Semua Bab To Be Yours Again: Bab 31 - Bab 40

Jenny knew that Alec was talking to her, but how dare he use that tone and those interrogative words."So you can be with any man out there except for me? Answer me," he demanded, his voice cold, bearing a trace of fury.Jenny burst into laughter. She looked at Alec with interest. "Are you questioning me? Who are you to do that, exactly?"Alec was silent."Is it because you're so used to being the one in power? Is that why you're so authoritative with everyone? What a pity. I'm not your underling; I don't have to answer you."As she finished speaking, the elevator arrived. Jenny walked right in, not wishing to linger around Alec. However, he refused to let it go and went in after her.Jenny kept a distance between herself and Alec. Neither of them spoke. The air around them was stifling.Just when she thought the silence would accompany them home, Alec spoke. "I'm sorry. I sounded harsh, but I was only worried about you. Pearson is not all he seems. He has reasons for being so c

"Dr. Walter!" Alec gnashed his teeth.Jenny looked nonchalant. She really wished to see him panic, but as a doctor, she couldn't do that to a patient.Yes, a patient. In her eyes, Alec was a patient.No one would pass out because they were afraid of the dark unless they had severe psychological issues or had experienced something that would make them react negatively to the dark."I was joking." Jenny put the phone back and said righteously, "Although I don't like you, I'm not the type to rub salt in someone's wound."Alec cradled the phone in his hands and looked at her. "You've admitted that you don't like me.""Yeah. There's nothing much to admit." In the darkness, with no one around, they began to talk."Why?" Alec asked. "I don't remember hurting you.""You've hurt me tons of times." Jenny shot him a look. He wouldn't be reacting this way if he knew that it was his ex-wife in the elevator with him.Alec frowned. He stared at Jenny. "Such as?""Such as the Walkers." Jenny

The next day at Parrington Hospital, Jenny received a phone call from Zack right after completing a surgery."You're being investigated," he said. "They're pretty good. You can't hide your whereabouts in the country for much longer."Jenny was intrigued. "It's okay, Zack. So what if they find out about me? There are no skeletons in my closet.""I thought you didn't want Alec to find out," Zack said playfully.Jenny smiled nonchalantly. "I don't really care if he does. And if he doesn't ask, I won't bring it up." Based on Zack's words, she suspected that it was Alec who was investigating her. It was possible."Are you busy lately? You seem to have surgery to perform every day," Zack said. He wasn't in the country, so he wasn't caught up with Jenny."Yeah, but it's fine. It prevents me from overthinking."They chatted for a little while longer before saying their goodbyes. Jenny was about to carry on with her work, but someone knocked on her door.The person walked in quickly. Sh

Jenny thought that the woman before her was strange. Her son was perfectly fine, but she insisted on getting him surgery. It was weird in every way.At this moment, a small warm hand pulled at her. Jenny turned to see that it was the teenager on the bed. She asked patiently, "What's wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable?""I don't want to have surgery," he said softly, as if afraid that his mother would hear.Jenny's eyes darkened. There was something else afoot, but her phone rang before she could say anything else. It was a call from the operating room.She instantly felt a headache coming."Please do the other patient's surgery, Dr. Walter. I will handle this," the doctor said.Jenny looked at the patient's family, who were crowded around the door, and Joey, who was on the bed. "Don't worry. You don't need to have one," she assured him. "Just listen to this doctor, and he will treat you.""Okay." Joey nodded. He seemed relieved that he didn't need surgery.After telling the docto

"What's wrong?" A strong sense of unease washed over Jenny. Her heartbeat quickened."Something's happened to that boy from this afternoon." Morgan was anxious. "After you left, his mother insisted on switching hospitals. We had no choice but to agree. We thought it was just a mild concussion, so it wouldn't matter if they went to another hospital. But then the emergency center received a call saying that there was a patient in a private hospital with massive head bleeding. We asked about the patient and learned that it was the boy. His mother brought him to a private hospital for surgery!"Jenny's expression shifted. She asked hurriedly, "Where is he?""He's still on the way here. The paramedics in the ambulance say it's really serious and that we must be prepared. I'm here to get you," Morgan said.Jenny had no time to figure out what their underlying intention was. "Get the Blood Transfusion Unit to prepare blood bags and tell everyone to get ready," she ordered Morgan. "The mom
