Scarlett's POV

Aiden was already at the window the moment he heard that cab. He was downstairs and outside before Nicholas had even fully gotten out the cab and hugged him the moment he saw his. His face buried in Nicholas's coat for a few seconds while Nicholas's hand settled on the back of his head.

Valeria came down and walked straight into the second hug without making him ask and Nicholas said something low against her head that made her mouth twitch.

  • Surgeon's Revenge: From Ex Wife To Country's Best Doctor    Chapter 113: What He Brought Back

    Scarlett's POV Aiden was already at the window the moment he heard that cab. He was downstairs and outside before Nicholas had even fully gotten out the cab and hugged him the moment he saw his. His face buried in Nicholas's coat for a few seconds while Nicholas's hand settled on the back of his head. Valeria came down and walked straight into the second hug without making him ask and Nicholas said something low against her head that made her mouth twitch. I stayed on the top step and watched them. The afternoon light caught the side of Nicholas’s face. He looked tired from the flight, but the tiredness seemed to go away for a moment once both kids were under his arms, and I felt myself smiling before I could stop it. Spence was quiet behind me in the door. Nicholas looked up and met my eyes over the kids’ heads. "Hey,' he said carefully. "Hey," I repeated. "How was the flight?" "It was long but worth it,". He ruffled Aiden’s hair and adjusted the strap of the small bag on his

  • Surgeon's Revenge: From Ex Wife To Country's Best Doctor    Chapter 112: The First Name

    Scarlett's POV I woke up to the smell of coffee and the low scrape of a spatula against a pan. I went downstairs into the kitchen and Aiden was already at the table in yesterday’s socks, and was already talking about when Nicholas would be coming. “He’s landing this afternoon," He looked at Valeria. "That means he’ll be here before dinner, right? Or maybe right after. I can't wait to show him the echo video as soon as he walls in." "He's going to be tired," Valeria said without looking up from her textbook. "I'm pretty sure he would not want to watch medical videos the second he lands." “He said he’d watch every second.” Aiden pointed his fork at her. “He promised.” "That was when he was in Germany," Valeria's voice was flat. "Not when he was on flight and probably very tired." I ignored them, my eyes moved to stove and Spencer was by the stove, his back to us, pouring , pouring batter onto the hot pan in neat circles, then when they were ready he just flipped the one that wa

  • Surgeon's Revenge: From Ex Wife To Country's Best Doctor    Chapter 111: The Ride Back Home

    Scarlett's POV The air outside the federal building felt colder than it should have been at this hour.Spencer's hand stayed at my bank until we reached the car and he unlocked the car, waited until I was in the passenger seat, then closed the door before going to the driver's seat and starting the engine.My head wouldn’t shut up. Three years later someone invested in Harris. The foundation had closed the same year my car went into the river, then three years after that someone had paid for a surgeon good enough to rebuild a ruined right hand. Why keep him functional?Why wait for years to leave the hand destroyed, and then decide he was still worth the cost of putting it back together?Spencer glanced over once, then again. He didn’t ask if I was okay. He just reached over and turned the heat up a notch even though the car wasn’t cold.“Sage texted Aiden's awake,” he said. “ She he got up and then just... stayed up. He’s on the couch with a blanket watching something.”I stared at

  • Surgeon's Revenge: From Ex Wife To Country's Best Doctor    Chapter 110: It All Leads Back Again

    Scarlett's POV The time we walked into the federal building, it was about ten minutes after nine.The lobby lights felt too bright after the dark ride in the car. Ashfield was already waiting near the security desk, her arms crossed, phone in one hand."Come with me," She said the moment she saw us I followed behind her, and Spencer stayed a step behind me, we got into the elevator which led to the long hallway that smelled like the industrial cleaner and old papers. Ashfield pushed open a door marked with a number instead of a name and we stepped into lab with lights over our heads, a long metal table, stacks of printed files, one laptop open to imaging software and two tablets already unlocked and waiting. An analyst sat at the far end with a dark sweater on and Ashfield nodded at him like they already had the conversation."Alex has the records pulled," she said. "It's incomplete but it's enough."I sat on the cold chair and Spencer was standing behind me, close enough that I cou

  • Surgeon's Revenge: From Ex Wife To Country's Best Doctor    Chapter 109: A Normal Night

    Spencer's POV We got home a little after seven. Aiden went straight for the couch the moment he got in, and tipped his head against the cushion and his mouth went slack.Valeria looked at him for a second, then walked to the hallway closet without a word and brought out a soft blanket he liked and spread it over Aiden. She tucked the corner under his arm the way Scarlett always did , thtn she picked up her sketchbook and went to bed without being asked.Scarlett stood in the kitchen doorway watching them. The tight line that had been sitting between her eyebrows most of the day smoothed out. "What?" I asked."Nothing." She shook her head slightly. "She's just ten years old and she already knows how to take care of everyone.""She had a good teacher," I said.Scarlett looked at me and gave a small smile.I set the keys down and watched her eyes moved once toward the front windows, then the side ones that faced the garden. Even when the house was this quiet she still checked. I looked

  • Surgeon's Revenge: From Ex Wife To Country's Best Doctor    Chapter 108: Borrowed Days

    Spencer's POV "Where are we going?" Aiden asked, leaning forward between the front seats. “You'll know when we get there,” I said. “Eventually.”Valeria didn’t look up from her sketchbook. “If it’s another hospital cafeteria sandwich I’m walking home.”“It’s not,” I said. “We’re going to the park.”Aiden sat back hard. “Can we get ice cream first or is that against the rules now?”Scarlett’s mouth moved like she almost smiled. “I think ice cream first is allowed.”The park road opened up after the last stretch of traffic. I found a spot near the path that ran along the water. The second the engine cut, Aiden was out of the car and stretching like he’d been locked in a box for a week. Valeria climbed out slower, sketchbook still under one arm, and squinted at the ice cream cart under the tree.“If they only have the fake strawberry again I’m going to be annoyed.” Valeria said.Aiden was already in line. “You always get strawberry and you always complain.”“Because it doesn't taste li
