Take Over

The conference room at the White Medical Center was dense with confusion as they all turned to the person Liora pointed to.Lily also turned to be sure she was not the one Liora had just pointed out.“You mean her?” Luke asked, looking at Lily with raised brows.“Me?” Lily asked, shocked too.“Yes, Lily knows Dr. Athena; I’m very sure she would be glad to reach out to the doctor on our behalf." Liora said, her lips pulling up in a mischievous smile.“Oh, I do?” Lily asked before seeing Liora give her the eye.The eye was a small, unnoticeable twitch of the lower right eyelid, and a small nod.“Of course,” Liora stated, rubbing her hands together.Lily coughed slightly, brushed her hair back, and smiled at everyone as she tried to clear her throat and gather her thoughts.Finally, Lily said, “Oh, hummm, of course, I’m sure that won’t be a problem.”“How do you know the doctor? Is the doctor in New York?” Luke asked, his eyes narrowed in suspicion.“I doubt that should be your concern n

A Standby

In the conference room, Liora looked at the tablet Ian passed over to her.“There isn’t really much to be gathered except we get a look at the medical records.” Ian stated.“What are you both looking for?” Lily asked.“I need to get information on who Mr. Cavanade is and how it can benefit the White Medical Center.” Liora stated.“If the surgery has been scheduled for tomorrow, then we should request the medical records.” Lily stated.“Wait, what? The surgery is tomorrow?” Ian asked in shock.He looked from Lily, who only shrugged in response, to Liora, who had a contented look on her face.“You’re kidding, right?” Ian asked again.“No, I’m not, and I need you two to cover for me.” Liora muttered.“How in God’s name are you planning to perform a surgery tomorrow on a patient you have no information about?” Ian asked, almost shouting.“I know you’re really good, Liora, and even great when you put on your secret armor, but then this is too risky.” Lily agreed.“There is nothing to be wo

Right Back

The next day, the skies were so clear that it had Liora thinking nature was aligning for her perfectly.“Mom!” Amelia shouted, running into her room.“My baby girl, you’re up early.” Liora said softly, rubbing her eyes as Amelia jumped on her bed.“Yes, Aunt Betty promised us some games today.” Amelia grinned.Liora smiled as she rolled out of bed, stood up, and yawned. The twins had spent their day with Betty White the day before.She knew she needed to get things sorted for them before she got busier.“When are we going, Mom?" Amelia asked.“Very soon, sweetheart. Go check on Lily and make sure Adrian is up too.” Liora instructed.“Okay,” Amelia replied, and hurried out of the room.The cabin was cozy, almost like they were in the countryside. A row of trees lined the perimeter of the cabin, separating it from the other cabins.“It’s all going to work out.” Liora mumbled as she walked into the restroom.There were four rooms in the cabin and a big dining and parlor area downstairs.

The File

The hospital’s reception was fast filling up, almost like the whole city was aware a mystery doctor was coming to the White Medical Center.Amelia’s small eyes turned in the direction her brother pointed in.“It’s him,” Adrian muttered in surprise.“Who?” Amelia asked, not sure of what her brother was saying.“The handsome man from the airport.” Adrian said, sounding excited.“I can't see him," Amelia pouted.“See!” Adrian shouted, still pointing.At that moment, a group of people walked into the hospital, making the reception area more crowded.“I did not see anybody, Adrian.” Amelia said,“He is there; come, I will…” Adrian said, standing up and pulling his sister.“Mom said we should not talk to strangers.” Amelia refused.Adrian looked over, and by the time the crowd cleared, the stranger was no longer there.He sat down beside his sister again, looking unhappy, and folded his small hand on his chest.“I’m going to find him.” Adrian stated in determination.“Why?” Amelia asked.“S

Neutral Ground

Liora looked up from her phone and said, “There is going to be a department-wide briefing on the procedure of the surgery for approval.”“What? They do that here?” Ian asked, looking surprised."Apparently they do, if it’s a major surgery.” Liora mumbled.She had no idea that the White Medical Center held a surgery briefing before the surgery.“When is it holding?” Lily asked.“In two hours.” Liora muttered.“What about the patient? Is he in the hospital now?” Ian asked.“I believe so, and we need to go see him after the briefing.” Liora stated, partly distracted by her thoughts.“What are we going to do about the briefing, especially with your famous temper when it comes to that?” Lily asked out loud.Liora smiled and then snapped her fingers and stood up suddenly as she said, “Here is what we are going to do.”When they stepped out of Betty’s office two hours later, their steps were laced with confidence.The lecture room was on the last floor of the building; apparently every docto

