Toward evening. Dane's room, with its window.

Evelyn came in and sat by the window. Dane was asleep. She took the material she'd received at the interview from her bag and read. The case discussion she'd missed was already over. Questions and answers followed the name of the person who'd led it.

As she tried to read another line, her vision blurred. Evelyn lowered the paper to her lap and wiped her eyes with the back of her hand. Her name came from th

  • The Mafia Boss’s Captive Doctor   Chapter 65. Our House Is on Fire

    There were many blanks in Professor Hale's answers. Copying down only the dates he was certain of, Evelyn stopped her pen. When she wrote the questions she needed to ask again, they took up more lines than the answers. After adding a question mark to the last one, she couldn't send them for a long time.There was still no answer about the cause of her mother's death. The pathology records were undergoing further checks, and what could be determined might depend on the condition of the old materials. Thinking of her mother still unsettled her.Evelyn closed the documents and folded the laundry.She could have used a hotel's laundry service, but she had washed a few light garments herself. While her hands were moving, she didn't have to read the same sentence again. Each time she straightened a damp sleeve and hung it up, she felt she was putting a little more of the day in order.One button on Dane's

  • The Mafia Boss’s Captive Doctor   Chapter 64. Support Put on Hold

    Richard looked at Evelyn for a moment.“Ms. Morgan also viewed the early research positively. Research has both achievements and limitations.”“Up to what point are you referring to?”Evelyn waited for his answer. If she spoke quickly to press him, she felt she might miss the part she wanted to hear.Richard said he couldn't recall every detail of old meetings here.“Please also examine the objections she raised afterward. They concern the classification of adverse reactions and the need to continue follow-up care.”In the audience, the sponsor's representative turned a page. What Evelyn had sent in advance was part of the meeting materials with other people's names concealed, and questions about record preservation. There were no images of someone's death or photographs of their body.Adrian took the microphone.“Tak

  • The Mafia Boss’s Captive Doctor   Chapter 63. Did My Mother Know Too?

    After they sat down, a former colleague approached. He greeted her after so long and cautiously asked how she was doing. Evelyn started to say she was well, then said she wasn't sure yet.Her colleague looked uncomfortable.“I heard your case was settled.”“The disciplinary action was withdrawn. What comes after that is still ahead.”“That's a relief.”With nothing more to say, he touched his water glass. Evelyn knew her inability to give him a bright smile right away was making him uncomfortable. Still, she didn't hurry to tell him everything was fine.After the colleague left, Dane asked in a low voice,“Was he there then too?”“We worked together. I'll find out what he did first. Don't make him an enemy before that.”Before Dane could look as though he intended to make an enemy of everyone she

  • The Mafia Boss’s Captive Doctor   Chapter 62. This Time, She Didn't Pull Her Hand Away

    He pushed the invitation to the hotel event to one side of the dining table. There was still work to do today. But now there was also room for the two of them to sit and share the bread.Evelyn broke off a piece first and brought it to his mouth. As Dane took it, his lips briefly brushed her fingertips.She didn't hurry to draw her hand away.Dane looked at the crumbs left on her fingertips and smiled. When Evelyn tried to pull her hand back to wipe them off, he held it a little longer. Only then did the place his lips had touched grow warm.“Even eating bread takes this long with you.”As she spoke, Dane pushed the remaining piece toward the middle of the plate.“Something else is more urgent.”Unable to answer, Evelyn drank some water. Her gaze kept finding his face, closer than the invitation on the table.***

    He caught Evelyn's wrist with his left hand.“All done?”“Yes.”“Then come here.”Evelyn washed her hands and returned to sit on his uninjured side. Dane put an arm around her. She leaned against him, then shifted. Their knees touched. Feeling his warmth this close, she felt as though her mind, lost among papers all day, was returning to her body.“I don't want to talk about my mother today.”Evelyn said. Dane looked at the bedroom door she had closed. Inside were materials she still hadn't sorted.“Then what should we talk about?”“Let me see a face that isn't telling someone off.”She pressed a finger above Dane's eyebrow. When he tilted his face and kissed her fingertip, her hand dropped at once.“Not that face.”“If you don't like it, come closer and l

  • The Mafia Boss’s Captive Doctor   Chapter 60. The Woman Whose Coffee Was Confiscated

    That evening, Olivia put her in touch with someone who could examine the materials.The first researcher she contacted asked for the full original text and an account of how the materials had been obtained. A few sentences weren't enough to judge the entire study, they said. Listening, Evelyn grew impatient. Some parts were clearly wrong, and she wanted to demand why they were delaying a conclusion.After the call ended, she confessed those feelings to Olivia.“I know. I know we need to look at more.”“That's what you say when you receive a patient's records too.”“It's harder when it's my own life.”“That's why you shouldn't be the only one judging it.”Olivia said it was time for her rounds and she had to hang up. Even as Evelyn thanked her, she wanted to keep her a little longer. Before her friend could apologize first, she told her to
