Kendall

I had missed Isaac more than I wanted to admit, and kissing him brought all those feelings back at once.

Then I remembered where I was and pulled away.

"Stop," I said, taking a step back and trying to steady my breathing. "We cannot keep doing this, Isaac. I shouldn't have kissed you, and you shouldn't have come here to ask me questions you already know I don't want to answer. Raymond has done nothing to deserve having me standing out here kissing another

  • Rejected By My Husband, Desired By My Doctor    Two Different Crimes

    DorisEvelyn's name made the gaps harder to dismiss. Her medical history had been discussed during the legal disputes surrounding her marriage, and some of the documents were included in the financial records connected to the old Parker-Marcello agreement.The clinic letters referred to procedures and follow-up appointments, but the costs recorded in the financial paperwork did not always match the number of procedures described.There were also references to a delayed test and a changed recommendation. I could not see who had authorized the change, and I did not know whether the difference in the costs came from a billing arrangement, an incomplete record, or something less ordinary.I opened another folder and found the court documents concerning Evelyn's six-month service obligation. They listed medical costs as part of the wider financial dispute, though they were not intended to provide a complete account of her treatment.I had no reason to assume the figures should match every

  • Rejected By My Husband, Desired By My Doctor    The Ring

    EvelynKendall came over while Damien was at the hospital, still overly excited about the previous evening. I had been sitting in the living room with my sketchbook open, trying to work out how I wanted to approach a new painting, but I closed it when she sat at the kitchen table and held out her hand to inspect my ring. She admired the design, turned my fingers slightly to catch the light, and then looked up at me with a serious expression. She couldn’t get enough of the ring. "It's a beautiful ring, Evie, and I was genuinely happy when Damien proposed. I wanted you to have a good evening, and I loved seeing you smile when he put it on your finger. But now that we've had a night to think about it, I need to ask you something, and I need you to answer honestly. Are you happy with Damien, or did you say yes because you're tired of everything you've been through?" Of course, Kendall… I didn’t need to say it but she had definit

  • Rejected By My Husband, Desired By My Doctor    What Doesn't Add Up

    DorisWith the company out of my grasp, my newest obsession had been getting Adrian out of prison. Yes, he had been such an asshole in throwing me out in front of that godforsaken Evelyn… But I still loved Adrian. I couldn’t be sure he had not killed Paul, but I knew Adrian well enough to know that irrespective of how bad he was, he was never a murderer. Someone else had killed Paul... And if Adrian was going to be free, someone had to take the fall for it. I had spent three evenings looking through the documents I collected after losing my position at the Parker company, and by Wednesday morning, I was beginning to understand why I had not been able to put the matter aside. The public judgment that had cleared Damien Cross was on my laptop, with the older reports from his arrest arranged beside it. I had printed the relevant pages and marked the dates in red ink. I was not a doctor or a lawyer, but I had spent yea

"Stop," I said, taking a step back and trying to steady my breathing. "We cannot keep doing this, Isaac. I shouldn't have kissed you, and you shouldn't have come here to ask me questions you already know I don't want to answer. Raymond has done nothing to deserve having me standing out here kissing another man. I have to stop this before I hurt someone who trusts me." Isaac looked at me, his jaw tightening. "You kissed me, Kendall. I didn't grab you or ask you to do anything you didn't want to do. You came over to me, you put your hand on me, and you kissed me. Kendall, you have to trust your feelings and follow your heart." "You know nothing about my feelings, Isaac" I replied, rubbing my hands together as I searched for the right words. "I'm angry with myself for allowing it

  • Rejected By My Husband, Desired By My Doctor    What Happens Between Us

    KendallI was genuinely happy for Evelyn. Watching Damien put that ring on her finger had made me smile, and seeing her laugh with us outside the restaurant had been a relief after everything she had endured. She deserved some happiness after the months of confusion and pain surrounding her marriage, and I wanted to believe that Damien would give her a life she could enjoy. Raymond had been standing beside me through the surprise, teasing me about how excited I had become. I needed to step out a little, have a moment for everything to sit with me. "I need to get some air and answer a message from work," I told Evelyn, reaching for my bag. "I'll be back in a few minutes. Don’t forget… I’m not done taking photos of that ring!" Evelyn laughed and held up her hand for me to admire it again. "Go and answer your message, Kendall." I left them at the entrance and stepped onto the pavement, pulling my phone from my bag. The street was quieter

  • Rejected By My Husband, Desired By My Doctor    Say Yes

    EvelynOn one of such Friday afternoons, I had the most unexpected visitor… at least, since I told him I didn’t want him showing up in my life every now and then. It was Theo. Damien was out, attending to matters connected with the hospital, and I was in the living room when I recognized the car through the window. I considered pretending I was not home, but that would only postpone a conversation I knew he had come to have. I opened the door and found him standing on the step with his hands tucked into his coat pockets. He greeted me politely and waited until I invited him inside. "I won't take much of your time, Evelyn," he said after we sat down. “What do you want, Theo?” “I believe you’re aware that your father was one of the people that made a move against Adrian and Margaret… I mean, one of the people considering they had amass just so many enemies.” The memory of Bruce being present in the court that very d