Your Call

Liora leaned forward, her eyes fixed on Luke as everyone turned to look at her.“I believe we can spare a few seconds.” Liora said into the mic, diffusing the tension in the room.“Wow, I didn’t see that coming,” Ian said in relief.“Well, let's hope it stays that way throughout." Lily muttered.After a few more seconds of staring at each other, Fiona took her seat with the rest of Luke’s team while Luke walked to the podium with Travis and Felix.The tension in the room was thick, everyone on the edge of their seat, all with a question in their mind."Why was Felix Lawson, one of the best surgeons in New York, here in the room?""Who exactly would be performing the surgery?""Where is the acclaimed Dr. Athena?"The murmurs filled the room as they all waited for an explanation.“For today’s surgery, I have brought in Dr. Felix Lawson as an external consulting surgeon.” Luke started.Liora’s eyes narrowed at that, her eyes turning slowly to look at Luke as her hands folded into a fist

Famous Doctor

The silence in the room was heavy as everyone waited for Scott to speak. The silent murmurs in the room had died down so everyone could hear his words.“I would like to have the room alone with the team," Scott said.Fiona coughed slightly as she stood up to address the room. “Well, that brings us to the end of the briefing. We all can return to work while the management stays behind.”There were some curious murmurs as the rest of the residents and doctors filed out of the lecture room.“Looks like Mr. Cavanade is all for the procedure.” Lily whispered to Ian.“I hope so.” Ian responded.“Mr. Lawson, you would have to wait outside; I would be there in a few seconds to give you some update.” Luke said quietly to Felix.“Sure,” Felix responded as he stood up.Travis stood up slowly, his eyes still on Liora for a few seconds before turning to follow Felix out of the room.“What do you think?” Travis asked as soon as they were out of the door.“I don’t know Dr. Athena yet, but for Liora,

No Show

Liora's face became unreadable as she asked, "Because of what?""Your mother," Ellen says, her eyes narrowed."Don't you dare!" Liora snapped, her hands balled into a fist at her side."I knew it; if you think you're going to take this away from me that easily, you're joking. I'm going to fight you with all that I have, Liora." Ellen swore.Liora closed her eyes briefly to calm herself, then took a step towards her, leaned down, and said, “You don’t want to fight me now, Ellen; I’m not the Liora you knew five years ago.”Ellen laughed in mockery as she responded, “What can you do? Simply because you’re rumored to know Dr. Athena, you think you’re famous?”“Oh, but I do know her,” Liora whispered.“That’s a lie, and I’m going to do all that’s in my power to ensure everyone finds out the fraud that you are.” Ellen muttered.“By all means, darling, you can enlist the help of your mother while you’re at it.” Liora mocked.Ellen’s eyes turned red as Liora walked past her, hitting her shoul

Good Idea

There was a few seconds' pause before Lily broke this silence.“This way, Dr. Athena,” she said.“Looks like the long-awaited guest has finally arrived.” Travis muttered under his breath.The atmosphere in the theater shifted as the doctor walked over to her position as the head of the surgery.“Are you saying that is Dr. Athena?” Luke asked in shock.“Looks like it is,” Felix said in amusement.Finally the day had come when they all could see that the myth was actually true and the doctor did exist.“She is the one.” Travis muttered, standing up to walk closer to the glass.She moved with agility, like the whole of her body was in the process with her.“What is she doing?” Fiona muttered, standing up too.“The first step in the process is the cortical mapping, but the team had already done the baseline mapping. I guess she is trying to narrow the safe corridor to stimulate the brain surface to identify speech and motor function.” Felix found himself responding unconsciously as he sto

Your Offer

The pause was long as they waited for the doctor to respond.She stood there, staring at them one after the other and shaking her head in the negative.“Thank you so much for coming to our rescue.” Fiona said, smiling at the masked doctor.The doctor nodded, stretching her hand to ask for a path to pass through.“Doesn’t look like the doctor wants to speak with anyone.” Felix stated.“Dr. Athena, can you spare me ten minutes of your time?” Travis asked.The doctor shook her head still while still pointing for a path to pass through.“Looks like the doctor doesn’t want to speak with you.” Scott stated, staring at Travis.This was no time to focus on Scott, so Travis kept his cool. Scott Cavanade had been his rival for the longest time, so he knew exactly what he was trying to do.“Why won’t you speak? Are you mute?” Luke asked in irritation.“Let her pass,” Travis said suddenly.“Yes…we, wait, what?” Felix asked, shocked that Travis would say that.“That’s the only way to gain her trus
