Surgeon's Revenge: From Ex Wife To Country's Best Doctor Chapter 115: Digging Deeper
Nicholas's POV "I should go," I pushed the chair back. "I need sleep before I say something useless.""Okay," Scarlett nodded. "You should say goodbye to the kids first."The kids were already in the living room when I came in. Valeria had her pencils and a scarp of paper."Am done with the laundry," Aiden said when he saw us. "Dad can we watch the echo video now?""Sorry Aiden, I have to go." I said. "I'm pretty tired from the flight. "If I stay I'll start talking nonsense.""But you just got here," Aiden blinked repeatedly."I know," I said softly. "I promise I'll come back tomorrow and we'll watch the echo video."Aiden’s mouth pulled down. "You swear?""I swear," I said. "I’ll text when I’m on the way.""You shouldn't forget," Valeria looked up from the pencil. "He’ll wait by the window again.""I won’t forget." I ruffled Aiden’s hair and squeezed Valeria’s shoulder. "I'll walk you to the door," Scarlett said.We stepped out onto the landing and the evening air hit cooler than b
Surgeon's Revenge: From Ex Wife To Country's Best Doctor Chapter 114: Clean On Paper
Scarlett's POV I picked up my phone and called Ashfield on the secure line. She answered on the first ring."You should open the files now," She said.I reached for the tablet on the side table, unlocked it and pulled up the new folder. . Nicholas moved from the chair to the dining table, while Spencer came out of the kitchen and stood on the other side, arms folded, watching the screen over my shoulder as the documents loaded."His name is Daniel Jackson," Ashfield’s voice stayed flat. "He has no formal complaints or loud associations. On paper he looks clean."I scrolled through the first PDF file which was incorporate fillings and signature pages. There were the same neat, slightly cramped handwriting over and over again. Nicholas leaned in until his shoulder almost touched mine and he stared at one of the signature pages for a few seconds, then sat back hard in the chair."I know that name," he said quietly."From where?" Spencer asked."From board meetings," Nicholas rubbed his
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
