“If I am not prying, may I ask why you are going to the hospital?” Chris who was feeling suffocated due to the silence inside the car, finally spoke trying to liven the atmosphere inside the car. ‘You are definitely already prying when you said this!’ Roy commented inside his heart. He would have loved to shout it to the man but he refrained from doing so since his boss had asked him to be polite and kind to this fucking piece of shit. “I am going to meet my  wife,” Levian answered in a professional manner but he did not forget to emphasize the wifey part. No one had expected him to answer, however, Levian was more than happy to keep him company and to Roy’s surprise, he answered the question happily.  “What really?” Roy was the one to get shocked at this news. Weren’t they going to meet the doctor called as Sherry Lona to do some business deals? ‘Follow the script stupid.’ Levian gestured with his eyes.

Di Di Di DiHearing the ringing of the phone, Sherry who was about to doze off on the couch was startled awake. Wiping away the thin layer of sweat on her forehead, she looked at the telephone on her walking table.She stood up from the couch in a swift motion and  went to grab the telephone.“Dr. Sherry speaking.” She picked up the phone and responded to the call in a calm tone.It was calm to the extent of sending chills down the spine of the staff lady who was on the other side of the phone.“Umm, so-rry for disturbing your rest Dr. Sherry.” The staff stuttered a little and shot a piercing glance at Levian who despite seeing it just acted innocent and harmless.The staff lady: “…..” This is all clearly for you!!“Yes, I am listening.” Sherry answered back when no one spoke from the other side.“Huh..Ohh.” She exclaimed and turned her attention to the cal

Chris finally snapped back to reality after he had reached the lobby of the hospital from the parking lot. Taking one last look at his hand which held the business card of Levian Smith, he gulped down the saliva that had been stuck on his throat all this time. He put the card inside his wallet with great care as if it was a big treasure. ‘I will need to pay visit to sir Levian and his wife with fruits and flowers,’ he smiled uncannily as he planned to make a good impression of himself on Levian Smith, the only guy who was powerful enough to help him if he really did mess up things. ‘If things do not go well with Sherry, I can….hehehe,’ “Excuse me sir,” a voice called out to him, drawing away his attention from his beautiful dream to the dull reality. His body shivered a little when a hand tapped on his shoulder out of nowhere. He quickly turned around and saw an old lady with a mop looking at him. ‘It’s the janitor lady,’ he fr

“Thank you for waiting,” a tired voice called out to the two men who were talking in the parking lot.“Mr. Smith,” Sherry forced a smile as she gazed at Levian who was standing as he waited for her. She looked at Roy and also managed to smile at him with a slight bow.Levian said nothing as he moved his gaze all over her face as if searching for something. Seeing that she was fine, he finally exhaled out a sigh of relief. He had been worried sick about her going back there on her own.He had seen Chris, that hateful man loitering around the reception area from the corner of his eyes when they were returning from her office. He would have loved to stop her from going but he did not want to interfere in her own personal matters.It was hot in the parking lot even though it was already evening. Sherry lifted up all the loose strands of her hair from around her neck and twisted them around her bun which was already getting messy.

Chapter 30What are you going to do now?! Inconsiderate boss!!’ Roy panicked in his heart seeing that his boss was once again advancing to invade the private space of the lady. Of course, he did not have the guts to say that to his face. He still valued his life and his job.Levian stopped a few steps away from Sherry, whose back was turned to him. She was neither crying nor she was showing any sign of anguish and pain. Seeing her sit there motionless like that made Levian feel bitter in his heart.“Stand up-”“I know.”A hoarse voice finally spoke up. It was Sherry who still was bowing down her head. She was looking down at the face on her lap but the expression on her eyes was hidden away by the shadow of her disheveled hair.“I know she is dead, and I also know that I would catch cold if I keep on staying here,” Sherry said without much emotion. The fact that her voice was absolutely normal was th
