Lahat ng Kabanata ng Doctor, Please Be My Wife Again: Kabanata 211 - Kabanata 220

(Delvin's POV)My eyes slowly fluttered open. For a brief moment, everything around me was white. Was I... dead? Had I made it to heaven?Then a soft sound reached my ears. Someone was crying.I frowned slightly.That couldn't be right.There was no crying in heaven. If someone was crying... then where was I? Hell?I slowly turned my head toward the sound.My mum was sitting beside my bed. Her face was buried in her hands as quiet sobs escaped her lips.She hadn't noticed I was awake yet.I frowned again and slowly looked around the room.An IV drip was connected to my wrist, the smell of medicine filled the air.Everything suddenly felt familiar. I'd been here before.A hospital. I was in a hospital."Mum..." I whispered weakly.Her sobbing stopped instantly, and she slowly raised her head.The moment her eyes met mine, they widened with relief."Oh, my poor boy..." she cried and hurried to my bedside. "Thank God you're awake."She cupped my face with trembling hands, tears rolling

(Delvin's POV)"Tell me," I said coldly into the phone."Sir, we found information about him," the person on the other end said urgently.I clenched my jaw, my eyes burning as I struggled to stay calm."He's currently at Sky Hotel, and his flight out of the country has already been booked. His departure is in three hours," he continued.He was leaving?A bitter smile tugged at the corner of my lips.Did he really think he could escape after everything he had done? After planning such a deadly accident for Aliana and me?I might not have been this angry if I had been the only one involved.After all, he had tried to kill me before.But the moment he put Aliana's life in danger... He crossed the line.The phone conversation we had before the accident had been recorded.The security guard he bribed to betray me and cut the car's brakes had also confessed that Simon was the one who gave him the order.Not only did he confess...He also had a video of the two of them meeting and discussing

(Fabian's POV)I let out a quiet sigh and dropped the phone back onto my desk."They can go ahead and expose the truth," I said calmly.I wasn't even a bit bothered by the threat. There was nothing I wanted more than for the truth to come out.Maybe then, Dad would finally care more about his children than his already damaged reputation."What did you just say?" he muttered through clenched teeth."Do they really think they can get Steve out of jail with this cheap blackmail?" I asked with a bitter chuckle."They should go ahead and do their worst. Steve isn't going to walk free without answering for his crimes."He had already committed too many.And if he was released, who knew how many more crimes he would commit? Who knew who else he might try to hurt? Maybe even Aliana again.I didn't know why, but a part of me had always wanted to protect her, even though I already knew nothing could ever happen between us anymore.Still, there was an invisible bond between us that could never b

(Fabian's POV)"How dare you send me that kind of message?" Dad demanded.I knew exactly what this was about and why he had immediately demanded to see her.The threats. The fear of being exposed. The reason he had paid her off wasn't because he wanted to keep peace in the family. It was because he was terrified that people would discover the truth."You're keeping my son in jail. Of course, I need to do something," she said calmly, completely unbothered. "Even if it means exposing the truth."Dad's expression faltered for a brief moment. She had struck the exact place he hated the most.But he quickly recovered. He pointed an angry finger at her, his chest rising and falling heavily with rage."I dare you to do that and see exactly what happens to people who cross me," Dad fumed."Why?" she asked casually, as if his threat meant nothing to her. "Are you ashamed of your ugly, dirty secret?"Dad's jaw tightened, but he said nothing.He knew the truth. The fear of being exposed was pro

(Fabian's POV)Dad remained silent throughout our journey away from the lounge.His eyes stayed fixed downward. He didn't raise his head even once to look at me.He was probably too ashamed to meet my eyes. Maybe he was disappointed in himself, knowing that I had ended up being the one who stood up for him.A father was supposed to protect his children. But somehow, I was the one protecting him."Drive me home first," Dad finally said, his voice coming out small and weak.I stared at him. He wasn't going to the office?After everything that had happened, he was probably no longer in the mood to deal with work.The driver nodded slightly and turned the car toward the family mansion.After a short while, we arrived at the house.Dad reached for the car handle, but he suddenly paused.His hand hovered over the door for a moment, as if he was struggling with something.Then, quietly, he turned back and finally looked at me.For the first time since we left the lounge, our eyes met.His ey
