing and unconsciously flirting made her feel worse.Irene was sitting behind a computer in the nurses station looking up labs. When Dr. Swift passed by and disappeared into the dictation room, Irene reacted without thinking, standing without hesitation and following her inside.Dr. Swift was just opening the chart she carried in and turned around at the sound of the door opening. When she saw it was Irene, she smiled tightly, then turned back around and began flipping through pages.“Irene,” she said cordially, resuming her work, and Irene stood there a moment while wondering what she was doing. What had she planned on saying because everything was suddenly blank.Irene cleared her throat. “Dr… Swift.” The use of her formal name hung in the air, highlighting the barrier between them.“Did you need something?” she asked without looking back.Irene looked at the sink, wondering if she could pretend that she was com

  • Paging Doctor Heartbreaker   Chapter 125 You Had A Choice

    The self-doubt rolled off him in waves, but he hid it carefully behind a look of annoyance and straight set shoulders. If she didn’t know him, she would think he was being his usual grumpy self.“Now get out of my room and quit snooping around my shit.” The bathroom door slammed behind him, effectively locking her out..Sine was officially fired. It was never announced and Haley wouldn’t speak of it, but Irene heard it through the grapevine and since she wasn’t working any of her shifts for over a week, Irene was sure it was true.Things didn’t feel different with her gone, with the news of the drug thief out. She thought she would feel vindicated knowing she was no longer to blame but instead she replayed every conversation with Sine through her head and tried to see the subtle signs she might have missed. Signs that the other was a drug addict.Brenden thought the signs were obvious, but Irene didn’t think he ever liked her to begin with. He might have a point, though, especially w

  • Paging Doctor Heartbreaker   Chapter 124 I Knew It!

    “What?” he said defensively. “You did get rid of a drug thief.”“Oh god, Irene,” Talia burst into the kitchen after them. “I can’t believe it was her. Did you know? I would have bet my kidneys that I was right about Dr. Swift.”“Calm down, Talia,” Irene shushed her, suddenly overwhelmed by the attention she was receiving over it. It had been a couple of hours, but that was plenty of time for Andy to make a public announcement to the entire hospital. “We don’t know why she took them.”“Calm down? I cried for you. I grieved, Irene. I don’t know what I would have done if that had happened to me. Actually, you know what? I would have punched her in the face the moment I find out. Rationality be damned.”Talia was too excited, and there was no reasoning with her. Irene took her cup from Andy and gulped half the drink in the kitchen, nearly choking because it was strong. Then, she headed back to the living room to find Brenden and Dr. Stone in a deep discussion about a patient they had both

  • Paging Doctor Heartbreaker   Chapter 123 All He’s Good For

    “You were right.”Irene threw down her bag, purse, and jacket before emptying her pockets. Brenden was still in his scrubs, having gotten off shortly before her, and looked at her in confusion.“I was right about what?”“It was Sine. Sine took the drugs.” She yanked her stethoscope from around her neck and slung it into her bag. She popped down on the couch beside Brenden. Her pride was taking a hit, but she sucked it up. This was how Brenden would have felt if she had been right.But she wasn’t right. Not even close.Had she accused Dr. Swift simply because she was jealous? It seemed absurd at that moment.To Brenden’s credit, he didn’t say ‘I told you so’ or make her feel worse. Instead, surprise lit up his face, his excitement impossible to mask. “Are you serious? What happened?” he asked. “Did she admit to taking them?”“I went through her phone,” she said unapologetically, ignoring the way Brenden’s eyebrows arched in a silent question. “She sent texts to her boyfriend talking ab

  • Paging Doctor Heartbreaker   Chapter 122 You Stole The Pills?

    When she flipped it over, she glanced at the screen. In the dim glow, the message caught her eye.[Hello? Are you there? If they don’t suspect you, then why would you say anything? Don’t be stupid.]Irene read it once, twice, and her pulse rate automatically quickened as her thoughts raced into overdrive. Did this have anything to do with the drugs? Did Sine take them? Or maybe she was being paranoid and jumping to conclusions. It wouldn’t be the first time.She stared at the phone in her hand, then looked at the break room door. Then the phone again.‘Fuck it.’Her resolve crumbled.She clicked on the message, opening up the entire conversation. The screen glowed invitingly bright, the words appearing in an instant at the touch of her finger. She read them backwards, starting with the most recent texts, working her way up.The texts answered all her questions, laying Talia’s earlier claims to rest. Texts that made her heart thunder against her chest with such force that she was sure
