Chapter 91
“Haze?”
“Dr. Red!”
“What’s up?” I asked. Though I liked her from the start, I never gave her the chance to break the gap between a doctor and a nurse.
“Doc Red, guess what?” Her enthusiasm brought me a frown because I was never in the mood to indulge in a guessing game.
“I’m sorry, Haze, but can you just please state your purpose?”
She was silent for a moment, maybe surprised at my sarcastic tone.
“Ah, Doc Red, I’m here at the lobby of Palazzo Verde.”
I stared at the receiver, pulling my brows together. Did Sean send her over here?
“What are-” I started to question her unexpected appearance, but then I decided to meet her, “ah, Haze, just please wait for me there in the lobby.”
“Okay, doc.”
In less than five minutes, I already saw her waving her hand at me as soon as I stepped out of the el

“Wealth?” I asked her back, thinking I had not heard her correctly.Hazel furrowed her brows, giving me a look of disbelief.“Yes. Your inheritance.”“What are you talking about?” I stared at her, half-expecting that she had just misconstrued me for someone else.“The Grey Inheritance.”I scoffed and looked into her eyes. “Haze, remember, Grey is Sean’s family name, not mine.”“I know,” she replied as if what she was saying was just a simple matter. She took a sip of her coffee, wiped her mouth, and stood up.“Where are you going?” I got upset. Had she really no idea that I was already dying of suspense?“Go with me, Dr. Red,” she gestured with her hand, expecting that I could not refuse.I stood up like a puppet, picked up my bag, and followed her to the door.“I have booked a tour package for the two of us
Through Your Eyes Chapter 93
All the scenes of my life since I met Sean ran through my mind like a live panorama. I remembered how he stared at me in the emergency room, where I first met him. That I was also the time whenI felt attracted to another man. All my life had rotated around Eric, and his dominance in my life made me resigned to my belief that there would no longer be another man to take an interest inme. Or maybe because that’s how Eric led me to believe that I was already unworthy for anyone.Another meeting followed during the launching of Laminae, where I wondered why he didn’t bring a partner. And why he seemed to have eyes only for me. He danced with me that night and even brought me to his room. He comforted me when I saw how Eric flirted with other women, and he even offered his shoulder for me to cry on.All those series of events, where he always came in offering me those things I needed at the moment, rolled in. The house Philip offered the dayI s

“Bring me to the Grey’s residence,” I ordered, having forgotten in my anger that these people were not the offenders.Hazel and Philip looked at me; their questioning gaze wastelling me to reconsider. If it would be an invasion of private property, I had all the right than Sean, because the blood running in my veins comes from the real Greys.“I’m afraid Mr. Grey would not allow us,” Philip objected, but a single glare from me had him cringe to obedience.“Call him, and tell him I am coming home.”Philip threw a glance at Hazel, and the latter nodded, although her expression was registering her sense of anxiety.They went out ahead of me, and when I stepped out of the mausoleum, they were already inside the car. Philip came out right away to open the door for me, and it seemed his treatment had changedthe moment I had confirmed my background. Not that he disrespected me, but the way he loo

I turned away from Sean before he could start making up lies to appease me. I no longer want to soften up and got deceived. Those few months I spent with him would have beenenough for me to see everythingthat I blamed myself for being so stupid and blinded. Too blinded because I did not see him through the lamb's cloak that he was wearing all along.He could have won an Oscar award for being so good at acting. Who would have thought that behind his gentle eyes, the real orbs of a wolf were lurking? And because I was too naive, I had become an easy prey.Hazel and Philip followed me to the car. I locked the door to the passenger's side, thinking that Sean might follow and beg for forgiveness.To my relief, he did not. I saw him standing beside his mother, who was too innocent of his wickedness. She waved her hand at us, even if I didn't take a look at her before I left.Fixing my eyes at him through the side mirror, I.watched him hugging hi

I could tell Sean’s eyes on me, but I never glanced at him, even when he turned to leave. The lawyer then showed me documents that were all dated a few monthsago, precisely the same month when Sean and I met at the emergency room. My hands then trembled as I picked up one of those thick sheets. “Why are all these in my name?” I asked; the sound of my racing heartbeats was louder than my breathing.“Yes. It’s because Mr. Grey had transferred the ownership of everything that Sir Thomas lefthim to your name.”“Just when?” All ofa sudden, my voice wouldn’t almost come out from my throat.“A few weeks before you were appointed as the new president of the hospital.”I scanned those other pages, and my eyes flew wide when something caught my attention.“Laminae Inc., and Thomas and Albert Grey Medical Center are also in my name?”"Of course

"Red, please hang on. The old man I adore so much is your grandfather. He adopted me and left everything to me. You know what, when he learned about you, he asked me to look for you and marry you."I sat abruptly from my bed. I had already dreamed about this before but I could not remember when. Sean was crying here while talking to me, and the dream seemed so real in my mind.Why am I dreaming about this? What does this dream imply?Then, I recalled that emotional moment he had when I got bitten by the Bronca bug. And I remembered that it was the time I dreamed about this. I got up from my bed and wentto the terrace. The freezing temperature outside constricted my pores in a couple of seconds but somehow, it chilled my heart from the flaming soreness it suffered.It was still three in the morning, but sleep had eluded me. I took a shower and changed into a business attire that I concealed through a thick trenchcoat. The climate

"You don't have to take your mother to your hometown. Her doctor is here, and she's used to the place. And besides, I have changed my mind. I am no longer taking back this place from you," I replied, but I looked away. I chose to ignore his statement about our status and our child."Thank you, dear, but we have never lived in your family'shouse, anyway. Mother only agreed to live close to Sir Thomas if he would sell a parcel of this residential lot to us by installment. And she has papers for that."I turned pale. That's maybe why thehouse was at the end of the fence, too far away from the main building. If it were not for thebeautiful landscape connecting to the front lawn garden, I would have thought this house did not belong to grandpa's property. I almost got tempted to believe that Sean and his mom were never after my family's wealth, but anger had already seeped into my core. The pain of his betrayal with Calla had dominated my

I entered the room with my heartbeats already on my throat. Gathering the kind of courage I never knew before, I wore a half-smile on my lips as I beat the board of directors' intimidating stares with my outward confidence. I realize how silly I was. The things these people do were beyond my comprehension. Give me surgical blades and other sets; I might have the full confidence to cut into a human's head and solve a problem, but not with these kinds of people who could kill you with their lethal gaze.The lawyer stood up while I was yet halfway to my seat. He bowed down with a polite smile, and I got surprised. It was only yesterday when he got so angry that he looked like a beast, ready to devour me."Good morning, Dr. Grey!" he said while ushering me to my seat. He then pulled a chair next to him and waited for me to settle down before he left.He then stood at the edge of the long table and cleared his throat before he spoke.
