Later the doctor came back with the test result.
"Mrs Miller you have no infection, you can go home now if you want," the attending physician smiled at Moriah.
"Thanks, Dr Singh," Moriah smiled brightly at the doctor.
Ethan wondered why he never saw her smile like that when they were in high school.
"Do you really smile like that?" Ethan couldn't stop himself from asking her when the doctor departed.
Moriah misunderstood his question as criticism, she answered him laced with hurt "What's wrong with my smile?"
"Nothing, don't be mad," he shook his head, "Let's go home."
Moriah pulled off the drip from

Substitute Groom: Married to an Enemy Chapter 30 - Who Is Hazel To Ethan?
Tears gathered in her eyes and she could not stop them streaming down. Ethan looked down at his wife when he felt hot liquid trickling on his bare chest. "Why are you crying?" He anxiously asked while he wiped her tears. "Did I hurt you?" He was a bit rough when he took her as he lost it. "No," all she managed to say as she sobbed. "Why are you crying then?" The sound of her soft sobbing was like a knife that cut through his heart. "Moriah, please tell me," pacifying her, he stroked her back. "Who — who is – is she to you?" She said in bouts of her sobs. "Who?" "Hazel," she whispered. A war waging inside her whether she should or not ask about his relationship with Hazel. But she refused this issue to remain there between them, a huge elephant in the room. Moriah heard Ethan sighed after a long silence. "Remember the time I left after our wedding?" he asked and Moriah nodded. "There was a huge problem in our company in Canada. I was supposed to fly to Canada the night we go

After a quite enjoyable meal at the restaurant, Moriah and Ethan retired to their bedroom. Moriah kept swatting Ethan's hand. "Keep your hands to yourself, Mr Miller!" "Mr Miller can't keep his hands off from Mrs Miller," Ethan teased her and turned her to face him. "Why are you still using Chen as your surname?" Ethan likes it when people call her Mrs Miller. "Mrs Miller suits you." His words brought a flurry of mixed emotion to Moriah. Confused and scared with her own emotion, Moriah whimpered. "You didn't like to be called Mrs Miller?" Her refusal to be called Mrs Miller unnerved him. "No," she hugged him and buried her face in his chest. "Why are you crying again?" Frustrated, he took a long breath and released it slowly. "Aren't you going to answer me, wife?" he asked again after a long silence. When she still wasn't answering after a long agonizing silence, Ethan realized that she was already asleep as she was breathing evenly. Ethan was bothered by Moriah's behavior. S

He was so absorbed in his conversation on the phone that he hadn't realized that Moriah was in the room. Moriah sat at the bedside and stared at her husband's broad shoulders. "Alright, my assistant will send you the documents today… sure…. I'm with my wife… she needed rest… you're right… yes… bye" Turning, Ethan smiled upon seeing his wife's eyes transfixed on him. "You're here," he sauntered towards his wife. Ethan's voice jolted her back from her trance. She looked around in a dazed panic, not certain whether her self - absorption had lasted seconds or minutes. "What?" She annoyingly asked when she saw him, teasingly smiled. "Thinking about me?" He brushed his knuckles on her blushing cheeks as he sat beside her. "Why would I think about you?" she muttered evasively, getting up from the bed. He jumped up too, and caught her wrist to halt her progress.Her heart picked up a tempo when he engulfed her with his strong arms. "What are you doing, Ethan?" He liked the way his nam

"Let's eat," Brandon said, sensing that Ethan would explode at any minute if the discussion about children continues."Anyway, Moriah, I heard that you are a surgeon and one of the youngest surgeons in the UK. How did that happen?" Brandon's admiration for Moriah was apparent."Ahmm… I – I had an academic acceleration." She stuttered, she didn't know how to respond to admiration without blushing or stuttering."How? I mean… how did you manage such an academic feat?" He was fascinated when he heard about her from Fiona."Er… Being an only child, my parents taught me Chinese characters and the English alphabet when I was one. At two I was able to read and write.""W

But deep within she's bitter and beaten.Shaun held her hand and said, "Moriah, give me a chance, divorce him now."A bitter smile touched her lips.
